[Fast Learner]

The descriptions of this week's and last week's show are very interesting, since they don't seem to have matched the episodes all that well.

That is fast becoming a recurring theme in these episode writeup's it seems.

 

[Pseudonym]

I wish I had Hiro's powers, then I'd move ahead to next Monday.

A much better episode ths week than last. Not much happened - but a more enjoyable...watch all the same.

Yes. No. Yes. A lot happened in that we learned almost as much in this one episode as we have in any two or three of the others. For example: Syler does have some telekinetic ability. How Claire ended up as Bennet's adopted daughter. That the guy who tried to snatch the girl from Matt and the FBI chick actually was Syler. (That seemed most likey, but I wasn't 100% sure.) That Claire's timeline is in sync with everyone else's. Etc.

 

[Crothian]

Syler does have some telekinetic ability.

We knew that, we just saw more of it

How Claire ended up as Bennet's adopted daughter.

I missed that, what did we learn?

 

[Dog Moon]

Haha. The previews for next week looked pretty darned good. Finally gonna figure out that whole 'save the cheerleader, save the world thing' apparently, unless the previews are inaccurrate.

Niki begins to understand herself.

Did I miss some of the show, or was she not even in this one at all?

And... nevermind, yeah we all know that 'synopsis' was pretty poorly written.

 

[Dog Moon]

That Claire's timeline is in sync with everyone else's.

I thought that was proven last week when the girl who had befriended the Indian called Claire's father to mention his leaving.

 

[The Grumpy Celt]

'save the cheerleader, save the world thing'

My God, what have we come to when the fate of the world depends on some vapid, bleach blonde adolecent cheerleader?

Forgetting that the world does not deserve to be saved... besides, if you save if, then Cylons are gonna show up any minue now anyway.

We saw neither hide nor hair of Niki, but she is apparently back next week. However, I would not bet money that she - or the Senator wanna-be - will come down on the side of the "save the world" people.

It was also interesting that in the exposition Claire's father gave, he revealed that some group has been collecting heroes for at least 14 years.
