Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#30)---11/05/07-'Out of Time'

Wow, great, great episode.

This is what makes the show work. Last season was like this two, you'd have a down episode or two as they moved the chess pieces around the board and then they'd unload a killer episode.

Poor Kaitlyn, stuck in a future that may (we hope) never happen. Will Peter ever be able to rescue her?

Hiro was awesome, he is really coming into his own.

Nikki's virus is interesting. And it was good to see DL again.

The reveal of Adam...kicka**.

This episode mostly kicked several kinds of butt... this is the Heroes I like!

That said, I still don't care about Claire and West and HRG. I really do think that Claire's story was over last season - a holdover from the old plan to rotate the cast after each volume. The whole storyline feels shoehorned in.

The other negative is that during the episode, my friend was completely confused by how much was going on. Now, I didn't have that problem... but I also come here and discuss the show to death. Still, it makes me wonder how many other people were lost.

Matt owned this episode. Hiro and Peter were interesting, but he carried it. I also love Nathan confronting Nikki... and Bob's look of "WTF, all you do is fly" in response to Nathan saying he'll handle it.

It's fitting that Angela survived the plague. Nothing can kill her.

My pet theory (which I'm sure is not original) is that Maya comes to NYC and they give her the Shanti virus to take away her power to prevent the plague. However, her power lets her transmit the virus, especially to non-powered folk. That would tie her into the story nicely.

Mohinder is a stupid, stupid man.

We learned that last season when he had an unconscious Sylar and didn't cap him, instead waiting till Sylar was awake before trying to shoot him.

As for this season I loved this episode. I am starting to wonder now what power Angela Petrelli has. She managed to give Peter at least part of his memory back. She is definitely part of the old group which means she has some power.
 

Interesting thought...Claire is essentially immortal and un-ageing. She'll be hated at her 25th high school reunion.

And yes, there are other interesting thoughts that go along with this, but are not quite suitable for grandmothers so will go unsaid.
 

Great Episode. One of the best of the season. The one underlying thing I am enjoying about this season is that we are seeing how the powers can be used once someone gains full mastery of them.

I can't believe no ones talking about Peter's Mom's power, which I think i have figured out. I think she has the Hatian's power. This makes sense now. Remember at the end of last season when Peter seemed to be going in the same place over and over as if he had lost senses of his directions. Then this season she helps him regain some of his memories. Awesome.

I still think that Bob will show that he can transumute any metal, not just gold.

Mohinder remains stupid.

I am enjoying the HRG, Claire, West storyline and can't see how this was just shoehorned in. it seems that everything is about them. They are more at the center than people thinmk. The paintings (which we saw of happen last night) are driving this story arc. Claire's power is proving to be (overtime) the best power and she needs to remain in the show. I am intrigued by HRG. Is he really getting sloppy. I can't imagine that he left his finger prints by mistake. It seemed that he would not have gotten caught if he just erased the guys memories of that evening instead of killed him. A rare bad plan by hRG?

So what happens if you go to the future, leave your girlfriend and then change that future with her in it. Does she get erased from time and is this seeding a plot for a future villianess. of the none hero dna kind.
 

Gosh this episode just didn't work for me. I thought it dragged, and once again echoed too much of last season. I'm glad Hiro is back in the present, but a lot of things just aren't clicking. With the series dropping to third in its time slot, not sure if it can continue for much longer.

I think Angela Petrelli has the Voice. Like Eden did in the first season. She seemed to command Peter to remember and he did. A very powerful and abusable ability.

While HRG does seem to be more emotional and near the edge right now, I think he intended to let the company know he was on to them. He isn't that sloppy.
 

A great episode. Some annoyances, but overall very enjoyable.

The Adam Monroe reveal was fantastic, and it's nice to see Hiro back with Ando. The 'possible future' events were pretty interesting as well (and same with Angela Petrelli). No Sylar and Honduran Snooze Twins improved the episode further. And maybe Niki will die! Yay!

The annoyances include even seeing Niki (who has caused nothing but grief and problems in every episode and season she's been in), as well as the West/Clair/Bennett storyline which is going nowhere, AFAIC. And Mohinder is stupid, which I find unfortunate.
