Hiro takes Ando to a fire station and explains that it's now their lair. He presents Ando with a new spandex costume and explains that superheroes must hide their identity. Ando figures that Hiro wants to live through him, and his power is worthless. Hiro disagrees and says it's his destiny to be a superhero. Ando disagrees and Hiro reveals the Ando-cycle, complete with a communications link to their "lair". Hiro can track his location with a GPS implant, and injects Ando with the implant. He explains he has a GPS as well, and the system is keyed to the password of someone he cares about. Ando insists he has had enough and rides away on the Ando-cycle.
Peter is working as a paramedic and dealing with a car accident victim. He's unable to save the victim and his partner Hesam finally pulls him off when Peter refuses to give up. Peter insists he could have saved him, had he been stronger.
Claire is going over college brochures when Angela comes in and says that an elite education is vital. Claire isn't so sure but Angela insists she try to have a normal life. Claire worries about Sylar but Angela insists that he is dead. Her granddaughter doesn't believe her, saying that her father keeps going on trips and she'll find Sylar if no one else believes her.
In Baltimore, Sylar goes to a watch shop and picks up a watch. The owner, Martin Gray, comes in and points a shotgun at him thinking he's a thief. Sylar asks where he lived 27 years ago and if he walked out on his family. Sylar says he is Martin's son and has some questions for him.
Daphne superspeeds back into her apartment where Matt is eating. She says she's been working but he's unhappy that she's been using her powers when he's refused to. He wants to live a normal life but she insists it's boring. However, as he talks, a vision of Usutu appears to him. Daphne, who can't see it, says she'll go along with his plans.
As Claire is leaving, she overhears Angela talking to someone. As she listens in and hears that it is Nathan talking to Angela, who admits she can't control Claire. Nathan warns that they have to keep Claire away from Matt and Peter because they're going to take them down. Claire sees that Angela has seen her and walks out, and Angela warns Nathan they have a bigger problem.
Martin explains that he's a different person now and that it was a mistake to have a child with Sylar's mother. Sylar doesn't believe that he is the son of a watchmaker and a woman who collected snow globes and demands answers, and Martin explains that a man who needed money gave Sylar to him. His wife couldn't have children and Martin thought it was the perfect answer. Martin explains the man was his brother and gives Sylar an address, then tells him to leave. Sylar knows he speaks the truth and considers using his power to get more information but decides not to and leaves.
Peter watches as the dead man is taken away. His partner asks if Peter plans to visit his brother, who is in town for the day. He admits that Nathan scares him because he's talking about putting away people who are "different," and figures Peter wouldn't understand. Peter says he doubts it, then takes a call from Claire. She warns him about Nathan's plan to round up people and that Matt is their next target. Peter goes to talk to Angela while Claire goes to warn Matt. Peter gets in a cab and finds that Mohinder is the driver. They speak in a friendly manner, Peter asks Mohinder if he ever had the feeling like he was meant to do something extraordinary and they share a laugh. Mohinder notes that they're all keeping a low profile, except for Nathan. He says that the possibility of uncontrolled powers is a major risk and he's willing to let the government take control. They get to their destination and Mohinder lets him out.
Once Peter is gone, a man gets in the cab behind him. It's the leader of the commando team, and he points a gun at Mohinder, telling him to drive. They go to a parking lot where men in black commando suits are waiting with guns. The man tells Mohinder to get in their van. As Mohinder gets out, he rips off the car door, knocks out the leader, and uses the door as a shield. He runs away and Noah arrives in a SUV and rescues him. As they escape, Noah asks him who he's been in contact with. They get to the exit only to discover that the hunter and his men have cut them off. Noah apologizes and then tasers Mohinder, who staggers out of the car and collapses.
Peter arrives at Angela's home and finds Nathan waiting for him. Nathan informs his brother that their mother isn't there and apologizes for not having seen him in a while. He says it's all his own plan, not his father's plan and he's taking a cautious approach because he was shot the last time he tried to go public. Peter accuses him of being a hypocrite and Nathan says he'd like his input. Peter isn't interested but Nathan asks for a chance to talk over dinner. Peter gives in and leaves, but as he goes Nathan asks him what he can do. Peter points out that the last thing Nathan saw him do was fly, and then leaves.
