Heroes 4-11 “The Fifth Stage”

Backstage at the carnival, Samuel tells kids a story. There is nothing sadder than child carnies. Gretchen keeps talking trash about the carnival. Again, nobody invited her. And then things get awesome, because Doyle the Puppetmaster shows up, all dressed up. He tells her how great it is living there, and he finally feels like he’s at peace. Doyle asks Claire if he can talk to her later. I might be crazy, but wasn’t it implied last season that Danko’s task force killed Doyle? Or was that a deleted scene? Either way, he was one of my favorites last season, so I’m glad to see him.
