Heroes: Fight or Flight

Heroes: Fight or Flight

So let’s get to discussing this week’s episode of “Heroes.”

Over in Ireland, Kristen Bell’s character Elle appeared asking about Peter. The Irish mob guy/pub owner sent Peter off with Kaitlin, saying he’d handle her. He ended up very dead and crispy. Elle’s character can shoot electricity out of her hands. Elle also called “Daddy” saying Peter was here and she was close, but she was ordered home. Who is her daddy? My guess is probably Bob, the guy running “The Company,” given she spoke of Peter as her assignment.

Peter finally opened the box, which told him his last name, had a photo of him and his brother and a ticket to Montreal. He then went all Isaac and painted a picture of him and possibly Kaitlin standing at an address, they figured in Montreal. Looks like that is where they are headed, especially since finding out about Kaitlin’s brother’s death. What or who is in Quebec? My guess is another person from the photo to be killed, someone with big answers. Of course it would be great it Peter found his supposedly dead father there.

Matt and Nathan went to Philly to confront his father. I was disappointed, they just showed an apartment! I wanted to see how they faked being in Philly. Anyway, Matt’s father can read minds and more, hinting to Matt that is where the power just begins. It seems he can alter reality, sending people into living nightmares, which is what he did to Matt and Nathan before escaping. Matt’s nightmare was him locked up and we got hints that his ex-wife’s kid may be his and not the other cop’s. Nathan’s nightmare dealt with the city being destroyed and once again he faced the ugly version of himself, which has yet to be explained. Is Matt’s dad the killer? It sure looks like it! However it also seems so early on to give away a huge secret like that. Either way, it seems he’s headed after Bob.

Surresh, worried about Molly, took her to “The Company” for treatment, in spite of HRG telling him not to. I think this is just a baaaaad idea. Afterall they had to rescue her from tmen last season! HRG and the Haitian were off on their trip this week, we didn’t learn anything more there. While at “The Company,” Surresh ran into Nikki who was there to be cured. However it doesn’t seem they are doing a good job as she lost it and went nuts. As it turns out, it doesn’t look like she wants to be cured of her powers as we thought before, but of her MPD. Has Jessica come back, or did she never leave?

Monica and Micah bonded over her new found powers this week. Micah basically let her know she was a copycat, she could learn to do whatever she saw. As the episode ended, Surresh showed up on her doorstep. He was sent by “The Company” to investigate Monica!

Hiro is still in Japan helping Kensei and writing messages to Ando, who is trying to decipher them and learn what is going on. Not to much exciting stuff going on with this storyline this week I’m afraid.

  1. Don’t get me wrong, I really like this show, but it’s getting a bit disjointed. There are too many questions that are begging for answers (Nathan’s nuke-face, why can’t Peter remember anything and what the heck happened to him, etc.), and they keep throwing in new things to ponder (who’s this chick looking for Peter, what’s up with Parkman Sr., and so on).
    I’m afraid Hiro has become a lost character, which is sad since he was such a lead last season. I hope there’s a really good pay-off coming and this isn’t the sophomore season we wish never happened…

  2. I think a lot of questions are going to be answered in the Nov 12th episode. This is the one where they fill in the gaps of the 4 months between the season finale and season premier.

  3. I am actually loving this season. I like the fact that I don’t know what is going on because it will all be filled in for Nov. sweeps and all worth the wait (at least I hope)!

    Hiro definately needs to come back. I don’t mind the subtitles, but I wish the would keep the words out of a white background.

    Still LOVE Peter. Can’t believe they killed that guy. I liked him.

  4. Wasn’t “9th Wonders” the comic Mendez use to make that Hiro and Ando used as their guide to the future? When it was shown to Monica it had a female hero/vigalante “St. Joan” so I’m wondering if shes gonna go clean up her neighborhood. With Bob running the company I do wonder if Elle is his daughter. I just love this season but could do without the entire South of the Boarder group.

  5. I think HRG and Peter are due to meet up; it looked like the background while he was talking to Suresh was the same as Peter painted.

    I’m thinking that Bob has 2 kids; Elle and West (could be wrong on that front though).

  6. I too am loving this season. Not much bad to say.

    Small theory: Elle and Peter obviously met at some point between HTSAEM and FML, since his new “spark” power is obviously the same as hers.

    Oh and SPOILERS SPOILERS for Heroes..
