Heroes- Now with spoilers!

[Darklord Dave]

So he works at Kinko's but can afford a huge house in Costa Verde, CA and a 2007 Rogue for his teenage daughter? Guess he had some offshore accounts set up.

At least the product placement isn't as bad as Smallville where Lois used her new car to distract a security guard - telling him about all it's fine features. This was a point where Lois was living in the Kent's spare room and was unemployed. I wanna be a TV character!

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah his job didn't quite match-up with his lifestyle. I would imagine he had money stashed away from his years of doing dirty work. But maybe is keeping the job as a cover?!? At least thats what I told myself to make it okay

 

[Agent0028]

I just figured he had money stashed away from his previous job. And when I was 16 I woulda been ecstatic over my parents just giving me a car, especially a new one.

While I enjoyed the Journeyman pilot, I was reminded of this rampant product placement in TV as well Dave. Hmm ... so, the Iphone is crucial to solving time travel mysteries ... I see. Wonder how many cast members got free Iphones for that huge plug ...

 

[The ill Jedi]

I really enjoyed the first episode, but I want to see what led up to everyone being in their particular situation. Like, what's up with Nathan going all 'Jack Shepherd in the future' , where's Parkman's wife, what exactly are Mohinder and Noah Bennett up to and who put Peter in that shipping crate. The last part I believe has something to do with what Hiro's dad said about "The 9 remaining". I'm sure they'll go back and address all that stuff later in the season. Anyway good episode, can't wait for more!

 

[galactiboy]

I'm also hoping we get to find out what the old-school characters powers are. I don't remember them being metioned, except that the dying old man (can't remember his name) could influence others through dreams.

 

[Agent0028]

You mean Simone's dad, Devereaux or something wasn't it? And Linderman had the healing power. I can't wait to find out their back story. I predict we will have an episode set way in the past with the prior generation, and an episode set somewhere in the couple previous months to show a little bit about the intervening time.

Is Niki and her family going to be back this season?

 

[The ill Jedi]

Can't wait to see the Elders back stories.

Nikki was shown in the preview for next weeks episode, so I am assuming that they'll be back (minus DL?).

 

[galactiboy]

New episode tonight

Too much information... I will look away now

 

[The ill Jedi]

Halo early, then Chuck and Heroes back to back makes for a wonderful monday night!!

 

[Darth Caedus]

Too much information... I will look away now

My bad

 

[galactiboy]

Finished the episode, liked it more than the opener. A solid episode and seems to be setting up a lot of interesting story lines. Although I'm not sure Peter has to take those guy up on the offer... seems like he could get what he needs on his own.

(intentionally vague there in case anyone hasn't seen it yet )

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

Yeah, this one was better than last weeks. I just hope they cool it with the "Claire's gory injury of the week" stuff. She's Wolverine, we got it already. Save it for something useful.

 

[galactiboy]

Although tonights injury was pretty nasty... couldn't she have found a better tool?!?

 

[Batty]

Good episode! I'm glad the Haitian is back.

Any thoughts on Kensei's healing power? And did he actually die and come back to life?

I think you're right, GB. How hard would it have been for Peter to get the box away from the Irish guy? You think they'd be a little more scared of him after what he did.

Goddamn dog's gonna eat the cheerleader's toe.

Goddamn dog's gonna eat the cheerleader's toe.

Somebody's got to.

I didn't really buy that a pair of regular scissors can cut through bone or that Peter couldn't just take the box even in his weakened amnesiac condition. It was a good ep. but I didn't like it as much as the premiere - not as much happened, no deaths, no bad guys, but it was nice to see the Hatian again - I wonder how he'll help HRG and when he'll bite it. Somehow I doubt that The Company is oblivious to what HRG and Mohinder are up to.

I wonder how the twins Maya and Alejandro will fit into the overall storyline? Another threat to an entire city like the exploding man last season? It'd be cool if Hiro knocks up the princess before he returns to the present thus establishing a new blood line. And West just can't stop peeping in Claire's window. You'd think if you were being hunted or were going to use your secret power or whatever that you'd at least close the drapes Next week looks interesting as Sylar (yay) and Nikki (yawn) return.

Even though Kring said it was only for the comic book, I really hope we get to see Uluru:
