So now what's the line gonna be?

Find the Haitian, find the PS3?
Find the Haitian, find the missing Al Gore votes?

My above suggestions were jokes of course, but I have one that I think works in the context of the show and I am sure this is what is really what they are driving at:

Find the Haitian, find the missing muscles to fully animate Peter Petrelli's face... this is the real story of Heroes.

Grunberg was amazing in this episode. I'm glad he finally gets a somewhat bigger role in a drama...he's got some chops.

interesting episode, wanted a little more resolution to the issac story but we will obviously get that next episode which looks like it will be great.

so does nuclear man blow things up and then run or make himself an explosion once it blows up he escapes?

The Mohinder stuff was dragging, but I liked the rest of the episode.

Jayma Mays' character had a sort of John Doe power going on. Hopefully Hiro saves her.

Damn Sylar killed my cutie redhead waitress

Great episode tonight. Next week looks even better. That was interesting story from the cheerleader's dad. I'm just wonder why he and the Haitian guy are searching and marking these people with special power.

Oh Mohinder, you're so dreamy.

Loved the foreshadowing with the use of the can opener. Brilliant!

Hiro and Charlie were too cute together.

But did he really?

Spoiler:
Maybe Hiro actually leaps back to the right time and stops her from going to work? Just throwing it out there.


I liked tonights episode. It was nice to see the interesting storylines ie. (not the brothers or Ali Larter).

One last thing, just some speculation...
Spoiler:
Could Sylar just be a low level bad guy? We see the paintings of a "monster" and huge shadow over Claire.

I thought of that but it seem like her power is sort of useless to save the world so no point in keeping the character.

good episode.

mohineer's story was somewhat interesting but still don't understand why he's so important in this story.

at least we know a lot more about mr. bennet now.

But Hiro did show up in the picture on the board with her, so he made it back to some point in her life.

I was thinking how awesome it would have been to have Dominic Purcell guest star if that was her power

I liked this ep just becasue we got a break from Nikki and the brothers.

that picture of Hiro with the waitress in the end was great. I liked this episode, but yes, the Mohinder stuff dragged. Glad Niki was gone for once. and the Petrelli's.

Claire looked sooooper cute when she was lying on the floor making that poster. Cool to see her dad has finally shown the side he's on....and mini-Bilson

Grunberg rules.

The show is walking an incredibly fine line: enough mystery and complexity to perplex the audience, enough information and interesting characters to keep you engaged. Reminds me of the old days with Twin Peaks and the first few seasons of The X Files.
