As the elections and the destruction of New York draw near, Nathan meets up with Linderman, in tonight’s edition of the epic American drama. Hiro attempts to steal the sword, which leads him on a new path. Suresh and Sylar, meanwhile, make progress with the list at great cost, while DL begins to suspect problems at home.

Elsewhere, Isaac paints an even more terrible painting, and a new hero, Candice Wilmer, appears.

Nathan is played by Adrian Pasdar, Hiro Nakamura by Masi Oka, Mohinder Suresh by Sendhil Ramamurthy, Sylar by Zachary Quinto, DL Hawkins by Leonard Roberts, Isaac Mendez by Santiago Cabrera and Candice Wilmer by Missy Peregrym.
