Heroes

[hils]

I actually found this episode quite boring, despite the fact it probably contained some important stuff.

So, Maya speaks English? And they picked up Sylar. How did that happen? Wasn't he on an island in the last episode?

Claire and West are dating. Noah thinks West is going to kill him. Maybe he will.

Matt/Mohinder is totally canon. Matt wins the award for worst dad ever. Seriously, why did he need to know the apartment number? Surely the building would have been enough and it wouldn't have put Molly into a coma.

Nathan's beard is gone!!!!

I am intrigued by the new girl who immediately learns anything she sees on TV. She could be quite cool.

I miss Hiro/Kensei. I'd miss Peter if he didn't come with his little Oirish gang.

No, he was just in the middle of nowhere and evidently walked his way to the highway, blast it. Those three should have just run over him.

I'm hoping Noah does us all a favor and offs the kid first.

Hehe! Yeah, Claire/West is kind of nauseating even if it does cater to my Lois/Superman fannishness

I like the new girl Monica too!

I was thinking last night as I watched, and not for the first time, how Clexy Claire/West is. I mean, she's exhiled to this place where she knows NO ONE and trying so hard to fit in, but there this cute, if asshatish guy who wants to bond with her like some kind of puppy dog. Plus, he can fly. OMG. So Claire with her healing power and West with his superflight...

Matt's a shlub. But he and Mohinder are TOTALLY together. Sylar will be jealous when he gets to New York.

Can Molly just stay in a coma? She's annoying.

I find Molly alternates between being cute and being annoying. This week she was definitely annoying

Well oh my...

When Nathan was looking for the photo, I just knew Matt's father would be in. Don't ask me how - I just knew. And yup, there you go I was right. I didn't however predict that Matt's father was the crazy guy.

Want to know what's scarey? I seem to have made a logic jump - Matt and Sylar are brothers - only Sylar was put up for adoption (hence the weird relationship he had with his parents).

West is just annoying - and what's more he's going to be the killer of Noah - which so isn't fair. Of course we know Isaac's paintings aren't set in stone (and it's amazing the influence he's going to have this series, considering he died part way through the last one).

I was wondering just how relevant the paintings would be - considering the future was changed - but somehow Isaac's future sight covers alternate futures (given that Hiro's father would have been dead had Nathan not saved Peter/the city).

And of course the really exciting thing - we've been shown the faces of all the original gang. Now, chink by chink, the back story will be shown. It doesn't take a genius to work out some of it - such as Devroux's lineage, obviously Matt's father (and I suspect Sylar's father too), you'vetgot Mr Petrelli. It's not all that simple - I don't believe Nikki's represented there lineage wise in the photo - but she was married to someone who was, and has a child who is.

We know this group - especially Linderman are very fond of Breeding Program concept, as seen with Nikki and DL - though this raises some interesting questions - A) what was Nathan and Peter's power, B) how does Claire have a modification of Linderman's power? Creepy, and weird.

And let's not forget Hiro, and his father.

But what does it all mean? I'm guessing the Heroes, the central characters of the story, aren't merely mutations - they're more super mutations. More powerful than what came before, by way of selective breeding. Guided towards realising their powers by pushed into confrontations that require them. The nuclear bomb idea was Linderman's aims, not the group aims (though the group obviously brokedown, and Linderman went his own way, with Mrs Pettreli towing the line behind).

We've already seen the guidance - Charles Devroux's power was the ability to manipulate the sub-concsious. He was pushing Peter to fly, to use his brother's power, and he implanted the messages to help guide Peter towards the end of series one. Not that it helped overly much - but maybe, just maybe, it allowed Peter to hold on that bit longer, which allowed Nathan to come to the rescue.

It's all very interesting - and though you say this episode was boring, next weeks should be exciting. Curious though - I think that's the first time we've had an episode without Peter or Hiro? I could be wrong though - that could indicate the next two weeks are pretty massive, with Hiro finally letting history goes on it's own again, and Peter finally returning.

非常にエキサイティング

I wish I could think about these things as in depth as you and others on my flist too. I'm just along for the ride. LOL
