I haven't been anywhere but here lately, so I missed the discussion. We've only seen him walk on air the once, and he hasn't been around anyone else other than Isaac, and being with Isaac didn't give him any unusual flashes of insight, so there just wasn't much in the way of clues.

Peter said last night that he'd flown with Nathan twice, and that he'd drawn the future once after meeting Isaac. I know we didn't see the first flight; we just heard about it from Nathan afterwards (I wondered at that point if Nathan might have been lying to make Peter feel better). We didn't see the other flying scene or the drawing of the future, did we? Cut scenes from the pilot, perhaps?

He drew the rooftop scene while in the hospital. I didn't really pick up on the significance of that at first.

OK, I'd forgotten that part.

Claire's eyes were doing the cloudy thing when she was "dead".

I have a BSG question! From the TWoP recap:

the deposed president has been living off [Sharon & Helo's] baby's blood ever since like some fracked-up vampire"

??? Do we know that's happening? I know they used the hybrid baby blood to cure Laura's cancer but is she still..er..taking it??? I don't remember that at all.

I know they used the hybrid baby blood to cure Laura's cancer but is she still..er..taking it???

I think that's meant in the sense that she's living due to the hybrid baby--that she has a life at all because of the hybrid baby. Not that she's continually doing so.

That was the rooftop scene.

Ah. I missed that.

yeah, but the thing that takes time is the practice. If he seems to pick up everything perfectly the first time he tries it, he won't have any problem finding teachers.

I suppose. But it's really easy to practice wrong, especially when you're first starting. So he would have to be very careful. I took a 12 week class, practiced on my own, and then when I took the same class a year later realized I'd been doing some things wrong and it's taking me forever to break those bad habits. Granted, Hiro doesn't have to take quite so long between lessons but it's not as simple as "Go to class for a week, practice for a month outside of time, go to class for a week, practice for a month outside time, etc."

On the other hand, since he's not likely to get in a sword fight, just learning how to cut properly without damaging the sword or lopping his foot off might be all he really needs.

The Claire in the "Graphic Novel" seems a lot more interesting than the character in the TV show.

Hiro doesn't need a teacher outside linear time. He can spend five years practicing sword fighting and English and then jump right back to 2006 and keep going.

Colin's costars are Lara Flynn Boyle and Mark-Paul Gosselaar.

Now I'll be able to evaluate the MPG CF resemblance nice and close.

The ever since and the vampire statement sure make it seem like the writer is describing a continuous process.

Really? I just read it, and I got pretty much the same vibe. But then, I like Claire. I love that she has such a keen grasp of her situation, and that she obviously has a lot of conflict between being fascinated by it and aware that it makes her "a freak or a lab rat."

Claire's eyes were doing the cloudy thing when she was "dead".

That's not unnatural when someone is dead.

If the eyes remain open after death, a thin film forms on the surface. The potassium content from the breakdown of red blood cells enters the eyes and within two to three hours, they look cloudy.

I think that her dead cloudy eyes were different than Isaac's blind cloudy eyes.
