Seeing how Peter had just gotten finished with telling Claire the unfortunate news of Sylar's presence, he reacted a little too harshly when someone who shared the man's face suddenly headed over. The first thing he heard was the nurse's voice, which caused him to look up from his scrambled eggs and take in the familiar features. In the end, he couldn't stop himself from jerking in his seat due to shock, but he got a hold of himself soon enough.
Peter sent Spock an apologetic smile as he sat down and then watched as the nurse left them alone, eyeing her retreating back until he was certain that she was well out of earshot. Doing his best to focus on Spock's distinguishing ears, Peter remembered how he had actually wanted to track the man down to check in on him.
It looked like he was doing well enough, which meant that Sylar probably hadn't decided to target him -- not yet, anyway. Seeing how roommates were left with each other without any supervision, it really was the best opportunity for an attack of some sort, but maybe Spock had taken his advice to heart. Or maybe Sylar was just distracted.
Either way, once he got past the resemblance (one that still made little sense and was just eerie), Peter decided to get a conversation going. "Hey," he greeted, "how've you been? Do you get what I mean about Sylar now?" He wasn't going to bother using that fake name that the killer had apparently adopted.
This made two shifts in a row where Sylar was one of the main topics of conversation. Peter hated that he had to be so fixated, but if he started to slack off, Sylar would most assuredly notice and take the chance to terrorize or kill someone. Peter had to be persistent and vigilant. Letting the man steal screwdrivers from under his nose was just the start of slippery slope, if he wasn't careful.
