Overview:

Hiro fools Daphne and Knox into thinking he stabbed Ando, although it turns out he used a collapsible blade and some fake blood. Daphne assigns Hiro to bring in Usutu, invites Mohinder to join Team Pinehearst (right before Tracy goes cryo on his ass), and meets Matt, the last of which is all kinds of aww. Meanwhile, Doyle traps Meredith, Claire and Sandra and forces them to play Russian roulette until one of them gets shot. Finally, Papa Petrelli dusts Adam (literally), clambers out of bed and greets Peter with a hug that saps his son’s abilities right out of him.

Overview:

Claire captures a Level 5 inmate who creates vortexes, but decides not to bring him in after discovering he’s a decent guy. It turns out Noah planned to use the same guy to suck Sylar into oblivion, but the inmate sucks himself into his own vortex rather than going along with Noah’s plan. Meanwhile, Mohinder cocoons Maya, Meredith gets forced into dinner with a puppeteer, Hiro stabs Ando, and Angela reveals that Nathan wasn’t born with his ability. The last of which has a lot to do with Papa Petrelli, who’s behind both Maury creating illusions of Linderman and Pinehearst building a superpowered army.

Overview:

Clairvoyant from Usutu’s mystery goop, Matt watches Present- and Future-Peter visit a future where superpowers are commonplace, where Peter’s a renegade and where Sylar’s a family man. Present-Peter absorbs Future-Sylar’s intuitive aptitude hoping it’ll help him avoid screwing up history, but Future-Claire, Knox and Daphne show up to apprehend Peter, killing Sylar’s son and provoking Sylar into nuking Costa Verde. We don’t find out if Sylar’s ability was worth that, but Present-Peter’s already warped enough to scalp Future-Nathan, so it doesn’t look good. In other news, Nathan rescues a suicidal Tracy, Hiro and Ando scuffle over a belt (I’m not kidding!), and Agent Sark is baaaaack!

Overview:

The Villainous Four hold up a bank. Everyone assumes it’s about the money, but Knox wants to lure Noah to the bank to kill him. What no one counts on is Angela assigning Sylar to accompany Noah, which turns out to be a surprisingly effective partnership until Sylar scalps the now-Peter-less Weevil. Meanwhile, Meredith forces Claire to admit she wants revenge on Sylar, Tracy discovers she was “created” by a guy named Zimmerman, Hiro and Ando botch their latest attempt to retrieve The Formula, and Matt’s apparently channeling Usutu’s clairvoyance with berries and music.

Overview:

Sylar visits Primatech and scalps Bob. Elle stops him before he can scalp everyone on Level 5 but gets fired from the Company by Angela, who’s now running the operation and prepping Sylar to recapture the escaped convicts. Also, it turns out that Angela is Sylar’s mom. No, you didn’t misread that. Meanwhile, William Katt shows up to extort Tracy with threats of exposing her as an online stripper, and Tracy literally freezes his ass off. In other news, Matt talks to a turtle, Noah recruits Meredith to protect Claire, Daphne outwits Hiro (again), and Mohinder goes from climbing walls to peeling flesh.

Overview:

Nathan’s shooter turns out to be Future-Peter, who’s trying to alter history so that everyone’s superpowers remain a secret. Nathan recovers (which might have something to do with Linderman, who may or may not be a ghost) and has an epiphany. Meanwhile, Sylar visits Canine Central and scalps Claire, Papa Sulu tasks Hiro with guarding a piece of paper (which he promptly loses), and Mohinder discovers how to give special abilities to anyone (starting with himself). Also, Matt’s now stuck in an African desert, Present-Peter’s consciousness is inside a superpowered convict, and Ali Larter’s playing a new personality. And Maya’s still around.
