"Turn and Face the Strange" is the twenty-second episode of the third season of the NBC science fiction drama series Heroes and fifty-sixth episode overall. The episode aired on April 6, 2009.
Noah Bennet examines Sylar's corpse from the previous episode, who is in fact James Martin having shape-shifted to look like Sylar before dying. Noah becomes suspicious when Emile Danko doesn't give a clear explanation on how he managed to kill Sylar, but he is then surprised by a visit from his wife Sandra Bennet. Sandra is worried about the whereabouts of their daughter Claire Bennet, but Noah assures her she is safe. Danko and Sandra meet briefly, before Sandra leaves and tells Noah she will be staying in Washington, D.C. until she knows for sure where Claire is. Afterwards, the Danko that had spoken to Noah and Sandra before is revealed to be Sylar, who announces his intentions to the real Danko to utterly ruin Noah's life.
Noah checks on "Sylar's" body, removing the spike in his head. Seeing that he isn't healing, Noah orders a DNA analysis from the body. Afterwards, Sandra meets Noah in his apartment. Noah is shocked, however, when Sandra asks Noah to sign divorce papers, claiming she doesn't love him anymore before leaving. Noah later looks over the paperwork and notices her signature doesn't match that from previous documents. He also receives the DNA test results, and seeing that it matches that of Martin, realizes Sylar has shape-shifting abilities and that Sylar, not Sandra, had given him the divorce papers. Noah angrily confronts Sandra at her hotel with a gun, believing her to be Sylar, though he soon finds out she is the real Sandra. Noah explains what Sylar did, but Sandra furiously tells Noah to leave. Afterwards, back at Building 26, Noah pretends to be Sylar having morphed into him, and baits Danko with some files he claimed to have found. When Danko responds positively to this, Noah reveals himself and, holding Danko at gunpoint, demands to know where Sylar is. Danko reveals Sylar morphed to appear as an agent so he could track people with abilities along with his people. Noah confronts the man and ends up shooting him. However, the man fails to come back to life, and Danko says he has just killed an innocent man. Noah is forced to flee from the area, though the man is in fact revealed to be Sylar, having simply pretended to have died.
