Summary
Symbol Sightings
- When Hiro enters Isaac's studio, it is visible on every canvas in the room. The symbol appears in Isaac’s studio in at least seven (and probably more) different paintings.
- In an over head shot of a swimming pool, at the home of the murdered Walkers, it is formed by one of the hoses.
- Peter draws it on his sketch pad while in the hospital.
- It can be seen in the scrolling text on Mohinder's laptop (it appears at least twice in the breaks of the genetic code as it scrolls across the screen.)
- Found on a post-it note on the map in Chandra Suresh's apartment.

What Happened
A glimpse of the future… And Patient Zero!
Nathan tries to convince Peter that he did not fly and that Peter’s attempt at flight was really a suicide attempt. Nathan tells him that he landed on a fire escape, which saved his life. Peter doesn’t believe a word of it and neither did we. Claire is still interested in learning the identities of her birth parents. Mr. Bennett (also affectionately known as Horn Rimmed Glasses (or HRG)) tells Claire he will do whatever it takes to help but he is obviously lying. Mohinder walks in on an “exterminator” who is really an intruder planting a listening device. He is most likely working for Bennett (HRG). Mohinder chases him into the hall where he loses his gun only to be picked up by the waifish Eden McKenzie who sends him on his way. Hiro examines a copy of 9thWonders comic book and finds that the story being told is of his time warping exploits. Niki loses four hours while viewing the static-ridden tape of what occurred in her apartment. Claire’s videographer Zach reveals that he has lost the tape and Claire’s cheerleader friend Jackie takes credit for saving the man in the train wreck. Niki returns to her home only to find the garage cleaned up and a Cadillac parked out in front of the house. In the glove compartment she finds a pink slip with her name on it and a note that tells her to follow the map in the trunk. The trunk of the Cadillac contains the map and the remains of the two mobsters. Niki follows the map to a secluded area in the desert only to find a shovel sticking out of the dirt. When she begins digging she reveals a decaying skull. Perhaps her mirror double has done this sort of thing before? We hear that Nathan and Peter’s father was clinically depressed and that he killed himself. Undertones of super power are felt here. Did Mr. Petrelli also have hero-like powers? Hiro decides to find Isaac Mendez and visits his studio. When he gets there he finds a room full of paintings of the same symbol and a very gruesome site. A gun is lying on the floor next to a running puddle of blood. At the end of the puddle is Isaac. He is lying on the floor with the top of his head sawn off and the inside of his skull has been scraped clean. Why would anyone want someone else’s dead brains? What could they possibly achieve by studying dead brain tissue? Matt Parkman, a police officer, is assigned traffic duty outside the home of a murdered couple. While on duty he hears the voice of a little girl. He enters the home and finds the child hiding but not before he sees the mother impaled to the wall and the father frozen with the top of his head missing. The name “Sylar” is heard by a few policewomen talking and Parkman is questioned. He is arrested on suspicion of the murders. In the meantime, Mohinder and Eden discuss his father’s work and theories. She notices that Chandra Suresh has voice mails… one of Nathan Petrelli soliciting votes and the other of Sylar. Eden also finds a portable hard drive, which shows a genetic code scrolling across the screen. Inside the code we see the same symbol that Isaac has painted. Peter confronts Nathan and in a fit of passion walks on air (flies) and we see for the first time that Peter can also fly! At Isaac’s apartment, Hiro is questioned and finds that he has been gone from Tokyo for five weeks and that instead of October 2nd it is now November 8th. During the questioning there is an incredible explosion and the wake can be seen moving towards Hiro and the building he is in. As the explosion threatens to consume him he teleports back to Tokyo.
