I still don't like flyboy. I was actually annoyed he turned out to not be a bad guy, but it was such an awesome episode it more than made up for that. Also I really liked that they let on the Mr. Bennet (I think he'll always be Mr. Bennet to me) is still alive immediately instead of waiting until he was needed again and him miraculously reappearing. Whenever that happens in things I feel like its an afterthought like, "Darn too bad so and so isn't around they could handle this no problem. Hey let's bring him back because I don't know how else to resolve the problem."

Also, I was thinking either that is Claire's blood that revived him or Bob isn't using it to save Niki since the preview showed her saying she has the virus. Not that I would be surprised by Bob not using the blood to save Niki or Mr. Bennet.
 
I don't remember the alchemy power... maybe I just spaced for awhile amid the mediocrity of the earlier episodes :lol

That scene was so brief it would've been easy to miss. I believe it happened when Bob and Mohinder met in a cafe and Bob turned a metal spoon into gold to show him they had unlimited funds.
 
well, at least half of the telemundo twins is gone. SO happy about that, if only they would do the same to micah's side of the familiy. :monkey2:monkey2 Looks like a nice Peter/Hiro/Kensei showdown next week, can't wait for the Hiro/Kensei interaction.
 
I'm pretty darn sure Maya will get her's next week as well. The "2 Heroes Will Fall" teaser almost guarantees she'll be one of those who will take the loss.

And will someone please beat the **** out of Mohinder... PLEASE! What a freakin' annoying, santimonious prick he's become. In the past few episodes he has blown his cover to Bob and The Company, taken their side, betrayed and shot HRG, and now he's apparently going to help Sylar get his powers back so he can save poor little Molly. You know, for a genetic scientist who can isolate mutated viral strains within minutes he is quite the dumbass.

Indeed. After last nights episode I actually would like to see Sylar and Maya have a romantic relationship. But it seems Sylar sees her more as a pet than a love interest.

The new twist with the cheerleader going public is interesting too. Too bad the season is over next week. :crying:crying

The telemundo twins, I like that. :lol


I think Mohinder's been one of the very few bright spots of this season. He's the only character that isn't going by the numbers and doing exactly what you expect them to. Everyone else has been pretty one-dimensional.
 
So, it turns out that, so far, the writers strike didn't really have as much of an effect on HEROES as we'd feared. From Co-Producer Greg Beeman:

... Episode 11 will be (and always was designed to be) the end of a chapter. Season one, as we all know, had a 23 chapter “VOLUME." But Tim Kring had come into this season specifically wanting to design smaller volumes. We knew well in advance how many episodes we’d run before our first break of re-runs and pre-emptions. After the eleventh episode on December 3rd, we knew we’d take a break. This year, Tim wanted to resolve the story more completely at this first break than we had last year, and begin VOLUME 3 in the Spring. Well before the writers strike was a serious issue, we had always planned on ending VOLUME 2 next week. It is true that, on the eve of the strike, as it was becoming an inevitability, Tim did some quick rewrites on episode 11, so that it would be even more resolved and complete if, God forbid, the strike goes on so long that there is no more of season 2 than the first eleven. If that happens 11 will be a de-facto season finale and can function as such. But if the strike is resolved relatively soon, we will most certainly come back and present VOLUME 3.

Couple this with the fact that the first 3-4 episodes of "Volume 3" have essentially been filmed already and that means that if (and yes, big IF) the strike ends within the next couple of months we will likely have a complete (22-23 episode) season of HEROES afterall. Fingers crossed...
 
Oh I hope so, I'm just not ready for Heroes to end. Especially after its hit its stride once again. These past two or three episodes have shown what a stinker the first part of the season was.
 
I have a question about Sylar. Is he just a normal person without any powers, just that he gets them from eating people's brains? Or is he a type of sponge like Peter is?
 
Sylar isn't normal, otherwise he wouldn't have any powers. But his real power is to look at something and see how it works. So I think we established in this thread that he doesn't eat brains, he examines the brain to see how the power works and then he's able to emulate it.

But it would be so much cooler if he actually ate the brain...mmmm...brains.....PLUS, did anyone else hear the ticking at the end when he was talking to maya. Hopefully that means we get a badass sylar now and I'm hoping he "eats" maya's brain soon. I hope he just "eats" mohinder's brains for the hell of it, he's really annoying me this season.
 
I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere (could even be in TV Guide or the new Heroes Magazine) that Sylar actually DOES eat the brains.
 
Wikied:
"In a March 22, 2007, interview executive producer Tim Kring, when asked if Sylar eats brains, laughed that "that's the popular speculation. There is a connection between the powers and the brain - and Sylar has found it. Early in season 2, you'll find out what he's been doing with the brains."[5] Bryan Fuller also explained in an interview that the original concept was that "[Sylar] kills people and he eats their brains and he, like, digests their power"; however, in order to avoid the potential silliness and zombie associations, they decided to deliberately make this fact vague in the series.[6] Whether or not Sylar's cannibalism is literal or metaphorical, various episodes express his assimilation of powers in cannibalistic language using words like delicious to describe Maya's power, or for example, in "Parasite", Sylar loses his composure when demanding the list of heroes Mohinder is compiling, saying, "Give me that damn list! So I can ... sink my teeth in!""
 
Since they made him a CLOCK repairman, I think it can be derived that he just notices the mechanics of how the brain uses the powers and can learn how to use them himself.

He had blood all over his hands when he killed Candice and busted her skull open to look at her brains before he escaped but he had no blood on his face from "eating" her brains.
