Heroes, anyone?

janezapchef

Yeah, that's why I'm thinking Kensei could be revealed as the father of one of them. Afterall, he is self-healing, which runs in the blood lines. And, Linderman also appears to have some sort of similar power, so, it could be him too. At any rate, both of them were around during the last wave of superheroes, and it's been shown that Mrs. Petrelli may not have been faithful to her husband.

Any thoughts from last night?

I'm having a hard time keeping up with all these storylines. I missed the first season, so I think I need to watch them and see if I can figure things out better. Is it okay to discuss last night's episode-will it spoil it for some? If so...don't read further...





















I don't understand the future Claire killing Peter. I was only able to watch the first half, so maybe it explains it later. ??

I am very lost this season. My SIL laughed when I asked him why it was so confusing! Claire has really become dark... Those two sidekicks just appeared from nowhere. Then it showed Parkman married to the speed lady...and she had a baby...and she's Molly's mother!

The 4th Petrelli seems to be someone older than freaked the old lady Petrelli at the end.

I watch this but don't sit and concentrate on it... I have to do something else whenever I watch TV or I fall asleep! LOL!

I think last night's episode was way too fast-paced. Daphne is not Molly's mother. She and Parkman are raising her together now that Parkman has custody of her instead of him and Mohinder. One thing I had to keep telling myself last night was that this was all four years into the future. I'm sortof lost with it jumping so far ahead, but it does make me anxious to see how it all comes together. As far as the 4th Petrelli, I don't think that was a Petrelli at the end. I don't want to my speculations out there just yet, but I have my ideas...

ragschef

Like I said in the last post, I can't wait to see how it all plays out! I'ma little lost now as to why this would happen four years from now, but it should all come to light soon. Atleast I hope so... My problem is last year was the writers' strike. It made the writers have to squish everything in before the season's schedule end. I truined the season for me. I hope they don't repeat that same mistake. Last night's episode was not a good sign in my opinion.

janezapchef

I was a die-hard fan of this show, until this season. I just think they are trying to put too much in each episode! I was telling my DH, every storyline is annoying to me right now, except maybe the Sylar-HRG pairing and Sylar in general. I was hugely disappointed last night. I keep tuning in each week with hopes that it will be better, but I keep getting disappointed -- last episode the worst of all. Killing off Noah was a HUGE blow for me -- I just can't handle seeing kids get killed. And, my guess on who Mrs. Petrelli is freaking out about is Mr. Petrelli himself. On Claire killing Peter... in these time jumps, I'm seeing that the future Peter is kind of an extremist, though, I'm not really sure what he's extreme about. It's clear he thinks the "fake" heroes are bad, but I'm not sure if he is now against everyone with powers???? That's all a little hazy to me. At any rate, since present-day Peter went back to the present day, I think that future we saw will not be happening because he will do something to change it. Soooo, technically, future-Claire probably didn't actually kill Peter. Make sense??? Probably not. I'm pretty confused.

janezapchef

I'll be watching again next week, but I'm not sure how much longer after that. Some end-tying needs to start happening, or my brain won't be able to take it anymore.

ragschef

Made sense to me. I thought it was Mr. Petrelli too. My DH has a different opinion though. I agree that there's just too much going on this year...


SO does anyone else think it strange that Sylar's (uh-hum, Gabriel's) son's name is Noah. Why would he name his child after HRG? Not getting it!

janezapchef

That is exactly why THAT storyline has me most fascinated. I think SOMETHING must happen to make him want to name his son after him. Of course, now that THAT future won't be happening, who knows???

Chef Kearns

Plus he's living in his old house! I wonder how he got control of his power. It seemed like he had a lobotomy making waffles (or whatever). I wonder how the future Peter loses his powers. Because the present Peter has Claire's power. How did he get rid of it? He had some powers, but not Claires? I don't get that.

I'm sad for Mohinder. One of the few brown-skinned people in that show and they've turned him into a lizard. That's too bad. I am anxious to see what they will do with the storyline. It has to be soooo much to keep track of. I cannot even imagine writing for the show.

janezapchef

I wonder if Peter can selectively heal, or something like that. I wonder if he "chose" to keep the scar to remind him of something. Kind of like Sylar keeping Mohinder's dad's broken watch all those years to remind him of the monster he used to be. Just an idea.

