I love this! Very in character for Hiro; I could so see him contemplating going back and changing things, as well as feeling kind of aimless and like his life wasn't going anywhere - especially compared to Ando - but realizing that he shouldn't play with fire anymore. This shows a lot of growth for him, and the reveal about Strauss and Sanders is awesome! It has a great sense of optimism, and a path that would be very good for Hiro.

You weaved in so many great tidbits of Hiro's life and experiences throughout the show, saying so much in so little, and nicely tied everything to the prompt. All in all, this is excellent! :D
