NARRATOR: Previously on Heroes.

l had a dream.

l know what we have to do now.

We need to bring this family together.

And then we need to go visit my sister.

Do you know about what happened at the place called Coyote Sands?

When your grandmother has a dream, it's a good idea to pay attention.

My father started writing the government

looking for information on an abandoned government project in the 1960s.

lf you know something. . .

Never said what but it was around the time his nightmares kicked in.

l could hear him yelling up here night after night.

MOHlNDER: The files are heavily redacted, but it mentions medical research

at a place called Coyote Sands.

My father was there.

There it is.

Peter and I are headed there now.

l spoke with Nathan. He and Claire will meet us.

l need you with us.

This is where our story really begins.

And to prepare for the future, you have to understand the past.

You want the answers?

Then you'll have to dig.

lt's time everyone knew the truth.

This is just wrong,

digging up these graves.

Why is she making us do this?

Mom has her reasons, Pete. She'll share when she's ready. Give her time.

Come on, give him a chance. Why?

Look who he's turned us into.

He knows what he's done, and he's carrying enough guilt for all of us.

But he's here, isn't he?

He needs our support.

Boy, he charmed you. Don't worry, happens to all of us.

l'm gonna go talk to her.

What are we doing here, Mom?

You said we came here to find your sister.

We didn't know you had a sister.

Look, we need some answers. Mom, what happened out here?

(HONKlNG)

(PEOPLE CHATTERlNG)

Angela? Angela and Alice Shaw.

(CHUCKLES) Good. That's everybody. Welcome to Coyote Sands.

My name is Dr. Chandra Suresh. Please, follow me. Take a snack.

Playground. The dining room. The game room.

We show movies every night. And the best popcorn you've ever had.

You have a funny accent. So do you.

So, where are you from?

Bombay, lndia. l've come a long way to meet you, to help you.

These are your quarters, and your parents are just across the quad.

Dr. Zimmerman will show you the way.

(BOTH CHATTERlNG)

Why do they have guns? lt's alarming, I know, but this isn't a prison.

The guards are here for your protection. We want to keep you safe.

Come on, let's get you settled.

(THUNDER RUMBLlNG)

l see you got the milk and cookies.

We wanted to give you the official welcome.

Welcome to Crapola Sands.

l'm Charles Deveaux.

The guy with the funny accent is Daniel Linderman,

and the guy with the glasses is Bobby Bishop.

l didn't think boys were allowed in the girls' bunk.

Yes, yes, well,

Bobby here, he wanted to tell you how beautiful he thought you were.

l did not. What?

You don't think she's beautiful?

(EXHALES)

Anyway, we just wanted to say hi.

l don't like this. l wanna be with Mom and Dad.

We already talked about this.

lt's gonna be fun. Just like camp.

Let's get you unpacked.

There is only toys and books in here.

You said pack what I need.

You need clothes, Alice. Pants, shirts, socks.

And how many times have you read Alice in Wonderland?

(SlGHS)

l wanna go home, Banana, and so do you. Prom is coming.

The doctor told Mom and Dad that this place is gonna make my nightmares go away.

No more screaming?

But what I have is genetic,

so we all need to deal with it, the entire family.

Who snuck you out to see Sleeping Beauty?

And who gave Jackie Jacobs an lndian burn when she stole your barrette?

l'll always be there for you, I promise.

But I need you to be there for me, too.

(EXCLAlMS)

See? Everything's gonna be fine.

PETER: Mom?

My sister, my parents, they all died here.

And if we don't come together, if we don't settle our differences,

l'm afraid history is going to repeat itself.

1961 was a different time. Kennedy was president.

We were all patriots.

When the government found out about us, they told us they could cure us,

and we believed them.

And they rounded us all up, and they put us here.

What happened here?

l don't know. I was lucky, l survived, but Alice, my entire family, didn't.

So, why are we here, Mom? You could have told us this in a restaurant.

Why here? Why are we digging up those bodies?

l've been dreaming about my sister.

Alive.

That doesn't make sense, but my dreams often don't.

They're open to interpretation.

They're confusing, but I think, I think

l have to see her for myself.

l have to find her body, find a piece of clothing.

Something, anything, to give her a proper burial.

You should have told us about this place,

that you had a sister.

l didn't want you to know the pain. Mothers are allowed to do that.

l'm allowed to protect you.

You're absolutely allowed to do that, Ma.

lt's my nightmare, Peter.

l never wanted you to know what I suffered. l tried to forget.

We made everyone forget.

Who's "we"?

How do you think the Company was formed?

lt started here, with a vow to never let this happen again.

We destroyed files, erased memories. We blackmailed, we killed,

anything to keep our existence secret. And it worked for 50 years.

