It would be really easy to let Peter take the blame. There was a really big part of her that wanted to just let that go. Eventually, Sylar would probably remember on his own, maybe. Or she'd have to tell him if he didn't. Still, after everything the last few days, part of her didn't mind Peter bearing a bit of the blame for just a few minutes.

Except...this part really wasn't on him, and as much as she wasn't exactly known for fessing up to things and putting herself out there...she sighed, and brushed her fingers through his hair.

"He brought it, yeah. But I gave it to him. But only because I really didn't see another option." She still didn't. Samuel with possession of all of Sylar's abilities and conscious could have killed them all before they could have done anything to stop him.
