Heroes spoilery poll

Behind the cut, a poll that's spoilery for next week's previews (but not more than that--don't spoil me more, please) and a few brief comments on tonight's episode





[Poll #926228]


I'm too sleep deprived to say anything very coherent about this episode. I feel so bad for Mrs. Bennett and Claire, though. Agh! If Mrs. Bennett has permanently lost her memory, that's heartbreaking. And stoic Nathan, obviously *wanting* to connect with his daughter but unable to, also broke my heart. (Damn. Mrs. Petrelli is quite a cold bitch, isn't she?)

Is it wrong that I want Sylar/Mohinder slash now? I'm actually not particularly invested in either of those two characters--even though that's a potentially interesting storyline--but they are both very pretty. Oh, Mohinder. I didn't think anyone could be dumber than Ando in this episode, but you really went the extra mile. Maybe the special power Sylar will get out of you is your extreme stupidity? (Porny thought: maybe Sylar could discover that sex is an alternative way to sucking out people's powers, so to speak. Damn, I haven't been reading Heroes fanfic--has anyone already done this scenario?)

My one complaint about this show is how much it telegraphs its plots. I mean, did anyone *not* know, the minute Ando tried to assert himself, that he was being completely scammed? Sigh. I wish they at least had given that a little twist, or something. I did love the way Ando was quoting all of Hiro's lines back at him, though, and I also like the fact that he *wants* to be a hero, even though I fear he's just destined to always be the dupe or the comic relief.

I'm frankly loving the Jessica storyline. She is one hot assassin, and despite my Greg Grunberg love)
Matt bores me, so I found Jessica throwing him out a window amusing rather than shocking. And I love that her next assignment is Nathan, even though that was entirely predictable. It is pretty fun that we're finally getting more interaction among the characters and it's all violent!
