According to the previews two heroes were suppose to die. The first was Nikki in the fire. Could the second one be Maya. Didn't she die and was brought back to life by the Claires blood. I don't want Nathan to die. My theory is that Nathan received Adam's blood which cured his scars. Maybe he also now has the ability to regenerate tissue like Claire, Adam and Peter.

I agree with a lot of the comments made about characterization. I think the writers made Peter dumb. Nathan is a lot more savvy than to make his abilities public.

OK so many things I wish to say...but first

*whap* Finn hey she is not 4 feet tall. I am the same height as the actress and we aren't short.. you people are just oversized!!!

That being said... interesting to watch Elle allegiance shift with more information. She's utterly psychotic so Noah should be very careful not to push too hard or fast or he'll be a crispy critter...
I'd suggest that Hiro stick next to Peter, but that'd be the naive leading the even more naive.
I doubt it'll take Adam more than a few weeks to break free... should have entombed him an an abandoned, collapsed mine shaft at the bottom of the ocean...

People (without vampire/Slayer strength, and who need to breathe) can't dig out of graves. Coffins usually have more than just a few inches of soft soil over them. (Sorry Joss, but what we saw in the Buffyverse? Not remotely plausible.)

There was a concrete slab over Adam's coffin, and he has six cubic feet of weight on top of him, just waiting to collapse if he does manage to claw his way through. Also, without air, he'll lapse into stasis until someone else comes to dig him out, and since Hiro is likely the only one who knows where he is. . .

Oh, I dunno, Chris. This season they all seem to have just lost their marbles ('cept HRG and Hiro). My favorite moment from last night was when Elle went after Sylar--that made a lot of sense to me. I was hoping she'd get a little further than she did there, of course. Oh and I found Nikki's heroic sacrifice pretty compelling actually. Funny, a lot of folks have complained about the "wonder twins" but I've found their experiences pretty involving and disturbing--the whole wedding thing was pretty horrific and Sylar playing Iago had some gravity as well. So, I was glad they didn't kill her off and that she was allowed to learn the truth about Gabriel. Oh, and Sylar shooting her made sense. In fact, I'd add Sylar to my short list of folks that didn't go all wonky this season.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Agreeing here- I'll add Claire to that list; I think she stayed herself also.
Wow, when ya boil it down, it's mainly Peter and Mohinder that lost thrusters- though they are vital to the plot.


Love the show Chrisisall

Okay 4 feet may be a little exaggeration. I said after being whapped. But not that much of an exaggeration.

I’m just average size. I dance with a girl who is oversized. She over six foot something and she wears high heels to every dance. I punish her for her freakish size by making her bend down to do underarm turns. It’s funny. But seriously, she could crush me like a bug.

Elle is really one of the more interesting characters. I can sense the good in her. She just wants her fathers affections. And is willing to do anything to get it, but I like the way she reacted to Mohinder complimenting her on saving them. She sort of like the anti-Claire. Where Claire has grown up with a loving family and a strong-will father who sacrificed and fought to protect her, Elle has grown up with little to no family and a father who treated her like crap. They are both naïve and a little dumb, but Claire is strong and independent and Elle is weak and co-dependent. Elle could be turned to the good side with only a little appreciation, but she will always be unpredictable.



Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum.

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.

That I get, but even for as dense as Peter has been acting lately, to just without hesitation try to strangle Hiro? Just seems a bit out of character for him.

Too bad about Nathan. As for Peter, seems to me if I could shoot lightning and fly and bend minds and move through time and telekinese, all in the privacy of my own invisibility, I might just go get the guy that just shot my brother, y'know???? And ain't Parkman a cop, couldn't he have done something other than stand there like a deer in headlights? Can any of these dopes (other than Hiro, of course, the only decent, clear headed, morally solid, emotionally centered adult in the series) "spring into action" like a dang hero should? My goodness but these supers can be a bunch of pinheads sometimes. The saddest thing you can do with a super hero is give him powers that he just doesn't even think to use, just so the plot can advance...





I have wondered this same thing. Was there no police or security at all at this press conference. Why didn't these three knuckleheads suspect that the Company would try to silence them? Why did Pete and Matt just sit there and do nothing. The assassin didn't even run, he simply WALKED out of the building. WTF?!?

Very true and I had considered this fact. Nathan is wounded, but definitely not dead at the end of the episode. Could be they did that for shock value. Plus how much of Adam's blood is still floating around in Nathan's system? Could that heal him or at least keep him from dying until paramedics make the scene?
