Heroes: How to Stop an Exploding Man...

[fajrdrako]

maaboroshi and I did a lot of screaming and speculating as we watched. I loved it and can hardly wait for next season.

My main question is: Will Peter be alive and present next season? My secondary wonder: will Claude be back? Could my two favourite characters be gone for good?

Well, yes, of course they could be, but I'm sure that they will be back.... If it's like comics at all (and it is), the good ones are never gone for long.

It's an amazing thing, this show. Even if Peter Petrelli were dead and gone and never to return, I'd love the show still, for so many reasons - so many good characters. I can't think of any other show where I would forgive them for killing off my favourite. Not that I think they have done so, absolutely not.

Oh those Petrelli brothers. Their "I love you" scene was one - you will not be surprised to hear - was one where maaboroshi and I were screaming out loud. Yes, Nathan has redeemed himself yet again, without every clarifying himself in my eyes - and I love that. Mama Petrelli is still scary. Scarier than ever.

What was that with Charles Devreaux and Peter's vision of his own past? And all that about Peter's unconditional love? I loved it all with a passion, but I don't entirely understand it.... But the speech about Peter being love and that being the important thing further gives me hope that he will be back, that the heroism of the Petrelli brothers will be redemptive and continue to be significant to the story.

Matt was interesting again.

What was Isaac's plan, for which he died? Did that happen?

Niki is still pretty dull, but she had some good moments - such as when she saw Jessica's reflection and Jessica told her that Candice was not her. Though I really like DL's power, he has been becoming increasingly dull too, leaving Micah as the only interesting one in the family.

Mr. Bennet - it's now predictable that he should be wonderful. As is Claire. And we now know his first name. That seems as significant a revelation as anything else.

I wonder who Molly's bogyman is, and whether he's someone we've met.

Hiro was wonderful, particularly in his dialogue with Ando. And the bit we got of Vol. 2 - was an eclipse in the 17th century the cause of the genetic mutations? Or were there already mutants then, and our characters their descendants?

My secondary wonder: will Claude be back?

My guess is that Claude is gone and brain-eaten by Sylar, because of the fresh blood on the floor of the loft. It explains why when Peter says "He must be hiding in plain sight", Sylar appears *out of nowhere*.

Poor Claude.

And I assume that Peter will be back because he is indestructible. :)

And "Noah" is quite the appropriate name for a man who goes around collecting beings to save the world. *g*

Well, if you can forgive them for killing your favourite you're a better woman than I am. And I don't have anything else to say about that.

Emma and I did quite a bit of sqeeing last night. And when Nathan and Peter did their thing we just about fell out of the bed.

I was hoping Claude was still alive since he just up and disappeared (so to speak) but that explanation is pretty good and probably right.

And for some speculation. I wonder if Grandma Petrelli is Molly's monster who can see her. Grandma is pretty fearsome and I speculate that her power is to influence people...make them do what she wants them to do. It's not perfect since Nathan did break away finally.

And Charles was a surprise.

I did think the ending was a bit too fast. I was left thinking...was that all? Hiro stabs Syler and that's it? That's the end of Syler? Well, apparently not. Did Molly's monster drag Syler's body into the sewer? Which would discount Grandma since I don't see her running around in places like that.

Isaac's part was to draw the comic that showed how to Kill Sylar.

Loved everything you mentioned!

We have a cool new site to play with:

Claude will be back, depending on CE...

While I'm not a fan of Petrellicest, I think I'll squee with them this time. The 'I love you' scene just seems such a simple and wonderful way to end that storyline.

I'm glad that for once the fictional world was not saved from its doomsday because boy meets girl, but saved by other kinds of love, like familial love(Nathan&Peter), like friendship(Hiro&Ando). Thinking of that, in Torchwood, the world is rather endangered than saved by Gwen and Owen and maybe Ianto who try to save their lovers.

And I can't help thinking maybe Hiro will turn out to be the kensei himself...

And I really, really hope CE will turn out to be available for the 2nd season of Heroes. Claude's interaction with Peter is wonderful and, doesn't he still have some trust issues to solve with 'Noah'?

You asked me to keep you informed of any Heroes news. I think this might qualify, courtesy of E! Online.

NBC is rumored to be adding several new characters to Heroes, including a romantic interest for Claire (Hayden Panettiere), a 28-year-old black surrogate mother for Niki's (Ali Larter) son, an Irish mobster, and a sexy Latina, per the Hollywood Reporter.

My interest is piqued.
