Two months after the events at Pinehearst, Tracy is attacked in her home by government agents and is placed on board Flight 195. Peter Petrelli unknowingly replicates her ability and freezes a side of the plane in mid flight, causing it to shatter and the plane to crash. Tracy and Peter team up in an attempt to stop Nathan but Peter flies away and Tracy is captured and taken to a secure location in Building 26. She manages to escape her cell but is recaptured after killing an analyst. During Danko's investigation on Nathan, Tracy receives a message from Rebel informing her that help is coming.

Rebel stays true to his word and soon shuts down all the power in Building 26, allowing Tracy to escape. She frees Matt Parkman, Mohinder and Daphne but refuses to go along with them as she sees Daphne's injuries would slow her down. Noah Bennet manages to track her down and gives her the offer to turn in Rebel. Tracy takes the offer and is soon contacted by Rebel again, this time receiving a train ticket and a meeting place. Tracy is shocked to discover that Rebel is none other than her nephew, Micah. Micah is outraged to learn that she went along with their plan. The two of them attempt to flee. When agents begin to search the carpark, Tracy asks Micah to "make it rain" and to keep doing what he is doing. She tells him to stay ahead of the ice and steps out into the open, making herself visible to all the agents. As Micah runs, and Tracy becomes surrounded, she makes the ultimate sacrifice for him, completely freezing herself and everything around her in a huge "cold snap". Danko then approaches her frozen body and shoots it, reducing it to shards and supposedly killing her.

Tracy survives her shooting and meets up with Micah, convincing him to give her names of former Building 26 agents. Six weeks after Building 26 is shut down, Agent Harper returns home to find his kitchen overflowing with water. Tracy materializes from the water, reaches out to him and tells him that he is number four.

Angela Petrelli informs Noah Bennet of Tracy's recent actions and gives him the assignment to kill her. Noah initially denies the assignment and starts his car. As he does this, a jet of water begins to splash all around the car, drowning him. Emile Danko appears before he dies and rescues Noah, stating that Tracy payed him a visit. Danko offers Noah a partnership to kill Tracy but Noah refuses. Tracy, as a cluster of water "witnesses" this before escaping into the canalization.

At a restaurant, Tracy approaches Noah and tells him that he is "number five". Noah comments that he believed he would be the lucky one who got away and asks her if that is still possible. He tells her that she is not a killer and Tracy becomes angry, stating that because of him and what the government did to her, a killer is all she is. Noah tells her that he can help her and she says that he wishes it could be that easy. She stands and leaves Noah alone in the restaurant.

Tracy later goes after Danko in his apartment but discovers that someone has erased his memories of her. Due to this, Tracy decides to spare his life. As she is about to leave, a man speeds into the room and demands that Danko return what he took. Danko refuses and Edgar kills him before turning on Tracy. Tracy however, transforms her body into water every time Edgar slashes at her. When she gets the chance, Tracy grabs Edgar and freezes his arm, suprising him and causing him to flee.

She tells Noah about Edgar, prompting him to reach into Danko's stomach and extract a key. Later, after Noah is attacked by Edgar, Tracy goes to see him at the hospital. Noah tells her about Edgar and asks if she will help him stop powered-people. Tracy suggests that they help others like her instead. She is confused as to why he called her and he explains that he can no longer call his ex-wife. Tracy stays with him and the two of them eat chowder together.

Acceptance

Tracy soon goes to see Noah and tells him that she has gotten her old life back. Noah asks why she has come to see him and she tells him that something is missing. Noah suggests that she quit but Tracy tells him that she can't give up her life. Noah tells her that a fresh start is what is needed to start over and Tracy leaves, thanking him for the advice. She then goes to see Malden again. She tells him of her plans to use her job to help people and he suggests that they go upstairs to celebrate. Tracy goes to the restroom and her ability begins to get out of control. She manages to stop it before anyone can see her, but she quickly leaves the bar, telling Malden that she is not okay.

Tracy leaves and heads into town. She calls her old friend Dennis, asking for his help in releasing Jeremy from jail. She hangs up and sees Samuel standing on a street corner. He calls out to her and she walks up to him, demanding to know who he is. Samuel smiles and asks Tracy what she is planning to do with Jeremy after she busts him out. Tracy doesn't answer and suddenly the carnival appears. Samuel tells her that Jeremy would be safe with them. He also tells Tracy that it can be her home as well, if she wants it to be.

Habilidades de Humanos Evolucionados

Tracy congela sus ataduras
Tracy congela sus ataduras

Tracy posee la habilidad de congelar objetos, lo cual la hace capaz de reducir la temperatura de la materia a su voluntad. Solo ha mostrado esta habilidad una vez hasta ahora e inicialmente se vió sorprendida cuando ocurrió. Fue capaz de congelar enteramente el cuerpo del reportero, el cual cayó al suelo partiéndose en cientos de pedacitos. Se desconoce si puede llegar a congelar sin la necesidad de establecer contacto ya que todas las veces que manifesto el poder congelo cosas tocandolas. Parece tambien ser capaz de reducir la temperatura en diferentes zonas de su cuerpo, posible explicacion de congelación, cuando congela las correas con sus muñecas, en lugar de la palma de su mano o yemas de los dedos. Se desconoce tambien los limites del poder pero se presume que la debilidad esta en el contacto,
