Previously, on Heroes.

There's a lot of change going on with me.

Really? Yeah.

It's like when I look back on my life, it just seems like it's not my life I'm

looking back on.

It's a midlife crisis. That's all this is.

Pete, it's me again.

I've left you three messages you need to call me.

Something's happening to me, and I think you're the only person who's gonna

understand what it is.

For years, I've put my job ahead of my family, and I'm eating cereal for

and a strange man is answering my wife's phone.

There's no way to live.

So what did we win?

A compass.

A broken compass.

You can never change the past.

It's bad. If you want to change one thing, that's how you do.

What if I could make it so that Danko wasn't interested in you anymore?

Why do you want to do this for me?

Maybe we're both looking for redemption.

I want my old life back. I go back to my half martinis and overpaid mafia.

I've got bad body double trouble.

Oh no. My bad body double.

I've got bad body double trouble.

Bad body double.

I've got bad body double trouble. Oh dear.

My bad body double.

My bad body double trouble.

She's trouble.

She's trouble.

Excuse me.

Tracy, is that you?

Hello, Governor.

I'm back.

I have something to tell you.

What is it this time?

It's not that.

I want to tell you something.

You and I have never been in a relationship, have we?

I've always been serious, but you're... I've always been not serious.

That's right.

But I don't think it's going to change soon.

Because we're the only ones in Nakamura Prefecture.

Why are you suddenly coming back?

Actually... I've decided to marry Ando.

Oh, you're getting married!

Why? We've been dating since high school,

haven't we?

Oh, I see.

Congratulations.

I'm glad.

I'm really happy that you like Hiro and take his place as your father.

Of course I'm happy.

Ando -kun.

I'm glad.

Hiro said he'd do it for me.

Did you really say you were going to do it for your father?

Yeah, I made you a song.

Hiro, the ceremony is next year.

What are you going to do if you're not here?

Oh, I remembered.

I have one thing to tell you on the list.

What is it?

Stop the list, Hiro. No, I can't.

This is...

I don't know.

I don't know.

My name is Tadashi.

I'm on the roof of 614 Kaminaka Street.

I'm going to jump from here.

614 Kaminaka Street.

Oh, it's here!

I'm on my way there!

Leave this to me.

I'll be right back.

Hurry up!

Whoa, that scared me!

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm here to help!

It's too late to be a hero.

My life is over.

Why did you call me?

Because I needed a witness.

Now everyone knows I'm dead.

You worked as a security guard,

didn't you?

No.

What happened?

When I was in high school.

I drank too much Sake.

I was in front of the 6th floor copy machine when I realized it.

So, I copied it.

O -shi -ri?

That's not a big deal.

I used to joke about it too. When my family asked me why I was fired,

I was so humiliated.

If I were...

What if I go back in time and say I can fix your mistakes?

I can't do that.

See you later.

Nathan. Mom.

What brings you to D .C.? You cleaning out the garage?

Yes, as a matter of fact. Here, come look.

Just what the doctor ordered.

A trip down memory lane.

Last we spoke, you said something about looking back on your life and it feeling

like someone else's?

Well, Nathan, this is your life.

Gee, Mom, you didn't really have to do that.

Yeah, I don't recognize any of this stuff.

Well, of course you do. Come on, pick something up.

Ma, really, I don't... Here.

Used to be your favorite toy.

Uncle Tim bought this for me when we took that trip up the coast.

I was in the back seat of the car.

That's when you decided you wanted to be a fighter pilot.

You remember?

Yeah.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

Literally.

Is there something wrong, Nathan?

No, everything's fine.

Come on, what happened to you?

I mean, it feels like you fell off the face of the earth.

It was family.

It was a family crisis. It was complicated and dramatic.

And it's behind me.

So, you're back.

I'm back.

And I'm looking for work. Not anymore, you're not.

I can use you back in New York. That is, if you're willing to come work for me.

I'd be a fool to turn it down.

Terrific.

So what's going on?

I could use your help to ease some legislation through the minefields. You

cut a few corners, charm a few regulators.

It's right up your alley, Chase.

Right, baby?

Not a problem, Governor.

Have dinner with me.

Tonight.

We can discuss the particulars.

So happy to have my tiger lady back.

Hey, Noah, you got a minute?

Sure, come on in.

I thought you wanted nothing to do with me.

I need to show you something.

That's a very nice arm.

No, it... There was a tattoo.

Right here, I noticed it last night. Mystery tattoo?

No, it was a compass.

