Um... he's also her cousin. Ew. I think he's just a happy kind of guy.

and probably happy to be able to share solidarity with another gifted person.

Legal in a surprising 26 states!
But I agree that he has that beatific smile most of the time.

Wow, the last two episodes have really picked up. And tonight's episode proves my hypothesis that Sylar makes any episode better. I like his new mission to turn Maya into a Sylar Mini-Me.

Great episode tonight, though I figured out who "Adam" is about 10 minutes before the reveal.

Great episode. I had a feeling when they introduced Kensei, that he would have a lot more to do with the story line. Especially since the main symbol was his battle standard.

Next week looks like it is going to answer a lot of questions. I can't wait.

Nodnarb · Nov 6, 2007 , 12:35 AM

Wow, the "Adam" part is crazy, props to you figuring it out early! That's one I didn't guess.

Can't wait for next week, this show is getting better and better!

Chuckit · Nov 6, 2007 , 01:17 AM

Eh, I more or less figured out the Kensei = Big Bad thing as soon as we saw that he was immortal. Still enjoyed it, though.

BTW, I still think there's a running contest in the NBC advertising department to see who can give Heroes the most bizarre commercial possible. Like, Elle is not a mystery — she's a character who appeared for a couple of minutes in one episode as a random hired gun and holds no interest for me other than being hot (and really, how many sexy psychopaths does this show need?).

Thanks to Big Mac (who pegged Kensei as the killer about a month ago), I figured out who Adam was last week. It was still cool.

I'm almost positive they haven't replayed the death of Hiro's dad because it would give too much away (now that we know Kensei's power).

At first I suspected that he came to our present with Hiro, but then I realized he could've just kept living. How do you defeat someone who can't die? Leave him drifting in space? At the bottom of the ocean? In a normal prison?

Ah, but they've hinted that she's not just "a random hired gun." All signs point to her being

Bob's daughter, which makes sense with the "Generations" theme.

Wozers. What a show. I'm enjoying. The Adam plot twist was slightly predictable, but good. Will the irish girl ever come back? If history changes, will she be lost in time?

Does that mean Clair is immortal as well?

smacintush · Nov 6, 2007 , 05:09 PM

I SOOO wish they would just kill off Claire's dad already so she can get on with being the hot super chick instead of the cute-but-whiney super chick.

(goes off fantasizing about all the weird fetish things one could do with a super-healer…)

Chuckit · Nov 6, 2007 , 06:45 PM

I like Mr. Bennett. He's pretty much the only character on this entire show with any balls.

scottiB · Nov 6, 2007 , 07:59 PM

Meh, this show is losing what promise it had. Episodes move glacially until sweeps when plot lines are tied-up in minutes.

Mohinder has no spine. Molly's big bad from last season, which could've been terrifying, is some shmoe who's vanquished into a kitchen. The powerful Linderman was actually Adam/Kensei's disciple? WTF? And Peter is spending season two trying to figure out how to control his powers--just like season 1.

The show needs better pacing and better pay-offs.

That's the truth, but it's always been true. I've always kind of viewed him as this comedy relief character who isn't half as clever as he thinks he is.

My sentiments exactly. It's pacing like a show in its 6th season, not its 2nd. The whole Peter-amnesia plot feels like a Star Trek TNG episode in the Holideck: just fluff and filler.

Yeah, but he's politically incorrect. So he will be killed off. This is a Peter/Mohinder show. :/

It's an NBC show. I'm surprised they haven't given Rosie a cameo yet.

Oh, I think it's the Peter/Hiro show (with special guests Mohinder and Claire). That being said, Peter's the one they almost have to eliminate inevitably, because he's way too powerful (the Thor/Superman dilemma, as it were). I suppose they could just de-power him or send him into hiding (kind of like the future timeline from last season). Boy did the Nathan get the short end of the power stick in that family.
