Okay, uh. Hi. Some of you probably already know me -- I'm Peter Petrelli. Yeah, the brother of everybody's favorite senator. [ There's a small roll of his eyes. ] You think listening to his speeches is hard, try living with him.
Kidding. See, back home, Nathan's always been like this. Wanting to make a difference, wanting to make change. Wanting to really make something of himself. To bring some justice and honesty to the profession ... which would really be a change. It's what he's always wanted, and I think now he's finally getting to do that.
[ And then there's a gap that I don't want to fill in because this is an interview and Lois should be here somewhere. But later on ... Peter laughs at first, shaking his head and looking away like he doesn't want to answer because Lois is ~embarrassing him.~ But, then he gets more serious. ]
No, it's not like that. It's -- Look. When you become a nurse, back where I come from. There's this pledge. It's named after a woman named Florence Nightingale, and it's basically this. When you do what I do, you devote yourself to it. It's not ... You don't decide who you help. You just help. Give everything you've got to make sure that person gets what they need.
Because, when you do something like this, it's not about you. It's about saving lives. Which is so much bigger than just one person. And I don't think I know how to do anything else.
