Diner. Hiro's asking if Charlie's sure she's okay, and she says she is. Sylar's finally eating the pancakes he ordered. He says he's sorry to interrupt this Hallmark moment, but he and Hiro had a deal. Now he wants to know everything he knows. This is the part where Hiro needs to negotiate to have Sylar fix his own tumor, right? But, no, he just tells Sylar that he'll tell him how he dies: "Alone. I'm sorry." Sylar wonders what the hell that's supposed to mean, and Hiro tells him he'll collect a lot of powers and become strong, but in the end, it won't matter because they all gather to stop him and he's alone. "No one will mourn your death. No one will shed a tear. No one." Hiro wishes he could change fate, but Sylar must go on his path. He sends him back to the alley (so, Hiro can control this power, or he can't? This episode isn't making that very clear), where the cheerleaders are running by again. Sylar puts on his baseball cap and heads toward them with a smirk. I am confused as to whether Hiro actually thinks Sylar is dead. It's not possible that he didn't see him or know that he didn't die in the entire last two seasons, is it? I realize he's been off in his own times and worlds a lot, but didn't he know that Sylar survived the first season finale?
