[QUOTE="wolff96, post: 4730376, member: 342"] First off, I don't think Ice-Woman is dead. (At this point, i can't be bothered to keep all of Ali Larter's characters seperate anymore. :)) I think her power will eventually be shown to be some kind of limited control of *water* not heat directly. So when she's in contact with someone, she can alter the state of the water in their body. When she's in a flooding parking garage, she can propogate the change through all the water she contacts. And when she turns herself completely to ice, she can reform after it all melts into the (really convenient) storm drain. Although I have to say? Ew. Reforming in a sewer. We'll see if I'm right. Second, I think the writers have real trouble with plotting and times for "travel powers". Daphne's super-speed and Hiro's teleporting are both rough for someone trying to make a semi-realistic show. After all, the instant they know something is up, Hiro and Daphne can be right there to help -- IMMEDIATELY. Flight takes time. And even if Hiro can time-stop, he still can't do anything but walk around to reach a location. I think Daphne's death has nothing to do with her character and *everything* to do with her power being tough for the writers to use effectively. Look at how much LESS of a moron Peter has been lately, when he no longer has his huge suite of "I win" powers. And on a really shallow note -- the actress playing Matt's wife has either lost a LOT of weight since her last appearance or that business suit she was wearing did wonders for her. She looked a bit pudgy before, without being unattractive (physically -- her personality is another matter) but she looked GOOD in this episode. [/QUOTE]
