I know.

And it breaks my heart.

I love you, Dad.

This is Claire Bennett.

That was attempt number six.

It really does break my heart.

Please don't hurt me.

Please don't hurt me. Please don't hurt me. You are not supposed to be in here.

I didn't kill these people. Sawa did.

What?

Hello?

Nice to meet you. I love New York!

Mr. Isaac Mendez?

Hello?

Mr. Isaac?

Freeze! We got a live one here. No English, no passport, no American money,

ID.

How long ago did he do this? Yesterday.

Yesterday.

October 2. October 2, Nobel.

Today, November 8.

When evolution selects agents, it does so at a cost.

It makes demands in exchange for singularity. And you may be asked to do

something in your very nature.

Suddenly, the change in your life that should have been wonderful comes as a

betrayal.

It may seem cruel, but the goal is nothing short of self -preservation.

Survival.

So if our team wins, there'll be a celebratory bonfire where I need to

represent. So it might be late midnight.

On a school night?

A celebratory school night.

So is that the quarterback?

Who? The boy that you like right over there?

I don't like him.

I mean, he's a very nice boy, but... Yes, he's the quarterback.

If you really wanted to make me happy, you'd only date nerds.

But it worked out very well for your mother.

I love your glasses, Mr. Bennett.

Thank you, Jackie.

Rumor has it you're a local hero. Pulled a man out of a burning train pump. You

heard about that?

OMG, does everybody know?

It was on the news. You told half the school to set their T -votes.

It's going to be the cornerstone of my campaign for class president.

I'm running on a platform of moral, mental, and social advancement through

deeds.

What do you think?

I think I need to get something out of my locker.

Okay.

Claire.

Be careful, okay?

Machaka yo.

Yeah.

If we can prove that it's the truth,

will you come with us?

Oh no!

We have to leave now!

The girl's life is on our hands!

It'll work. We'll have the fundraiser here, not the ballroom. Makes me look

fiscally responsible.

Yes, it does. Pete, just the man I want to see.

I need to talk to him. What do you think? Red or blue?

I don't know. Blue?

I'm gonna go red.

President wears red.

So you're going to come tonight? You're going to break out the suit, have a

couple of drinks? Yeah. Rebuff the advance with my cute interns? Emily?

I'm going to be there. Listen, I tried it again.

Tried what?

What do you mean, what? What do you think that I mean? I tried to fly.

Would you keep your voice down?

You were there. Last night I could fly. This morning, nothing.

I nearly broke my neck trying. Well, that would have solved one of our

Yeah, so I went to the library to see if I could find anything on human flight.

I came across this amazing book.

Listen to this.

Genes determine obesity, blood pressure. Out of the 30 billion possibilities,

one might contain the potential for human flight. This guy knows what's

on.

Chandra Suresh. He's a genetics professor in India.

I called.

They said that he quit six months ago. They think he's here in New York. Okay,

we gotta find this guy. We got a more immediate problem, Peter. What?

It's this woman reporter.

She's poking around into why you jumped off the roof. Nathan, we flew.

Aren't you curious how this happened?

Yeah, I mean, I want answers just like everyone else, man. Just like you, okay?

But right now, today, I'm trying to find a way to put a spin on this so it

doesn't look like crazy runs in our family. I need to figure out why this is

happening to me. I've got an election to win and a family to feed, okay?

So, what do you want to tell that reporter?

I know one thing we can't tell her.

Truth.

I still have your dad's teeth.

Maybe I shouldn't.

Sorry.

After being attacked, every noise I hear... I'm sorry.

Well, this is macaroni and cheese.

It's what Americans eat when they want to commit suicide slowly.

Your dad said mine was the best he ever had, but he was from India.

Thank you. You're very kind.

You look like hell. When was the last time you slept?

Will this work?

I'm no closer to understanding my father's research.

Well, what about the program on your dad's computer? Didn't you say he

some code?

I thought he had.

But the algorithm, it's gibberish.

Not anybody who speaks gibberish.

The man with the horn -rimmed glasses.

Chased me around the world.

Madras, Manhattan, this very apartment looking for it.

