Disclaimer: I don't own the TV show, or the actors that appear. Also Gretchen is part of the main cast at this point, so her actress name isn't listed in the recurring credits. Thoughts are also in italics.
Gabriel : Previously on Heroes …
Cut to Sylar talking to Chandra Suresh in Six Months Ago
Gabriel: When I was a kid, I used to wish some stranger would come and tell me my family wasn't my real family. They weren't bad people. They were just…insignificant. And I wanted to be different. Special. I wanted to change-a new name, a new life. The watchmaker's son…tick…became a watchmaker. It is so futile. And I wanted to be important.
Cut to Sylar with Brian Davis
Gabriel: I can fix it…it's an evolutionary imperative!
He kills him.
Cut to Brave New World
Doyle: That's not you. You're like me.
Gabriel: No, I'm a hero.
Cut to Forward and Backward
Claire (turns to Gabriel with a look of distrust): You're helping us now?
Hiro: He is on a path to redemption!
Claire: Wow, I've never heard that before.
Gabriel: Look Claire, I know you don't trust me and I understand why, but please believe me I have nothing but the best intentions and just want to help. I've been working with Peter for months now saving other's people's lives.
Mirei: That's amazing that you really want to change. It takes a strong and special person to do that. (she smiles at him)
Gabriel: Oh thanks. (he smiles shyly)
Gretchen: Yeah, well we'll believe it when we see it.
Chapter Three: Atonement
(Flashback to Seven Minutes to Midnight)
(Sylar and Charlie are at the Burnt Toast Diner. She gets a large can and puts it on the counter to use the large can opener. She opens the can. She hears movement in the back room and looks around but doesn't see anyone. She continues to open the can.)
(A metal slices and Charlie stops moving. She looks straight ahead and blood is oozing down the side of her face and the center of her forehead.)
(She slowly tilts to the side as she falls to the floor.)
Present Day: August 24th 2010
Gabriel(in bed): Ahhh! (he breathes heavily in a cold sweat)
Mirei: Gabriel, are you ok?(She bursts into his room in a red shirt and dark brown pants with a worried look on her face)
Gabriel: I'm fine, thank you for your concern but it's not necessary.
Mirei: Sure it is. You had a nightmare about a crime you committed, didn't you?
Gabriel: How did you know?
Mirei: I've woken up sweating, panting and screaming over the same thing. Believe me; I know what you're going through.
Gabriel: What do you mean?
Mirei: I'll explain it to you later. Let's just say that I can fully testify and say what Buffy's boyfriend Angel said on his show. Atonement's a bitch.
Gabriel: You got that right.

(Peter, Angela, Emma, and The Haitian are at Peter's apartment, sitting at the dining room table. Peter and Emma are sitting next to each other holding hands, Angela looks at them with a thoughtful and serious look on her face, as does the Haitian. )
Peter: Why are you here?
Emma: Peter, just listen to what she has to say. (she signs the last part)
Angela: She has a point, Peter. You know, I always come with the best intentions and the concern of a mother.
Peter: This is about Claire, isn't it?
Angela: What she did was a mistake and I hope you realize that. These past several months of discussing it with her or at least attempting to, seems to be fruitless at this point.
Peter: What would you have me do? Convince Hiro to go back in time, and change that?
Angela: Ideally, but the damage has already been done. Disturbing the present would only make matters worse. However, Claire's revelation has caused us to have some very dangerous enemies, one of whom you have just met.
Peter: Who?
Angela: That young woman you fought against, Katherine Shaw.
Peter: Yeah, who is she? How do you know her?
Angela: Do you think it's a coincidence that her last name is Shaw? She didn't look like anyone you knew?
Peter(realizes what she's saying): What? No, it's not true. (Emma is speechless with shock)
The Hatian: It's true, Peter. She is the daughter of Alice Shaw, your cousin.
Cut to Gabriel, Mirei, Hiro, Saki, and Ando out in New York City, looking for people to help.
Hiro(smiling): So, everyone, today is a very important day. It is the first day of Mirei and Saki's hero quest. As such, they must be allowed to use their powers to help us.
Saki(in Japanese): That's great that you're doing this for us, Hiro kun. I was wondering, do you think as a reward, you could take us shopping? We could buy you an outfit that you'd look really handsome in.(smiling)
Hiro(in Japanese as he blushes): Oh, that's so sweet of you, but now we must focus on our duties as heroes! ( his face turns serious)
Saki(in Japanese): Yes, of course, Hiro kun. (this causes him to blush further, Mirei starts laughing.)
Gabriel: Is he always this clueless?
Ando: Always, girls don't flirt with him much, so he misses it.
Mirei: Guys, hate to be a killjoy, but that apartment is on fire. (she points to a large white apartment engulfed in flames where piercing screams are heard)
Gabriel: That's our cue. (they run towards the apartment)
(As they run, Peter flies above them with Emma)
Peter: Hey guys, need help?
(They all smile up at him)
Ando: About time!
