"Somebody flies. Somebody dies."
Oh man, this one was so suspenseful! I kept waiting for someone to die. First I thought it was Claire's mom. Then I thought it would be Ando. Then I thought it would be the mechanic with super hearing. Well, it was obviously the mechanic, but she didn't mean anything to us. It was Simone. She was kind of blah anyway. I'm glad it wasn't one of the actual heroes.
Now that they showed Wireless and Radioactive Man together, the online graphic novel of them working together makes a lot more sense. I'd heard about Wireless before and seen the novel.
Is it just me, or is HRG getting creepier? It made my skin crawl when he called his daughter "Claire Bear."
I notice that they not only show the Nissan Versa in every episode, but they seem to get the name "Versa" in, as well. I guess that product placement deal is through, but Nissan does advertise on the graphic novel pages.
Wow, Peter's really gotten it together. Watching him use all of his powers is really amazing. I'm psyched for Peter and Sylar to go up against each other. That will be an incredible fight!
Next week is the HRG origin episode. It should be really cool. I want to see a lot more Peter! The best part was when he turned invisible, and he started to disappear from the edges in. Cool, fun effect.

Wow. I came into this episode just like any other episode "I want to see Claire and Niki/Jessica". Boy did we get the Claire! Her reaction to her father was great, the fight in the hospital. I am so glad Claire is being so open now and that she is willing to risk EVERYTHING for her mother. The Claire story line is far the best of the series and though I wish she was in her cheerleader outfit more Internet Chic, now that is a power! I havn't been reading the online stuff, so the scene at the begining before the previously was a nice touch, and I think her powers are too cool. That is going to be a nice story, I like how all the characters are begining to kind of intertwin. The Sylar thing... Well if whats his name dosn't catch on quick then its going to be an annoying story. I liked the super hearing girl and her rap music and I knew she was going to die, and I kind of wish she didn't. I felt really bad when he melted her wrench. Hiro... That fight between Hope and the dude was great and I loved how we don't actually get to see it, just made it all too funny! I think of Hiro as the Batman, Ando as Robin and Charlie as the Batgirl (ill fated batgirl...) and now that Hiro is all alone I don't know what to think. I thought Ando was going t die, I really did. I know alot of people were thinking that and I thought Hope was going to shoot him but nope... Simone's death was a shock. I think her death will be very similar to Tara's and really pit Peter and Art-Dude against each other (which will lead to the Art-Dudes death that we saw in the first couple of episodes). Peter is WAY to powerful and his and Sylar's grand battle will be sweet, but I don't think Super Peter can live past season 1, there is just this Superman complex that will make his character too strong and annoying. Next week looks very cool. The origin of Claire! Hopefully some more Niki/Jessica fun^^

Wow, Great Episode tonite!! It was one of those like Homecoming, where you are in suspense the whole time! I will be saving this one on the dvr for a while and probably next week's too.
I felt so bad for Claire and Claire's Mom. I really thought Mr. B was a good guy at some point and now that is completely gone. I agree, Maria. Mr. B is creepy and his whole company is creepy. Ted, Satellite girl, and Invisible man made me so curious about the company and what they are really doing to the "unlucky" heroes.
LOL, that Ando and Hiro scene was crazy. It was kind of too cartoony with the bullets and punches flying.
Peter was amazing! The whole time!! I loved when he first blocked the invisible man's attacks and started to figure out about sylar's powers. It was cool when he went invisible in front of Isaac. It does sound like all the power has gone to his head though and I hope that nothing bad happens to Peter.
The ending was the best part! Mr. B was so surprised from Matt and Ted. It looks like Claire will get the chance to grill her "dad" on all his secrets about her. I'm worried about Matt. He's being very reckless. Stealing the diamonds(which it seems like he didn't even have a good plan of what to do with them once he got them) and now breaking into Mr. B's home. He has to know he can't just do that and go home like nothing happened.
Oh and about Simone dying. I was really shocked too! I was thinking, Hey, she's not a hero! They said a hero was going to die but it was still sad. It didn't really have to come to that(Peter could have taken his gun away easily) and I wonder if they will let it stand or if Peter will try to fix it. (think about Hiro and change it)

lol, I forgot to add how hilarious it was, after Sylar took the mechanic's powers! I was thinking, Ah ha because his head was hurting from all the sounds. I was hoping Mohinder would remember what she had said about her powers and catch on.

I know! I'm so scared for Mohinder, but as long as he's that clueless, he'll be fine.
Gosh, Sylar sure is good at impersonating a real human with feelings and compassion.
I'm sad that Ando is gone. Hiro was so cute when he got on the bus, so sad to be alone. I hope he hooks up with the other heroes soon. I'm sure glad Ando didn't die.

Awesome episode! I really like Peter so seeing him use his powers this way was absolutely amazing! Just like Maria, I can hardly wait for a Peter Vs Sylar scene! ;D
Clair was also amazing, and I can't wait to see how the whole "hostages" situation develops. Though I'm really sorry for her mom.
And Simon dying, I didn't see that coming though when Peter was fighting with Issac I was almost sure he would be the one to kill Issac since he has Sylar powers and it could've been a hell of a twist if the dead Issac Hiro found in the future was killed by Peter and not by Sylar.

Oh Lior, what a cool idea! That would have been truly shocking! Maybe you should help write this show.

I feel bad for the actor that played the gaming commision cop. After all these years, all I could think of is, "Dobber is supposed to be dumber and nicer."
I'm hoping Ando will pop back in at the right time to show Hiro that he still needs his sidekick. Those two just played off each other so well.
I can't remember. were the little radioactive tracker scars ever discussed before this episode?

This episode Rocked! I loved seeing Peter coming into and using his powers. I wasn't to bothered seeing Simone dying, for me anyway, she was expendable and her death will create great tension between Peter and Isaac. I really liked seeing Claire standing up to Mr Bennet and I felt real sorry for Claires Mom. I have a strong feeling that we haven't seen the last of Ando, I believe that he will follow Hiro and show up later; like others have mentioned a hero can not be without his sidekick for very long And... How many of you noticed Marvel Comic Book Creator Stan Lee's cameo as the Bus driver This episode was packed full of surprises and had me sitting on the edge of my seat the whole show. I can not wait till next week...I am soaddicted to Heroes!

That was Stan Lee? How cool is that? The way they set up the shot for Hiro to get onto the bus, I expected it to be someone surprising driving the bus, but then I didn't recognize the guy. Thanks for letting us know who is was. That is very awesome.

Yep, I noticed Stan Lee. I thought he only did cameos in his comics turn movies so that was a cool surprise. Is Stan Lee working with the comic of heroes?

It was so Superman like, with the city in the background. "Somebody flies. Somebody dies." Boy they weren't kidding. I loved the bit where Peter threw the invisible man off the building and Bennet said, "What are you doing?" Then Peter responded, "Something unexpected" and jumped off the building himself. I was glad to see that Peter had caught Invisible Man and was carrying him while flying. I mean, Peter's a pretty wimpy, little wisp of a guy. He can't be more than 5'6" or so.