But this isn't anything.

Well, then why would he build it?

Why? It was always this way with my father.

Every question met with another question. Never an answer.

Only why.

Then after he's dead.

Well, what about the map?

Map? The map is nothing until I can decipher the principle behind it. You

if I could find even one such person, it would validate everything he believed.

But I can't.

Your father had a lot of faith in you.

My father only cared about proving he was right.

He left his country, his family, chasing this insanity.

And now I'm wasting my life trying to prove him safe.

What does it get me?

Mohinder!

I'm sorry.

I'm so tired.

That's another question.

I don't know how else to explain this.

I heard a little girl call for help.

I went to her. That's all that happened. So you just waltzed right in, found a

kid hiding in a wall, then pulled the name Siler out of your ass when only a

handful of us know that name. It's like... It was like someone was talking

me, except it was in my head.

Did the voice tell you anything else?

They want you to do things?

Rob a store? Kill the president?

No.

It's more like I can hear people's thoughts.

Or something. I don't know.

Can you tell me what I'm thinking?

No, I really can't control this.

It just sort of happens.

Give it a shot, Karnak. I'm wide open.

You think I'm not?

Or stupid.

Great trick.

Stop wasting my time.

Compartment. You need this more than you do. You need this. Nobody believes in

me. Nobody believes in you.

Depends.

How do you like to work with the FBI?

What are you doing running off to an away game? That tape with all your

at bodily harm is still missing.

Yeah, well, if someone finds it, we'll just tell them there's some visual

effects. He could do it with his computer.

Can I get back to my life?

So that's it.

You're just going to go pump your pom -poms and pretend you're no different

any other girl on the squad?

Yes, actually.

But you are, Claire.

You are different. Don't you see that? Don't you see that none of this matters?

School spirit doesn't matter. Being a pretty blonde cheerleader doesn't

It's not who you are anymore.

Who am I?

So what? I can crawl through a wood chipper and live to tell about it.

That narrows my choices in life, to freak or guinea pig. In most cases,

What's wrong with wanting to be normal?

You should try it.

What are you doing here?

Door's open.

I think you have to get back to work. Your editor?

The comic book is late. You were taking them, weren't you?

Yes, I'm gonna sell in my gallery and with the money we can get you

out into rehab I'm not going into rehab I Found all your junk

drugs all of it Fleshed everything. How am I supposed to paint the future?

Nobody can paint the future. That's the drugs talking look around you at all

these paintings Every one of them had come true. Oh Does that include this big

one on the floor of New York going nuclear?

Yes

I don't know how, I don't know when, but... I have to stop it.

I don't want to lose you, Simone.

But if you don't believe in me, then you shouldn't be here.

Hi.

You think you can paint the future?

Faint one without me in it.

Hello.

I can't understand a word you're saying.

Stop calling me here. You've got the wrong number.

Wrong number.

Okay, who's that? I don't know!

The girl with the red ribbon on her head!

Go over there from here!

Yes!

Hi. How'd you sleep? Good.

Where are we?

On our way to grandma's house.

I do. Yes, you do.

Let her go on inside.

You look thin.

Look, I know what it's like to raise a boy on your own. To be stretched so far,

you wish you could be in two places at once. I get it.

But that boy needs more than you've been giving him.

He needs a steady hand and a stable environment. I can give him that.

Why? Because D .L. grew up to be such a model citizen?

My son, your husband, is a good man.

You recognize this?

I found it in the desert.

What's that supposed to be?

It belonged to one of the men that your son murdered.

I took it out of a grave.

You know that all of D .L.'s crew wore these.

D .L. wouldn't murder anybody.

Ever. Wrong. He robbed Linderman and got away with $2 million, and then he

killed his crew.

My son was framed.

And he'd be rotting in some prison if he hadn't escaped.

Besides, if D .L. had $2 million, honey, he'd be on some tropical island

someplace sitting out his years with Micah.

I want you out of my son's life.

Well, people in hell want ice water. It doesn't mean they're going to get it.

Molly, you have no idea what I am capable of.

