Quotes 

• Danko : Right now, you're the President's golden boy. If you pull this off, you can write your own ticket. The downside is, it goes south. You can kiss your political career goodbye. Go back to playing house in your momma's mansion.

  Nathan Petrelli : We're all replaceable - some of us more than others.

• Nathan Petrelli : Young lady, you're headed back to Costa Verde.

  Claire Bennet : So, that's it - I just dance away to college, pretend everything is all hunky-dory?

  Nathan Petrelli : Something like that, yeah.

  Claire Bennet : [sarcastic]  So I get a pass. And everyone I know just... disappears - except for Senator Sky-Boy of course, because he's got everything under control.

• Danko : [of the fugitives]  These people of yours are dangerous.

  Nathan Petrelli : These people are going into custody. We're not assassins.

  Danko : If you have a rabid dog, you don't put a chain around its neck and pray for miracles. You put it down!

• Nathan Petrelli : [about Danko]  Don't worry about him, he's useful. Until he's not.

• Nathan Petrelli : You need to give yourself up now. I can promise you won't get hurt.

  Tracy Strauss : Your promises haven't been worth much lately. You'll have to do better.

  Nathan Petrelli : This isn't a negotiation. You don't have anything I want.

  Tracy Strauss : I have Peter.

• Nathan Petrelli : What I've come to realize is that these powers just lead to chaos. Good people, through no fault of their own, cannot control it. It just leads to disaster.

  Tracy Strauss : You son of a bitch. Maybe that's what you tell yourself so you can sleep at night. But this is about you - your ambition. It's all you are, Nathan. It's all you ever were.