At his apartment, Matt notices that his turtle has gotten out of his tank. Usutu appears to him and says he has a message for him, and explains that he's an illusion. Usutu says that Matt is on a journey to become a prophet and the world needs him to tell them the future. He says that Matt will learn how to paint the future. Matt sits down with paper and pencil; his eyes turn white almost immediately and he starts to sketch.
Hiro tracks Ando and calls him, trying to apologize. Ando say that he's fighting crime but Hiro pinpoints his location on the computer and discovers he's at a strip club. Ando has no interest in helping people, but he hears the sounds of an attack at Hiro's end. He gets on his motorcycle and heads back to the lair, as men in black take an unconscious Hiro out.
Matt finishes a picture of himself and Claire examining a picture as someone knocks on his door. He draws a gun and finds Claire. She asks if anyone has come to get him and Matt shows her the drawings. There are several other drawings and he says he doesn't understand. He finds another picture of himself with a dart in his neck, just as someone shoots a dart through the window into his neck. The men in black arrive and hold Claire at gunpoint as Matt goes down.
Peter arrives at his apartment and finds Nathan waiting for him. Nathan apologizes for disowning him and says what he's doing is important for the country and the world. He says Peter can't live his life normally because he's not normal, and says he can make special arrangements. Peter wonders what he wants and Nathan says he wants to know that Peter is with him. Peter refuses and says that he'll fight him if necessary. Nathan smiles and asks for a hug, and Noah tasers Peter from behind.
Sylar goes to the home of Samson Gray, taxidermist. The door is open and he walks inside. Sylar finds a picture of himself as a child on the mantelpiece as well as a snow globe. He also notices a smoking cigarette in an ash tray. More men in black emerge, shoot him with tranquilizer darts, and try to immobilize him. Sylar uses his telekinesis to send them back and his electrical powers to stun them. He pulls one of the men to him and demands answers, then starts to slice the man's head open until he talks. The man, Simmons, gives his name but nothing else and Sylar continues to torture him for information.
Back at the lair, Ando tries to come up with Hiro's password and finally enters his own name, successfully gaining access. Hiro's location is displayed as North Africa.
At an airplane hangar, Nathan reviews the prisoners, all confined to negate their powers. The Hunter arrives and reports that Sylar escaped. He also shows Nathan Claire, who is being kept semi-conscious. Nathan asks for a moment alone with her and he tells her to go home and forget what she's seen. She refuses but he puts her in a car and has her driven away.
As the prisoners are being loaded onto a cargo plane, Claire recovers and knocks out the driver by kicking his head into the window of the car. She sees the plane departing and runs to it, then climbs into a landing wheel bay. As the plane lifts off, Nathan looks on and then walks away.
Aboard the plane, Claire emerges into the cargo hold and unhoods one prisoner: Hiro, drugged and unconscious. She finds Peter and Mohinder and removes the drug feeds from both of them. Peter manages to touch Mohinder and take his power, using it to break his shackles. As Claire frees Tracy, Peter attacks the guards. Claire grabs a taser and goes to the cockpit, stunning one guard and threatening the pilot. She discovers, to her surprise, that Noah is in the co-pilot's seat.
Peter tries to free Tracy as another guard attacks him. He gains Tracy's power and inadvertently touches the side of the plane. It freezes and shatters, and the guards and at least one prisoner are swept out. As the plane starts to go down, the netting Peter is holding onto comes unfastened and he starts to get swept out as well. Mohinder grabs him but starts to lose his grip…

Noah takes Claire to the Bennet house where Sandra wonders what happened. Noah explains that Claire has lost her power and tells her not to call the hospital, which will call the police. He insists it’s a surface wound and they can deal with it. Sandra reluctantly agrees and goes to get medical supplies. Claire recovers consciousness and admits she’s been careless, but is at least happy she can feel pain again. Noah thanks her for saving his life.
In Lawrence, Hiro tries to use his powers again without success. Ando thinks Arthur may be responsible but Matt doesn’t believe it. Hiro says they have to save Daphne but Matt says he can’t.

