Evil!Matt is working with the hatian - and it's kind of hot. Is that wrong?

9:10
I weirdly like Niki and Peter together. And the scar *is* cool although I don't quite understand how he gets it.

9:13
Huh! Evil mindreading Matt again! Wheee. And is it the Dept of Backstory if it's backstory for this ep but futurestory from the current perspective?

Mmmm. President Nathan. Estranged from Peter, it seems? But is it Nathan or Sylar-as-Nathan?

Ew! Sucking oxygen out of the air!

9:20
Here's what I don't love about Nathan's genocide scheme and the barring of breeding - does he really think other countries would do or are doing the same thing? Seriously, Nathan, treating this like an arms race is much more sensible than killing people.

Awwww, Bennett. Helping other families and kids. Wheeeee.

Oh, Monhinder! Your brain! It's growing! You finally figured it out!

I love Claire with dark hair!

: ships Claire/Sam Winchester/Normal Life!

Hey, Claire is using her mom's name. Huh.

Oh, Peter. You are an amazing thing.
: watches that bit again during commercial

9:35
Matt and HRG still in cahoots. Sorta.

Or not.

Huh. I don't trust Claire's guy.

Oh, Ando. I knew it. Wah! But ando dying plunged Hiro into sadness and angst! OTP!OTP!

Oh thanks, Mohinder, for cutting the string and messing everything up.

I still don't think Nathan is Nathan. I don't *want* Nathan to be Nathan. I think he's Sylar. I really do.

Omg he is!

9:51

Save Hiro, save the world!

Mohinder, please inject Matt first. Or, rather, instead!

And is Nathan dead? Wah! Sylar probably killed him and ate his brain! I am so sad!

9:58
Oh! The hatian! Dead! Killing Matt is better.
Oooh. Did you hear how Mohinder said, "Peter"?

Oh God, Nathan with DL's powers.

Oh *this* is the fight. This is beautiful.

Poor dead Nathan!

Oh. OH!


Oh, show!

Is it possible that peter got the scar because the Hatian was around when he got cut - perhaps by Evil Sylar Pretending To Be Nathan - and his healing was blocked that way, long enough for the scar to develop?

And is Linderman is in cahoots with Morphing!Sylar back in the 5-years-ago time, and that's why he's setting Nathan up to take power, but he knows that he can take Nathan out any time he wants and replace him with evil morphing Sylar?

I would have coherent things to say about this awesome, awesome episode, but Peter is WAY too distracting for that. When he pulled the glass over and appeared out of nowhere I made a pretty embarrassing noise. Actually pretty much whenever he's on screen I lose my train of thought.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

He is too pretty and too hot and too amazing to be allowed. But omg he didn't know Nathan had been dead for years! And that Sylar was mind-fucking him all this time!

Wibble!

You know, I've watched 3 or 4 eps of Gilmore Girls the last two days, since they did the Milo-a-thon yesterday and it's all
Jess: Dean = big idiot
Dean: Jess = evil bookworm thug
Rory: stop it guys and go snog each other because it would be sooooo pretty
and I'm realising why I never liked that show in the first place and why I'm enjoying Heroes (and spn!) so damned much.

There's plot and story and action *and* hotness. Whee.

[trinity_clare]

I can't help but think Peter would have known it wasn't Nathan. Sam would have. But that didn't stop him from being HOT LIKE BURNING. And yes, I did notice how Mohinder said his name.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

He should have if he'd used Matt's mindreading powers, unless somehow Sylar!Nathan managed to avoid ever being in a room with him without the Hatian present?

[trinity_clare]

Oops, I used the wrong icon up there.

I honestly thought that Peter and Nathan hadn't seen each other that whole time. Peter would have had to hide out after the bomb, and probably recuperate too. I don't think the way he talked about Nathan necessarily meant they'd been together. ALTHOUGH I don't think Sylar got Nathan until after he'd been blamed for the bomb, since he seemed bitter about that.