Just like the one that you pulled out of the safe deposit box. Mystery compass

tattoo? I know where you're going, Noah, and I'm not seeing things. It was

there. I thought you'd help me.

I don't know what we're going to do, though, Peter.

Seriously, are we going to go on the road and search for this speedy guy with

the knives and uncover some giant conspiracy?

Not particularly. You want to get cut up again?

No, I don't.

That's why I'm telling you I'm not up for it.

That's all.

Got it.

So what am I doing here?

Sorry about it, you know. Not at all. Anytime.

Claire. What are you doing here?

I had to ask your dad a question. He told me to clear my head up, but...

I gotta go.

I gotta be at work in ten minutes.

Ten minutes? You live in New York City.

New power.

Ask your father about it.

Just a fishing expedition.

Put them out to anything and it's over. Can I get you something to eat? A bowl

of cereal?

Did you really say you were going to stop my father?

Huh? Ah!

What happened to your face?

Huh? Oh, it's my father -in -law.

I didn't see you, Tadashi.

Tadashi? I'm trying to tell you something important right now.

Who's Tadashi?

It doesn't matter.

The important thing is that I went back to the past and stopped Tadashi from

copying his own documents.

And he should be going back to his workplace,

not the rooftop.

Okay.

Look at the situation. Hey, wait.

This is the time to show off, right?

Go to your sister and tell her the truth.

Hiro's dialed.

Hiro's dialed.

Any problem?

My name is Tadashi. I'm on the roof of 614 Kaminaka Street.

I'm going to jump from here.

Tadashi?

Hayabara!

Whoa, that scared me!

I'm sorry.

I hurt my family's name.

My life is over.

No way.

It's a mistake.

I fixed it.

What? Tell me what happened.

It started when I took a copy of me.

But I stopped you from going to the company's birthday party.

It's not a birthday party.

It's His Majesty's birthday party.

Val, before you put that in...

The guy didn't tell us he was dying back. Hey!

I left you three messages.

I'm so sorry, man. I'm so sorry.

I've been slammed. Are you okay?

Yeah, I need to talk to you.

Can I wait?

Five minutes.

So what's up?

When did that start happening? A couple days ago. I'm like a Swiss army knife of

superpowers now.

It's a new power every day.

I guess it runs in the family.

Yeah, but there's something else.

What? I'm seeing things, Peter.

Memories. Images.

Memories, but they're not my memories.

Not exactly.

I'll touch something and... It's freaking me out.

I've read about this. It's called psychometrics.

It has something to do with...

Seeing the history of an object, where it's been, what it's experienced.

So what I'm seeing, it's real?

Possibly. I don't know. Why? What are you seeing?

You remember Kelly Houston?

Kelly Houston.

Before or after she ran away and broke your heart?

I don't think she ran away, Pete.

I really don't.

I touched my old baseball hat and I got a flood of images of her and me in a

pool. I know how all this must sound.

She was dead.

And there was blood everywhere.

You think somebody killed her?

I don't know.

If what I'm seeing is real, then yeah.

What would you do?

I think you gotta find the truth.

Go by the house. I mean, her mother still lives there, right? Really?

Yeah. Okay.

I'm gonna go with you.

Tell me the truth, Claire.

Why are you here? You checking up on the old man?

No. Can't a daughter just drop in on her father unannounced?

I worry about you.

Since Mom's gone and the company's not around, you just seem planless.

You always have a plan.

I'm fine.

That fine sounds very unconvincing to me.

You're not fine. You're living off of cereal and Japanese takeout. Well,

That's a good point. Tonight I order Italian.

What about a job?

What about it?

Well, I know it's a down economy and all, but I'm sure there's something you

do. Well, my particular skills aren't really all that marketable. That is not

true. You were middle management of Primatech Papers for over 20 years.

which time my skills consisted of lying to my family, breaking down doors,

bagging and tagging. On the plus side, you are a people person.

Lumber salesman.

Minimum five -year sales experience.

Ta -da!

You do know that was a cover, right? I never actually sold anything.

Yes, but you don't have to admit to that.

Okay, say they're at the interview.

And I'm the interviewer and you're the interviewee. Are we really?

Tell me, Mr. Bennett.

What do you think your greatest strength as a salesman is?

Well... If they won't buy from me, I can always just shoot them.

Nathan Petrelli.

Millie. What are you doing here?

Reminiscing about Kelly. I happen to be in the neighborhood. Thought I'd stop by

and say hello.

That calls for a drink.

What can I get you?

Oh, nothing. I'm fine, thanks.

Sit down, Nathan.

Thanks.