As they make their way through the jungle, the Haitian is surprised to hear that Arthur is alive, and says he didn’t strip Nathan of his powers. The Haitian says he has also lost his abilities and has to stop Samedi, his brother. Samedi is invulnerable to physical damage, and the Haitian explains that he is building an army based on superstitious fear of those who think he's a god. Peter insists on helping, and points out to Nathan they should do it for no other reason then so that the Haitian can complete his task and go back with them. They’re interrupted when soldiers open fire on them. The soldiers capture Nathan while Peter and the Haitian escape. Samedi emerges from the jungle and says they know all about him: Arthur warned them he would be coming. Samedi knocks him out and has his soldiers take Nathan to the camp.

Mr. Millbrook gets in his truck and leaves, and Matt goes to the front door and knocks. He tells Daphne he isn’t leaving until he talks to her but she tells him to leave. He refuses and says he knows who she is: smart, beautiful, funny. He says he’s in love with her and is never going to give up on her. She tells him to come in and he follows her voice to the bedroom. She’s crippled, her legs useless, and didn't want him to see her that way.

She says they can’t take what they want any more but Sylar questions that, grabs her, and kisses her passionately. Outside, Noah is drawing a bead on him with a sniper rifle.
Discuss: Heroes Season 3 Episode 9
Outside of Usutu's hut, Hiro screams in agony as Arthur Petrelli holds Hiro's head. Ando lunges at Arthur, who telekinetically throws him away in midleap. Arthur informs Hiro he needed to clean up his mess, but notices a painting of an eclipse on the nearby rock wall. He goes to study it and Ando frees Hiro from Arthur's control. Ando tells Hiro to teleport him away, but Hiro doesn’t know what Ando’s talking about. As Arthur walks toward them, Hiro thinks of waffles. Ando forces him to close his eyes, and Hiro teleports them to a bowling alley in Tokyo, Japan. Hiro sees a chicken & waffles poster and follows a waiter to a nearby table. Hiro asks why Ando is so old, then looks at himself in a mirror and thinks he looks old as well. Ando asks him how old he thinks he is and Hiro says 10.
Back at Pinehearst, Sylar is watching repairmen fixing the windows when Arthur teleports to his side. Arthur comments that it’s hard to believe that Peter could have survived the fall. He takes Sylar down the hall and explains he can teach his son how to take powers without killing by harnessing his empathy. Arthur says he knows Sylar saved Peter, then escorts him into a room where Elle is chained to the floor. She recognizes Sylar and fires a lightning bolt at him, blasting him apart.
At Peter's apartment, Claire tells Peter that they need to leave but Peter says he’s going alone and he can protect himself even without his powers. He says he needs her to stay innocent. There’s a banging noise on the door and Claire tells Peter to run down the fire escape, saying she has a plan to hold them off. Knox and Flint barge in and Flint ignites his hand while Knox tries to feed on her fear without success. She leaps out the window, falling past Peter and landing in the alleyway several floors below. Peter gets down and the two of them run away. As they go, Pete notices a painting of the Earth splitting open on the alleyway wall. They go down into the sewers.
Arthur visits Mohinder in the Pinehearst laboratory and Mohinder admits he’s wondering if it’s impossible to give people abilities without an adverse reaction. Arthur notices Mohinder monitoring an upcoming solar flare and admits he has a similar interest. Mohinder notes that a number of powers manifested during the last eclipse but dismisses it as a coincidence. Mohinder concludes that the formula is sound but there’s something missing: a necessary catalyst. Arthur tells him to keep looking but Mohinder explains that that the catalyst would have to be in a human host. Arthur realizes that Kaito Nakamura knew what it is, but didn’t hide it well enough. As he goes, the test subject inside, horribly mutated, writhes in pain.
Sylar falls to the floor, regenerating his injuries. Elle swears at him, saying he killed her father. Sylar says it wouldn’t do any good to apologize and she deserves vengeance. He stands up and tells her to blast him again and she does.
