Season 1 / Episode 18: - Parasite

Claire Bennet: [Claire knocks on an apartment door; someone answers it] I'm sorry, I hope I have the right address. I'm looking for, uh... Peter Petrelli.

Angela Petrelli: [cut to Peter's mother Angela standing at the door] You picked a terrible time to do that. Peter's not here just now. You may as well come inside Claire. [in French] Au moins maintenant elle sera en sécurité... et pas grâce à vous! [translation: At least, now she will be safe... and no thanks to you!]
The Haitian: Ecoutez j'ai fait tout ce que j'ai pu... elle aurait bien fini par trouver sa propre voie... [translation: Listen, I did all that I could. She would have ended up well finding her own way]
Claire Bennet: Who are you?
Angela Petrelli: I'm your grandmother. And I've been trying to protect you, but you haven't been that very easy. Quite stubborn aren't you? Just like your Father.

TRIVIA

Halfway through the episode, we see Micah playing an actual Playstation 3 game, "Heavenly Sword", which at the time of airing was still in production and not scheduled for release until Fall 2007. The sequence shown was from the game's demo version, which wasn't released until several months after the episode aired on March 4th, 2007. This subtly suggests the whole story takes place at least a year in the future from when the show first started, possibly even further ahead depending on how long Micah has had the game by the time we see him play it.
When Hiro is searching in Mr. Linderman's vault for the sword, it's listed as being in drawer CRM-114. "CRM 114" is an alphanumeric code used in many of the films of Stanley Kubrick. One of the films using that code was A Clockwork Orange (1971) (see trivia), which stars Malcolm McDowell - who also appears as Mr. Linderman in this series.
