That she is pretty much a dork herself, she reads comics, has very "nerdy" taste in TV & movies, listens to indie-music, & is self-depricating, witty & funny in interviews.

And take it from me first hand, the girl's skin is flawless & lazy eye unnoticable in person (especially when compared to my fat-face full of imperfections) . . .

Does that mean there is another helping him that we don't know about yet? Perhaps the last woman in the picture?

It's not bad acting folks - she's playing a specific part with a specific intent. Don't confuse the character with the actress. And if it's irking you, then guess what, it's working. You're not meant to like her - at least at first.

i rewatched the second half of season 1 on mojo yesterday (didnt want to work around the house), and she certainly didnt do a very good job of persuading Claire to go to France, or Nathan to not help stop Peter.

Afterall, he's apparently out to take them all down - not just Hiro's dad.