I know - - Mohinder was my favorite character all along, until the end of last year, beginning of this season. Now, I really can't stand him. Not to worry though, I'm sure there will be more characters introduced soon. It will just help the show be even more confusing!

janezapchef

I finally got caught up on this last night. What did others think?

I thought it was a pretty good ep this time. Not too much of the annoying storylines.

ragschef

I thought it was much better than last week. I still think that something needs to either wind down or pick up though. There's so much going on.

Poor Maya. I'm not a big fan of hers, never have been, but it makes me think that Mohinder is turning into a literal cockroach. Still not a fan of Daphne either. Sylar, I dunno, maybe things will get clear sometime. I kinda had the feeling that Parkman Sr was doing the whole Linderman thing. Had no idea that Mr. petrelli put him up to it. I wanna see Angela see him again. We didn't see that this week and the previews were a teaser.
okay, I HAVE to go to lunch now. I'm starving!!

janezapchef

So, what did we think this week? I thought it was really good. Maybe those first few weeks they were just trying to catch up for lost time and sqeezing too much in??? I think maybe the fact that Peter's powers were "taken" could explain how he is able to be scarred at "future Peter". And, I'm wondering if he's lost all of his powers (including the power to absorb them) or just the "extra" ones.

Chef Kearns

I like Peter and want him to get his powers back. Was there any mention before this season of his dad?

janezapchef

In season 1, Mrs. Petrelli hinted that Mr. Petrelli killed himself and had an unstable mental condition leading him to do that. I'm guessing the Company figured out a way to get him incapacitated and that was the story she went with, but who knows. Then last season, he was just breifly mentioned when Peter/Nathan saw the picture of the "original" heroes -- he was in the pic. It will be interesting to see where this leads. I'm just glad that it appears the show if FINALLY back to being enjoyable!

ragschef

I agree with Jane that it is now finally enjoyable. As far as Mr. Petrelli goes, he was mentioned several times in season 1 but season 2 was pretty vague about him, even with the picture. I think that Angela knew the whole time that he was around. She has the ability to dream the future and I feel pretty sure that she knew he was still alive, but I don't think she had it in good faith to believe that he was able to organize anything the way he did. I think that Mr. Petrelli is the leader of the villians and always has been and I have this sinking feeling that Angela may have been behind his "demise". That being said, I can't wait for Monday!

Oh and Peter, I"m not really sure what's going on there. Future Peter can still time travel and change images, so I'm not sure what to think...

janezapchef

Of course, future Peter may no longer exist since 1. he was killed by Claire and 2. he has now altered the past for current Peter. He suggested to get Sylar's ability, and that's why he was at the company in the first place. He got out of control. I'm not sure future Peter got the whole "butterfly effect" because from the looks of things he has really screwed things up. All this time travel is too much for my brain! I also don't get why Hiro can't just go back to before the formula was stolen and tell himself to do things differently. Future Hiro goes back in time quite a bit, so, what's the deal now?

I agree, Amanda, I'm pretty sure Angela knew all along that Mr. Petrelli was still alive and that she at least had a hand in his undoing. I have had that feeling since she first explained to someone in season 1 that he had committed suicide. It didn't seem like she was telling the truth.

I read somewhere that we will soon get a hint about who Sylar's son's mother is, and it's someone we've met before and "love".???

ragschef

Okay, the whole Hiro issue bothers me too. He's made this vow to never go back in time and now he's screwed himself over and that's exactly what he needs to do. It's frustrating me.
Peter I think will survive the future, I'm just not sure how all that will pan out. I can't get a handle on that line really.
There's something ust super evil about the Petrelli parents. I think Sylar is a true blood brother to the other two, I think that he was maybe their love child after Peter. I;m rambling now.
About Sylar's lover, my guess is that its possibly Claire with her being evil in the future and all. Although I think that that guess is a little too obvious. The only other guess I would have would be Meredith, although we don't really "love" her. Revelation, maybe?? What about Kaitlyn? Peter's lost girl? That would really make Peter hate Sylar...

Okay, gotta go!
