Phenomenal episode, if I do say so myself. Loved seeing what becomes of Hiro, or rather what could become of him. I'm just so glad to finally see a show with a few surprises. Any thoughts?

Yeah, I was a little disappointed to see the dark turn Matt's taken in the last five years. I understand that desperate times call for the same measures, but our boy seems to be taking it a bit far...

And our boy Sylar, always showing up at the damndest times as the damndest people. Must have performed his infamous craniotomy on shape-shifty girl...

Most surprising of all was Hiro's task has finally been confirmed.

Which raises some interesting questions. Did future Hiro know the truth? Did he understand how is tampering with the timeline changed events? It seems likely that he did. Why didn't he tell past Hiro what really must be done?

Why wasn't future Hiro killed in the blast with Ando?

Doesn't Sylar resemble something of the Mule from Asimov's Foundation trilogy?

This show continues to make me clap my hand over my mouth and mutter "Wow, just wow!!"

I just love Hiro and it was so exciting to see him different tonight.

This show is the shiniest since Firefly in my book, with BSG a close second.

Well, it wouldn't be the first time Hiro and Ando were separated. Perhaps Hiro was off on one of his missions...

And, yes, I think Hiro is finally realizing the implications of messing with the timeline, though now he HAS to go back and fix it.

Of course, tonight's episode was in away, entirely hypothetical, one possible timeline...

I've been typing up a storm at the 9th wonders board, I'm nearly Heroe'd out, but we covered a lot of topics.

I was saying Matt's sudden change in the 5 years from easy going pushover cop to asshole of the future seemed to big a turnaround. As someone said, things couldn't have been so harsh (his wife leaving with his son, the bomb) couldn't, shouldn't be enough to change him. So there's something that happened we don't know about, that maybe (if Hiro changes the future for the better) we may never see. Hopefull the comic will cover that.

It was already called on 9th Wonders that Sylar was Nathan in disguise using Candy's power. I scoffed at it because it sounded so implausible, till I really looked at the previews closely and Nate's one line (that you see in my sig) to Claire seemed off, and wrong. It sounded like a person who truly was a narcsissitic sociopath, and sure enough, it was true. And now we see the difference between the two future presidental paintings, one that Issac drew, which clearly shows a tough but gentler Nathan in the White House, and one that Sylar drew, which looked more like the Bizarro Nathan. So amazing how thses little details fit together. Issac's Nathan was Nathan, but Sylar's Nathan was him in disguise. Amazing.

Has anyone read the online comics? Especially the one leading up to this episode, it actually explains a little more what Hiro did and why (they covered it again in the episode but the comic answers a few more questions) And the whole disruption of time and space thing was probably what prevented him from going to see himself, that doesn't explain his past meeting his future, but hey, I'm willing to let my mind stay wide open here.

Favorite line of the night

pHiro to Ando: "I scare me."

I definitely did not like the dark side of Matt that we saw in last night's episode, but I suppose that was supposed to be indicative of how dark and desperate the times had become since the bomb went off in NYC. I did nonetheless find myself wishing that either Peter or Hiro would kill him last night.

I did not see the Sylar thing coming until "Nathan" made his comment to her about meeting Candy and then stopped her with his telekinetic power. Seems that twisted bastard has been busy in the last five years. Wish we could have seen Peter smacking him around.

Why do we keep seeing Issac in the flashes of NYC where Peter is going nuclear? Issac is dead. Is it Candy posing as Isaac or is it Sylar after taking Candy's power posing as Isaac? Did the writers screw up and put him in the clip before they killed him? Will Hiro go back in time to save him?

I so love this show.

I admit, I didn't realize there were on-line comics. Guess I have some catching up to do. And you're right, Sylar's painting did have a darker tone about it.

At first, during the preview last week, it did appear that perhaps Nathan had just become corrupted by the power he'd attained (presidency), however now his comment makes a lot more sense. Just curious if it was Nathan or Sylar that either convinced or forced Peter to go nuclear in downtown NYC.

Aahh. So much Heroes, so little time.
