EPISODE 3: HIRO'S STORY...

Hiro's comic shows him in the future

Two days have passed since Hiro was last seen in the offices of Yamagoto Industries of Tokyo, Japan. Back at work, he fails to convince Ando that he transported himself five weeks into the future where he saw a nuclear blast obliterate New York City. To prove this seemingly impossible feat, Hiro reveals the "9th Wonders" comic book, which even includes a panel depicting the conversation he's having with Ando at this very moment.

Hiro shows Ando the comic

Hiro finds a spot indicated in the comic book where a truck is about to smash into a young girl. Ando doesn't believe it, but then a group of girls approach, including one with a red bow in her hair, just like in the comic. Ando races into the street to warn off the truck, but it's Hiro who saves the day by stopping time and removing the girl out of harm's way.

Hiro freezes time and saves a girl

Hiro and Ando rent a car and head for Las Vegas, which is indicated on the final page of the comic book as their next destination.