You want to tell me why I'm still here? I'm not just going to follow you around.

I need you to talk to her. Find out what she knows.

Talk to who?

Molly Walker.

The little girl you found.

We're keeping her here where it's safe until we can figure out what to do with

her. She's been through a severe trauma. Both parents murdered right in front of

her. She hasn't said a word since we brought her here. Makes you think she's

going to talk to me?

Well, if you're really a mind reader, she won't need to.

Who is this Tyler? What's he doing?

He's the trail across a dozen.

All people impaled by household objects.

Bones broken. All without any traceable sign of physical contact.

But only some of them involve any mutilation of the head or neck, so that

don't see the connection.

But you think it's all him?

I think it's going to get a lot worse if someone doesn't go after him.

Mr. Tyler?

Hello?

What are you actually going to do if I live in there?

If I live with my father, I need to know why.

I suppose that would be too easy.

Let's go.

Now, all the others could be behind the door.

It's locked, and I'm kind of trying not to freak out now, so please let go.

Or we could just break in.

A little light reading before bed.

That map, the strings, it's exactly like your father's. Not exactly. That map

has more of them.

Tuttons more.

I know that guy. He's running for Congress.

His life may be in danger.

Okay, can we please go now?

Not yet.

Mohandas!

involved with keeping

her in a safe room down here

Remember me?

It's okay.

It's okay.

No one's going to hurt you.

How could he find me? That doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.

You're safe now.

I don't know, but you called me from the future, didn't you? Yeah, so?

Then why are you here with me now?

You should be waiting for my call in Japan, right?

I'm changing the future.

By acting, I'm changing a little.

If it gets worse, and if I explode my past, I should fly to the other side,

right? Heroes don't run away from their own fate.

But I have one question.

Should I hide my identity?

What if there's a costume?

If you're going to wear a suit or a jacket, I'll go home. You can't go home.

It says to fly together, so let's fly together.

Does it say that in the economy?

Smoke. Oh, hey.

I was just coming up to check on my dad.

Where are you going? Aren't you supposed to be in your shift? I was just filling

in my replacement thing about your dad.

What?

Listen. No.

I'm quitting.

Why? I called the agency and told them this morning.

But my father. Caroline's going to take really great care. But she's not you.

I don't know where I'm supposed to be. It's not.

what I'm supposed to do. I can't really explain it.

Try.

Look, the truth is, I've been trying to save the world one person at a time, but

I'm meant for something bigger.

Something important.

I know it now.

Like, that's really all I can tell you.

I'll miss you.

It's New York.

Everyone runs into each other sooner or later.

Maybe it'll be sooner.

Flames were everywhere.

Oh, my God. I could hear the poor man coughing somewhere inside the train

carpet. But, I mean, there's smoke everywhere.

I can see it.

I can see it.

Nice effigy.

Thanks. I stayed up all night stuffing it with newspaper.

I'd have filled a tin with firecrackers, but that's just me.

That would have been cool.

Careful.

Then too close, you end up like that guy.

I'm not as flammable as you.

Daryl Ledgerwood's got a keg in the back of his truck.

Are you sure this is okay?

We're 30 miles from home. Who's going to know?

Jackie told me you want to meet your real mom and dad.

I told Jackie that in confidence.

You do realize you were talking to Jackie, right?

Is that why you're bummed?

The whole adoption thing?

I mean, you didn't, like, just find out, did you?

Oh, no. No, no, no. They told me when I was really little.

Why would you think I'm bummed?

You don't seem like yourself.

You thought maybe something was wrong.

You don't know me well enough to know when I'm not being myself.

You never drink plain milk.

It's always chocolate.

You draw mermaids in the margins of your notebooks.

You put cracks in your sandwiches to make them crunch.

And you're usually the first person to laugh at a joke.

But I haven't heard you laugh in a while.

Lately, you seem sort of sad.

Have you been spying on me?

Claire, my goal tonight is to hear you laugh.

Did you put firecrackers in his head just for me?

Our therapy session.

Fine. No, it wasn't.

