Quotes:

Hiro Nakamura: Are you a time traveler too? Are you following me? What are you doing here, Butterfly Man?
Samuel Sullivan: The question is, what are you doing here?
Hiro Nakamura: I'm here to save Charlie.
Samuel Sullivan: And why would you be doing something like that?
Hiro Nakamura: You told me I could right the wrongs of my life by stepping on the right butterflies. This is the biggest. It's Mothra.
Samuel Sullivan: I'm here, Hiro, to make sure you understand the magnitude of your endeavor. To protect you. This isn't a simple spilled slushy. Look. You were on a specific path. Everyone was. Sylar and Peter and Claire. I'm making a tremendous sacrifice to make sure you succeed, Hiro. This place is a mine field. One mistake here, and it's kablooey, history. Awful lot of trouble for one girl. Pretty as little Susie Flapjacks is, is she absolutely worth it?