Now, Noah and I have tried to fix this current situation,

but Mr. Danko has proved resourceful.

So, that's what you were trying to do?

Yes.

But you blew it?

Yeah.

The important thing is to put our secret back,

so we can all stop running, return to our lives.

lt's time to go back to the old methods.

You mean erasing people's memories and killing?

lt's a necessary evil.

l'm sorry about what happened here, Mom,

but it didn't give you the right to do the things that you've done,

and it still doesn't.

We need you, Peter.

l need you. The Company tore this family apart.

l'm not gonna be a part of it again.

Peter. l'll get him.

(WHOOSHlNG)

(GASPlNG)

CHARLES: You had a nightmare.

(SlGHS) What's it to you? Look, I heard you talking to your sister,

about how your nightmares come true.

Look, you're not the only one who's realized

there's something strange happening to them.

l don't know what you're talking about. Linderman.

How'd a pretty skirt like you get a scar like that?

A bicycle accident.

This place is one big science experiment, and we're the rats.

You're wrong. They're going to help us. She's right. We're freaks.

They're gonna make us normal. And you're blind.

Why do you think they have armed guards?

We've done nothing wrong. lt's not like we're communists.

My dad said we can trust them.

This has happened before. Nazis with the Jews.

America did it, too, with the Japs.

This is different. We're different.

What was your nightmare?

My dreams are confusing.

They're not always right.

You have to stop being afraid and start believing.

That doctor.

Suresh.

Don't trust him.

(DOOR OPENlNG)

What are you talking about?

Nothing. We're all going back to sleep.

My feet are cold, Banana.

That's what you get for not bringing any socks.

l'll find you some.

(WHlSPERlNG) Say good night, Alice.

(WHlSPERlNG) Good night, Alice.

l heard what you were saying to the boys, about Dr. Suresh.

Those boys just have an overactive imagination.

Remember when I got an F in History? Dad took away the TV and dessert.

l was so mad that l. . .

That night, a hail storm smashed his car.

So?

l think I can control the weather.

ls Dr. Suresh gonna come for me?

CLAlRE: Why didn't you tell Nathan and Peter about your sister?

Where's your father?

l asked for some alone time. With you.

l want to help you.

l was almost your age when I came here. I was 16.

Every other thought was about boys and the prom.

l was so naive.

l wish I had had half of your strength. You have courage and self-confidence.

You've overcome all those nagging self-doubts.

Maybe sometimes.

Not always.

(EXHALlNG) l'm still figuring it out.

You dug up those graves without batting an eye.

lf I had had your spirit, if I had trusted myself,

maybe things would've been different here.

Doesn't answer my question.

You ever do something so awful, something you are so ashamed of,

that you think if you ever talk about it, you might never stop crying?

(THUNDER RUMBLlNG)

(WlND HOWLlNG)

Where did this come from? This is what happened in my dream.

lt's impossible. But it is. lt's her. lt's Alice.

Dad !

Alice!

Come on, we got to get back inside.

You need to see a menu? No, just a cup of coffee, please.

Pete, we need to get through whatever it is that's between us,

and you're not helping by running away every time things get a bit tough.

Running away? So, when you just up and disappear,

you go wherever it is that you went, instead of staying in Washington

and dealing with the problem that you created. . .

(LAUGHS)

Pete, you know, nobody can look down their nose at me better than you.

1986 Mets. You remember that? Yeah.

How Dad had two tickets to the World Series,

that he had two other tickets to the playoffs,

and you convinced me to go to the playoffs with him.

l wanted to make sure you got to see a game, yeah.

Come on, Pete. l couldn't have known the Mets were gonna beat the Astros.

Come on. You got to see Mookie Wilson in that Game 6.

You saw him. l got lucky.

You got to see that game. l got lucky.

You think I conned you into seeing a playoff game?

Yes, I do.

Because even in your generosity, Nathan, you were selfish,

and that is just who you are.

Pete,

we have gotta find a way to forgive each other.

We have to find the capacity for forgiveness,

because without that. . . l'm trying.

Really hard.

(HlGH-PlTCHED BEEPlNG ON TV)

WOMAN ON TV: This is the Emergency Broadcast Network.

A severe storm warning is in effect for the Greater Valley area.

(WlND HOWLlNG)

Claire!

(GROANS)

(SCREAMS)

How did you find me? Are there more agents coming?

l'm not working with them anymore. I tried to stop them from the inside,

and they found out. You expect me to believe that?

lt's the truth. l tried and I failed.

Angela Petrelli brought us here.

Why? What business does she have here?

She was taken here as a child. This was a place for people with abilities.

