Sylar killed Charlie, whom we now know had a brain aneurism (sp). A question for y'all...do you think it's possible that Sylar ended up with this condition when he stole her power - and that it might come into play somewhere down the line?

I like that theory. Sylar's big deal is changing his brain to be like the brains of the people he kills so that their powers work-maybe when he changed his brain he brought the anyeurism over as well. There has to be a reason for an otherwise-throwaway character to have been introduced like that.
He's still going to go after Claire. He knows that her powers is the key to heal the anyeurism.

I honestly think Sylar will go out before Claire does. I hope so, anyhow.
So, Haitian guy tells Claire it's imperative that she remembers who and what she is. Is it possible that he too knows things about the future, or had been with Hiro there or been warned by him? I don't get the feeling that he's the kind who would betray his mission without a good reason.

I think her character could have been introduced to show that Hiro can't just go back in time and prevent people from being killed. In other words, he can't just go back and change anything.

That's pretty sloppy writing, though, to introduce a character only for that reason. There's much cleaner ways for Hiro to discover that limitation.
did I mention that this show is frickin' awesome?
So why is Peter sick? Can he not be permanently healed from Claire? And when did the dreams start?

He also said something like you've finally found a guy who you can't use them on to Eden at one point in last week's episode.

Zing! I think that's going to definitely play a part in it. They wouldn't have mentioned that if it wasn't going to be used...

Great episode. TBL has some pretty good insights.
But how about all the running during Peter's dream sequence. Run, Claire! Run!
I chose 24 over Heroes tonight, but hopefully they'll have it up on the web tomorrow. I got a new DVR for the downstairs but I have to get on top of my roof to hook it up to the satellite and I wasn't about to brave that tonight.

I watched the last episode earlier today
in a couple days I can get the one they aired tonight from iTunes
You can get it free from NBC right now.
I thought it was pretty stinking good. Now we see how Peter gets the nuclear capabilities. I thought the scene of nukeman Ted in the desert was pretty cool. I look forward to seeing more of him. I wonder how much fiber he has to eat to sustain that?
I also thought it was cool that Nathan seems to be embracing his hero-dom more.
For once I was actually interested in Nikki's plotline. The scene where she as Nikki took the club and snapped it like a twig shows promise that she'll be able to harness her physical powers and instead of being a psycho, be like a she-hulk (but instead of turning green & huge she just stays blonde & hot).

I don't know if this has been mentioned or not, but there will be another season next year.
It was nice to see Heroes last night.
They ain't canceling Heroes, no way. Now if only they'd move it an hour later and leave Jack Bauer alone. Even in this day and age with DVR's, DVD's, and web capabilities where we can watch both shows faithfully, the Nielsen boxes still only register one show and I'll bet 24 will always get more viewers than Heroes.
Little revision...
Peter Petrelli: Duplicates powers of other heroes in close proximity to him. So far only seems to use the powers while heroes are close to him, but may be able to keep them once he learns how. Also has dreams that are prescient.
Nathan Petrelli: Flies. Running for congress and has political ties to Linderman.
Linderman: Unknown mobster-type bad guy. Is involved with some of the heroes through shady illegal deals involving money.
Claire Bennett: Regenerates and can come back from the dead (provided there is no physical object causing the death), "The Cheerleader."
Mr. Bennett/HRG (Horned Rim Glasses): May be able to resist powers, may not be able to. May be a good guy, may not be. Father of Claire. Works for somebody that gives him orders on the phone.
Hiro Nakamura: Manipulates space/time continuum (freeze time, travel through time, etc). Looks constipated when performing his power.
Charlie: Eidetic memory. Hiro's crush. Now dead, killed by Syler.
DL: Can turn immaterial and pass through physical objects (or they pass through him). Nikki's husband & Micahs father.
Nikki: Has angry, superstrong alternate personality named "Jessica."
Micah: Son of DL & Nikki. Has the ability to fix things. Whether it works on people is yet to be discovered.
Mohinder Suresh: Ability to suck the life out of an interesting show, but might actually have powers. Should be relegated to voiceovers at the beginning and end of episodes. (Also the son of the Doctor that discovered the heroes).
Mohindad: Discovered the hero's and was wacked. Father of Mohinder, and much more interesting than his son.
Syler: Bad guy that acquires powers from other hero's by killing them and doing something mysterious with their brains.
Haitian: Has ability to wipe peoples memories and possibly prevent any mental powers from being performed on him or those he chooses to protect (in most cases HRG). He's the Tonto to HRG's Lone Ranger. Working in secret with Claire.
Eden McCain (formerly known as "persuasive chick"): Well... she's pretty persuasive. Voice gets husky when she's really putting on the charm. Killed herself before Syler could get her powers in the fall finale.
Isaac Mendez: Able to paint the future, but originally had to be high on opiates. Now he has the ability without being high.
Matt Parkman: Mind reading dyslexic cop.
Simone: Able to seduce white superhero's.
Ted Sprague: When he gets emotional, he emits high levels of radiation without being harmed himself. Currently in the desert learning how to control his powers.
Invisible guy: He's invisible and steals peoples stuff. So far nobody can see him but Peter.

