Peter’s in the future with future Peter, where everything seems totally topsy turvy, so he decides to take on a dangerous new ability in his efforts to prevent the destruction of Earth. Meanwhile Hiro and Ando are given a new mission by Mama Petrelli (who manages to get through the entire episode without claiming to be anyone else’s mother) and Parkman is still on his spiritual pilgrimage. I can’t help wondering if Greg Grunberg has done something to upset the writers… Don’t forget to check out our latest Heroes vodcast – it’ll be on the blog straight after the episode airs.

In the first episode of a two-part story, Allison is really in demand, with Devalos needing help to investigate a fatal arson inquiry and Cynthia pressing her to apply her powers to some old cases that have never been solved. On top of all that, Joe’s mother pays a surprise visit, and Allison is worried about her reaction because they haven’t been together since news of her psychic abilities became public knowledge.