Matt and Daphne arrive at Primatech only to find it deserted. Matt sees Usutu ahead and follows him, only to find himself in Angela’s room and Usutu nowhere to be seen. Angela’s still in a coma and Matt uses his telepathy to read her mind. He gets a painful feedback and says he has to help her; Daphne says she'll go find a nurse.
At his office in Pinehearst, Arthur is studying files on Kaito and Claire when Daphne superspeeds in and tells him about Angela. He says his wife will be fine and she asks if they can keep Matt out of it. He tells her he can always send Daphne back where he found her, and she asks what he wants her to do. He says that if Matt tries to help Angela, he’ll deal with it.
In the sewers, Peter explains that the alleyway they were in is where she shoots him in the future. He warns her he’s trying to stop that future from coming true. He tells her to go home but she says it’s his fault for becoming her friend and her hero. She’s going to stay with him to return the favor. They hear someone coming and Claire sends Peter off while she goes toward Knox and Flint as they arrive. Knox addresses her by name and says that they came for her. Knox easily subdues her and Peter hears her cries.
In Tokyo, Hiro eats waffles as Ando tries to explain that Hiro’s 28. Hiro is happy to hear he doesn’t have to go to school any more and shoots spitballs at nearby girls. Ando tries to explain Hiro's power and tells him to try to use it. Hiro says it’s stupid, but concentrates, and time slows down momentarily. Hiro returns time to normal and is impressed, and tries again, totally freezing time. He aims the two girls shooting spitballs at each other the runs around the bowling alley playing pranks. Once he’s done, he restores time to normal and all of the pranks go off. Ando says they have a lot of work to do.
Daphne returns to Matt as he tries to get inside Angela's head. Daphne asks if he can get hurt, and Matt admits he’s only done it once with his dad. He asks Daphne to stay there and watch him while he disappears into Angela’s head. He concentrates and sits back.
Elle continues to electrify Sylar, whose burns heal. Sylar tells her he didn’t want to kill Bob or anyone else. He insists he’s not going to let the urge force him to kill any more. Elle, unimpressed, hits him with another lightning bolt and he says he understands she needs to let it out. She continues to hit him with electricity until, exhausted, she finally tells him to kill her. He extends his hand to use his telekinetic abilities.
Nathan and Tracy arrive outside Pinehearst, and he remembers a cabin called Pinehearst where Arthur took Nathan and Peter fishing. Tracy says there may be a reason Arthur kept his existence secret, but Nathan says he has to know the truth and see his father if he’s alive. They go to Arthur’s office and meet him. Arthur asks him to come give him a hug and Nathan cautiously circles him. Arthur addresses Tracy by name and shakes hands with her. Nathan asks if Arthur knows what he did to the family and Arthur admits he should have told Nathan what Nathan's role was in all this. Arthur asks Tracy to step outside so he can talk alone with his son. Arthur explains that the events of Nathan’s last two weeks are part of his destiny and pats him on the shoulder. Nathan shrugs him off and says it’s the same garbage that Linderman spouted. Arthur says the destruction is already coming and he has the formula that will stop it. Arthur says that Nathan has always been the strong son and they can save the world together.
Sylar telekinetically shatters Elle’s chains and she tells him to take her power and kill her so the pain will stop. He says that her father made her a monster just like his mother made him a monster. He says she saved him, but Elle says she only saved him so they could use him as a lab rat. He forgives her and says that she needs to forgive herself. She considers what he’s said and realizes the pain is gone. He holds up his hand and generates electricity.
Peter confronts Knox and Flint and says they can let her go or they’ll die. He glances up at the ceiling where a gas pipe is leaking. Peter taunts Flint into releasing a ball of flame into the gas and Knox tries to stop him… too late. Claire runs away with Peter as the gas jet blows Knox and Flint back.
Elle and Sylar are sitting together and Elle admits nobody has ever done anything like that for her before. He explains that it’s human to be at war within and the trick is to figure out how to deal with it. She holds her hands up and they exchange a bolt of electricity, but he admits he doesn’t have it all figured out yet. She offers to show him a few tricks and he quickly becomes proficient. She moves closer to him to direct his aim and he thanks her, and she thanks him. Arthur is watching them on a monitor.
