She sort of reminds me a little of Carla Gugino.

I love how in movies whenever someone hits an electrical lock with a jolt of electricity it magically opens it instead of just frying it shut

No, Ando's power initially was supercharging other people's abilities. He used it on the chick who could run really fast and a few other people. Then it seemed to be an electrical attack for a while. Now it seems to be using electricity in whatever way is handiest for plot development.

ed at both of those scenes. Something they might screwup had the show been Live, but taped and not caught? WTF? The line could have even been dubbed if they wanted!

Ando's supercharge power was so cool, they just dropped it. If I'm not mistaken didn't we see future Ando use it as a weapon first?
His hands sparking red when Hiro opened the closet door was pretty funny.

Peter could call the deaf woman using VRS if she has a videphone, although being hard-of-hearing it isn't unlikely that she is able to use a normal phone as well.
Ah, who the fuck am I kidding? Chalk it up to another blunder on the part of the Heroes writing staff.

Ando should be on the top of carnival guy's list. One Ando could boost his power much more then a few specials.

And the deaf girl seems to have a power with limitless range. It made some sense that she could draw certain people to her, who were in earshot of her music. But she can apparently make anyone come to her from anywhere in the world just by thinking of them or their picture. That's better than the little girl's power in season 1.

Sorry for the bump but I'm playing catch up. I miss Ando's 'amp' power as well. The lightning was just a convenient plot device.
That was so laugh out loud bad. He has super strength, rips a locked cell door off it's hinges but struggles to get a 100lb Japanese guy into a wheel chair? 
I guess stupidity still reigns supreme on this show. Peter, oh Peter, if you're going to demolish a deaf chick's cello (especially if you want to get into her pants) buy her a nicer one on the way over.
Parkman, also moronic. If he didn't want HRG finding him, wants to live a normal life or simply wants to be over this hero mess, all he has to do is force a thought on Noah that Parkman never existed.