Last night, they also used it to explain why Hiro's english improved as much as it did over the span of an episode or two.
Micah: Son of DL & Nikki. Has the ability to fix things. Whether it works on people is yet to be discovered.
It appears to me as if it's more than just fixing things; if you'll recall last season when he called Nikki to tell her where he and DL were, I don't believe he had a quarter for the pay phone -- I believe he used his power to make it make the call.

This is exactly why I wish that freakin' satellite law that limits the feeds you can receive didin't exist.
That way if you wanted, you could pay for the east/west coast feeds of any of the major networks. That's the one thing I miss here. The freakin' OKC stations will not grant a waiver for that.
I can only pray that my request to receive the HD networks goes through. I'm right on the edge of being able to receive a quality HD signal up here so I hope they have mercy on me. :D
Anyway, Monday nights are going to rawk . . . Prison Break/Deal or No Deal, then Heroes/24 and the occasional CSI: Miami. Thankfully I can watch them online or download the torrents. :D

I was thinking the same thing about Peter. Although it would be fun to see the Sylar/Peter battle. Sylar isn't invincible yet so I'd probably give the edge to Peter at this point. Peter has it easy because he just has to hang around someone to get their power. Sylar has to kill them and eat their brains or whatever it is he does.
Peter will literally become Superman.

Actually, Peter will gain all of Sylar's powers when he's around him. He automatically becomes more powerful just by fighting. I suspect he's going to start losing the new control he has once he absorbs a few powers too many...thus, the eventual explosion when he absorbs nuclear guy.

See, I wonder if Sylar might not be exactly like Peter in that he can absorb the powers just by being near them, but decides to go ahead and kill people anyway.
If that's the case, a future Sylar-Peter fight could just lead to a huge feedback loop between them

Then why his obsession with lopping off the domes of his victims? Maybe it's a fetish.
I don't think he can get them without killing them... However if he did learn how to, he'd probably still kill them anyway b/c he doesn't want anybody else to have his powers.

So again I ask, why does he kill them exactly the same way every time? It's not like sawing off the top of someone's head is the easiest way to do it.
The only way he can get their powers is by examining the brain itself, the same way he examined the watches. Either that or my original theory of him eating the brains still holds true. :D

I gotta go with tbl on this one. He has to see the brain in order to find the problem, so he can "fix it" and then duplicate the power in his.

Either way, he has to get their brains to get the powers.
I'm still not convinced of this. Peter's absorbed powers become more controllable as he exerts himself/fights. Sylar may absorb the power initially, but the murder may be the exertion or act that makes the power more controllable for him. The brain bit may just be his personal flare as a serial killer.

Sylar isn't a serial killer. Sylar is a murderer. Let's clear that up. He's being tracked as a serial killer by the FBI on the show, but as an omniscient audience, we know the truth. It's hard for me to call him a conventional serial killer when he's only killing super-powered individuals, or people that get in his way.
Anyway, as for the show itself, I think that Sylar has to see their brain "working" in order for him to figure out how to "work" their power. He doesn't have the same control issues that other people who are new to powers have because he's using his power (to see how things "work") to figure out how to make himself be able to do THEIR power without any "issues." But, as I already said, he has to see their brain "work" to do this. That's my guess, anyway.
This show pretty much owns my life right now. I plan around it. It dominates my Monday's.

