"the Hard Part"

Now knowing what is at stake if they fail in their mission, Hiro and Ando's determination to save the world is put to the test. Committed to the path, Nathan takes some surprising steps to guarantee his election. Jessica and D.L. begin to learn how their family fits into Linderman's plans. Thompson brings someone new into his company's fold. With more and more blood on his hands, Sylar visits his mom.

It's going to be hard to top last weeks episode in my mind.

yeah tell me about it.... but then again..... i read the article of EW and they said the seasn finale was like a 90 million budget movie.... its big...

I was fishing around the NBC website (changing image URL's etc.) to try to find some not yet released pictures.

My patience was rewarded as I think I found some images that may be a major spoiler for the season finale, or , possibly the story arc for season two!

Now, maybe I will have some credibility in these Heroes threads!

.... i knew daddy cool had something to do with Sylar....

You googled a picture of a dumbell and a Kant just for that?

"I can hear you."

that was pretty funny.

hayden

good setup for the final episodes. guess it's back to back episodes next week.

what a nut job!

not sure if that should be spoilerized, but just in case.

Well, it's confirmed, Sylar eats their brain to gain their power.

okay how did sylar un-freeze time?

It's not a dumbell -- it's a weight!

And I also googled a picture of an exclamation point.

I don't think he did -- I think Hiro lost his concentration.

no doubt about it

not sure about that, but that was pretty wild. maybe because the sound was familar, he could do something?

edit: or as JasonF says, he might have lost his concentration. maybe because he doesn't really want to kill him yet.

I don't think he lost his concentration. We still saw the mother frozen. I think it's more likely that Sylar is somehow immune against hiro's freeze time trick.

I'm just waiting for Nathan to walk into a room with Linderman with Peter and Claire in tow with "I'm Not Ready To Make Nice" playing in the background.

Good ep!

I was tense as hell during this episode... They have really amped up the intensity and drama in this series and I love it! The only thing, I dont want Sylar to die. He is such a great villian that I want to see him around. He ranks with some of the best "bad guys" in entertainment history.

He does have a certain panache for "time," being a watch repairman.

Good episode. hard to follow last week, but a decent buildup for the final episodes. So Peter is painting the future now as well? When did he get Isaac's power?

Sylar drawing the mushroom cloud with his mom's blood was creepy as hell.

ok episode

"Can't Wait" (Kant + weight) and "Filler?" (Phil + ER?)

good ep tonight...set up the tension nicely. Actually felt sorry for Sylar for a minute.

I don't understand the scenes with Sylar's mom.

What are we supposed to take away from that? Sylar's mom made him crazy by telling him 'your special' all his life?

She's obviously a kook, why did he choose to show her his powers? I could have told you she would say he was cursed or possessed.

And look at him compared to his mother. You telling me he couldn't disarm his mom of those scissors safely? We had to have a "meet in the middle and someone gets stabbed anyway and you don't know who until they part" moment?

Bitch, please. I agree. Phil+ER.