*FLAILS* What an awesome episode! Eeee!

Wow, you totally called that Sylar-as-Nathan! I was too busy shouting at the tv to make the connection I guess

ships Claire/Sam Winchester/Normal Life!

Hee!

Future!Badass!Peter. *spontaneously combusts*

Mohinder finally growing a pair! \o/ Almost too late though, jeez.

It had been on my mind since last week when Sylar painted the picture that I thought was of himself in the White House, but he looks enough like nathan that it wasn't supposed to be obviously Sylar and not Nathan.

And I just didn't want Nathan to be acting like this horrible, evil thing.

New campaign slogan: Nathan Petrelli: He's Not Really Into Genocide!

[megaloo13.livejournal.com]

That future was so messed up yet so awesome. Peter was devestatingly hot, Ando is awesome because he is And Nathan!Sylar was unexpected from my viewing perspective. And THAT was the fight everyone thought we were getting last week and whoa with the cool.

Oh wow, I just realized that Nathan!Sylar and Mohinder were friends, which only makes the dynamic for those two even more effed up...

There should be thousands of fics where Morphing Sylar takes on different faces and personas - guys and girls - and mindfucks and seduces Mohinder.

There really should.

[megaloo13.livejournal.com]

Um, hell yes to that idea.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Your icon looks like my poll! Hee!

[megaloo13.livejournal.com]

Heh, I just wished I remembered to use it earlier.

By the way, I was reminded by a fellow viewer of this line: "You haven't slept in five years, Mohinder." So your mindfuck & seduction idea = totally valid. :D

[trinity_clare]

O.o

There really, really should.

...oh dear God, you WOULD have to put that idea in my head.

;)

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

I will happily take full responsibility for my ev0l actions!

(And, of course, if you were to write such a fic? I would squee.)

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

I can't believe how amazingly good this show is. SO GOOD.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

You're watching it again now, aren't you? :D

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

I WANT TO. ::shakes torrent to make it download faster::

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

When you do, listen carefully to all of Sylar!Nathan's lines. They're *amazing* for the setup for the reveal.

[ladylisse.livejournal.com]

Me/this episode OTP. And everyone is broody and Sylar's just going around offing Petrellis. D: And uh. Peter's little "you're dead" conversation with Ando asjdilasd ACK

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

He's totally collecting Petrellis.

Oh meep. Do you think Linderman is in cahoots with Morphing!Sylar and that's why he's setting Nathan up to take power, but he knows that he can take Nathan out any time he wants and replace him with evil morphing Sylar?

[ladylisse.livejournal.com]

Uh. I hadn't considered that until now, but I can't imagine that Linderman doesn't know something about Sylar, since he seems to be so involved in everything else. I'm wondering if Mohinder's dad tried to contact him too, because I don't think Chandra's program differentiated between normal people and mafiaesque scary Vegas dudes.

Is it possible that peter got the scar because the Hatian was around when he got cut - perhaps by Evil Sylar Pretending To Be Nathan - and his healing was blocked that way, long enough for the scar to develop?

My personal theory is that Peter deliberately kept the scar, out of guilt for destroying New York. It seems like such a Peter thing to do.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Oooh, I like that idea. He totally would, too, because he is a woobie.

[lunalovegoddess.livejournal.com]

I wish I had read this post before commenting on your later post. ^_^

I wondered about the scar, as well... I figured that maybe like Hiro temporarily losing control of his powers when Charlie was murdered, that Peter had not been able to heal himself out of angst and guilt.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Peter had not been able to heal himself out of angst and guilt.

Yeah, that totally works.

Oh, Peter. You are so angsty and woobie!

[lunalovegoddess.livejournal.com]

May I have permission to use your icon?
Holy shit; that was an incredible scene!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

I gacked it from lay_of_luthien this morning - she has a bunch more. You can totally use this one, but go take a peek and see if you like any of the others more?
