What a great blog! I love his line: That’s something I love about this show. You can be in the middle of, say, a props meeting and suddenly a metaphysical debate breaks out.
They're so fannish. It's like debating where "Days of Future Past" comes in on the X-Men alternate-universe timelines. Such fun!
Putting aside his betrayal of Bennet (which sucks out loud),
Well, yes. First he delives Molly to Bob. Then he turns coat entirely. Mohinder! Can a person trust him with anything? I'm beginning to think not.
If you're operating as a double agent in any context, you never, ever, ever, ever tell the people you're double agenting against about it to their faces if you want a long life.
Which is why his action was stupid as well as dishnourable. And pretty much ruins any tactical effectivity he might have with either side of the fence. He didn't even need to take a stand at this point, though I suppose a general impulse to messy suicide can happen at any time.
Mohinder is the same guy who put one over on Sylar and then allowed Sylar time to monologue his way out of a perfectly good curare trap. *head desk*
Mohinder is frustrating to me. His beautiful looks and his beautiful voice keep seducing me into believing he really is good, that he really does have some brains and backbone, that he really isn't just a combination of victim-in-waiting and incipient train wreck. Then over and over again he does stupidly senseless things and proves me wrong.