Nobody ever talks to me about Kelly.

Unless they figure it's a sore subject.

Truth is, I'm made of sturdier stuff.

So?

I was just going through some old things in my office. I started thinking about

Kelly.

Got to wondering if you... If I'd heard from her?

Well, I wish I could say that I have.

I wish I could say that all this time she's been living in the south of

that she became an artist, that she has a daughter named Francoise.

Do you ever wonder if maybe she didn't run away?

To be perfectly honest, there was a time when I thought maybe you knew more than

you were saying.

After all, we were away that weekend, but you were in town, Nathan.

And I knew that you and Kelly had been seeing each other.

I never told your mother.

But I hired a private investigator.

Turns out, you're in the clear.

Kelly, in fact, used her credit card to buy a one -way ticket to London

Heathrow, where she claimed her check baggage.

And no one has seen or heard from her since.

You think it's possible something else might have happened, Millie?

Trust me, I've been over this ad nauseum.

Kelly was willful and spiteful and...

Full of herself.

Add to that me not being the most attentive of mothers.

No wonder she ran off.

I've got a hair, nail, and body sculpting thing, and I don't want to be

understand. So you'll show yourself out? Of course.

Broke out the good stuff.

I've already had too much.

And my mom would kill me if she found out. There's no way she'll find out.

You're right.

You know, my folks won't be back until Monday.

Is that an invitation?

Do you want it to be? I don't know.

You've been drinking. I wouldn't want to take advantage.

Don't be such a prude.

You want it, Nathan?

Come and get it.

Come on, Nathan.

Come and get it.

You better give me that.

Come and get it.

Give me. No.

No!

You wanted to see me?

Millie called.

Chardonnay. She said you came to her asking questions about Kelly.

Do you have any idea what your trip down memory lane is doing to that poor

woman? Thank you.

Kelly didn't disappear.

She died.

I was there. What I want to know is why I can't remember it.

How would I know?

Because every time there's a secret buried someplace, I find you with a

behind your back.

You should write Mother's Day cards.

I'm going to get to the bottom of this one way or the other so you can tell me

you're... Fine. I took care of it.

And you don't need to know the details.

You made sure I wouldn't remember anything, didn't you?

You were drunk and foolish. So, yes, I took care of it, all of it. I had the

Haitian mark your memory. I disposed of her body. I bought the plane ticket to

London. It was an accident.

No, it didn't look like one, dear.

So what would you have me do?

Her death would have ruined your life.

I'm just waiting for the part that makes any of this okay.

I made a choice to protect my son.

You want to vilify me for that? Fine. I have been vilified for so much less. But

please, Nathan, don't destroy yourself over this.

So what, you're going to have your old friend Millie go on believing that her

daughter ran away because she was a bad mother?

Yes.

Millie has made her peace with us.

I suggest you do the same.

I'll be in touch.

Did you forget something?

Something I need to tell you, Millie.

And I'm not sure how to do it.

You all right, Nathan?

Look, I can't tell you how I know this.

But I'm not really sure I should.

What are you talking about?

Just say it.

Kelly didn't run away. She died.

And I was there. It was an accident.

And it was my fault.

She got on a plane.

There was no plane ticket.

She died, Millie.

And the whole thing was covered up by my family.

What kind of twisted, pathetic game are you playing? I'm just trying to tell you

the truth for once.

I think you should leave.

Please. Go.

I'm sorry.

So you never answered the question.

Greatest strength. Greatest strength. Well...

I would have to say that above all else, I am the company man.

You won't find anybody more dedicated to his job than me.

That's perfect. What lumber company wouldn't want to hire you? Yep, I'm a

people person.

What's the matter?

Oh, I don't know. It's just, you know, kind of sad when you look back on your

life and you realize it hasn't amounted to much.

What are you talking about? Talking about your whole life has been about

to help people.

How's it?

Because all I see is pain.

I shot them, cuffed them, locked them up, wiped their memories.

But I don't remember actually helping anybody.

That's not true.

You've helped plenty of people. Yeah, name one.

Me.

Life changes.

We all change.

Sometimes you have to remember who you were to figure out who you want to be.

Why do I suddenly feel like you're the parent and I'm the kid?

We'll take turns.

So,

you don't really want to sell lumber, huh? Nope, not at all.

Ando -kun, good for you. Hiro will do it for you.

Where are you going?

What are you going to do?

When I asked my family why I was fired, they were really upset.

Yeah, I know.

Why?

Because I tried to save you over and over again.

In the end, it was a waste of time.

You keep making the same mistakes over and over again.