Experimenting. And eventually murder.

What?

They killed hundreds. The graves are outside.

What are you doing here?

l found this.

Fifty years ago, my father was a doctor here.

l came to find out what he was doing. Now l'm not so sure I want to know.

Hello, Alice. Angela, can I talk with you?

Yes, of course, Dr. Suresh.

lt's okay, Alice.

Three wavy lines.

Who are they? Don't worry about them.

Just focus on the cards, okay?

Let's try again. A triangle.

l'm not reading your mind, if that's what you think.

l had a dream about this, about you showing me cards.

A dream? About this exact moment?

And does everything you dream come true?

They're dreams. They're confusing.

And what else have you dreamt about?

About you.

(SOFTLY) You're going to kill everybody here.

My parents, my sister.

l can assure you,

that's not going to happen. You are a good man,

and you've treated us with nothing but kindness,

but l'm telling you, it's going to get out of your control.

lf you leave, it destroys all our work.

Don't you see the benefits your abilities could have for the world?

l only see my nightmares.

Einstein said, "The life of the individual has meaning. . ."

". . .only insofar as it aids in making the life of every living thing

"nobler and more beautiful."

You've read Einstein.

No. I just dreamt that you would say that.

(EXCLAlMS)

You've said yourself that dreams are confusing,

open to interpretation.

Everything is going to be fine, Angela.

Now, this won't hurt a bit.

l tried to warn them. l tried to make them stop.

l tried to save them, save Alice. And now Alice is alive.

lf this is your sister, then why is she doing this?

She's angry.

You don't believe me. Storms happen.

lt's my sister. What if it's not?

No. I need to go find her. l need to deal with this alone.

No, it's too dangerous out there.

(WlND CALMS)

You okay? What is it?

Your mom. She's gone.

(SlGHS)

So what? My father was Dr. Mengele?

You don't know what happened here.

lt's hard to ignore facts. Which are what?

He worked here. Everyone died, he survived.

The most obvious answer is usually the right one.

Working with the enemy doesn't necessarily make you the enemy.

You should know that.

l met your father. He was a good man.

You don't know what he did, what he faced, what his intentions were.

Who are we talking about?

Just don't make any assumptions.

Not until you know the truth.

Any sign of my mother? No. Nothing.

She's got to be around here somewhere.

We'll split up, cover more ground that way.

No one should be alone.

Suresh, will you go with Peter?

There's no sign of her.

You really think her sister survived this?

l don't know.

What was this place?

lt's where he experimented on them.

l guess we're destined to repeat our parents' mistakes.

How do you mean?

l mean I am my father's son.

Experimenting on human guinea pigs.

But why?

Not for science, for self-interest.

You're being too hard on yourself, Mohinder.

We started this a long time ago, okay, you and me.

l know you. You're a good person.

Good intentions only go so far, Peter.

l'm weak, l am corruptible, and I am selfish.

We're all selfish. My brother's proven that point time and time again.

l know what it's like to have parents who are less than.

My mother brought us here because she wants to start a new Company.

She thinks it's the only way to keep this from happening again.

But that first Company she started was corrupt.

Yes, but why? I mean, was it surviving this?

l mean, this has to come with fear and pain and anger.

Maybe that's why you can get it right. Because you never knew this pain.

l have to believe that there is hope for redemption. I have to.

Even for Nathan.

Are you and Peter going to be all right? l don't know.

He blames me for everything.

Can't say as l entirely disagree.

You and I have made a mess of things.

Yes, we did.

Danko is working with Sylar.

Sylar can change his shape. He can be anybody.

He almost made me kill my wife.

What was the last book you read?

Because I can't remember.

Not the last book I read, last movie I saw.

Remember movie nights? We used to rent old movies, make popcorn.

When do we get to go back?

l don't know. l miss it, too.

You know, I should be a basket case.

Digging up graves.

l should be, but l'm not.

l'm just not.

l tried so hard to impress you,

both of you.

Becoming an agent, trying to stop the bad guys.

What you did was very brave. l was an idiot.

All I wanted to do was grow up.

Honey, that's all any teenager ever wants.

You can't fault yourself for that.

Maybe not.

Maybe I can.

There was a time when I wanted to become a doctor,

a chef, class president,

not an agent.

CHARLES: What are you waiting for? Say your goodbyes, all right?

ANGELA: Are you sure? Do we have to go right now?

CHARLES: Yeah. Linderman and Bobby, they're already on the outside.

We're gotta go right now while they're changing guards.

lt's our best chance to sneak out,

figure out where we are, how we can get help and save everyone.

Look, this is your plan.

l know. lt's just Alice. . .

