Yet he's able to read an english edition of the New York Chronicle online?


Hey hey, never confuse logic with plot device. He didn't just read an english edition, he successfully did an internet search for Gabriel Gray, navigated through the links and such to find a story about the murder of his mother and deduced from it the correct information.

He understands english as the plot calls for. Obviously the series assumes you will handwave through anything that seems illogical. He doesn't understand when someone says "I'll kill you", but IS able to speak to Sylar when it's dramatically appropriate.

He might have been reading the Spanish language version of the page and then printed it in English for some reason - like the ability to convince other people to bust Sylar.
 

Doesn't google have translation tools? And how hard is to to figure out how to say "You are not taking my sister?" Granted, it would have been better if he had gotten the english wrong, but gotten his point across. I don't remember if he said anything else.
 

It doesn't really matter how intricately an excuse can be woven, it'd just be nice if the show provided such a justification in the material, rather than fans having to weave their own tale.
 


I'm way behind in watching these (last episode next week in the UK!) but I just had to comment on this ep. I sure agree about the "stupid tree" thing. Pretty infuriating.

Unlike many people here, I can't stand Sylars character. He should have been dead dead dead at the end of the previous season. The fact they brought him back this season at all just smacks of paucity of vision on the part of the writers, to my mind.

Hopefully season 3 picks up and gets to interesting again (double-hopefully without Sylar, for goodness sake).

Hey, I'd been saying Peter and Sylar needed to die since shortly after we figured out what their powers were.
