And then he pushes Peter over the side of the building.
Oh, that is too awesome.
Peter drops like a stone, clearly not remembering how to fly. He manages to turn around in mid-air, though, so that when he finally does crash into the cab that Isaac painted, he lands on his ass instead of his face. We thank him for that. The roof of the cab implodes with the impact of Peter's fall. He looks out for the count. Viewed from above, we see that he has not only landed on a cab, but on an advertisement for what might be a samurai exhibit at a museum or something. Nice little tie-in there. Peter slowly comes to and sees a big piece of metal sticking out of his chest. He pushes himself off the cab, sliding his body off the metal rod with a loud groan. (Dirty!) He tumbles off the cab and catches his breath. He looks up at the building and realizes just how tall it is and what he's just done. "Son of a bitch," he gasps. Indeed.
Commercials.
"Not quite what I was expecting," says Claude, looking at Peter slumped against the wrecked cab, "but hope for the flowers yet!" Peter launches himself at Claude and shoves him up against a wall. "You threw me... OFF OF A THIRTY STORY BUILDING! If I didn't regenerate, I'd be dead!" Peter grunts at him. Claude just giggles. "Well, you coulda flown!" Hee. "Listen, if you hadn't worked this one out," says Claude, "you'd have been hopeless anyway, and I'd have had to diffuse the biggest bomb ever." Peter steps back and Claude tells him he cleared his mind and called out his power. "You know, before I hit the ground," says Peter, "when I knew what was about to happen, I had this flash... in my head, of this girl that I met in Texas." Careful, Peter -- that "girl" might be related to you in a second here. Watch how you think about her.
"This cheerleader," he continues, "she could heal herself. Oh, gosh, she's this sweet kid. Sad little smile, and she just... " Suddenly, Peter seems to realize something. "You were wrong," he says. "I don't have to cut her out! I have to remember her! How--how she made me feel! That's how I... " Peter's hands start disappearing. Then there's a weird loud buzzing sound and Peter's hand goes to his head as he groans in pain. Then Isaac's cloudy future eyes show up. "Oh god!" Peter shouts. "It's happening! I'm losing it!" Fire shows up in his eyes. Peter's overloading. He's about to blow! Whap! Claude decks Peter with a solid right hook and Peter hits the pavement. Heh. "Well, it's a start," he says, standing over Peter's fallen body. Hee. I can think of several other Heroes who might benefit from Claude's form of "education." Matt? I'M LOOKING AT YOU.