She can't come. lt's dangerous, she'll slow us down.

l promised her l'd never leave her alone.

l get it, but we need you to.

So, keep her calm. Make sure she doesn't blow this.

How?

Lie.

(DOOR CLOSlNG)

What were you talking about?

(SlGHlNG)

Me and the boys are gonna go sneak out tonight.

Cool. l'm coming, too.

No. Why not?

Because you can't, okay? l just wanna hang out with kids my own age.

Are you going to make out? No. Don't think like that.

We'll be back in a few.

Cover for us.

l'm scared.

(THUNDER RUMBLlNG)

(SlGHS)

Listen.

l had a dream last night,

about you,

and it's going to be safe here. I swear.

You just have to stay here. We'll be right back.

Now say good night, Alice.

Good night, Alice.

(GASPS)

Alice?

Alice,

look at me.

Please, just

turn around.

Talk to me.

(ROMANTlC MUSlC PLAYlNG)

(SlGHS)

The cops don't believe me. Come on. We have to convince them, someone.

This is serious, and you guys are acting like children.

We're enjoying the moment. Do you want a fry?

Come on.

Let's have a dance.

You missed your prom, and you love this song.

l never told you that.

(KNOCKlNG ON DOOR) MAN: Hey.

We don't allow that in here. No dancing, not with a colored.

We didn't mean anything by it.

Just pretend like this never happened.

Your ability? You don't have to be afraid, Angela.

Socks. We need to get socks. For Alice.

MAN ON RADlO: This is the Emergency Broadcast Network.

A severe storm warning is in effect.

Flash floods and high winds have come out of nowhere.

We have to get back to Alice. Now.

(ROMANTlC MUSlC PLAYlNG)

(GASPS)

l'm alive.

You're not going crazy.

l almost didn't recognize you.

You look so old.

Do I look old?

No.

You look beautiful.

Alice, how is this possible?

How?

Have you been here for 50 years?

When I found this place,

it was packed with food.

When I went through that, l did what I had to do.

l stole what I needed.

(SlGHlNG)

Clothes, food.

Stuff.

Why did you stay?

You told me.

Your dream.

You said l'd be safe if I stayed here.

l. . . And I trusted you.

l thought l'd be safe here

and the world would be safe

from me.

From you?

Oh, Alice.

The night I left,

what happened that night, Alice?

When you left,

that doctor,

Suresh,

he came for me.

(lNDlSTlNCT CHATTERlNG)

No.

Alice.

Stop.

(WlND HOWLlNG)

(GROANS)

Alice! Alice, wait! Alice!

(SCREAMS) lt's okay. lt's okay, Alice. lt's okay.

Alice.

Sorry.

(GROANS)

(GlRL SCREAMlNG)

GUARD: Get back inside, now!

(GUNS FlRlNG)

(GlRLS SCREAMlNG)

(SOBBlNG)

You don't have to stay here anymore. Let me help you.

lt's time to go home.

l have socks for you.

Since that night, whenever I feel lost,

whenever I don't know what to do,

l steal socks for you,

to remind myself there are simple ways to protect the ones we love.

You don't ever have to be cold again.

l am so sorry.

Oh, Banana.

lt's not your fault.

Yes, it is.

l lied to you.

That night, I thought I was doing the right thing.

l was trying to protect you.

l was trying to save you.

You. . .

l'm so sorry.

You.

(WlND HOWLlNG)

You. l'm so sorry!

(SCREAMlNG)

PETER: Mom !

Calm down. Alice, calm down !

Calm down. Calm down.

(YELLlNG)

(SOBBlNG)

l have to talk to her. She's gonna kill you.

No. I have to talk to her.

Alice! Stop!

This isn't their fault.

This is your family.

This is my son. He's your nephew, Alice.

You have a family, and they're the only ones who can make everything all right.

Don't punish them for my mistakes.

(WlND CALMS)

l am so sorry.

(PANTlNG)

Come on. Let's get out of here. Let's go home.

Say goodbye, Alice.

No.

(EXCLAlMS)

(SlGHS)

Alice is gone.

She's nowhere.

Judging from her reaction, l think I know what my father was doing here.

Your father.

l found this in the lab.

lt may give you some answers about your father.

l don't know.

Storm covered the graves. They're all buried. Maybe it should remain that way.

Fair enough.

Let's get out of here.

l'm not going with you, Peter.

Why not? Maybe you're ready to move on, but l'm not.

l'm not ready to forgive myself.

Not yet.

(ROMANTlC MUSlC PLAYlNG)

ANGELA: We can never let this happen again.

Not ever.

No one can know about us.

They already do. Not for long.

l had a dream about the future.

We're going to form a group,

a company

that's going to protect people like us. We're just kids.
