What's cool is that if you miss an episode go to NBC.com and you can watch it online, and at close to -20 mins of time!

is that because of the lack of commericals or because they knock some time off.

I watch it on BBC2 which has no commercials

Good old Heroes, what a way to follow up the death of their Star Trek Connection in George Takei, they come back this week by adding another in today's episode, Nichelle Nichols.

She is apparently Micah's grandma or some such thing. For those who are scratching their heads she was Uhura in Star Trek.

Well now we have a possible candidate to be the NIGHTMAREMAN! (I still think it's BOB killing off the old heroes)

But does anyone else honestly think it's matt's dad?

To be overly technical, she was Lieutenant Uhura, and in the star trek movies was promoted to commander.... I want her, George and the shat to live forever.

I personally dont know that I buy into the idea that Matt's dad is the killer... It just seems too convenient. I think hes trying to scare the girl because he knows she can find out where he is, and he just doesnt want to be found... Maybe because he knows someone is killing off those 12 old timer heroes?

I am wondering if it isn't Peter who is killing them. I wonder if he is being controlled somehow and that is why he can't remember things. He got that tattoo on his arm which had the symbol that is showing up in every episode, so there must be some connection.

Man, if Claire's dad bites the bullet I am going to be upset. I like the guy and would hate to see him gone.

Do you guys think that the flying boy has more to him than meets the eye?

[grievous]

I like malform's theory on Matt's dad. Mr. Parkman just doesn't want to be found and considering that Molly can find him and probably was told to at least once by the Company (her wording when she freaked out at the picture was like she'd tried to find him before). Mr. Parkman is in hiding for some reason or another, most likely to try and stay away from the Hero Killer.

As for the killer being Bob, I kinda doubt it. The Hero Killer, as seen taking out Hiro's dad, has a pretty average build and is a bit lanky. Bob is a bit on the girthy side to have been the person in the hoodie.

Peter is an interesting choice but there hasn't been any showing of "sleepwalking" by him so I kinda doubt it.

An interesting theory I've come up with is that ol' Peter had a run-in with the Haitian, perhaps as a final request to the Haitian by Mrs. Petrelli. Reasonings? Only one Hero has been seen who can wipe memories, said Hero used to have a gold necklace with the Godsend symbol but no longer has it, Peter now has a gold Godsend necklace.

Flyboy is totally up to something. Not sure what, though.

And they had better not kill Mr. Bennet. HRG kicks so much ass that it isn't even funny. I've even figured out a way to "beat the painting". Stop wearing glasses and switch to contacts. The painting clearly showed him dying with glasses on so if he stops wearing glasses, he should change the future enough that that specific death won't happen. Perhaps a different one but not that one...

OK, so Matt's dad doesn't want to be found by Molly, because..........Molly is the killer! It makes so much sense now! But no, it's probably Bob. HE works for the company, wants to find Heroes...it makes sense.

We didn't see Peter at all last episode, so I'm hoping for a Peter heavy episode this week. Peter is cool.

Exactly why I left the rank off it was different at different times

The whole photo controversy if funny again stealing with both hands from Alan Moore's the Watchmen. I doubt Daddy is the killer, but I'm sure we're all meant to think so. We'll see I guess.

I too hope he beats the painting, but not with contacts, you gottta keep the glasses

[grievous]

Yeah, Bennet should definitely hold onto the glasses. They're incredibly cool. Perhaps ban Claire from wearing skirts/dresses and also he could not wear any shirts with a checkerboard-ish pattern on them. Seems simple enough to me.

We've already seen that the paintings CAN be defeated (See: Explosion in New York), I just hope Bennet can beat this one.

Yeah, the glasses rock. Horn rimmed. ;D


As for the future. I don't know if they really changed it or not. Maybe it's not to happen yet. Remember when (the painter, I can't recall his name) died, he said he tried and tried to change the future of his death, but found it inevitable. So who knows, maybe some explosion is still inevitable.

What about the blond Jekyll and Hyde girl? Do you think she could be the one killing the Heroes? She was an assassin in the past. Or what about Peters brother? He does fly, he could have pushed him off the edge of the building and just flown away.

Nobody has posted anything about the black chick who can do anything she sees. Man is she awesome or what?! I loved it when she swung around on the pole and hit that guy. She is great, I want to see more of her.


BTW, Grievous, how dare you say Claire should stop wearing skirts.
Funny thing is, I thought about contacts as well. It clearly shows a bullet going through them into his head. So it makes some sense.

Did you guys notice that Peter is painting with white eyes in the next episode? We might get a hint of something that is to come.

[bobafetch0007]

Well everyone agrees that West is up to something,but nobody has yet to blame him for the killings! Maybe he works for the company! I havn't seen his mother or father yet, and he never talks of them. He is very mysterious, and is really into Claire, maybe the company tracked Claire's family, and then sent West to do the dirty work! Nobody would ever expect him to kill the old Heroes, and since he has a power he is the only one around that can "relate" to Claire.

He would fit the descritpion really well. I know it sounds like a long shot, but this show is full of surprises!

This would alter the future, yes, but only to the point of what they are wearing in the picture. HRG still is killed, he just isn't wearing glasses when he is.

Even though we shouldn't worry. He is physically incapable of dying. He is HRG. He's too cool to die.


The Maya y Alejandro storyline just got 10 times more interesting to me with the introduction of Sylar, excuse me, Gabriel Grey, there. I'm really interested where they go with this. Sylar getting either of their abilities could allow for a very interesting twist on the whole deal. Sylar with Maya's black death = well, black death. Sylar with Alejandro's control of the power forces Maya to depend on him. Or, Sylar with both of the powers allows him to use Maya's power, but with control over it. Sounds cool.

Also, Grievous's theory about Peter's memory loss sounds extremely plausible. Haitan losing his necklace, Peter having an identical one, Peter with memory loss - it all makes sense. Why Haitan would want to erase Peter's memory is beyond me. We'll see.

I would agree that if he would ban Claire from wearing skirts/dresses to try and "beat the painting" he would still end up dead.

But I do think that switching to contacts would be a way of beating it. The idea is all based on the flying kid being his killer though... Due to the fact that he keeps repeating "the guy with the horn rim glasses", switching to contacts may just be enough to make the flying kid not recognize him.



Which made me think of something odd.... HRG would abduct "special" people and do whatever to them. Then would have the memory crashing haitian go and clear their brains of the whole thing... Why wouldnt the haitian go back far enough in their memory so that these abducties wouldnt recognize HRG or himself?.....

Ahh... Dont forget that at least for now Sylar seems to be unable to take powers from others.... And it looks as though he hasnt retained any of the previously obtained powers. I think this is why he is using his real (un-super) name again rather than Sylar.

[bobafetch0007]

I just remebered that "the Company" did abduct West, and are tracking him, which makes my theory of him even more convincing, especially after they made Matt work for them in the 1st season.

I really think West is the hitman for the company, but I really need to rewind to the picture with all the old Heroes in it. (You might want to become familiar with..complection just in case we see the killer anytime soon)

Oh, right. How did I forget that. Well, I'm still looking forward to see what Sylar does. But, of course, who isn't?
