The plane ticket, the painting. It all points to Montreal. It's a start.
I'm going with you.
No, I'm not risking your life too.
We were both in that Montreal painting. I think I'm supposed to go with you, Peter. Besides, when you find Ricky's killer, I want to be there.
What for?
To kill the bitch.
Your ability is fascinating. A gift.
What I do is terrible. I have taken many lives, and I can't control it.
I was like you. I could do things, amazing things.
You? Like what?
I could move objects with my mind. I could hear a pin drop from miles away. But then it all just... went away. That's why I need to see Dr. Suresh. To get them back.
You want to be different?
I want to be special. Unique. An ability doesn't have to be a burden, Maya. (Sylar reaches over and strokes Maya's hair.) It can be wonderful. (Alejandro wakes up and Sylar moves away from Maya.)
(in Spanish) Stop at the next gas station. I need to find a coyote to take us across.
(in Spanish) What? What about Gabriel?
(in Spanish) I don't trust him, Maya. I see the way he looks at you. Why is he still here?
Is there a problem?
My brother wants to hire a coyote, to cross the border without you.
Why? You can't trust them.
(in Spanish) God delivered Gabriel to us, Alejandro. We should put our faith in him. (in English) It's okay. We will cross the border together. I'm glad to have found you, Gabriel.
Tonight, we will attack. Three of us against an army. But even with powers, I fear for the sword smith's life. And for Yaeko. The woman I love, but cannot have.
I'm like you. Family comes first. Maybe we can make a deal.
What kind of deal?
You were my protégé, so dedicated to the company you made me proud. I miss that. I want you back.
Forget it.
What is that?
A border fence, not finished yet. That is America right there.
(in Spanish) Alejandro, we made it! That's the United States. (Maya drives through the fence, and police cars surround them.)
Attention, you're in violation of US immigration. We have notified border patrol. All right boys, andale, andale. Come out with your hands up.
Who are they?
They're locals. Not border patrol. They're fake police, just drive around them. (Policeman cocks his gun.)
(in Spanish) God help us.
Alright boys, this is your last warning. Vamanos!
We have to go.
They will shoot us!
(in Spanish) We never should have listened to him--
(in Spanish) Alejandro, stop!
(yelling) Just drive, now!
(in Spanish) It's happening.
(in Spanish) Give me your hand! (Alejandro reaches for Maya's hand as Sylar smacks it away and grabs Maya's wrist.)
No, no, no, no, no. Let her alone.
(in Spanish) What are you doing?! You'll die!
We need to get past these men, these guns. You can use your gift. (Policemen still banging around the car and yelling at them.)
(in Spanish) Maya take my hand, hurry.
No. (Maya's eyes turn black.)
(in Spanish) Maya, what are you doing!? (men collapse around the car and Sylar's eyes go black.)
(faintly) Drive.
The next time you think of that second helping of chunky monkey, remember one thing: the sharpie doesn't lie. Appearance matters girls.
Father! We came to save you.
I am Hiro. And this is the great swordsman Takezo Kensei. He has come to save you.
Kensei? I thought you were a drunk.
Turns out, I'm a hero.
But right now I'm dealing with someone who is a real danger to us, to everyone. And I'm afraid that in my haste to deal with him I overstepped my bounds.
The file you were holding, Adam Monroe.
Yes. You're valuable to us, Dr. Suresh. Not just for your blood or your knowledge, but to keep us in line.
How did we get here, Hiro?
I don't know. We should find Kensei. He'll explain everything
No, you did it. You held me, and then we were here. You can move people from one place to another. (Yaeko covers Hiro's mouth.) You... with a mask. It was you, Hiro. All this time. It was you that did all those amazing things.
I only wanted to fix history.
You saved me from the brigands. You were the one under the cherry blossoms. Do you... love me, Hiro?
I do. Very much.
Everything I loved in Kensei came from you.
It was the kiss that fractured time.
(Alejandro is beating up Sylar next to the car.)
(in Spanish) Alejandro! Stop! I did what I had to do, for all of us!
(in Spanish) Listen to what you're saying! You're a killer, because of him. I won't do this. You have to choose. Either he goes, or I do.
(in Spanish) Don't, Alejandro. We need Gabriel. He can take us to Dr. Suresh. To salvation!
(in Spanish) Fine. He can stay. But the next time your eyes blacken, don't look for my hand. It won't be there. I will let him die. (Alejandro moves away.)
(to Sylar) I will get something for your lip. (Maya walks away.)
I know you don't understand me, but I want to tell you why I'm helping you. It's that delicious power. You see, when I get my abilities back, I'm gonna kill you... and your sister. And I'm gonna take it all. And if I don't get my ability back, it's not a total loss. Maya's learning quickly. She's a shiny new toy, and she's all mine. (Sylar smiles.)
Kensei! I've been searching for hours. Come my friend, we must go back and destroy White Beard's guns.
If you want to stop him do it yourself.
Something wrong?
I saw you Hiro. After I saved the swordsmith I came looking for you, afraid something happened to Yaeko, 'cause I love her. And you, friend, betrayed me.
No-
Yes, you kissed her.
It happened by accident.
You accidentally kissed her?
I accidentally fell in love with her. And she with me. I'm so sorry.
So you've been lying to me all along. First you show me that I can be harmed by no weapon and then you hurt me deeper than any blade possibly could.
She's your princess, Kensei. I know that. And I swear I will not give into love. That kiss will be our last.
