By Erin | Season 2 | Episode 9 | Aired on 2007.11.19
Sure enough, just seconds after Claire makes it into her father's arms and he shoves her to West, nodding at him to head for the skies, Elle sparks through her bindings and shoots a few bolts up at the kids. They immediately fall to the ground, Claire cushioning the fall so that she can save West and regenerate herself. Elle gets ready to shoot some more bolts Bennet's way, but he shoots her in the right arm before she can aim. Tobby calls out for his daughter and runs to her. Bennet walks toward them, saying, "No matter what I do, I'll always be running. But if you die, [Tobby]? The Company dies with you." He takes aim as Claire and West come to behind him. Mohinder begs Bennet not to do this, but his mind's made up: Tobby has to die. He cocks the gun and a shot rings out, only...it's come from Mohinder's gun. Bennet's left lens shatters as the bullet goes directly into his eye and he goes down. Claire screams, "Dad!," and runs toward him in slow motion as West tries to stop her from getting there. He pulls her away, embracing her, and in a final tableau, it's clear that after all of Bennet's efforts, he couldn't avoid making the Death Painting come to life. Everyone, including Tobby, looks shattered. West flies off with Claire as Mohinder looks down at what he's just done.
