He’s been my favorite since the first episode. He’s so damn likable and he had (up until the end of last week) the most awesome power on the show. Now he has the most super bitchin, kick ass rockin’ awesome awesome power. Totally looking forward to this tonight.

I've just begun this, and, watching the recap... I don't know if this was in the episode itself, but after showing Hiro get punched in the face, they added a "Mortal Kombat-esque" "uuggh" to the effect.

This is the show that makes me wish the DVD season set was already here. It's the show that I most want to see the next episode. Tonight was no exception.
Loved Nathan's landing. Tres cool. His take-off, and subsequent change in direction was good for a "whoa".
Still having a laugh at the blackmail going on at the Montecito. Does Ed Deline know about this?
Ando tracking down Niki with whois. haha.
Hiro at the restaurant was cracking me up when he strikes up the semi-conversation with Nathan.
Peter is definitely going to have to get the moniker "Mimic". His completion of the painting by being near Isaac was a good use of his power, and he didn't even need to get high.
Matt using his power to spice up the home life was pretty entertaining, but his trip to the quickie mart was predictable for telepaths not know how to keep sane with a large number of minds all stressed about his gun-welding status after talking (coercing?) the would-be hold-up guy out of it.
The quarterback got "hollowed out" with a massive identity wipe (though it left his language abilities intact). That null-n-void dude is pretty badass in this respect.

I'm so glad these people are actually getting to use their powers. I was worried that they might go all "Lost" on us and stretch out the discovery of each hero's power over the course of the season(like Lost has pretty much milked any mystery for all it's worth).
