Matt Parkman
- [Sylar has asked Parkman to take away his powers]
- Matt Parkman: How am I supposed to do that?
- Sylar: Create a mental block, repress them, I don't really care, to be honest. All I know is that once I'm free from the temptation of my ability...
- Matt Parkman: M-hm? You're gonna be normal? I'm sorry, that ship sailed, what, fifty murders ago?
- Matt Parkman: [referring to Janice] If you hurt her, I swear to God...
- Sylar: That's the problem, isn't it? One cruel thought is all it takes. These powers make it so easy.
- Matt Parkman: I understand that, believe me. But you don't have to use them like this.
- Sylar: Except I do. The powers are me now. You've been there, dealt with the abilities, the constant temptation. Tell me, how do you compartmentalize? How do you keep them from overwhelming the rest of your life?
- Matt Parkman: You start by accepting the fact that... you're more than just your abilities. Come on, we're people first.
- Matt Parkman: I know exactly what scares you, Gabriel. And it's being alone with your immortality.
- Sylar: What did you do to me?
- Matt Parkman: I have trapped you inside your twisted mind. You're gonna be alone, Sylar, very much alone, in this nightmare that will last forever. And the best part about it is that when I leave here, you're not gonna remember what I did, and you're gonna live every empty day like it's real.
- Sylar: You said you would help me.
- Matt Parkman: Yeah, well, I guess there's still a little of you left inside me. Because I lied.
- [he pushes Sylar back in his seat]
- Matt Parkman: Enjoy hell.