Why don't I know that?

Well, that doesn't matter.

We...

I have to.

What do you mean by that?

First of all, I really don't like work.

If I don't want to be fired, I'll be fired 47 times.

I can't think of a way to get fired.

My advice is to do what you like, your hobby, and keep it.

Then you won't feel like you're working.

Maybe.

I thought I'd be able to do something else in my life.

And next, people's lives are a gift from heaven.

It's short -lived.

You can't keep it a secret.

Why do you know so much?

That's because... I'm going through an emergency.

Why? I didn't hear that.

Because I kept it a secret.

That's my last advice.

You can't hide from the people you love.

Especially your family.

We should accept the truth.

What if you're not ready?

It's okay, Tadashi.

Don't forget this.

Tomokai is waiting for you in heaven.

Are you... my friend?

Thank you, Hiro -san.

Hiro.

What you said was right.

I was running away from my fate.

I'll tell you the truth.

Really?

Hiro, where have you been?

I was thinking about something at the rooftop.

I have something to tell you.

What's wrong?

I want to talk to you.

But I don't have time.

What do you mean?

What's wrong?

I'm fine.

Something's wrong.

Call an ambulance.

Fancy meeting you here.

Am I that predictable?

You live upstairs.

How are you?

Okay.

So what brings you to my neighborhood?

I got my old job back with Governor Malden.

Well, that was quick.

Good for you.

Let's celebrate.

I'll buy you a tuna roll.

Yeah, I'm not really hungry.

So why are you here?

You got your life back, Tracy, and that's what you wanted, isn't it?

It just feels like something's missing.

Something needs to change.

Well, you got a job in government.

That's a good start.

Please, Moulton isn't about helping people.

Then quit.

I can't.

Do you know how many people would kill for my position?

Life changes, Tracy.

We have to change with it.

Maybe you just can't go home again.

Maybe you have to remember who you were to figure out who you want to be.

I gotta go.

I have a dinner with Malden and I can't be late.

Thanks for the advice, Bill.

Anytime.

I can't tell you how great it is to have you back, Trace.

I missed you.

It's nice to be missed.

Cosmo still your drink?

Look at us.

Just like old times.

Kind of.

This job, I want it to be more.

I want to set agendas.

Help people who can't help themselves.

So much for a small talk.

I want a job where I'm making a real difference in people's lives.

Trace, you don't have to work so hard to impress me. We both know what you bring

to the table.

I'll tell you what.

Why don't we skip dinner?

Let's go upstairs.

Make each other happy.

Just like old times.

Will you kiss me for a moment?

Sure.

Don't be long.

Everything okay, baby?

No.

Everything's not okay.

I don't understand.

I wouldn't expect you to.

Hello, yes, I'd like to speak with someone in the homicide division.

Yeah, I'll hold.

I've been looking for you.

What's the matter?

You are thinking about something.

Is it the new people Samuel's bringing into the family?

You think he'd be bringing in more if Joseph was alive?

I don't know.

It was his brother, and he has a right to his revenge.

No matter what it means for the rest of us. I'll tell you what it means.

I'm the one who left to make all the decisions for this family. I'm the one

decides which direction we travel.

We were just talking is all.

Come with me.

Time to find another.

You know you can tell me anything, don't you?

Of course.

If anyone tells you they're dissatisfied with me,

you're dissatisfied.

I'm not dissatisfied.

Good.

What are you doing?

Why are you showing him to me? I show you what you need to see.

Why would I need to see Bannon?

He retired.

He's no longer interested in us.

He may have changed his mind.

Nathan seemed very confused.

I wanted to make sure I heard his side of the story.

It was upsetting, to say the least.

Well, Nathan has always been overly theatrical.

You know, I'm sure that's why he's drawn to the spotlight of politics.

What exactly did he say?

I feel so silly telling you this. No, please. He's my son. I want to know.

He said that Kelly was dead.

That he was with her when she died.

I told him no.

She bought a ticket, got on a plane, never looked back.

Millie, I am so sorry that he bothered you with this.

Nathan... Nathan just hasn't been himself lately.

You know how much I've always cared for Nathan.

I apologize for his behavior.

No one should have to go through that pain twice.

I can honestly say I don't care anymore.

I just hope Kelly's happy.

I think that's about as close to closure as I'm ever going to get.

Would you excuse me just one second?

Hello?

Package is delivered.

Wonderful. Thank you so much.

Something important?

Not at all.

Good.

Where were we?

Closure. Of course.

To closure.

To closure.

God damn it.