In Tokyo, Ando tries to explain to Hiro how to teleport. Hiro teleports away and appears behind Ando, then does it again. Ando says now he needs to teleport both of them and suggest they go to Charles Deveaux's rooftop or Odessa, Texas. Instead Hiro teleports them to a comic book store and starts going through the racks.
Nathan leaves Pinehearst, telling Tracy what Arthur told him. Tracy says that he’s a senator with a constituency relying on him. She tells him to snap out of it and they need to go to the Department of Justice, but Nathan notes that the last time he tried to go public, his brother came from the future to shoot him. Nathan says he’s going to Primatech to check on his mother and flies off.
Tracy goes back into Arthur’s office and says she thinks they can help each other. She wants him to protect her and in return she explains that he needs a public face and everyone believes he’s dead. Tracy says Nathan can be that face, but he’s on the fence, and she can push him over.
Daphne watches helplessly as Matt sees the visions that Angela experienced of Nathan, Peter, and Tracy dying. Matt finds himself in an empty Pinehearst room and looks down the hall to see Angela sitting in a chair, handcuffed to the arms. Angela tells Matt he shouldn’t have come and warns that Arthur is too dangerous. Matt tries to free the handcuffs without success and gets one door open. Daphne walks in and says she’s there to help him, and he hugs her. Then she stabs him in the chest. In the real world, Daphne listens as Matt says “Daphne don’t” and flinches in pain. She tries to get Matt to wake up and discovers blood on his chest.
Mohinder is recording notes on the test subject and apologizes to the man. The subject begs for death and Mohinder gives him an injection.
Hiro is reading Marvel comic books and notices an issue of 9th Wonders! with him on the cover. Hiro doesn’t believe it reveals the future, but Ando opens it and shows him first a picture of Arthur attacking him, then a picture of them in the comic book store having their discussion. Hiro finally believes him and they turn to the next page, which shows the eclipse and the words “It’s coming.”
Peter goes into the room to see Angela and Nathan arrives. Angela tells them that Arthur has the formula and explains that she and Peter have seen the future. She says that there’s a third piece of the formula, a catalyst, and it’s hidden away in the blood of a human host. Kaito is the only one who knew the host, and he’s dead. Matt says all they need to do is make sure Arthur doesn’t find the host. Claire remembers when Sylar attacked her and said she was different from everyone else. She says she now understands that she’s the catalyst.
During almost a montage sequence it shows the Heroes and Villains choosing their respective sides.
In the end, we see Peter, Nathan, Claire, Matt, and Daphne in Angela's Room. While in Arthur's office we see Tracy, Knox, Sylar, Elle, and Flint.
With his team around him, Arthur, in a precognitive trance, is drawing a sketch of the eclipse. Once he's finished, Arthur looks up and says “It’s coming.”

Discuss Heroes Season 3 Episode 8: Villains!
In Usutu's hut, Hiro eats some of Usutu's paste, and Hiro falls into a trance. He begins to see events that happened in the past.
Eighteen months ago, Arthur is speaking at the Petrelli mansion and is giving thanks to his family members. Linderman comes over and congratulates Angela and Arthur. He then asks Nathan if the rumors are true; if his office is going to launch a full scale investigation on all things Linderman. Nathan replies that he should shave his wrists or the handcuffs will chafe. Linderman asks Arthur what he sees in Nathan. Arthur then looks into Nathan's mind with telepathy and replies "trouble." Linderman asks Arthur what he's going to do about it, and he responds that when father battles son, only one is left standing. He says he'll kill Nathan if he has too. However, he says he owes Nathan one last conversation.
Eight months later, Flint burns some popcorn packets in a convenience store while Meredith steals money from hostages on the floor. Flint notices one hostage still standing and orders him to get down. Meredith tries to tell him to stop, but Flint only further antagonizes the man. The man turns around, revealing himself to be Thompson, and tells Flint that he should have listened to his sister. Flint ignites his flames but Thompson sprays Flint with a fire extinguisher and threatens to taze Meredith. Flint, however, manages to escape.
