Is it just me or could Peter have been a little bit more detailed when Hiro and Ando called him.
I mean, he gets a message from the future ("The painter, Isaac. Go to him. He will know. When I call you, you must tell me where we meet") specifically telling him to say to Hiro exactly where to meet him, but all he says is "come to new york."
Isn't that a little vague? I mean go to mapquest and get directions to a specific point!
... at least that's what i'd do if i got a message from the future.

Hiro already has the address because he has that comic book from the future. If you remember, he visited Isaac's apartment already.

Well, Peter is kinda new at all this. He's probably still trying to make sense of it all, and likely wasn't thinking entirely straight. =)

And I've got a feeling "where we meet" will end up being Texas.

Its a bit vague but they might just play it one step at a time like first come to newyork and we will take it from there. Peter is new at trying to save the world and it will take him awhile to truely grasp the concept of this. Along with gathering up the entire team of "heroes" including the cop trapped in his own little storyline..matt.

or mayb the director was trying to get in as much information with little effort or time as to fit this little scene in the 42 minutes that he has to tell a story..
u just never kno

I assumed that since he had Isaac's number he'd come there.

Maybe Petey simply assumed the same thing.

Then again, we know what they say about assuming...

Hiro got Isaac's phone number, so Peter may have just figured that Hiro knew the address as well, or would call back when they got to New York.

But that wouldn't have made for very good tv... "oh wait, can I get your number, wait, oh, shoot, let me find a pen. Needle, nope. Oh paintbrush... Isaac, can I paint a number here."

Plus, with caller ID, welll, maybe he has the number?
