I take it you're annoyed.

Claire

What is it, West? Huh? What do you want from me?

I want you to admit you're different.

Claire

Okay, fine, I'm a freak. Alright?

Claire.

Claire

I am such a freak, in fact, that I have to tip-toe around this school pretending to be a brainless Barbie doll so nobody notices how different I am. 'Cause if they found out, I'd be carted off to some human zoo where I'd be poked and prodded at for the rest of my life. So yeah, West, I'm different. And you can tell the world if you want to because I'm tired of pretending to be someone I'm not.

Claire, shut up. (lifts her up and flies.)

Hi.

Claire

Hi.

I can't stop thinking about yesterday. It was amazing! I finally found someone I can be myself with.

Claire

Uh... about that. I-I'm not sure we should hang out anymore. It's just my parents are really overprotective.

Is this because we flew together? It weirded you out, didn't it?

Claire

You caught me.

Of course I did.

Claire

But I would have been fine.

I know you can heal, Claire, but I never want to see you hurt.

(Derek buys newspaper with Alejandro and Maya's pictures on the front.)

Claire

We can tell the world what they did. How they kidnapped me and murdered my father.

You have no proof. No one would believe you.

Claire

You're probably right. I guess I'm just gonna have to show them. (punches the driver's side window of Elle's car breaking it. Shows the cuts on her hand to Elle as it heals) I'll show everyone exactly what I can do. Once the secrets out, you won't be able to touch me or my family. You'll be the ones running.

You are really going through with this.

Claire

They killed Dad, they're never going to leave us alone.

You do realize what'll happen to us if you tell everyone what we can do.

Claire

Yes. No more running, no more hiding, no more secrets.

Your dad couldn't take down this company, Claire, what makes you think you can?

(Claire opens the door to her room and finds Sylar standing there)

Hello, Claire.

(Claire stares at Sylar in fear)

I bet you're wondering where I've been since you saw me last, huh?

(Claire backs up)

Let's just say I took a little...detour from my career path. Spent a little time south of the border. But...that's all behind me now like a long night after a bad taco.

Claire

(in disbelief) No. I saw Hiro Nakamura kill you. I was there.

And yet, here I am. Fully recovered. Well...not fully. That's actually why I've come.

Claire

What do you want from me?

The same thing I did last time I came for you. I want what you have, Claire. I want your power.

Claire

Wait! What about me? Aren't you going to kill me?

Poor girl. There's so much about yourself you don't even understand. Your brain is not like the others, Claire. You are not like the others. You're different. You're special. I couldn't kill you even if I wanted to. You can never die. And now, I guess...neither can I.

All right, we'll start at the beginning. Survival.

Claire

I've already mastered survival. I need to learn how to fight.

There are some things you can't fight, Claire. [manifests her power and begins heating up the metal box]

[Meredith is using her power to use up all the oxygen in the metal box that she and Claire are in]

Claire

What's this supposed to prove? I've walked through fire before and I haven't gotten burned.

You've never been burned?

Claire

I'm indestructible. I can't feel pain.

You ever suffocate? 'Cause I would imagine the air is getting pretty thin in here.

Claire

Why are you doing this?

Why do you wanna stop bad guys?

Claire

I told you. To help people.

That's what you keep saying. But I don't believe you. Do you know what waterboarding is, Claire?

Claire

No.

It's a method of torture. You're not drowning but your body tells your mind that you are. You think you're gonna die. Trapped, you panic. Trapped. Does that remind you of anything?

Claire

Stop it! Turn it off!

Is this how it was with Sylar, huh? You're indestructible but you couldn't get away, right? Well, that must have made you feel trapped. Helpless.

Claire

Please stop! I can't--

Why do you wanna stop bad guys?

Claire

To help people!

I don't believe you. You tell me why!

Claire

To hurt him, okay! To hurt him for what he did! Like he hurt me!

(Sylar is holding Claire up against a wall)

Claire

Where's Angela?

Well, you wouldn't pick before so, I had to up the stakes. Save Daddy. Or is it Granny?

Claire

Let me go!

Why are you even pretending? We both know you're going after your dad. Even after all the lies he's told you. How he's neglected you. What does that say about you, Claire?

(Claire stares at Sylar)

That's the thing about the truth, Claire. It stings like a bitch.

Claire

This is my new boyfriend, Alex.

And why is he hiding in your closet.

Claire

We're...

Claire

Are you really going to make me say this out loud?

Definitely.

Claire

We're having sex. I know, it was wrong, and we're so sorry.

AAlex

[Shocked] Wha--?! Ma'am, I never touched your daughter!

[Claire glares at him. He shrugs.]
