Tonight's 'Heroes' felt like another 'setup' episodes. They seem to have those every once in awhile where you can just see the writers sitting at a giant chess table, trying to figure out exactly where to put all the pieces so the next episode will kick ass.



They did do a good job with Sylar though. Even though he killed Audrey his mom. I think that might have been the most forced accidental stabbing I've seen in awhile. Or maybe he did do it on purpose? It's clear he has the tendency...hm....I did feel bad for him though, when he had that moment where he pretty much asked if he could be normal and she told him no. That was pretty sad.

Mohinder was also getting some closure on his issues with the little girl. I'm not sure how helpful her power will be except for when Sylar is Nathan (if that actually happens).

I'm a little annoyed that everyone keeps TRYING to make the future happen. Hiro and his comic, Peter and the pictures - why don't you try to NOT make the bad things happen? What if Claire went to Paris? Did she go in the alternate future that we saw last week or did she try to stop Peter in that future?

I wonder what Linderman wants to do with Micah - is it something as petty as looting the banks when the bomb goes off? Or is it far more sinister?

My heart kind of flip-flopped a bit for Sylar...they seemed to be showing that, at least up until this point, Gabriel was still in there and that there was still a more human side to him that was capable of repentence and compassion. But his powers and burgeoning insanity got the best of him (did you see his face when he was making the "snowglobe" for his mother and he started losing it? cree-py), and after accidentally killing her (I still think it was accidental) I think there's no going back for him now.

Although, my rabid slasher climbed up one wall and down the other when he called Mohinder for help. Sylar realizes he may have gone too far and who's the first person he thinks of to help him try and stop himself? Oh yeah baby.

oh yes, the snowglobe face - that was weird. I thought he was going to accidentally kill her then. But no, first he had to have his heart entirely broken and jumped on, *then* he can accidentally kill her.

haha, poor Mohinder. He's like Xander - no special abilities except to look good and get slashed by rabid fangirls with everyone else on the show (though in reality he ends up with a very very young girl...hey, wait, it is JUST like Xander! Watch those eyes Mohinder!)

Yeah. Methinks Sylar needs a hug.

...um. I volunteer someone else to give it to him, though. Me, I'll be watching from a safe distance. Behind the shatterproof glass.

Dude, you cannot deny the angst-ridden chemistry that is Mohinder/Sylar. You just can't :P

I felt sorry for Sylar when she said "no".
