Typing this all in spoilers, too tired to really discuss anything >.>

Maya and Ally there:

Spoiler:

Well, their abilities seemed to have taken a new twist on things. Somehow Ally cured it, and i'm not too sure how. He seemingly asorbed it all into his body from those around him. Maya is definately the cause, so is he the cure? HE also seeemd a bit weakened after he absorbed that black tears...

The KILLER:

Spoiler:

Seems as though that Hiro's dad is indeed dead, which makes me kind of sad in some ways...but at the same time it seems that the killer that is after the other founders of the Company had attacked Angela tonight...and from the way it seems, he is either invisable (Claude perhaps?) Or he has a powerful psychic ability...and might be the one Molly is talking about.

Bout the only two things I remember worthwhile for discussion...other than Claire cutting her pinky toe off...lawl...

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

A theory about the killer:

First of all, I'm going to mention the Helix drawn on Kaito and Angela's photos. They looked quite different... The one on Kaito's photo looked almost scrawled on. It was messy. The one on Angela's was very neatly drawn, with smooth lines. Different 'killers', maybe? Screenshots attached at the bottom of the post.

I read somewhere [maybe it was here, I don't remember] that at some point, Angela tries to take the blame for something Nathan did [or does]. Now... when Parkman and his boss are on the Devaux rooftop, he mentions to Parkman: "Looks like he took off and flew away... Know anyone who can do that?"

What if the person who killed Kaito is Nathan? On the same line of thought, at the police station where they were questioning Angela... She had called Nathan there. Maybe to give him an alibi for not being the killer. Did Angela do that to herself? Maybe something we saw there is related to what her power is?

Also, I liked how she yelled 'GET OUT OF MY HEAD!' at Parkman. The look on both of their faces was just priceless.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Spoiler:

Seeing from ep 2, no ability is unique. The flying stalker and the healing Kensei. I thought the stalker was Peter, in disguised form. But he havent absorbed light distortion ability, have he.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

About Claude:

Spoiler:

I was always under the assumption that he was dead, that Sylar killed him. I remember in some of the later episodes of the first season that Sylar could disappear way too quick (like when the cops arrested Ted), so I assumed that he got some skill that turned him invisible, and seeing as Claude was the only one to posses such skill...

FELIPE NO

I did not like this episode at all. As has been for all the episodes this season, the dialog with Claire's scenes is just atrocious and, this week, that's where most of the airtime went. Peter's scenes are generally the most redeemable (this week was no exception for me), but even those weren't really impressive.

Spoiler:

One thing that came off as very surprising was how Candice let herself be taken out by a powerless Sylar. All she had to do is not be where he saw her, but, knowing his serial killing tendencies, she let her guard down. And then there's the whole question of where the hell he is, but I can't imagine them not revealing that next episode.

All in all, pretty weak.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

How ya doing, buddy?

Man, Striped Phantom: Thanks for the links to the episodes. Even though the channel that shows Heroes have done the "un-Australian" and viewed them pretty close to the US, it still doesn't change the fact that it isn't directly screened from the US. So cheers for the links, bro ^_^.

Anyways, I will post in this thread once I finished downloading this episode. Glad to be able to join the thread for once!

I didn't mind this episode at all. I think it's getting better than the previous ones.

Spoiler:

Peter definitely steals the show. Claire's scenes were kinda forced. Also, I thought there would be no more secrets with the Bennet family, but it seems like they're bringing back that distrust between daughter and dad.

Maya and Alejandro, I just hope they won't repeat the same events for them again and again. They get into trouble, Maya cries black tears, and Al absorbs the sickness from everyone.

Kinda lame that they had to get a new actress (a bad one) to play Candace, only to kill her off so easily.
I was wondering what was going to happen to that character because the original actress is doing another show on the CW, "The Reaper"

Well, I'm glad she's dead. And now everyone is going to wonder how Sylar got into an unmarked Dharma station on the island..

Things will definitely pick up when characters are reunited.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Regarding Candice:

Spoiler:

Seeing as she can create illusions as oppose to just camaflouge herself, isnt there's a small chance that her "murder" was an illusion she created for whatever reason or scheme she had? Perhaps to keep Sylar in control by confusing him?

