Heroes Season 1(#20)---4/30/07-'(Five Years Gone)String Theory'

[Steel_Wind]

It doesn't add up.

The version of the future we were in was not one where Peter saved the Cheerleader. He had the scar. How did that happen? It should not have if he could heal.

Claire did not have to go on the run from the Company? HRG was able to hide her?

Does not add up.

Unless - the cheerleader never had to be saved. Sylar always got Jackie - never Claire.

I'm not a fan of paradoxes.

Anyways: Future Hiro gives Ando a missing page from the comic. I'm guessing it is a vital clue - or how he dies so that he can change that event and break the cycle.

I'm guessing that one act will enable the bomb to be avoided.

It's all up to Ando now.

Further Comment: Did it say what Molly's Power was?

Yeah time paradoxes suck but they are a big part of comic lore.
In that scene, the beginning, it appears that future hiro's mind was being written up as he went along. Future Hiro didn't seem to be too aquanted with the new world. They havn't explained all the "time traveling rules" but the fact that there are processes that Future Hiro seemed to be following means there are some.

We also still don't know how he got the scar, it can happen after this season or during the explosion.

I took the ending of the episode as the future's way of correcting itself.

Only that she supposedly had the power to stop Sylar, but that is a vague statement.

Was the dark-haired woman with the accent supposed to be the Israeli from the comics? I forget her name.

Oh man, that was such a cool episode! I wish we had seen more of Peter and Sylar going at it.

Yes. That was Wireless.

 

[Silver Moon]

So far it looks like Heroes is doing its version of the "Days of Future Past" storyline.

Agreed. Excellent episode but they did borrow very heavily from that now-classic X-Men tale. But then again, with any series that can toss in a nod to Marvel by having Stan Lee show in a cameo it's only fair to steal from that source.

3 more episodes to go? What, there are only going to be five episodes this season? What was that supposed to mean>?

Hmm, maybe Peter got the scar after blowing up NY and deliberately didn't heal it as some sort of self punishment?

Personally, I don't think it's possible for Matt to become more dumb than he already is. Otherwise he would have read the new head guy's mind when he made the deal with him. Then lied his butt off.

This is still first season, the month long break wasn't a season ending or anything.

I think both/either can be chalked up to the Haitian. Perhaps the injury occured when his healing powers were blocked.

I wasn't paying attention, and thought that was Candace and so was surprised when it was revealed that Sylar had Candace...

Despite the long break, the episodes showing now are still part of the first season.
