In the first new episode in over a month, HRG, in one cell, mind-communicates with Matt in another to get Ted from another cell as they plan their next move after escaping. Linderman shows Nathan his collection of paintings that were bought from Issac and talks of saving the world while looking at one with New York City being destroyed. Peter walks into Mohinder's apartment and finds him on the ceiling being held by Sylar. Mohinder watches as Peter and Sylar battle with various power skills ending with Sylar using shattered glass to kill the invisible Peter. Mohinder then takes Peter to Mrs. Petrelli before leaving. Nathan arrives in mourning then Claire, having just discovered Nathan is her bio-father, requests to be alone with Peter. As she pulls a shard glass from Peter's back of head, Peter suddenly wakes up. Peter convinces Nathan to talk to his newly found daughter. Nathan convinces Claire to go to Paris for a week, as suggested by his mother, during the final stages of his upcoming election in order to avoid a scandal. Linderman has a meeting with Jessica. He wants her (actually Niki's) son Micah for something. Jessica says, "No Deal." (Not an exact quote but you get what I'm saying) When Linderman arrives at her house, she seemed to have changed her mind. After Micah is gone, however, Jessica turns back to Candace, the woman who can change into other people, just as the real Jessica arrives. After Issac gives a departing fan his final works and his sketch book, Sylar confronts him and succeeds in killing him just like in his painting: by chopping his forehead off. We then dissolve to five years later as we find Hiro and Ando to when we last saw them: in a devastated New York. Hiro then goes to Issac's apartment where we see string of various articles and photos representing a timeline before he and Ando go back outside where Hiro meets his future self...Awesome episode from beginning to end. Loved the whole sequence between HRG and Matt as Matt keeps following his orders and the way some jump cuts were made here. I have to admit I cried when Claire looked at the dead Peter and said, "I didn't even get to know you." Hope Nathan keeps his promise of Claire coming back to the family after the election. The battle between Sylar and Peter was so rockin' and intense, I was beside myself! And the way they cut to Issac's painting of the chopped forehead just as it was actually happening should be scary enough to anyone under 12 watching. Poor Issac, rest in peace. Next week's episode, Five Years Gone, should be good.