American Heritage Dictionary
serial killer
n. A person who attacks and kills victims one by one in a series of incidents.
How is Sylar not a serial killer? When some wacko kills prostitutes over several years, they are labeled serial killers. Why not a wacko who kills heroes one by one?

that's what makes him a serial killer. His victims all meet a specific profile (i.e. having super powers)
if he was just out there randomly killing people then he'd be a murdered.

2/20/2007, 07:59 PM
oh, and i'm forgetting my most important thought from the last 2 episodes
99% of all cops are bad
I think it's interesting that lines are being drawn where there will be different sides between the Heroes. At first it was Syler against everybody else (except for Nikki/Jessica, but who cares about her?). Now you have Parkman, Ted, and the text message chick that seem to be forming an alliance similar to Magneto. While they're all still on the same side (of sorts), their approach to HRG and the other people will most likely be much different. It seems odd that Parkmans character has turned the way he has (stealing diamonds, going the revenge angle), but maybe they'll bring it back home.
Also, just how stupid is Mohinder??? Is he not able to connect that Syler is the one that killed Dale? Idiot...
Revised....
This provides character descriptions up to current episodes.
Peter Petrelli: Duplicates powers of other heroes in close proximity to him. Has learned how to harness these powers and has the potential to be one bad mofo.
Nathan Petrelli: Flies. Running for congress and has political ties to Linderman. Also the bastard father of Claire Bennett.
Linderman: Unknown mobster-type bad guy. Is involved with some of the heroes through shady illegal deals involving money, most notably Nikki.
Claire Bennett: Regenerates and can come back from the dead (provided there is no physical object causing the death), "The Cheerleader."
Claires REAL Mom: Firestarter that lives in a trailer. She probably won't end up being much of a player in the rest of the show.
Mr. Bennett/HRG (Horned Rim Glasses): May be able to resist powers, may not be able to. May be a good guy, may not be. Adoptive father of Claire. Works for somebody that gives him orders on the phone.
Hiro Nakamura: Manipulates space/time continuum (freeze time, travel through time, etc). Looks constipated when performing his power.
Ando: Hiro's powerless sidekick.
Charlie: Eidetic memory. Hiro's crush. Now dead, killed by Syler.
DL: Can turn immaterial and pass through physical objects (or they pass through him). Nikki's husband & Micahs father.
Nikki: Has angry, superstrong alternate personality named "Jessica." At this time, Jessica has taken over and is doing hits for Linderman, while posing as Nikki for Micah & DL.
Micah: Son of DL & Nikki. Has the ability to manipulate machines.
Mohinder Suresh: The son of the Doctor that discovered the heroes. He is on a mission to find the heroes and help them, possibly by trying to "cure" them. Could cause conflict with some of the heroes that embrace their power.
Mohindad: Discovered the hero's and was wacked by Syler.
Syler: Bad guy that acquires powers from other hero's by killing them and doing something mysterious with their brains. Currently pretending to be a hero named Zack (could melt objects into liquid), so that he can ride with Mohinder to find the heroes.
Haitian: Has ability to wipe peoples memories and possibly prevent any mental powers from being performed on him or those he chooses to protect (in most cases HRG). He's the Tonto to HRG's Lone Ranger. Working in secret with Claire.
Eden McCain (formerly known as "persuasive chick"): Well... she's persuasive. Voice gets husky when she's really putting on the charm. Killed herself before Syler could get her powers in the fall finale.
Isaac Mendez: Able to paint the future, but originally had to be high on opiates. Now he has the ability without being high.
Matt Parkman: Mind reading dyslexic cop.
Simone: Able to seduce white superhero's. Was accidentally shot/killed by Isaac when Peter and Isaac had a spat with each other.
Ted Sprague: When he gets emotional, he emits high levels of radiation without being harmed himself. He accidentally killed his wife with said radiation. He now can control his powers and is on the hunt to find HRG and figure out what these people did to him. Blames "them" for his wifes death.
Invisible guy: He's invisible and steals peoples stuff, but is also like a sensei to Peter. He taught Peter to use the powers he's absorbed from other heroes. HRG is aware of him and he apparently goes way back.
Internets girl: She's in league with Ted & Parkman to find HRG. So far she has shown the ability to send txt messages with her mind. Pretty amazing power... for a 12 year old to have.
Dale: Butch mechanic lady that had super hearing power. Now dead by the hands of Syler.

