[QUOTE="fba827, post: 4543891, member: 807"] Aside from a few issues (some of which were already mentioned), I did liked the episode in general. Of course, I may be biased because I am the sort taht loves origin stories and background info. I am not a big fan of Sylar so the whole guy guy-bad guy-good guy flip flopping isjust annoying to me. But, hey, I'll give them props for the attempt to develop his character. I just hope we don't have to watch more good/guy/ flip flopping on his part in more episodes. I think they've done what they should with his character and move on to others. I also wished they'd made it someone else's vision quest, other than Hiros. I do like his character but this just seemed like a good opportunity to give some other character the opportunity to be the catalyst for a time-jump episode. I do admire their effort to not make it an actual time jump to the past because then we'd have to deal with Hiro's actual presence and interference. As always, I liked Christine Rose (Ma Petrelli) but I have yet to like Pa Petrelli -- not as a person/character but his presence. Whenever he's there I just moan a little inside because it seems so predictable that he will always just do the mob-boss-like action. Didn't they say in season 1 that Pa Petrelli actually died by suicide? Or was it that he had several suicide attempts but actually died by a heart attack? Also, I am curious as to how Elle went from the somewhat sane girl shown here to the somewhat sociopathic girl shown in season 2 (a year after the events of this episode). Anyway, as said, sure a couple issues with the episode but over all I enjoyed it. [/QUOTE]
