Dark Niki is sort of like the Hulk in terms of meek and strong (both in strength and personalities). The difference is that Dark Niki is still pretty when she takes over.

One thing did bug me though, but maybe my memory is just failing me. Peter Petrelli tells Mohinder that he was able to tell the future when he was with Isaac. Did I miss that? When did he discover he had other powers? It seems like he made quite a leap to conclude that he had Rogue-like powers. He was completely convinced that he could fly. What happens when he meets the Leech guy?

Also, when Claire's dad says to take away "Just the one.", we couldn't tell who he was pointing to. He could've been taking away Niki and it's Nathan who's the evil one.

And that's another thing. Do we actually know that Claire's dad is evil? We haven't seen him actually do anything evil. He could be rounding up all the people with powers to form an organization for good. Just the fact that we haven't seen him actually do anything evil makes me wonder if they're not setting us up for a bait & switch.

Um...actually, I don't think he is. But that's all I'm going to say.

Why didn't Mohinder (Expose') figure out that Peter Petrelli was Nathan's brother after harrassing Nathan Petrelli in the street? Is Petrelli that common of a surname in NYC?

He drew the picture of him floating above his brother on the roof before it happened

Doh! Must have missed that. Thanks for clearing that up.

IIRC, nikki has the "shape" tattooed on her right back shoulder. so far, the only two we have seen that have had the "shape" on them were nikki and the bald guy from the bar (necklace) that abducted the cop.

Does Niki or just "Dark Niki" have that, though?

What I recall is the tattoo emerging on her shoulder after the 'transformation.'

Tattoo or not, "Dark Niki" is a fucking turn on.

Saw an interview in TV guide with the guy who plays Hiro. Apparently, he has also worked for ILM in the past, including some work on the recent Star Wars flicks. Pretty cool.

The show was pretty much put on his shoulders last night. If "Future Hiro" came off in any way as laughable or silly, it would have killed the show. I personally think it worked.

When Future Hiro showed up, it gave me the same buzz as when I first read Days of Future Past in Uncanny X-Men 141-142 when they hit the newsstands.

I'm glad my nikname for Niki's alter-ego is sticking with people here.

I think they've established in the 2nd episode that the audience never really knows which part of the show's timeline they're actually watching.

Loved this episode. No love for the Nicole Bilderback cameo? That *was* C-c-c-Courtney right?

She was the one playing hardball with Niki to get her to attract the attention of Nathan in the casino.

My guess all along is that the Flying Brother is the evil one.

I wonder what happened with the coroner after Claire left? Wouldn't she alert someone, maybe her parents? She was dead after all and then disappeared from the autopsy table.
Even if the coroner found Claire, all she would believe is that she found someone that look just like her. No scares and no hole in the neck sure would convince her that she had the wrong girl.

Really cool - never seen anything like it on TV.