Holy friggin crap that was a good episode.
I think sticking with one storyline per episode was a nice change of pace. Very engrossing. As a father to a daughter, I have to admit I got a little welled up tonight.

HRG is still what we thought he was. He's bad with some good. He didn't even hesitate to shoot invisible dude 7 years ago. So how much of his memory is going to be erased? If it's just that days activities then OK. But maybe they erased all of his memories of the cheerleader. Then he's going to be after her. Why the hell did Matt let them take him back to the lab? Who was invisible guy hiding? Who is the other person looking after the cheerleader (or who else is the haitian working for)?

Other than that, that was the best episode evar. How cool was it when Claire walked out of the house lookin' all toasty and burned and still smokin' hot. Very sad when Haitian guy and HRG and Claire were on the bridge. Very sad.
crawfish
2/27/2007, 10:50 AM
Honestly, HRG is now the most interesting character on the show. They took a mysterious character and made him multi-layered, not necessarily good or evil. I have always loved the look of happiness on his face when he sees the Petrelli's fly. The sacrifices he made for Claire and his family are heart-wrenching, despite the fact that he doesn't show that much kindness to any of the other heroes.
So how much of his memory is going to be erased? If it's just that days activities then OK. But maybe they erased all of his memories of the cheerleader. Then he's going to be after her.
I have a feeling it will be the latter.
Why the hell did Matt let them take him back to the lab?
I think HRG earned his trust. Plus it's not completely known that he "let" them.
Who was invisible guy hiding? Who is the other person looking after the cheerleader (or who else is the haitian working for)?
You just answered your own question. :D They addressed that last night by the way they framed the story. Haitian says he's protecting Claire b/c somebody else outside of HRG's group has asked him to. They flashed back to the scene of HRG & Invisibrit in the car, where Invisibrit divulged that he knew all about Claire. Invisibrit is working with the Haitian and who knows who else. I did notice the Haitian had a necklace as a boy that was the "bad guy" symbol... but I'm thinking more and more that good and bad guys are going to get mixed up quite a bit to where you don't really know who is who.
Damn, we got a lot of good questions answered and a lot more questions were raised. It's funny how I leave Heroes feeling satisfied and wanting more while I leave lost feeling frustrated and wanting more.
All a testimony to the genius of the show. Sure there have been some lags, but all in all the show is money.

ok, I remember thinking while watching it on Monday that HRG's gun just kind of seemed to go off on it's own...and had forgotten about it until someone mentioned it here. I went back an watched it again and I'm convinced that HRG didn't do it. The first shot for sure. It was a shot in mid sentence, while he was holding his gun down by his side. Every other time we've seen him shoot at anyone, his taken aim, and that time, during none of the shots, did it seem like he tried to aim.
Something either controlled him, or the gun. IMO.

HRG thought he killed invisible guy. All you saw was invisible guy go invisble during the 3rd or 4th shot and you are led to believe he fell over the side and died. Or at least HRG was led to believe that, clearly Invisible Guy has spent a lot of time making sure that HRG and those he works for believe he's dead. I think that's the primary reason he was so ****ed off that Peter could see him when he was doing his pickpocket thing.

the battle between Sylar and Peter will be epic.
ole pete can regenerate and go invisible, and probably a few other things that Sylar can't.
not to mention all the crap Sylar can do :eek:
maybe Peter will eat his brain
Sylar will just hear Peter breathing or walking around if he goes invisible.
I still can't stand Mohinder. Is it too late to recast his part?

if by "walking" you mean "flying or teleporting" then I agree.
Peter hasn't stopped time yet, has he?
That would be a quick way to turn an epic battle into a one-sided route in a hurry.

He hasn't, but he does have the ability. Petie is gonna smack Syler around once he gets ticked off...
Epic is exactly the right word for it. That or "the bees knees".
Also, turns out that wireless chick was named Hanna and they actually wasted four, count em FOUR graphic novels on her online, then she just disappears from the show. Weird...

