20. The great big city's a wonderous toy // just made for a girl and boy
(Ella Fitzgerald - ‘Manhattan’)

Even though she lived in Los Angeles for longer, when Molly thinks of her hometown it's New York City she remembers and not L.A.

She remembers Mohinder taking her sightseeing while Matt was recuperating in the hospital, visiting places like the Metropolitan Museum of Art or taking the Circle Line tour. He said it was because Mr. Thompson never gave her a proper introduction to the city after bringing her there from California.

Christmas was special for all three of them, not just because it was their first Christmas together but because it was Matt and Molly's first Christmas in New York. At Molly's insistence they went to the lighting of the Rockefeller Christmas tree and a week later went ice skating at Rockefeller Center. Well, to be more accurate Matt and Molly skated; Mohinder sat on the sidelines and pretended to keep track of how many times Matt fell versus how many times Molly fell. On Christmas Day Matt and Mohinder treated Molly to a carriage ride in Central Park after opening presents.

On the whole NYC is grayer and noisier than Los Angeles. But it's where her family is. So while Molly herself may be in India, her heart remains in New York.
