Heroes
Oh Heroes, you are MADE OF AWESOME.
Even in an episode where we spend most of the time with the plotlines I am least interested in (Matt's, Mohinder's and Isaac's) I was completely captivated. How fun that Mohinder is being haunted/communicated with by his dead sister! And I actually felt bad for Isaac, having to shoot up right after he just detoxed. Not to mention I didn't want to strangle Eden ONCE during this episode! And I even felt bad for Matt, rather than just being bored by the whole adultery subplot--his interactions with radioactive!man were compelling, especially when they compared the marks on their neck. I *love* how we're finally finding things out!
Of course, as soon as we saw Sylar stalking Memory!Girl, I knew she was toast, which is really a pity since she was pretty damn cute with Hiro. (And was Ando a little jealous? Or just mad that he had to eat the weight watcher's lunch?) But I guess the real question is, in trying to save her will he endanger the whole world? Or just himself? I don't know what theory of time they're using in the show: is he safe because we've seen his English-speaking future self, or could that be an alternate time-loop that is now foreclosed? At any rate, I'm very worried about him, though maybe it is Ando I should be worried about? I suspect if he *is* able to save memory!girl, though, there's going to be some sort of cosmic price to be paid, and I just hope Hiro and Ando aren't the ones paying it. (They could sacrifice Eden or Peter, I wouldn't mind).
And yay! Confirmation that Mr. Bennett is not entirely evil! He's not entirely good, either, which is fine with me, but I'm so glad he's not a mustache-twirling villain. And this project has been going on for 16 years--very interesting. So is the project actually *activating* people's powers, or helping them control them? Or both?
Damn, I love this show.

I guess there still could be a link. Perhaps the boy is a dream-like manifestation of a young Sylar trying to get Mohinder to help prevent him from becoming what he becomes. On second thought, scratch that - I think it's reaching. I don't think the kid was malevolent, I think he was trying to help Mohinder and get him to go back and continue investigating his father's research.
