I am – Hercules!! HEROES 1.11 FAQ What’s it called? “Fallout.” Who’s responsible? Teleplay is credited to Joe Pokaski (“Crossing Jordan”). What does TV Guide say? “The heroes struggle to come to terms with the Texas tragedy; more is learned about the nuclear bombing predicted in Isaac's painting; Matt and Audrey (Clea DuVall) pursue a new lead in their hunt for Sylar; Niki makes a difficult decision, which will allow her to keep her family safe. Sandra Bennett: Ashley Crow. Zach: Thomas Dekker. The Haitian: Jimmy Jean-Louis. Ando: James Kyson Lee.” How do the heroes come to terms with the Texas tragedy? Nathan comes to Odessa, where Peter is being held on suspicion on killing Jackie the cheerleader. Matt and Audrey come to Odessa too, to investigate all the weirdness surrounding Jackie’s murder. Jack Bennet admits to Claire he knew about her superpower all along. Thanks to Eden, who is apparently pursuing her own agenda, Isaac comes to Texas and finally connects with a distraught Hiro and Ando. Why are Matt and Audrey still pursuing Sylar? Wasn’t he captured two episodes ago? He was, by Jack, Eden and the Haitian. But apparently the trio don’t work for anybody who’s talking to the FBI. Work for? Jack Bennet’s not the man in charge? He’s reporting to … somebody. He participates in a phone call early on telling him he is not permitted to destroy the captive Sylar. Who places the call to Jack? We don’t see or hear who’s on the other line. Are Eden McCain’s weirding-witch powers keeping Sylar from escaping? Apparently he is held in a room that somehow deprives him of his powers. We’re not told how it works, but I suspect that will change next month. Was Jessica smart to use a bullet to stop a man with Kitty Pryde powers? Jessica’s plenty smart. What’s doing with Mohinder? Not much. I think he’s only in two quick dialogue scenes. The first depicts him returning to his Brooklyn apartment and finding a note that ends, “Now get back to work. Love, Eden.” (Though it should be pointed out that Mohinder is not the man Eden kisses this week.) Does the ghost of Mohinder’s pop favor the younger Suresh with a few bars of “Major Tom”? The late Chandra Suresh remains wholly absent this week. What’s great? This being the last new episode before hiatus, we’re provided several fascinating new cliffhangers to stew over for the next several weeks. Invisotext engage. Eden makes a shocking decision almost certain to forever alter her role in the series. Isaac literally paints a memorably dire picture of Hiro’s future. Claire begins a chat with one of the last individuals you’d expect her to be chatting with. And Peter suddenly finds himself united at last with the entire legion of justice: Mohinder, Matt, DL, Micah, Niki, Claire, Nathan, Isaac, Simone, Ando and a very sad-looking Hiro. (I note that Jack, Eden and the Haitian are nowhere in sight.) What’s less-great? The Niki-Jessica-DL-Micah business has seemingly grown so detached from the rest of the story, one grows restless whenever we’re returned to it. How does it end, spoiler-boy? “Peter. Peter! Peter!! PETER!!!!” Herc’s rating for “Heroes” 1.11? ****1/2 9 p.m. Monday. NBC.
