The “previously” scenes almost all feature the Haitian. Since he hasn’t appeared much this season, that’s quite an achievement. He also doesn’t appear this week, so what the hell?
Samuel watches the film that Hiro stole, in which Chandra Suresh talks about the increase in powers. Once again, I’m struck by the fact that in this segment, Chandra clearly says that all powers are increased by the proximity of more Heroes, but other segments indicate this is specific to Samuel. Samuel gets a good laugh out of watching his infant self wreck the place. Hiro pounds on the door of the trailer and continues calling him “Butterfly Man”, and I’m going to continue assuming that this is a reference to the Monarch of Venture Bros. fame. Samuel assures him that he’ll get Charlie back, just not right away.
