- Ando Masahashi: [in Japanese] What happens if we get to New York and it explodes?
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] If we get to New York, it won't explode. That's the idea, it's the heroic journey.
- Ando Masahashi: [in Japanese] It's your heroic journey.
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] It's our heroic journey. You don't have to have superpowers to be a hero.
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] I should have saved them.
- Ando Masahashi: [in Japanese] You'd have been killed.
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] I've been given a gift, Ando. I'm supposed to use it to help people. To save people. I failed.
- Ando Masahashi: [in Japanese] You're being too hard on yourself.
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] Maybe I'm not the hero I thought I was.
- Ando Masahashi: [in Japanese] Hiro, every hero is on a journey to find his place in the world. But it's a journey. You don't start at the end. Otherwise, they can't make a movie about it later.
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] What if I'm on the wrong path? What if I was supposed to save those people?
- Ando Masahashi: [in Japanese] You can bend time and space. Maybe when you can do it better, you can come back here and fix things.
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] Like a do-over?
- Ando Masahashi: [in Japanese] Exactly.
- Hiro Nakamura: [in Japanese] A do-over. I like that.

- Mohinder Suresh: [voice over] Evolution is an imperfect, and often violent process. A battle between what exists and what is yet to be born. In the midst of these birth pains, morality loses it's meaning. The question of good and evil, reduced to one simple choice: Survive? Or perish?
- Sandra Bennet: [Regarding the meeting with Claire's biological parents] Should you be eavesdropping?
- Mr. Bennet: Yes.
- Sandra Bennet: Is that what you're calling them? The bio-parents? Oh that's so cold and impersonal. And fitting.
- Peter Petrelli: Grab that side. I must be missing something. Some sign of where they are. See these paintings, they fit together like pages in a comic book. There's a panel missing. What was right there?
- Isaac Mendez: Nothing. This is everything I painted last night. But there's a piece about that size. I painted it weeks ago. Simone has it.
- Peter Petrelli: Simone?
- Isaac Mendez: She took a bunch of my painting to sell. It's with them.
- Peter Petrelli: What was it of?
- Isaac Mendez: I don't remember. I was high.
- Peter Petrelli: Then we need to get it back.
- Isaac Mendez: Tell her a guy from the future said he needed it. I'm sure she'll love that.
- Niki Sanders: The police are right outside. If I scream, they will be in here in two seconds.
- D.L. Hawkins: Then I hope you don't scream.
- Claire Bennet: [about birth parents] How am I supposed to ask someone if they're a freak when they're probably just gonna lie about it like I do?
- Zach: Why don't you just ask them what happens when they cut themselves? Or you could just cut them and find out.
- Claire Bennet: Uh-huh. Probably just think I was all bitter because they gave me away.
- Zach: What if your biological parents raised you, though? It'd be an entirely different scenario.
- Claire Bennet: What if they can do what I can do? What if they're like me?
- Zach: Well, I hope they're not. No offense, but I like - I like that you're the freak. It makes you more... special or whatever.
- Claire Bennet: Are you flirting with me?
- Zach: No. Believe me, no. Um, look, do you plan on coming out to your parents? I mean the ones who raised you?
- Claire Bennet: No. My dad would unspool. He's a really simple guy. He'd never be able to wrap his mind around something like that. It would break him.
- Zach: [sing-song voice] He's gonna find out.
- Zach: [when Claire's birth parents arrive] You sure you don't want me to shove 'em into something on the way out?
- Claire Bennet: Ha-ha.
- Ando Masahashi: We must use bathroom.
- Lowlife: Now? We're in the middle of a hand.
- Ando Masahashi: Sorry. Must go now. Had too much beer.
- Hiro Nakamura: [after Ando pushes him into the bathroom to get away from the men in the building] I don't need to pee!
- Hiro Nakamura: I couldn't save them. I just hid in here. A hero doesn't hide...
- Ando Masahashi: He does if he wants to live. We need to get out of here. Before whoever did this comes back.