Your post or the link? ;)
If Sylar can pick up an ability from a person's brain would he pick up Peter's ability to mimic or the skills Peter has already absorbed. I ask because if it is the former, that would be an interesting twist in that Sylar would no longer need to kill.
Likewise, if Peter mimics their actual powers, can he mimic those acquired by Sylar or does it only apply to the natural kind?

You don't pick up on the obvious very well, do you? ;)
Yes, Sylar could get Peters absorption power, though he'd probably still kill since he doesn't want anybody else sharing his power... and yes, Peter can mimic those acquired by Sylar since he's already done that (telekinesis).
Don't worry... there's no way they kill off Peter Petrelli.
Peter Petrelli: Duplicates powers of other heroes in close proximity to him. Has learned how to harness these powers and has the potential to be one bad mofo.
Nathan Petrelli: Flies. Running for congress and has political ties to Linderman. Also the bastard father of Claire Bennett. Was working undercover for the FBI to bust Linderman, but might choose the dark side.
Linderman: Mobster-type bad guy. Is involved with some of the heroes through shady illegal deals involving money, most notably Nikki. Knows about their powers, and used to be a hooligan in futuristic England.
Claire Bennett: Regenerates and can come back from the dead (provided there is no physical object causing the death), "The Cheerleader."
Claires REAL Mom: Firestarter that lives in a trailer. Not much of a player in the rest of the show.
Mr. Bennett/HRG (Horned Rim Glasses): Adoptive father of Claire. Works for a company that tracks the heroes and possibly neutralizes them (at least the dangerous ones). In spite of everything, he loves his daughter and wants to protect her.
Hiro Nakamura: Manipulates space/time continuum (freeze time, travel through time, etc). Looks constipated when performing his power. Now he has his samurai sword, so he should be able to refine his power.
Ando: Hiro's powerless sidekick, but a cool dude nonetheless.
Charlie: Eidetic memory. Hiro's crush. Now dead, killed by Syler.
DL: Can turn immaterial and pass through physical objects (or they pass through him). Nikki's husband & Micahs father.
Nikki: Has angry, superstrong alternate personality named "Jessica." At this time, Jessica has taken over and is doing hits for Linderman, while posing as Nikki for Micah & DL. Nikki still shows up from time to time.
Micah: Son of DL & Nikki. Has the ability to manipulate machines.
Mohinder Suresh: The son of the Doctor that discovered the heroes. He is on a mission to find the heroes and help them, possibly by trying to "cure" them. Could cause conflict with some of the heroes that embrace their power.
Mohindad: Discovered the hero's and was wacked by Syler.
Syler: Bad guy that acquires powers from other hero's by killing them and doing something mysterious with their brains.
Haitian: Has ability to wipe peoples memories and possibly prevent any mental powers from being performed on him or those he chooses to protect (in most cases HRG). He was the Tonto to HRG's Lone Ranger, but is now on the run with Claire since the copany found out she was a hero. Working with Peter and Nathans Mom to hide Claire.
Mrs. Petrelli: Nathan and Peters Mom that has intimate knowledge of the heroes, but still very unknown as to what her connection is.
Eden McCain: Well... she was persuasive. Killed herself before Syler could get her powers in the fall finale.
Isaac Mendez: Able to paint the future, but originally had to be high on opiates. Now he has the ability without being high.
Matt Parkman: Mind reading dyslexic cop.
Simone: Able to seduce white superhero's. Was accidentally shot/killed by Isaac when Peter and Isaac had a spat with each other.
Ted Sprague: When he gets emotional, he emits high levels of radiation without being harmed himself. He accidentally killed his wife with said radiation. He now can control his powers but is captured by the company. Blames "them" for giving him his powers and causing his wifes death.
Claude: He can become invisible. He taught Peter to use the powers he's absorbed from other heroes. HRG used to be partners with him but HRG was forced to kill him (or so he thought) since Claude was hiding another hero from the company (presumably Claire).
Hana "wireless": Can interpret electronic data sent via wireless communications.
Dale: Butch mechanic lady that had super hearing power. Now dead by the hands of Syler.
Shape shifting hotness: Hot chick that can shape shift into other people (as well as take on their voice). Working with the company to track down the heroes.
Eric Roberts: HRG's boss.
Sulu: Hiro's father and involved in the company in some way.