(NYPD questioning room: Matt and Ray are standing while Vincent McCormick is sitting on a chair, completely silent)
Ray: Look, McCormack, I'm this close to burning a hole in that wall before you answer us.
Matt: Ray, don't!(before he can stop him, Ray raises his hand out and a red laser beam emerges from his hand and burns a hole in the green wall)
Matt: this is why you should listen to me more often.
Ray (thinking): No, this is why you need to stop going easy on this fool, and start reading his damn mind.
Matt: Ok, got a point.
Vincent: You're not getting a damn thing from me.
Matt: That's what you think, pal. Now tell us who do you work for?
Vincent: Lionel Atwood.
Ray: The journalist?
Matt: That's our guy. What is his plan?
Vincent: He'll make us from evolved humans to gods. The more stories he writes about us, the more everyone will fear us; we'll never be persecuted again.
Matt: The young woman he hired, Kat Shaw, who is she?
( Kat teleports into the room, in an all black ninja outfit and removes her mask. Matt, Ray and Vincent turn around to face her)
Kat(smiling): You're about to find out.
Meanwhile, Gabriel, Mirei, and the others are inside the building, and Mirei(invisible to protect her body from the flames) is holding a light haired boy in her arms while Gabriel is carrying another one who is his younger brother. They are both unconscious.
Mirei: Where are their parents?
Gabriel: I don't know, Hiro, Ando and the others are looking for them. So far these kids are the only people in the building.
A voice shouts: Gabriel! Mirei! (it is revealed to be Peter, with Emma, Hiro, Saki and Ando behind him)
Mirei: Hi, did you find their parents?
Peter: No, we didn't. Wait, I know these kids! (he says as he looks at them)
The boys start coughing and open their eyes.
Saki: Who are they?
The boys: Uncle Peter?
Peter: They're my nephews, Simon and Monty Petrelli.
A female voice from afar: Awww, isn't that sweet? I just love family reunions, don't you Mirei?
Emma: Who's that?
Mirei(trembling as she becomes visible): That's a voice I hoped to never hear again. (they turn around to see a young Asian woman(played by Jamie Chung) around Mirei and Saki's age, with dyed light brown hair in a ponytail and a tight red outfit, wearing a sinister smile as she emits water from her hands to put out the fire)
The woman: It was getting a little too hot. Besides, I'd rather take you all on by myself; it's been too long anyway, hasn't it?
Mirei: Lane, get out! I don't want to hurt you!
Lane: Too bad, sweetheart, I do. (she pushes her against the wall with telekinesis as Mirei yells, she keeps her there)
Hiro: Do not touch her! ( he runs to attack Lane but she throws her arm out and uses telekinesis to throw him on the floor)
Ando: Hiro! (he rushes to his defense but Peter and Gabriel hold him back)
Peter: Let us handle this.
Gabriel: Trust us.
Ando: You Peter, no problem. Him, I'm not so sure about.
Lane: Enough of this! Now, who's next?
Gabriel(anger in his eyes): You! (he raises his arm out and uses his telekinesis to push her on the ground, she yells and tries to get back up, but Peter pushes her down.)
Lane: You won't get away with this!
A male voice nearby: I think you mean that you won't get away with this. (It's revealed to be Matt with Ray, Heidi, Noah, Claire and Gretchen beside him)
Hiro, Ando: Matt Parkman is here!
Hiro(in Japanese): I did it!
Ando(in Japanese): I think you mean we did it!
Hiro(in Japanese): Oh yeah, right!
Matt: Good jog, guys, now it's time for this wannabe Elle Bishop to answer some questions.
Lane: I don't think so. Toodles Mirei. (she says before teleporting)
Ray: Damn it! I hate when they do that!
Simon: Mom!
Monty: You're here!
(They run to her as Heidi cries, holding them tightly in her arms.)
Heidi: Thank you Peter! Thank you!
Peter: it wasn't just me, it was all of us. Gabriel and Mirei were the ones that found them.
(Heidi looks up to them and smiles)
Heidi: Thank you both so much! I'll always be grateful! God bless you!
Gabriel, Mirei: You're welcome. (they smile together and smile at each other)
(They head out of the building and find themselves surrounded by cop cars. A cop named Officer Logan(played by Andrew McCarthy) comes out of one of the cars.)
Officer Logan: Where's the suspect?
Matt: I'm afraid she's gone sir.
Logan: You guys and your super powers ( he gets into the car and signals the other cars to drive away and they do.)
Ray: That guy can't be more annoyed than me, two crazy girls got away from us and we got more questions than answers.
Noah: Don't worry, they'll be back.
Claire: They always are.
Gretchen: So, that woman was a friend of yours?
Mirei: Yeah, in another life.
Noah: Why don't you tell us more about her.
Saki looks at her with uncertainty.
Saki(in Japanese): Are you sure you want to do this?
Mirei(in Japanese): I have no choice. (She turns back to the others.)
Mirei: Let's start from the beginning, shall we?