It would suck to kill off a charcter like that so quickly, when she can have more potential development.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Yeah, about that whole Syler/Candice thing.

Spoiler:

Did I miss something, or was her head not open with a big old mess on the floor? And then Syler has no idea why he can't use her power. Something's not adding up here. He kills her so he can steal her power but doesn't look at her brain and then freaks out about it. What gives?

I was speaking idiomatically.

This episode was pretty bad. I couldn't stop laughing at the flying scene when West demonstrated his powers, like it was something from Disney. The island that Sylar was on was perhaps the worst looking CG ever. Also, the end with the Noah Bennett painting felt quite forced, as have many of the endings this season.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Spoiler:

I originally thought it was possible that Candice had in fact not been killed, but she returns to her natural (fat) form after Syler "kills" her. While I admit it's possible she made the illusion of her being killed and returning to her fat form, it seems awfully contrived.

I'm fairly certain Candice is dead.

FELIPE NO

Oh god, all this recent mushy-mushy-kissy stuff is making the show painful to watch.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Are we watching the same show? Claire's story is admittedly corny and uninteresting, but we already know that'll get interesting once Noah meets Flying Kid. None of the other parts have really been laying it on thick.

I'm a little confused though.

Spoiler:

How did Sylar just wind up around the Mexican border all of a sudden? Did I miss something? In any case, I'm glad he's unable to take powers at the moment. I like Maya and her brother too much to have them die this early on.

Nice to see Charlie's power duplicated too, so we'll actually get to see it in use.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, makes me want to hurl.
This season is having a bad start..

I thought that kid would have seen Claire's dad when he almost ran her over in the parking lot.

No Jason Bourne Peter scenes this episode.. or Hiro..
Maybe showcasing some characters an episode is better than trying to cram them all into one ep, but they need to step up on the writing.

edit:
Next week should be a treat no matter how bad the writing could be. Kristen Bell is finally making an appearance!

BTW, anyone else catching the show on TV? I really think the promos they show are pretty retarded.
"What's in... [whisper] the box!!?? [/whisper]" and how they actually have to say Kristen Bell is joining the cast.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I agree with everyone who said Claire is boring. She is getting on my nerves. Everytime I see her, I am like "God, just fucking die!", but then, I realize that she cannot die. And that sucks.

Most amazing jew boots

Haha, you guys will love this week's comic. (link in my previous post)

I love that they've gone with that style to depict Kensei and Hiro's personalities.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I don't have a problem with Claire and her boyfriend, but I'm worried about the potential schmaltz in the New Orleans storyline. Ok, yes, Katrina happened and people are suffering, but I watch TV for escapism, and don't care to see it worked into the plot unless there's some purpose other than reminding us to donate to charity.

Is anyone else becoming annoyed that they're recycling powers? Another guy that flies, another person that can heal, and now another girl who can instantly learn (a little different from book girl last season, but close enough).

NBC promos for dramatic shows have gotten progressively worse the past few years. Last year, it was mostly ER that got the over the top drama guy voice, but this year they're doing it with every show.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

The "What's in the box?" promo was definitely the best, since Peter didn't even open the freaking box. I'm just happy they didn't think up a new tagline to be used for half of season 2 like "Save the cheerleader, save the world."

FELIPE NO

I liked "Save the cheerleader, save the world". It was catchy, and actually featured prominantly in the show. The problem with promos these days is they'll make a huge deal out of an object or a throwaway line, and then when the show actually airs, it has nothing to do with anything. A little misdirection is fine, but the whole idea of a "next week on ______" promo is to give you a taste of what's coming next, not to lead you off in an entirely wrong direction.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Oh man I swear next time Claire is dating this mega faggot I will stop watching this shit

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I want the Twins to get killed. Very soon, preferrably.

yeah for the flying guys again i was a little annoyed, but I'm not sure if Nathan still has the power to fly. His weird reflection in mirror is intriguing. Has for the girl that can learn, I think she can only learn fast from the Television, because both time she was watching TV when she learn something, it's either that or she has like a very good "photo-memory".

I suspect that maybe "the company" is actually recycling power and giving them to others, I don't know...