In his workshop, Gabriel holds a noose in his hand. He stands on a chair and is about to hang himself whilst recalling meeting Brian Davis, killing him, and stealing his power. Gabriel slips the noose around his neck as the door opens and Elle steps in, calling for help. Gabriel kicks the chair away and almost dies, but Elle finds him and severs the noose with a bolt of electricity, saving Gabriel. Elle asks Gabriel if he's alright, and he replies, "Forgive me." He falls unconscious in Elle's arms. Later, Elle tells Gabriel that everything is going to be okay, but Gabriel disagrees, saying that he's done unforgivable things. Elle tries to get him to talk about what he did, but he says he can't. Gabriel says that he wanted something that someone had and took it at a terrible price. Elle reassures Gabriel that he's not a bad person and is just a man who deserves a second chance. Gabriel tells Elle that he doesn't even know her name, and she gives it to him. Gabriel says that she's like an angel, showing up out of nowhere. Elle smiles and corrects him, saying that she's just an angel with a broken watch.
Outside, Elle goes to a Primatech Paper van and meets with Noah. She asks why they can't just bag and tag Gabriel like the others. Noah says that the ability to transfer powers "from one vessel to another is very rare." He says that their orders are to observe Gabriel in his own environment. He suggests that Elle gets Gabriel to demonstrate his abilities by giving him pie.
In a company cell, Thompson talks about the crimes that Meredith has committed. He then says that the Company wants to train her to become an agent. Meredith initially refuses, but Thompson asks why she hates the company so much. Meredith only responds that she has her reasons. Thompson asks her to put her reasons aside and make a sensible decision or risk spending the rest of her life imprisoned. Meredith hesitates, asking Thompson to promise not to go after her brother. Thompson only gives her a choice between being an agent or a prisoner. Relenting, Meredith asks when she starts.
Angela visits Arthur in their garden. Peter is about to graduate from nursing school, and Angela wants to know why Arthur won't go to Peter's graduation party. Arthur scorns Peter's chosen occupation. Angela tells Arthur to be patient with Peter; that he will be a very powerful person when his ability manifests. As Angela leaves, Nathan approaches his father. Arthur suggests he hand off the Linderman case to another ADA so he doesn’t put undue pressure on the Petrelli family. Nathan refuses, assuring his father that nothing will go wrong, and warning that Linderman is toxic for the family. Arthur glares at Nathan as he leaves. Nathan asks what's wrong, but Arthur only remarks that he looks good in a suit.
Later that night, Nathan is driving with his wife Heidi as a van speeds up from behind and begins trying to run them off the road. Nathan struggles to maintain control of the car, but suddenly finds himself flying out of his car seat leaving Heidi in the car alone. Nathan is left suspended in the air, helpless, as his car, with Heidi in it, crashes into some barrels.
Later, Nathan is at the hospital receiving news from the doctor as Peter watches on. Angela and Arthur arrive, and Angela hugs her son. Nathan is outraged to see his father and insists that Linderman’s men ran his car off the road. Peter pulls Nathan away and tries to calm him down, saying that Heidi wants to see him. Nathan warns that he will hurt Linderman and will hurt Arthur if he allies with him. Nathan leaves his father, telling him that he needs to choose a side.
At the Petrelli mansion, Arthur is typing on his laptop as Angela enters. Angela delivers the news of Heidi's injuries. She tries to talk with Arthur about what Nathan said about Linderman. Arthur steadfastly maintains that he didn't order Linderman to kill Nathan.
In Austin, Texas, Thompson and Meredith go to a shantytown and approach Danny Pine, a Vietnam veteran. Meredith asks if she should use her power but Thompson tells her it’s a training mission and she should wait for his orders. Thompson approaches Pine and identifies himself as a representative from the V.A. Pine wonders what happened to his previous V.A. representative and Meredith hastily steps in. Pine doesn’t believe them, turns his hand into solid metal, and knocks Thompson down. Meredith superheats his hand and takes Thompson’s taser, then stuns Pine. Impressed, Thompson welcomes her to the Company.
