Glad I didn't click on it. I'll probably go back and read those (assuming they keep old comics on the website) once the season is over to see if they fill in any holes, but I don't want to risk spoilers by reading them now. |

Regarding the Hiro/TRex pic, I think it probably something that will happen in a museum. I don't think a prehistoric journey is likely at this point.

Watching the ep again, I realized that whoever it was was right, Eden DID hit the code to open the door... which means there must have been some other dampening effect. Perhaps the power channeling or maybe something else?

my wife had heard on the radio yesterday (before the show aired, it was on Z100) that Adrian Pasdar (Nathan) said one of the actors was asking for waaaay too much money and they were gonna be killed off in the episode. in hindsight it makes sense - the Eden character is a very minor character, she's not even showcased in the marketing and advertising for the show, perhaps the actress that played her just wanted to be paid on par with everyone else. not saying this is 100% the truth, but reading between the lines it kinda makes sense.

The HRG character appears to be turning more and more into the typical government agent who's trying to control those that are different. Now it remains to be seen if it is the government or someone else, but I don't think his motives are "good."
As I suspected Eden died. The twist I love is that the Haitian seems to be not behind his boss 100%. I doubt it's because he's rebelling and trying to protect another super, because he didn't do that with the Cop. He probably needs Claire for something. There might be more to Peter's ability, too. He can see the future now, even without painting it... and in his "dream" it didn't appear that Radioactive Man was around. Maybe he absorbs powers more than just momentarily... it just takes awhile for them to pop up. At any rate, this is by far the best serial TV show going, maybe even the best show period.

From a historical standpoint, it makes sense that the Haitian is revolting against HRG guy.
After all, Haiti itself gained independence during a massive slave revolt, when the Africans rose up and killed all the white people on the island.

Maybe Sylar was playing possum in a James Bond have the bad guy tell you his nefarious plot before you make the miraculous escape kind of way. Then when Eden came in and said "No Mr. Sylar I expect you to die" it was either him or her. It is possible that Sylar has powers that HRG is unaware of and used those to break the barrier or he could have figured out what was blocking his powers and made an alteration.

I finally understand save the cheerleader, save the world. Had she not been saved he will explode and not be able to regenerate. Because he will explode, having her there will allow him to regenerate to continue on since he is, apparently, due to the way its filmed, the most important hero (along with Claire)? Anyone think this too?

Hrmm... I think Claire's regeneration will play a key role in "saving the world", as will Peter. I am just not sure that's how it will go down. I mean, if Claire's power allowed Peter to heal after being Ground Zero for a nuclear explosion, then I am not sure she ever needed "saving." It would be more like: cut her open, Sylar, take her brain, she'll just grow another!

Peter's health problem definitlely have to do with the number of heroes he has come in close contact with recently. You could see his health get worse as he met with the Cop, the cheerleader and then finally his brother, which pushed him over the edge. All this after being near sylar as well.

I kind of think maybe its not necessarily so much that its important for Claire to survive, but more so that its extremely important that Sylar does not kill her to gain her power. He would be pretty unstoppable if he added her power.

Well yes, but that is a health problem. Just using different wording, but it's definitely the powers and his inability to control or cope with them that is causing the issue.

My interpritation of "save of the cheerleader, save the world" was that save the cheerleader led to all the Heros eventually meeting which them working/being together is going to be crucial to saving the world.

i agree with 50% of this. i adhere to the theory that "save the cheeleader, save the world" is two different missions. you save the cheerleader so that Sylar doesn't get omega powerful. next is saving the world (in terms of stopping the nuke from exploding in NYC, which would surely trigger a nuclear Holocaust). |

The gun goes through the window first and breaks it, and her arm goes through the hole along with the gun; Eden's head impacts the glass but doesn't come through. Then Sylar reaches out physically and grabs her neck to pull her through. I think they intend us to conclude that he used the gun to break the window.

The woman pursued him first, with Parkman staying back to help the little girl that Sylar had been trying to grab (presumably, she's something special). FBI chick tried to apprehend Sylar, pulling her gun on him. He turned it on her, apparently some kind of telekinesis -- it did not appear to me to be voluntary. Parkman came in, didn't ask questions, fired several rounds at Sylar. He went down as if he had been hit, then exited straight up, it wasn't clear if it was flying or something else.

The part about him going down like he was hit doesn't really fit in with his stopping bullets with telekenesis. I'm thinking he might have some type of damage resistance thing going on. Unlike the cheerleader who heals fast but still takes normal damage, perhaps Sylar is very resistant to damage but doesn't heal super fast. That would also help explain how the hell he fell with Peter at the High School and didn't seem to have any blood around him and was able to recover faster than Peter who had the cheerleader ability to heal fast. |

Yeah, I think he's been shown moving things that aren't metal. I still wonder if he's got more power or more control over metal things, though.

I think it just makes sense that he'd use the gun to break the glass as opposed to Eden herself. If I had to break very thick class, I would try to use a heavy metal object as opposed to say, my hand.
Didn't he make some comment to Eden about how the gun wouldn't hurt him? I think between getting up after Parkman shot him and getting up after the fall, it's safe to assume that Sylar has some type of invulenerability thing going on. I think it's just a question of how strong it is.

I think its safe to infer that Sylar has absorbed at least 10 powers so far and probably even more than that. He's really the perfect villian because they can have him do anything they want and justify it by saying it was just another power he abosrbed.
Maybe his telekinesis power is limited to objects that are in the same room with him (ie not on the other side of a glass partition) so he had to wait for a metalic object to enter the area so he could use his magnetic power instead? We just don't know because they haven't yet explored what powers he has and what if any limitations his powers have. |

I'd say his telekinis is limited to small object. Now the question remains did Eden hold on to the gun as it flew to the glass (which I find odd) or does he have the ability to control a "small object" like fingers and force you to hold onto the gun? If he can control body parts but not the whole body this would also explain how he made the FBI girl turn the gun and point it to her own head

I wouldn't find it odd at all. The first instinct might be that Sylar is trying to take it away from her, in which case she'd want to keep it, and besides that, it happened so quickly that you could probably justify any reaction by Eden.

I watched the replay tonight, since there wasn't anything else I wanted on in the background while I played FOF and I noticed that Eden entered in a different code than HRG entered. He pressed 79#* at the end of his code. She entered 596 at the end of her code. Perhaps, she used a different code that specifically negates the power cancelling effects of the room.

Just thought I'd let people know that NBC has now declared that Zack, Claire's gay friend, is in fact not gay. Perhaps getting his mind wiped made him forget he was gay.

I didn't think he actually was gay. I thought the other cheerleader called him gay and he didn't deny it because it would've shown his true feelings for Claire.
or maybe I was reading too much into it. |

I was so confused about Zack. I didn't even think for a second that he was gay... until he was talking to Claire in her room, and said something like "I'm not gonna go to homecoming with you. I'm ok with who I am."
That made me think.. "huh? Since when was he gay?" Glad I'm not the only one confused by this. |
