A sinister stranger takes no prisoners along the street of screams.
Escaping captivity at Primatech Paper, Sylar tormented Sandra Bennet, only for her husband to come to her rescue. Sylar got away, but not before Mr. Bennet unloaded a few rounds into him...

Summary

After escaping from the Bennets' home, a badly injured Sylar looks for a way out of Texas. He hitches a ride with a trucker, but when he realizes the man isn't going to Virginia, he uses his telekinesis to kill the man with beer bottles. After rapidly absorbing the truck's operation manual using his enhanced memory, Sylar drives the truck to Virginia Beach, VA.

In Virginia, police attempt to pull him over, but Sylar freezes the roadway, causing the pursuing vehicles to wreck. At a police roadblock, Sylar sends the truck off the side of the mountain road, leaping to safety in a nearby tree at the last moment.

In Virginia Beach, Sylar approaches the home of the last name he remembers from Chandra Suresh's original map: that of Zane Taylor. Just as he's wondering how he'll find new victims, Zane answers the door, calling him "Dr. Suresh" — and Sylar has his answer.

Notes

  • Sylar introduces himself to the trucker as "Drew O'Grady". He probably created the alias from two headlines in a newspaper he saw shortly before meeting the trucker. The headlines read, "President drew fire for welfare comments" and "O'Grady Farm to be purchased back..."

Trivia

  • The "Northeast Brewing Company" abbreviates to "NBC". Artist Jason Badower said NBC was very specific about the name they wanted for the trucking company. Jason didn't realize the abbreviation while creating the novel; had he picked up on it, he would have designed a different logo.
  • When Sylar narrates his story, his words are denoted by red boxes instead of the traditional white boxes. This is consistent with his narrations in Turning Point.