In Queens, Noah is spying on Gabriel from his van. Gabriel is in his apartment, looking at a map of evolved humans as Elle knocks on his door with a pie. She asks Gabriel if he likes pie. She notices the List and he casually dismisses it. Elle tries to get a look at it but Gabriel throws it in the garbage. Gabriel explains to Elle about his ability. He then demonstrates that telekinesis by moving some dishes and throwing a fork into the sink. He says that the people on the list could do things like that too. Elle tries to learn more, but Gabriel serves himself a piece of pie.
At Primatech, Thompson tells Meredith that she could become an agent in due time, as long as she proves her loyalty and can follow any orders withotu question. He tells her to put Pine in cell 9. Meredith obliges, but on the way, she sees her brother in a Company cell. She is confused, thinking that Flint got away, but he says that an "invisible man" tackled him in an alley and captured him. Flint says that the company's going to train him, just like they're doing to Meredith. Meredith is distressed, and Flint says that they'll be able to work together. Thompson comes and asks the two if there's a problem, and Meredith says no.
Noah watches as Elle and Gabriel have pie and he admits that his power is addictive. He admits that since meeting her he feels he can be normal, but Elle assures him he’s special the way he is. She meets with Noah outside and he sarcastically comments on her fake sympathy. He wants to kick the plan into high gear and make sure they can witness Gabriel killing someone. Elle thinks his suicide attempt was a wake-up call and Noah realizes she likes Gabriel, much to her embarrassment. Noah suggests they set Gabriel up with Trevor Zeitlan and see what happens. When Elle refuses, Noah suggests she go off on her own, and warns that if she doesn’t follow orders then she’ll be on her own.
At the Petrelli mansion, Linderman apologizes to Arthur, saying that he doesn't know how Nathan survived the crash. Linderman proposes to postpone their plans, but Arthur refuses. He offers to find a guy in Montreal to dispose of Nathan once and for all, but Angela overhears their conversation and is shocked. Angela runs away, grabs a kitchen knife, and threatens Arthur with it. Arthur uses telepathy and tries to command Angela to say that Nathan has to die. Angela is unrelenting at first, but is unable to resist Arthur's commands in the end.
In the present-day, Hiro sits up, still in a trance, and utters "Murder!" in Japanese. Ando tries to wake him up, but Usutu tells him not to. Ando says that they need to do something, and Usutu hands him some incense. Usutu says that something has disturbed Hiro's spirit walk and holds the fumes under Hiro's nose, causing him to fall back again.
Back in the past, at Primatech, Meredith comes to Flint's cell and knocks on his window, then opens his cell door. She offers him a way to escape with her, but Flint doesn't want to because the company's being nice to him. Meredith reminds him that their father always told him that God gave him an older sister in lieu of brains.
Later, on a freight train filled with volatile substances, and Meredith says they'll probably have to hide in Mexico. Meredith warns Flint that he can never trust the Company. Thompson emerges from hiding and tasers Meredith unconscious. Flint thinks she’s dead and retreats. Once Thompson has gone after her brother, Meredith wakes up and goes after both of them. She calls out to Flint and Thompson turns back and goes after her. Flint approaches Thompson who prepares to taser him. Meredith struggles with him and Flint jumps off of the train. Thompson asks why Meredith had to screw it up, saying they could have given him a purpose but now Flint is their sworn enemy. Meredith fires a blast at him and runs past, while the cargo ignites. She and Thompson both jump clear of the train just before its contents explode.
Petrelli mansion: Angela is chopping some vegetables as Linderman comes in and remarks that her food smells good. She asks what’s on his mind and Linderman says that he has a shred of morality and can’t stand by while Arthur damages her mind. He offers to heal the scars of all the thoughts and memories that Arthur has tampered with, and warns that Arthur plans to kill Nathan. Linderman places his hands on Angela's shoulders and says that he can heal the scars, and tells Angela that she needs to make a choice between obedience and the truth. After a few moments of thought she moves Linderman's hands to her head, and Linderman proceeds to heal her memory loss.
Thompson and a captured Meredith watch as firemen arrive to deal with the train wreck. Meredith explains that 14 years ago the Company caught up to her and killed her baby daughter Claire. Realizing who Meredith’s daughter is, he frees Meredith and tells her to go before he changes his mind. As Meredith leaves, Claire approaches the burning train wreck below and rescues a fireman.