I'm sorry. I was supposed to call you, and I meant to, but I had the craziest

day today. You would not believe what happened to me. It was so strange, and

was amazing, and I don't even know how to describe it.

Then don't.

That's it?

That's it?

You waited up all this time so that you could tell me that you don't want to

talk to me? Look, I really don't want this to turn into a fight, and if I say

anything else, it will.

I'm really trying, Matt.

You know, this marriage may not mean anything to you. What? It does. Of

it does. What are you talking about?

I just, I have a lot of stuff going on right now. So do I.

It was supposed to be a good thing when I made associate and you were supposed

to be happy for me.

But ever since it's like you're mad at me for getting what I wanted because you

haven't.

I don't mean to be.

It's just... It's hard.

I can't do this anymore.

I wish you would just leave.

Fine.

I'm going through something and I don't know if now's the right time.

You know what?

You just need to relax.

What's gotten into you?

I just really like you, Claire. Don't you like me?

Boy, that has got to be a record.

Are you hungry?

You know, I was thinking that we could stop by that ice cream shop on the way

home. You know, the one with those ginormous banana splits?

Why don't you believe that Dad's innocent?

I mean, you should be trying to help him.

I know that you want to believe in your father.

But I know what's best, Micah.

They're going to catch him, and he's going to go away for a long time.

They'll never find him.

How do you know that?

Micah, do you know where he is?

Is there a problem, officer?

Mr. Linderman wants to see you.

I guess it's sooner rather than later.

To destiny.

May we recognize it when we see it.

To love.

May we stay away from it when it's no good for us.

You know earlier today when you were telling me how you'd changed?

Yeah.

I noticed it.

This is something different.

It's like a look in your eye.

The confidence.

There's something I should tell you.

Something I didn't think was right to say.

And I still work for your father. Something I wouldn't have even said to

days ago.

I've been in love with you since the minute I first laid eyes on you.

Excuse me?

Everyone, excuse me?

I'd like to apologize about the rain. If you elect me, I promise I'll try and do

something about it.

I'd like to welcome you all here on behalf of my family and my entire

staff. I'm sure that you know my brave wife would be here by my side were she

able. The life -altering event of my father's death is really what prompted

to run for Congress.

My father hid a deep depression, an illness, really.

Up until the day he died.

His loving wife, his attentive children, his loyal friends. We all knew about

it, and yet he suffered alone.

As many of you might have read, my brother Peter had an accident.

But what I've kept from the press thus far is that Peter barely survived a

suicide attempt.

My first instinct was to...

Keep his illness hidden.

But no one should suffer alone.

Because we're all connected somehow.

Everyone in this room. You, me, everyone in this city.

And we need to look out for each other.

Nissan Versa. Nissan Versa. That's a popular choice. Let me check to see if

still have any left.

Nissan. Hiro, the flight to New York will take an hour.

We won't use the plane.

Why?

Your luck.

We have one left.

How you doing?

Well, I'm, uh... It's a rhetorical question.

Just say fine or order a drink.

Uh, fine.

What have you got on tap?

Stop just sucking the light out of me.

What's he looking at? What's he looking at?

Mark my wrong tree.

Oh, God.

What do I hear? What do I do here?

Is that the desperate?

She's digging me. I'm in for shit.

She's digging, digging for shit.

Would anybody care?

What if someone would have taken notice I was gone? Would anybody care?

We were in the apartment. We saw everything.

Want to tell me what you were doing in there? Please, just follow me.

I believe this man, Siler, killed my father.

Here's a list of targets, including a banner.

Turns around, the other one says, holy cow, a talking dog.

You son of a bitch!

Let him go.

Easy, Pete, that's our mother you're talking about.

There was no reporter on my story!

Yeah, there would have been eventually.

I had to take control of these forces that happened. Ow!

You get it, right?

Yeah. I get it. Good man.

What?

What Nathan said is not true. I didn't try to kill myself. No, I know.

This fourth evolution is not sentimental.

Like the Earth itself, it knows only the hard facts of life's struggle with

death. All you can do is hope and trust that when you have served its needs

faithfully, there may still remain some glimmer of the life you once

knew.