- Eden McCain: I guess the flying Petrelli didn't fly.
- Mohinder Suresh: We were on the train together, and suddenly he started carrying on about a mysterious traveler who stopped time and told him to save a cheerleader. It was all very fascinating. I should write a paper on the experience.
- Eden McCain: Maybe you provoked him with sarcasm.
- Micah Sanders: Dad, how'd you get out of jail?
- D.L. Hawkins: Between you and me... I walked out.
- Micah Sanders: Out of prison? How'd you do it?
- D.L. Hawkins: Ain't no jail can hold your old man.
- Micah Sanders: Why not?
- D.L. Hawkins: Cause I got a secret.
- Micah Sanders: Like Superman?
- D.L. Hawkins: Yeah. Just like Superman.
- Jessica: [Niki finally confronts her alter ago in the mirror...] You need to pull yourself together.
- Niki Sanders: You're not real.
- Jessica: Oh, I'm as real as you are.
- Niki Sanders: No. No, I have a tumor or something. This is...
- Jessica: Poor little crazy girl.
- Niki Sanders: ...A hallucination.
- Jessica: Is that what you think you are? Oh, we're a lot of things, Niki, but we're not crazy.
- D.L. Hawkins: I'm taking Micah and I'm taking the money. Goodbye, Niki.
- Jessica: You're not taking anything.
- [last lines]
- Mohinder Suresh: [voice over] Evolution is an imperfect, and often violent process. Morality loses it's meaning. The question of good and evil, reduced to one simple choice: Survive? Or perish?
- Jessica: What do you think D.L. is gonna do when he finds out what we've done?
- Niki Sanders: What we've done?
- Jessica: [about D.L] We framed him, killed his crew, stole two million dollars, we killed those thugs in the garage, killed those little bitches at the poker game. We've been very busy.
- Niki Sanders: Those men were ripped apart.
- Jessica: Yeah, well... What can I say?
- Niki Sanders: But they didn't do anything to me.
- Jessica: Leaving witnesses would be sloppy. I did what had to be done. Like I always do.
- Jessica: And this is what we're gonna do now. You're gonna get the money, and you're going to take Micah as far away from D.L. as you can. I'll do the rest.
- Niki Sanders: D.L. can take care of me. I don't need you.
- Jessica: Niki... He'll think you're crazy. And then he'll take Micah away from us. He'll put it all together, and when he does... it's really only a question of whether he kills you before he leaves.
- Jessica: So you have a choice. You can let D.L. take our son away from us forever, or... you can do exactly what I say.
- Niki Sanders: Where's the money?
- Jessica: Good choice.
- Eden McCain: [on the phone] Suresh just left for India.
- Mr. Bennet: [on the phone] Then stop him.
- Eden McCain: [on the phone] I tried.
- Mr. Bennet: [on the phone] What about Peter Petrelli?
- Eden McCain: [on the phone] He claims he can fly but I don't have confirmation. Also, there may have been an encounter with somebody who can stop time.
- Mr. Bennet: [on the phone] Really? That's cool.
- Eden McCain: [on the phone] Evidently he had a message for Petrelli. He told him to save the cheerleader.
- [long pause]
- Eden McCain: Are you still there?
- Mr. Bennet: [on the phone] Yeah. Thanks for the update.
- Eden McCain: [on the phone] So, what do you want me to do with the precog?
- Mr. Bennet: [on the phone] Bring him in.
- Ando Masahashi: You came from the future and told them to save the cheerleader. Oh, and you had a sword.
- Hiro Nakamura: I had a sword?
- Ando Masahashi: Mmm...
- Peter Petrelli: Get to New York. We'll find out where the cheerleader is.
- [hangs up]
- Hiro Nakamura: [grinning] I had a sword!
- Sandra Bennet: DeeDee wants to breed Mr. Muggles with her poodle. A poodle, for God's sake. They call it a pomapoo or a pooranian. Mr. Muggles doesn't want anything to do with a breed that has poo in its name. "No, I don't," says Mr. Muggles.
