Volume II of Heroes begins as Peter, Nathan and Matt's fates are revealed. As everyone tries to move on following the showdown between Sylar and Peter, a new force emerges that's working against the heroes.

Meanwhile, Hiro finds himself in feudal Japan where he meets his hero Takezo Kensei. Elsewhere, twins Maya and Alejandro Herrera try to get into the U.S. by crossing the Mexican border in order to get help with their deadly abilities.

Episode Quotes
 
Mohinder: (opening monologue)The sun rises on a new dawn. Yet few of us realize the debt we owe to those responsible for this. To those who dwell among us. Anonymous, seemingly ordinary. Whom destiny brought together to repair, to heal, to save us from ourselves. And they're still out there, among us. In the shadows, in the light. We pass them on the street without a glance, never suspecting, never knowing. Do they even know yet? That they are bound together by a common purpose? A glaring reality? To be extraordinary. And when destiny does anoint them, how do they hide from it? How long can they dwell in the shadows before either fate or their own flawed humanity draws them out into the light again? And how will they know what awaits them when it finally does?
 
West: You got a death wish?
Claire: Uh, you talking about that? I was just seeing how hot it was.
West: Pretty sure it's hot. It's called a flame.
Claire: Yeah. I was just kidding around.
West: Like you were this morning when you stepped in front of my car? That's okay. Made my morning interesting.
 
Angela: You're drunk. Thank God your father isn't here to see you.
Nathan: Or you, for that matter.
Angela: You killed your brother. Drove Heidi away. Drove your kids away. If you followed our plan ... if you'd done what you' were supposed to do, he would be alive now.
Nathan: To think I almost listened to you. You're evil, Ma. Get out!
 
Hiro: You are the hero Kensei?
Takezo Kensei: My name here is Kensei. But no one's ever called me a hero before.
 
Bob: (to Mohinder) Let's just say we have our own private Fort Knox.
 
Manager: You look at me when I talk to you! Do you hear me?
HRG: (grabs the manager's finger and twists) I hear you alright, now you hear me! I am done eating your crap. From now on I will work how and when I feel like it. I will take breaks when I want to, and you will not say a damn word to me ever again! Do you understand?
 
(about the burning town)
Hiro: Oh no! I broke history!
 
Angela: Let me see it.
Kaito: I don't take death threats lightly.
Angela: Someone's playing a trick.
Kaito: Are they? Charles Deveaux. Linderman. Your husband. All of them dead. Now there are 9.
Angela: So you think one of us send these?
Kaito: Yes. For the pain we caused. The people we have killed. There is no end to our suffering. I sought redemption by helping Hiro fulfill his destiny to save the world. How did you help your son?
Kaito: Angela. I'm leaving for Japan tonight. I suggest you disappear as well.
