SHITE!.. Thanks anyway.
MmmMmm. Ooiiishiii
Just caught up to this, and although it had a slow start which I didn't like it's gotten me interested now.
Well, if people with powers have been around for over 15 years, I'm sure there is alot more in that age gap, how old do you think the woman with the hearing thing that Sylar killed would be? The Petelli's mum more than likely has some kind of power, as it seems to be hereditary with what we've seen so far.
Sylar is fucken awesome, his character is well done, I hope he gets a shit load more powers, espcially Clare's, would make him really hard to defeat then.
Out of curiousity, has anyone been following the comics that come out online weekly? There was this one major revelation that came out the past couple of weeks which I was surprised that it hasn't made a reference to in the actual TV series yet.

lol... yeah. Hardly anyone I know who follows the show follows the comics so I've been dying to blurt it out to somebody. Guess I'll just have to endure a bit longer
Holy Shit!!! I just checked out what Honoko was talking about, that was a pretty big surprise. I hope they explain it in the actual show but I doubt they'd be able to get away with not doing so.
Um.... time paradox what? At least it's just a one-week wait =P I'm too hung up on the last scene to even talk about the rest of the episode.
Ah finally, Heroes is back and it was awesome. It seems like Linderman might really be at the center of everything like many have thought. But one thing is somewhat odd, if he's part of HRG's former group then who is it that's opposing him? Or is anyone opposing him at all?
One thing I'm a little dissappointed at is the fact that this episode has placed the plot onto a pretty canned track. We have an evil guy with good intentions trying to do evil things to bring about good results, with a corrupted puppet who thinks he's doing the right thing and a bunch of underdogs trying to stop his nefarious plan. It's still cool, but from the preview the plot could concieveably start rolling along a well beaten path in the next few episodes (please let me be wrong!). I'd say the best hope for unpredictability now is the wildcard Syler and his actions, will he join a side or stay on his little path of destruction.
@ Honoko: Thanks for the tip, reading the comics made it even better since I got some of the nuances of the situation that weren't specifically mentioned in the episode. (Not to be mentioned here for fear the spoiler rule extends to English TV as well)
My hope is that future Hiro is the upset factor Linderman wasn't counting on.Originally Posted by Yukimura

I want to know what mama Patrelli's power is. Sylar vs Peter was a little dissapointing because I was hoping Peter would deflect the glass and just smack Sylar around with telekenesis.
I thought that would have gone down a little differently. I figured Peter would have ... you know ... not have turned around and stood there like an idiot. And I also figured he would sneak in Sylar's direction, and Sylar would hear him with the recently-acquired super-hearing. And then Peter would listen to Sylar's thoughts and fly to avoid the flying-glass attack, maybe use the telekinesis to fake footsteps...
At least, that's how I would have liked to see it go down. Might have been hard to depict with him invisible and whatnot though. Still, I felt that the Peter/Sylar confrontation as designed was ... sort of anti-climactic. Sylar gets knocked out but Suresh doesn't cap him in the head or stab him or anything?
I couldn't agree more with you here. Honestly how Peter went down boggled my mind considering Sylar was holding up the glass for more then enough time for peter to react instead of being facing the opposite direction entirely.Originally Posted by complich8
Overall it was a good episode but they certainly need to give us a few major plot twists to make the long break worthwhile.
I can't believe Mr. Isaac dies. What did he mean by he found the way to defeat Sylar?
After obsessively reading other forums and whatnot, my guess is that Mama Petrelli's superpower is some kind of clairvoyance. Here's the reasoning-- at some point Peter Petrelli was able to "know" what Nathan was up to via dreaming or whatever, right? That's not quite Issac's power nor was it anything like digging up the past the Indian boy demonstrated with Mohinder. Peter the power sponge must've gotten that ability from somewhere and the only person he's in close proximity with regularly would be his mother. This would also explain how the mom "knew" what Clare's been up to, or how she "knew" what her boys were doing. The way she speaks, it seems to imply a more intimate knowledge than having her own spy network or something.
I'm guessing that's something he drew in his notebook.Originally Posted by lilphatboi88
I was also extremely disappointed by the Peter/Sylar fight. I'd think that killing Sylar is much more important for Mohinder than taking Peter's body to his family. Ah well. Peter hasn't had much time to develop his powers yet. Hopefully the next time he meets Sylar, he'll be more battle-ready.
Was anyone else surprised by the EMP? It seems HRG knows more about Ted than we thought.
Linderman's talk of his 'younger days' makes me think that him and Mama Patrelli were part of some sort of x-men type organization trying to save the world. I think in upcoming episodes, Mama Patrelli will be a force to be reckoned with. It's still a mystery how she knows the Haitian though. I'd really love to see some backstory on her.
But enough about backstory, because next week is THE FUTURE! Future Hiro is so awesome. Future Hiro + Present Hiro = Beyond Awesome. After five years, everyone will have had sufficient time to develop their powers, and hopefully we'll get to see some of the potential that all of our confused protagonists have.
Any theories on what Linderman wants Micah for?
@Honoko: That seems like a good theory. Something like when he was 'with' Simone's dad before he passed away?
My guess is that he's gonna use Micah to rig the elections.Originally Posted by KitKat
Yes! Good example. Thanks for that.That seems like a good theory. Something like when he was 'with' Simone's dad before he passed away?
I suggest reading Heroes Novel Chapter 29: War Buddies Part 6 (In fact I recommend reading all of War Buddies while you're at it, you probably won't get that stuff in the show and it does make things more understandable).Originally Posted by KitKat
Chapter 29 + Lindermans comment when asking for Micah ~ 'I had a plan in place but it seems that it has gone awry' = One blatant and very reasonable conclusion.
ya i got that impression too. im thinking, linderman, mama patrelli, and hiro's dad were all involved. Its quite possible that they started The Company to find and recruit others like them, but mama patrelli went her own way for whatever reason, and the company started targetting heroes instead.Originally Posted by KitKat
