In the future, the same street the two BFFS were strolling down is in disarray and people are fleeing everywhere, panicked. Ando and Hiro are arguing over the formula. Hiro has half of it, and declares that Ando has betrayed him. Then they FIGHT! But not really, because in the future, Hiro is still a bit slow in the whole stopping time thing and whips out his sword, allowing Ando to shoot red sparks and a fireball at Hiro. In the future, Ando becomes Dragonball Z. Where's Godzilla? Hiro's incapacitated, and Ando picks up the formula, which is now looking extremely tattered, and flees. Hiro teleports to an overpass where he sees cars flying, buildings shatter into smithereens and general chaos. Now would be the time to play that Blue Oyster Cult song, you know, "Godzilla." And the Power Rangers theme song, because this is all a little predictable. Is Japan the new New York? Or is the world on fire?

This has probably already been made into a ride at Universal Stuidios.

Hiro is probably misinterpreting things as usual, as Japanese people freak out everywhere. However, an exploding car nearly decimates Hiro, and he squinches his face to get back to the present. He's standing on the same overpass/bridge, and distressed since he believes his best friend betrays him. They should really get a relationship counselor or something. Hiro's even more determined to get a hold of that formula now.

Question: Why didn't anyone ever make COPIES of the formula, scan it, and upload the file to a secure server, you know, replicate it such that it's not a flimsy piece of paper that can be stolen and tattered and get coffee spilled on it? It's not like they didn't have the technology to protect the secret better -- there was 1. a wireless remote to open the safe, which was basically in PLAIN SIGHT such that Helen Keller would've found it even if you rearranged the furniture in the office, 2. fingerprint scanning on the safe, and 3. a series of DVDs. You're killing me, Smalls.

Don't forget that the safe was secured on the top floor of a skyscraper in a country known for devastating earthquakes. How the hell did Kaito and Hiro's grandfather protect the secret so well before this? Hiro is starting to become the village idiot, in my opinion. Damn, even the Shanti virus was locked up underground in a treasure trove secured by a BFD (big fucking door) last season. Is this all because Cisco pulled out?

Somewhere on the Dock of the Bay, late at night

Mohinder tries to recreate that scene from Titanic where the old lady tosses her bling sapphire necklace into the ocean, only he's got a syringe and looks like a druggie. It's just not as moving. So you're in New York and you want to dispose of something. Why do you go to the abandoned warehouse district loading dock to toss a SERUM into the WATER SUPPLY which would accomplish the opposite of destroying the enzyme/whatchamacalit/Hero juice? Like, you'd have fish with powers. And three eyes. Flying fish, people. Imagine the possibilities. Also, the serum would produce at least one merman. MER MANNNNNN. *cough*

For a scientist, Mohinder is not the brightest Bunsen burner in the lab. It's probably because he's sexually frustrated and hasn't gotten laid in at least two seasons. Maya's boobies have been hanging out for the entire episode, so we can see where this is going. He's about to toss it over into the big blue sea, but then hesitates. Mohinder's list of to-dos quickly devolves into three things. Shoot up in your best imitation of Kurt Cobain? Check. Pass out on the dock like Anna Nicole? Check. Wake up to find two black guys rifling through your pockets? Check, check, RACIST.

Damn

Back at General Heroes Hospital, New York

Mama P is a total badass. And a bitch. And kinda a floozy, based on what we know about her sleeping around with the old legion of calamitous intent. Bitch is the new black. She's looking sadly over Nathan's sleeping body when Future Peter walks by the door. Mama P knows what's brewing, and she asks Future Peter what the hell he did with her son. Peter inherited his first abilities from her, and as we've guessed before, she has premonitions of the future in her dreams, just like Peter's dreams in Season 1. But if you can see the future, and it's not technically set in stone, how DO you change it properly? Guess it's not an exact science yet, so Episode 2, "The Butterfly Effect," will beat those time-travel theories to death.
