Okay, here’s the sad truth, I missed last week’s Heroes and haven’t been about to download it from itunes or catch it on TV at another time, so I need someone to give me the full run-up of what went down last week so that I won’t be behind tomorrow.

Basically, uh, wow...it's not that simple...

Adam's 400 years old
Sparky girl is Bob's daughter, like Claire is HRG's
Mohinder went monkey shit and shot HRG in the eye
Claire, Adam and Peter's blood can rejuvenate injured folk (just like Max's, lucky HRG!)
Hiro wanted to save his dad, but his dad wanted fate to happen
Hiro stopped time to see that Adam was the one that killed his dad
Parkman can bend peeps to his will now, and seems to be cruising near the Dark side

uh...there's more, but, finger-cramp...

Thanks.

Saw the Adam is 400 thing.

Saw Sparky as Bob's daughter coming.

Didn't see Mohinder going Monkey Shit - really thought they would cheat the whole HRG gets shot thing, but they went through with it.

Starting thinking that Claire probably had healing blood too. Didn't expect the whole bring back to life thing - that seems like a pretty powerful consequences.

I didn't think Adam was the killer of Hiro's dad. And I kind of thing Hiro's dad was one of the good guys - though it seems now that he was on the Dark Side from the beginning, but maybe reformed himself later.

Parkman going evil? I think I saw that coming too, after something that his dad said about power corrupting. Yeah, I kind of knew that was going to be an angle on Parkman.

Oh, also, Parkman imprisoned his dad in their old house (in his own head, that is).

...and West is cooler than in past eps.

Yeah, I already knew about the Parkman imprisoning his dad in the house thing. But West is cool? That just sounds like blasphemy.

Well, cool-er. He took HRG for a ride to get info about whether Claire was working for him, or if she actually just liked him, and during the assent, he reminded Bennet that he didn't have super strength... (heh heh, a vague "I might drop you" threat- that was cool).

Next two eps are gonna be good Chrisisall

I read a really weird spoiler this weekend concerning Sylar.

Select to view spoiler:


According to said spoiler Sylar will be done in over the next few episodes by Elle. From this weeks preview it appears that Sylar is going to shoot someone which leads me to believe he doesn't regain his powers. I can't imagine why the writers would bring him back this season then stick him in that god awful storyline with the wonder twins only to have him offed without regaining his abilities. Considering he was one of the more interesting characters last year I was hoping for a better exit. If this spoiler proves to be true it will be even more annoying than DL's death. I don't have a problem with Sylar being killed off but I think the writers could do better. I had always hoped he would come across someone who wasn't a patsy and have the tables turned when he tried to take their ability. Hopefully this whole thing doesn't pan out.

Not wasted on me- someone at Heroes must be a fan.
*SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!*


For a hastily re-written conclusion mid-season I thought it was great! I didn't even mind (too much) Maya being brought back. Only thing is, I totally agree with Ryan- dumping Adam in a grave, while creative, ain't the way to go to be permanently done with him (What- set-up for future comeuppance? Nawwww.)
Other than that- GOLD!
Zack is GREAT at being slime.
I feel bad for Micah.
Burger Girl better fix her helpless 'tude, though. Kinda wanted to see her go for a minute there.

Well...

Select to view spoiler:


Yeah the grave isn't exactly a permanent solution unless it's a welded metal box a few inches thick covered by 5 feet of concrete and then buried about 15 feet under... if it's a standard grave, Adam will dig himself out of there in a matter of weeks... plus he'll be even crazier and more revenge driven than ever before... so I hardly think that helps.

Ok nice to see Elle wavering in loyalty... I think it was Noah who shot Nathan... which upset me, but it just proves how far he'd go to save Claire..

Angela Petrelli should be put down like the rabid bitch she is!!!

Nice to see Parkman, Nathan, and Hiro were able to talk some sense into Peter... though you think he'd wise up about manipulative people.. how Peter could have lived with his mother for all those years and still be as vulnerable and easy a target is beyond me...

I think the role reversal of Niki dying in a fire was an interesting payback for the fact that her alter caused DL's death... though I worry about Micah.

Ok so all in all...good finale:)

What if it was West (Claire's boyfriend) who shot Nathan? He could have been there in time, he fits the general description, and he just said he doesn't want to be exposed as having powers- the same as Nathan's even!

Although it's probably Noah....

Select to view spoiler:


I am really worried about Peter. Nathan is his stability and the only thing that keeps him from ending up a disaster. Nathan is the ultimate big brother and Peter's too soft, gentle, and easily fooled to be out on his own.... It could have been West, but I'm thinking that was part of the arrangement that kept Noah's family safe. I think that's why he looked so horrified and strained at the end

STORYMARK


Did it strike anyone else as really stupid when Peter ripped the vault door off? Even still trusting Adam, he could have walked through the door alone, and nuked the virus without there ever beeing a risk of releasing it.

They've made Peter so powerfull, that the only way to present him with a challenge, is to occationally make him really dumb.

As for the comment above about Sylar leaving, when the season started, and they thoguht they'd be doing a normal 22-episode season, Sylar was to leave halfway, so Quinto could go be Spock. He was slated to return for the origfinal season finale.

How things will play out now.... who knows?

And as was stated in the other thread here, Nathan got the magic blood, so he's probably coming back as we type.

Ah, but how long does the magic blood last? Seems like it'd be pushing it if they could become immortal from a single injection.

If that were the case, I'd bet everyone in the company would have used Adam's blood to become Immortal long, long ago.

OTOH, Peter may have healing blood, and Claire is likely still fond enough of her biodad to donate a few pints (especially if Uncle Peter is the one to ask).

And Adam won't be digging out of a grave. He may be immortal, but his strength is only human. There's a concrete slab over the coffin, and even if he did manage to make a hole, all the dirt would pour in and immobilize him under its weight. Plus, coffins are airtight, and Adam still has to breathe. He'll probably go into stasis (and maybe even rot a little) before someone digs him up.

Oh, and Pete needs to reconcile with Hiro; Peter doesn't have the fine control Hiro has, and that may be the only way to recover Caitlin.

Perhaps. But I think, as portrayed lately, Peter is too stupid to think of useing his own blood. Also, I wonder what the timeframe is on reviving someone with the superblood. Claire isn't exactly nearby.

Do we know for sure that he needs to breate? One way or another, Adam will be back, I have absolutely no doubt of that.

That very well could be. Though I think they just need to find a way to de-power Peter a bit, or just kill him off outright.
