Heroes · Season 3, Episode 3

Claire and Meredith in “One of Us, One of Them”

[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.

Meredith

You've never been burned?

Claire

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

Meredith

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

Claire

Why are you doing this?

Meredith

Why do you wanna stop bad guys?

Claire

I told you. To help people.

Meredith

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

Claire

No.

Meredith

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!

Meredith

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--

Meredith

Why do you wanna stop bad guys?

Claire

To help people!

Meredith

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!
