The scene opens with Matt Parkman making love to his wife Janice. Unbeknownst to Janice, however, Sylar is in control, which Matt realizes later. He is enraged, though Sylar says it's a warning. Matt tells Janice about his problem (without referring to Sylar by name), and urges her to leave with their baby. After leaving a message for Mohinder Suresh, he opens up a beer. He notices Sylar being affected by the alcohol and begins to drink more. As Matt continues to get more drunk, he notices Sylar beginning to disappear. As Sylar completely disappears, Matt's wife and his Alcoholics Anonymous partner walk in. Matt exclaims his triumph before passing out in front of them. Matt wakes up later, with he and his wife embracing and his AA partner telling him they need to start over. As Matt leaves, Sylar reveals that he has taken control over his body. Matt says he'll never get away with it, though Sylar just chuckles. A worried Janice sees him talking to and laughing at no one.
