Everything else wasn't bad. But I felt as if there was something missing...

And, I swear to God it said "the Kindness Of Stranges" on Yahoo! It wasn't a mistype on my part..

I don't find Micah's adult female cousin annoying, but I could sure live without her annoying kid and her annoying redhead coworker. I also have to admit I'm not sure we needed even the female cousin given the number of new characters. It's hardly an egregious problem to add one more to an already bloated cast, though. Clearly, not everybody is going to stick around.

I thought the episode was far and away the best of the season so far. I'm not high on Claire's story in that I don't see what she sees in the guy. It's the story that now feels like it has the least momentum.

Not if it's that she can learn stuff only by seeing it on TV...

I want that power so I can learn guitar.

How come Parkman didn't recognize "Bob" from the group photo Nathan gave him when Suresh showed him a pic of him and told Parkman that's who he's working for?

I don't know that it was Parkman failed to recognize him as much as Parkman being fixated on his dad.

I'm not sure if I remembering right, but wasn't there another woman standing next to Parkman's father?

Suresh didn't see the photo until Nathan had already seen it, so Parkman didn't know who Bob was then.

and the annoying kid is her kid brother, not her son. too bad she didn't learn some other cooler moves. perhaps the stone cold stunner?

Was that Dr. Crusher next to Parkman Sr in the photo? Maybe someone can post a screencap.

I hope someone posts a screencap. It appeared that they really didn't want us to have a good shot of Nathan's father.

I'm not sure if Monica is simply a motion mimic, or a power replicator.

Our girl Claire is lying to HRG, she's definitely growing up.

The odds of the Blunder Twins running into Sylar are probably astronomical, but at least Sylar gives their subplot both direction and menace.

Matt's dad being the boogeyman makes sense, a good development.

Nathan and Matt's bonding was awkwardly sad.

So why did Angela fake her injuries?

Got that impression as well. Wouldn't surprise me if he had the Haitian keep tabs on them.

What happened right after Molly saw the Boogeyman's door? My DVR cut out. Much appreciated.

She went into shock and could not be woken up. But Matt heard her screaming for help in her head.

Who could've guessed that the next Marvel character's power to be used would be the Taskmaster? Talk about digging deep.

So does Nathan now have the power of incredibly fast hair growth? He was clean shaven when he visited Parkman a couple eps back, but it was back when he saw his kids tonight, then gone again when he talked to Parkman.

Though it does make their storyline a little more interesting, it reminds me too much of the Mohinder/Sylar plot-line from Season 1. Maya/Alejandro have no idea who Sylar really is....but wait....what happens when they do!?!?!

I agree with all the posters who are bored with Claire's storyline. I thought Claire was always aware of what her father did with the Company (Ted/Matt taking her family hostage, constantly running, mother losing her memory, etc.), so I'm still figuring out why she's surprised. Did the Haitian erase ALL of her memory?

Parkman being connected to the 12 by his father has me interested. I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes.

More characters? jesus they don't even know what to do with the characters they have on the show.

Ohh and fucking gag me on the stupid ass Claire storyline.

This show is a mess.

Very very disappointed.
