Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#29)---10/29/07-'The Line'

[Krug]

And the plot continues to move along by bits and pieces... and the last shot doesn't make me too optimistic.

Yet another avoid the apocalypse scenario? Isn't the avoid the prophecy thing that HRG is putting himself through bad enough?[/sblock]

My money is on it being Kensai.

Yea, that is a safe bet.

I liked last night's episode. Up until this point, something had been missing but I couldn't quite place my finger on it. Then my g/f mentioned it and I think she's right: it's the bomb.

Last season everyone had a single, unifying goal to get behind. Not everyone agreed on the best course of action, but it was all focused around the explosion in NY and doing something with it. Now Peter has been to the future and seen what will happen, and the purpose is beginning to unfold.

I like that there are hints of a grand plot, but I also don't want the show to become too formulaic. I'm curious to see how things develop, and when Sylar gets his powers back.

Because you know he will.

Very good episode. I guess I'm alone in liking West; he's a good counterpoint to Claire, who wants to use her powers to help others while he sees his powers as making him better than others. Probably the only reason he isn't knocking over banks right now is that his power is only flight; he'll have to think of creative ways to use it. I do expect Evil Cheerleader Gal to either commit suicide or manage to do something to Claire so that they have to run again.

I don't mind the Hondurans either. I was very pleased at the scene with Sylar and Alejandro.

Yeah, I think that's Jessica in the last scene. She seems far too self-assured.

I'm glad Mohinder did what he did. Bob knows Mohinder is important to them, so I think that's why he backpedaled. He knows he can push Mohinder too far, now, too quickly. I'd love to see Monica become St. Joan and become the first person to put on a mask (Joan of Arc -> Orleans -> New Orleans -> Monica).

OK, the Generations arc is the first part of this season; anyone know when the third arc begins? All I know is that Episode 8 is the 'Four Months Ago' show that shows how we got from Point A to Point B.

I feel the same way. I'm really enjoying the show and this season but when I come to read this thread, I feel like I should have hated it. *shrug* Maybe I don't analyze it as much as other people.

I really enjoyed the episode, and I actually like the twins. Maybe their role is a bit of a rehash ever episode, but I like where they are going with it. And the now-impotent Sylar going along with them is excellent.

West/Claire - I'm not writing this off yet. It is fairly boring now, but I trust the writers have something in mind other than just Heroes 90210. There is going to be something big happening there.

Finally, it just occurred to me who White Beard is that Hiro/Kensai have to fight!

And you think using a ski mask was an accident. Come to the dark side Claire!

I feel so alone in this thread.

I like both the Honduran Plague Twins (not "Snooze Twins" thanks ) and the Claire stuff.

Hiro's storyline is heartbreaking and awesome.

Try my situation- I have no TV so I saw Heroes DVD and became hooked. Now I read and listen and through in thoughts but will not see the show again until next September when I buy the DVDs for Season II. Then people will want to talk about season III instead. groan.... can't win.

You can stream them on Netflix. Or watch them at NBC.com, I believe.

I liked the evil look of the female twin yesterday. For the first time she wasn't crying and whining about her power, she was assertive. Sylar must have a super high Charisma modifier. I wouldn't be surprised if the brother didn't make it to the U.S. and Sylar is the sole person in position of the ability to stop her plague.

Flyboy wasn't as bad either, I like the turning of Clair to the dark side. I found the hiro stuff kinda silly. Hiro knows about the time continium. Maybe I"m the kind of person who puts his duty above love. I also don't know how Kensei got to "that" locaton so quickly. Is Kinsei an impath? Is hiro the dragon who takes the Kensei's heart (the princess. Storywise I see the connection. What if Kensei has been waiting until this moment to kill Ando, thus taking Hiro's heart and turning him cold.

I'm surprised that they didn't explain the fast travel quicker by having peter accidently teleport them to Montreal. now they've left a paper trail (passports, plane flights).

The border scene was silly too. All those men can't break into the add placement car. I want to buy one now. No one thought to damage the tires.

i wonder who Adam Morgan is. What if peter was working with HRG and then went missing, forcing HRG to go with the more drastic plan b to take down the company. Possible thought is that Peter had to locate the Hatian and the Hatian wiped him out like he did Mohinder.

I have a theory about Peter's memory loss and the Haitian's involvement. I couldn't figure out why Peter was wearing the Haitian's necklace. There are dozens of good reasons why the Haitian might have mind-wiped Peter, but why leave behind the necklace, except to act as some kind of a message.

I think we'll have our answer when Pete catches up with Elle (Ellie? Is that her name? Veronica Mars/lightning girl, you know who I mean). What if Peter was working FOR the company, and Ellie was his partner? Possibly, the company's biggest enforcers were sent after the Haitian to bring him in and, obviously, failed. Haitian wiped peter, and sent him back to the company with his necklace around Peter's neck, as a message: "You sent the best you had after me, and this is what you get back. Leave me alone."

Why would Peter be working for the Company? No idea. Especially considering the note from "Adam", confirming that the Company was up to no good. It's just a theory, after all...
