Episode Recaps

I didn't rewatch this except for a few scenes so excuse the fact that this will not be as through as possible. The DirecTV with the DVR is in use at the moment and this weekend I have a wedding to go too. (I love weddings)

So, I am going to wing it. I mean I have been chatting about this episode the last few days at Heroes-TV.com anyway.

Episode impression and fanatic whining...

Nathan...he goes and see his boys in what looks like a private school in Washington DC. I am skipping an ahead here, but omg...Matt's dad is less than two hours away in Philadelphia!?!



Rumors and theories are screaming about. Is that reflection of Nathan another personality? Did he borrow that idea from his encounters with Niki and Jessica? The thing is though, if Nathan's other is one of the killers (I think there must be two of them now), I am afraid. Will he be able to escape his fate? Noooooooooooooooo! I mean Nathan doing the right thing at the end of "How to Stop an Exploding Man" just to turn him into a murderer. I have been brushing it off as a just guilt....but "Get away from me..." Very similar to something Niki has said to Jessica. I didn't want to admit it but I am getting ill with concern and worry here. No!!!!!!!! Don't do this to me! Ah! (Yes, I am okay, honest.)

They are throwing random clues, too Nathan having that picture. True he could have had inherited this from his daddy. Could be protecting Nathan? The picture of Angela is the hallway. My bias nature not wanting to believe this is possible.

"You are just going to get yourself killed, and I can't bear to lose another son."

Is he lost already? Does she know?

Peter! Its time to come home!

Hiro! Cause another rift!

I got the Kensei vibe on the roof, but what if it was Nathan? At this point am I just hoping it is him?

But then again....I still thinking Kensei is still alive in the 21st Century and that Hiro messes up the timeline some...so...perhaps?

Sorry, I haven't whined this much since my over specualating after Fallout.

And guess what I was partly right...oy.

Nathan making an offhand mark to Matt how his father didn't care for Kaito. How the last hug with Angela was just a little too long.

Angela told Matt that she confessed because if they press on they will find out about their abilities. True, but did she mean "Your father will find us"? The Nightmare Man. I am sure she must know what his power is. Or like someone said. Did she have a vision and knows Nathan did it? Gasp, I am really hoping it is the former.

The twelve.

Nathan said he recognized some of them but not all of them. So should I put on a happy face and assume that the killer is actually one of them? The Nightmare Man? But there was two, right? Oh I am getting depressed her. Just a show right? What? LOL

Mohinder, Matt, and Molly, Tipple M starring in Two and Half Heroes. They are so cute.

"Oh or are you just a 13 year-old boy that just wants to make daddy pay." ~ Mohinder.

"And oh and I am sure you are an expert on Father issues." ~ Matt

Definitely two parents finding over what is better for their child. Mohinder not wanting to scare Molly, and Matt who, though, he definitely has some selfish motives, believes that confronting the problem will perhaps finally give Molly some peace. If Nightmare Man is defeated, he won't be able to hurt Molly anymore.

Does ignoring a problem cause it to go away? But then again, would agitating a problem make it better?

Matt faced this dilemma toward the end of the episode when he convinced Molly to find Nightmare Man but when she did, he found her back. And Matt is shouting and crying in fear as Molly appears in some kind of trance screaming for Matt from inside her head.

Claire and West....

Not sure about West though. Company spy? Someone who has issues with HRG? The picture we saw last week, was that Claire and West kissing or so called evidence that it is Nathan doing some of the killing? By hiding Claire from what he did? *sigh* At this point, I am no longer sure. LOL. They are cute though. I would have love a trip to the sign.

It looked like kissing to me. But it also looks a little like Nathan in the closeup.

They are off to see the Mohinder, the Mohinder of Heroes. (Kudos for JessicaSanders for helping with this, lol)

Or Chandra as far as the Wonder Twins believe, who is a big buddy of Gabriel, the angel. Well, the fallen angel killed Chandra. Whoohoo. And he killed the car thief Derek with a brick. I wonder if people will realize a pattern here or blame the skull bashing murders on the twins as well?

I can't wait to see for the three to run into the poppy fields.

No Ireland this weekend, but the previews promised mystery and intrigue and things that are not what they seem. Hmm...like nightmares?

Loved the commentary, however the last time I checked Nathan only had 3 children. Are you counting Peter too?
