Casa de Bennet. Bennet grabs his coat and his keys and a folded piece of paper; he's about to leave when Mrs. Bennet appears and asks where he's going. He says that he can't just wait around and that he needs to do something. He opens the front door, and West swoops down and carts him into the air. As they shoot through the sky, West taunts Bennet by asking whether he remembers him at all. Bennet struggles in his arms, but I'd recommend NOT struggling, there, Noah, if you don't want to, I don't know, plummet to the damn ground. West tells him that he doesn't have superstrength, so there's only so long he can hold onto him; he demands some answers, but when Bennet starts explaining why they took him all those years ago, West tells him that those aren't the answers he's looking for. He wants to know about Claire, whether she was working with Bennet, and whether she ever really cared about him at all. Bennet tells West the truth: Claire lied to her father about West's existence, so he's guessing that West was pretty important to her. They tumble to the ground, and Bennet's up and on top of West faster than you can say "NAMBLA." Bennet gruffs into West's ear that they're taking Claire and leaving town, and that West is going to convince Claire that it's the right thing to do.
Just then, Bennet's phone rings. It's Mohinder, telling him that Molly's located West at the corner of Verbena and Palm. Bennet looks up and sees that they're at the corner of Ocean and 4th, so he knows now that Mohinder's up to something. You know, seeing as he's actually sitting on top of poor West right this minute. Mohinder has no clue about this, so he just continues to lie, telling Bennet that he'd better get to the location quickly, since he's not sure how long West will be there. Bennet says he'll be right there and hangs up. He gets up off West, who asks what's going on. "Claire's in danger," says Bennet. "I need your help." West is like, "Hey, the first thing I do when someone tackles me to the ground is wonder, 'How on earth can I help him?'"
Superheroes Superhigh. Claire's at cheerleading practice when she gets called off the field by her coach, who introduces her to Tobby, saying he's from the board of education and wants to talk to her about the cheertator incident. He asks Claire to walk with him, pretending to care about underage drinking and all that, but what he really wants to do is scare the living bejesus out of Claire by addressing her by her real last name. She runs off the field toward home as Tobby glowers after her.
