I am – Hercules!!
I have just a few more questions, then I think I'm done. SPOILERS FOR TONIGHT'S EPISODE AHEAD ... The Haitian continues to cancel powers. Hiro and Ando continue to follow Daphne. (Can’t blame them for that!) In a cinema, Hiro seems to learn she’s doing this for money. Did Daphne not make that clear last week? “I should never have given you up for adoption,” Angela tells Sylar. Noah is partnered with Sylar, who pretends to be an FBI man at the site of a bank robbery. Sylar bashed in brains with a rock last season; now that he has superpowers again, why is he suddenly trustworthy? At the site of the bank robbery, FuturePeter retrieves PresentPeter, leaving Noah to fend for himself. Why did Peter put Peter inside a prisoner with superpowers? Why doesn’t he recapture Sylar and punish him for what he did to Claire? Why does he leave Noah in such a fix? Why does he care what happens to Claire but not her adopted dad? Claire’s biological mom smokes. And Claire doesn’t want to go to school. Claire wants to fight. When the flames suck out all the air in the box, why doesn’t Claire’s mom have difficulty breathing? Matt sees more paintings. And learns his future has changed. And learns he can see the future too. But doesn’t seem too concerned about phoning in what he knows about Peter killing Nathan. Tracy, who looks like Jessica and Niki, freezes a flower. Video from the Corinthian Hotel is played for Nathan. She also meets Micah and learns she and Niki were born in the same hospital on the same day. Dr. Zimmerman announces he created Tracy. Did Micah ever get D.L.’s medal back? Is Monica out in the car? Four superhumans rob a bank with flaming hands and telekinesis. Good thing Peter shot Nathan to death to keep him from revealing to the world that there are people with superpowers! Noah announces he’ll kill Sylar as soon as he can learn Sylar’s weakness. Too bad Noah wasn’t there when Elle incapacitated Sylar with her lightning powers! I asked in talkback last week why Peter doesn’t just zip back a couple days and zap Sylar with Elle-lightning --before Sylar could open Claire’s skull and steal her self-healing power. It’s what I would do if I had Peter’s powers. Save the cheerleader, save the world, right? One thing I wouldn’t do is wander back to my apartment and string a bunch of yarn across my living room. At least one talkbacker suggested Peter won’t go back two days to save Claire because he knows the past can’t be changed. Does that make any sense? If the future can’t be changed, then why wasn’t New York vaporized as it was in one of Hiro’s earliest flash-forwards? The fact that New York was saved also, I think, renders pretty silly Hiro’s decision to never again travel back to the past. He could effortlessly trap speedster Daphne that way, couldn’t he? We’ve seen many times in the movies that one can tell smart superhero stories; why does “Heroes” seem to insist so strenuously that we turn off our brains?
