The Company. Mohinder and Tobby are watching some entertaining blood videos on a computer screen. Mohinder declares that Claire's blood has fortified his antibodies, so now they're strong enough to defeat the mutated virus. Tobby congratulates him. Mohinder reminds him that he promised The Company's viral research would end. "In working up this cure," he says, "I've been pouring over records that reveal the full extent of your program." "Then you of all people should understand what it would mean to find a safe way to remove the abilities of dangerous individuals," says Tobby. Mohinder reaches behind him and grabs a file. "Here!" he says, passing it to Tobby. "Strain 138. If even the smallest amount were released, it would wipe out all of human civilization." Tobby cursorily looks at the file, and then says that the strain is locked away safely in Texas and that The Company is vigilant about security. Mohinder's like, "Yeah, so I infiltrated your organization in order to take it the hell down and you had no goddamned idea -- so much for security!" "What can I do for you?" asks Tobby, at his wit's end. Mohinder turns. "Help me hunt down every strain of virus within this company and destroy them." Tobby nods, but I don't think he's actually agreeing to this.
New Orleans. A cell phone buzzes on a bedside table. A hand reaches for it, and it's Niki. She answers and it's Mohinder on the line, telling her that he's found a cure for her. He's coming on the next flight. "Your nightmare's over," he says. "I don't know what to say, Doctor! Thank you!" She immediately hangs up and goes to find Micah to tell him the good news. Unfortunately, he's across town with Monica, looking over at the house of the kids who took his pack. Micah's doing something with what looks to be a cell phone, but I can't be sure. Whatever it is, it lets him know that no one's home at the moment and Monica should be fine to break in.
He asks if she knows how to get up into the house yet, and she just says, "Almost," and looks at the iPod in her hand. It's showing a scene of a guy climbing up a porch, and she watches as the scene replays itself on her glowing eyeballs. It looks like the guy's actually performing parkour, but I can't be sure. Monica watches the video and goes, "Got it. I just wish it wasn't so bright -- I don't want people thinking I'm robbing the place!" Micah looks up at the street light and puts his hand on the surface of it. He blinks his eyes a bit, and the lights go out on the entire street. "How did you do that?" asks Monica. "I told the lights I need them to be out for awhile," says Micah. Aw. He politely asks the lights to go out, and they do. His superpower is as sweet as he is!
Monica pulls her hood up over her head, and Micah looks at her in awe. "What?" "You're Saint Joan!" "You really gotta stop reading those comic books!" Hee. She's totally Saint Joan, though. She tells him to stay there, she'll be right back. She runs across the street, vaults over the fence, climbs up onto the balcony, and makes it into the house. It's an impressive series of moves. She turns on her flashlight and finds Micah's pack immediately. But a look inside it reveals that it's empty. Just then, down on the street, headlights appear. Micah sees them and hides. It's the gang that lives in the house. Inside, Monica hears the cars approaching and looks up in fear. She looks back down and sees the comic books and Micah's medal on the floor. She gathers them up and shoves them into the backpack.