At Gabriel's apartment, Elle cooks some ziti for dinner with Gabriel. As someone knocks on the door, Elle reveals that she invited another man to join them. Trevor Zeitlan enters and Elle says it’s good that Gabriel meet with others who have powers. Trevor demonstrates his ability to shatter objects by pointing at them and concentrating.
Arthur is enjoying Angela’s family soup recipe and wonders why she seems far away. She asks if he’d know her without his power. The Haitian enters the dining room, neutralizing Arthur’s telepathy as he squirms uncomfortably. She asks him if he can tell if she’s going to kiss him or kill him.
Trevor continues to demonstrate his ability as Elle expresses her admiration. An increasingly jealous Gabriel slams Trevor against a bookcase in anger. Elle shocks him to stop him from hurting Trevor. He throws Elle into the other room and orders her to get out. Gabriel holds Trevor against the wall and telekinetically slices open his head. Elle runs across the street to seek refuge in the van, as Sylar finishes taking Trevor's ability. Shocked at what he did, he runs into an empty room.
Angela wonders when Arthur lost his soul and he refuses to apologize for his great plan. Arthur clutches at his stomach in pain and realizes that the soup is poisoned. He falls to the floor, dying. Angela tells the Haitian to incinerate Arthur’s body but their plans are stopped short when Nathan comes back home. He finds his father on the floor. Nathan assumes his father is having a heart attack and calls the EMTs.
Noah reports to his superiors saying they have wrapped up the mission and he has one more thing to deal with. Elle is still angry but Noah says they’ll be tracking him down one day. Elle feels Gabriel could have been saved but Noah insists that wasn’t the assignment and they follow orders. He sees a cab and leaves Elle, saying that his ride is here. He enters the cab after its previous occupant, Peter Petrelli, gets out. Mohinder is driving the cab and Noah tells him to proceed to JFK Airport.
Angela and Nathan wait at the hospital. Nathan wants to call Peter, but Angela insists that they wait until they have something to call him about. Finally, a doctor comes tells them Arthur is dead due to a heart attack. Angela asks for an immediate cremation and Livitz tells them to go home and get some rest so that they can deal with the paperwork in the morning. Livitz goes back into the Arthur's room. He tells Arthur, who is lying in a hospital bed, that it’s done. Arthur speaks to him telepathically, giving him instructions to find another body for the cremation. Livitz informs Arthur that the poison damaged his nervous system, and that the paralysis is permanent.
At the funeral, Nathan and Peter remember their family dog Izzy, and how it was the only thing that ever disobeyed Arthur. As they speak fondly of their father, Angela says that Arthur wasn't a god and they shouldn't idolize him: he was deeply flawed in ways they’ll never know.
In the present, Hiro wakes up and says they have to warn Angela and Nathan that Arthur is still alive. He also thinks they should contact Meredith to deal with her brother. Ando tells him to slow down and they hear a scream. Running out of the hut, they find Usutu's bloodied and decapitated corpse on the ground, with the head nearby. As he goes to examine it, Arthur appears behind him and remarks that Hiro’s been dreaming about him. He grabs Hiro’s head as he screams in pain as Ando looks on in horror.
Jesse Alexander and Jeph Loeb get axed
Major shakeup on the staff of NBC’s “Heroes” came down on Sunday with the firing of co-exec producers Jeph Loeb and Jesse Alexander.
Both scribe-producers had been with the show since its first season and have led the day-to-day production operation under the direction of Tim Kring.
It’s rumored that Alexander and Loeb were let go because of NBC execs’ frustration with the creative direction of the show. The show is said to have been grappling with hefty budget overruns this season, that are going well beyond its already sizable $4 million per-episode budget.
Sunday evening, CBR News spoke exclusively with Loeb who said, “As of today, Jesse Alexander and I have left ‘Heroes.’ I’m incredibly proud to have been a big part of the success a show with eight Emmy nods and a win this year for NBC.com. I will miss the superb cast and writing staff and wish everyone the best.”
Loeb has completed writing/producing the fall finale, the last episode of the “Villains” chapter titled “War.”
