Meanwhile, a young hospice nurse, Peter Petrelli, tries to convince his politician brother that he can fly. A high school cheerleader, Claire Bennett, learns that she is totally indestructible and Niki Sanders, a Las Vegas stripper struggling to make ends meet to support her young son, discovers that her mirror image has a secret.
A gifted artist, Isaac Mendez, whose drug addiction is destroying his life and relationship with his girlfriend, believes he can paint the future.