So last night I decided to start re-watching the ones since after the break. I noticed something - if Peter can see the future, the future has already changed. During every dream where he explodes, Simone is there with Mr. Isaac holding her back. She's dead now, right?
Another little thing that has bugged me for no good reason is I'd swear Isaac's painting of Hiro in front of the dinosaur has him holding an actual sword. When it really happened, he was holding a fake sword that is still sheathed. Does this mean anything or is the continuity wrong?
maybe it was sheathed in the painting? i thought about that but haven't gone back to see the detail on the sword
Well, I think it's just a possibility of the future.... however those are good points and probably come from flaws in the writing.

I had no problem with the Sylar Peter fight being anti-climatic, but why, when Mohinder knocked Sylar out, wouldn't Sylar pick up a gun, or a knife, or something, and finish what he had improbably started but getting the upper hand on Sylar in the first place?
If he had time to drag Peter's limp body out of there, I don't see why he didn't have time to finish Sylar off.
Also, what does the implication that Linderman is HRG's old boss mean for Mama Petrelli? It would appear that Mom is trying to protect Claire from Linderman, but at the same time she has to know that her oldest son is on the take from Linderman.
Does that mean that she's basically on Linderman's side, but she wants to protect her grand-daugher, or does it mean that she wants Linderman to believe that she's on his side, while in reality she is working against him, much like the Haitian. I don't buy the third option, that they simply aren't aware of each other.
Also, I still hate "future-soul-patched-lost all trace of his accent" Hiro.
Overall, I was pretty disapointed in that episode.

*shrug* I have a feeling that Mama Petrelli's in the heirarchy of "The Others" (why do these series' have 'the others'). Odd that they've spent so much time making Nathan an unsympathetic character to make a quick turn to sympathetic, and give teasers of him being the ultimate unsympathetic character in the future.

Still, that's a constructive power, not a destructive one. I suppose he could revive all he wants if he is controlling an army of badasses that destroy everything in their path. He sort of hinted at his dual nature with the .07% discussion. He merely wants to unite everyone in fear. Sounds about as philanthropic as Hitler, but it also means that his motives aren't strictly destructive. He doesn't want to destroy the world, just NYC. He's an 'end justifies the means' type. Regardless, it all points to some bigger and more interesting episodes to come.

Sylar says that Nathan had already "turned against his own kind", Peter says he's a liar, and says Sylar is going to pay for what he's done.
The shot cuts to slightly behind and to the right of Sylar, showing his right hand, which freezes. Peter can be seen in the background charging Sylar with his hands on fire. The scene cuts away to the room with Hiro/etc.
Future Hiro's lying on the ground, dying. He hands Hando a frame from the comic book, covered in blood -- the frame shows Future Hiro on the ground, dying. Suresh is barricading the door, which is being hammered on. Periodic flashes of light, orange and blue, can be seen through the door frame.
Present Hiro freaks out. Hando hands him the sword, tells Hiro they have to leave. Hiro says he can't do it. Hando says he's seen what Hiro becomes, and that he believes in him. Just as the door gives way, Hiro takes the sword, concentrates, and they teleport/time travel to the pigeon cage roof top. Skyline is pre-nuke. Hiro says, "Now the hard part begins."
Then my DVR cuts out. :(
Of course, the end of the fight between Peter and Sylar is probably not hard to predict. Peter can stop time and has had Claire's power long enough to know how to make death stick. Who knows what all Sylar can do now, but I bet he doesn't know the whole "stick something in their brain and they won't regenerate" thing.

It is interesting that now there we have 3 people that can blow up the city (Sylar is included assuming he kills Ted).
But why would Sylar blow himself up? He didn't kill the cheerleader, so wouldn't he be done blowed up afterwards?
I have 2 questions. What happened to the internets girl? And, what happened to the ultra-memory girl? The last I saw Hiro went back in time to save her, next he said that he couldn't save her, then the story moved on. Seems like there's more to the story there. Of course, I haven't read any of the online novels, so maybe it was explained there.
