Angela is praying when Peter comes back with the tea. Instead of rejoining her, however, he looks up at the stained-glass image of Christ in front of him, lights a votive candle in the traditional Catholic way, and gives him a message of his own, expressing his frustration that people like him are on the run and dying and he can't seem to help them. "Do you even care? What you put people through?" He adds that he's tired of fighting and is angry with his entire family, and God as well. "Please, just show up." It's some of the better acting Milo has done on the show, understated while still urgent. Maybe he gets distracted when other people are actually in the scene. A wind then blows his prayer candle out, and he looks back and sees that some agents have entered that church. He doesn't even take the time to look back at the glass and be like, "Dude, seriously?" which I think shows commendable restraint. Instead, while the agents are momentarily distracted by a priest asking what the hell (pardon my language, Father!) they're doing, Peter and Angela hustle into two adjoining confessional booths. I wonder exactly how many rosaries and Hail Marys they'll commit to saying if God will just get them out of this one.
Sylar's searching Odo's apartment for clues as Danko once again looks like he could use twice the recommended daily dosage of Aleve, not that I blame him. While Sylar roots around, he babbles that Danko's a shapeshifter, too, as he has nothing in his apartment to define him. I feel undefined at the moment as well, but that could be because my brain is leaking out my ears in protest of how boring this speech is. Not that the episode as a whole is that much better. Sylar then figures out from Odo's wardrobe and random photographs that he's playing roles that give him power, because that enables him to screw a lot of hot women. That's not my thing, but at least there's a motivation in this storyline with which I can follow along. They then find matchbooks for an establishment called "Garden Of Eden," where they suppose he trolls for said hot women, and head out.
