"Honey, where are my shoes?" Elle yells from the hall. Sylar and Elle have moved into a small apartment and are just unpacking. Sylar's standing in the bathroom looking at his beard. "Elle, do you think I should shave?" he asks as he walks into the hall.
She smiles and rubs his chin. "No. I love your scruff."
He smiles back at her and goes back into the bathroom. "Your shoes are in the box by the door."
Elle walks over and takes out her shoes, sliding them onto her small feet. "Thanks. So, where are we going again?"
"To see Dr. Suresh," he replies.
"Wait, he knows you're coming? He knows it's us? How did you convince him..." She trails off. "What did you do?"
Sylar laughs. "It's me he doesn't like. He actually cares about you," Sylar explains.
"Why do we have to see him?"
"We need to ask him about your health... and the baby's health. We need to see if it'll have..."
She interrupts him, frowning. "Abilities? Do you think it will?"
"Well, we both have them... it's very possible."
"I don't want it to. I want it to be normal," she says sadly.
Sylar walks over and kisses her. "Don't worry. As long as it's healthy, it'll be happy."
They take a taxi to Mohinder's lab and Elle walks in ahead of Sylar. He stays in the hall behind the door as she says hello to Mohinder.
"Mohinder..." she sighs as she hugs him. "It's so nice to see you again!" She pulls away, smiling.
"Is Sylar here?" he asks nervously.
"You don't trust me?" she frowns.
Mohinder watches as the door opens and Sylar walks in, smiling widely. "Hello, Mohinder."
"No, no. I won't do anything for him. Why do you need my help, anyway?"
Elle smiles. "I'm pregnant."
Mohinder's eyes widen and he swallows hard. "With his baby?" He tilts his head at Sylar.
"Of course. I need you to tell me if it's healthy... and if it's superhuman."
"I... I'm afraid I can't do that," Mohinder apologizes.
Sylar walks closer and his smile disappears. "Sure you can," he grunts.
