So Ando slips in it and gets this "oh shit" look on his face and, sure enough, Sylar's right behind him, looking all evil and stuff. Ando spins around and tries to use his sword, but Sylar just TK's it out of his hands and across the room. Sylar grabs him by the neck and TK's him up against the opposite wall. Ando chokes. Sylar looks amused as he picks up The Last Comic that fell out of Ando's jacket. "A comic book that predicts the future," sneers Sylar. "What will they think of next?" He pages through it and laughs as he comes across the final panel of him being stabbed by Hiro. He's like, "Oh, sure -- this is how I'm going to die? At the hands of a silly little anime character? I don't THINK so!" Ando's like, "Hiro's not silly! He's cute! Also? YOU CAN'T TAKE MY BRAIN." Sylar's like, "Oh, PLEASE. Like I want YOUR BRAIN. Do you do anything other than run around after your little buddy? No? No powers? KEEP YOUR BRAIN." Heh. Also? I love the way Zachary Quinto says "Braaaaaain." He's totally shouting out to us, y'all.
Sylar demands to know where Peter Petrelli is, but Ando has no idea. So Sylar starts TK-ing him somewhere on his body -- I really have no idea what he's doing, but Ando looks increasingly uncomfortable, whatever it is. Hiro shows up just then and, even though his father gave him a sword, he has to pick up the sword Sylar flung across the room. I...don't know. Hiro orders Sylar to let Ando go and Sylar just turns. "I don't think I'm going to," he says in his best serial killer drawl. "All you have to do is stop time before I slit his throat. Can you do that little trick?" Hiro lowers his sword and there's a pause. Then he blinks, disappears, and reappears next to Ando. He blinks again and they both disappear. Sylar's like, "DAMMIT! Foiled again! If it weren't for those pesky kids!"
Uch. Time to go back to Niki and the Neverending Search for Micah. She tries a bunch of doors and finally comes across one that's ajar. She enters and there sits...Jessica, looking fabulous as always. Niki's confused. We're not, because we know it's Candice, but Niki's never been the sharpest tack in the pack, so she's thinking her alter ego has somehow separated from her. "Look what you did, Niki," trills Candessica. Niki looks around and sees Micah, face down on the floor. Candessica taunts Niki and calls her weak and useless and then she kicks her in the face.
