Wait, Santiago Tyler? What/who was that? And if you squish it, it's "S-yler".
OOOOH. I think you've got it. Santiago was the boy with the soccer ball in Mohinder's dream, wasn't he? It was his photo that was in the file. Do you think Mohinder's sister (who was "special") was perhaps Syler's first kill, and that's what started Professor Suresh on his obsessive path?
I'm not sure if Mohinder's sister would have been the first kill, but he does seem to be reaching out to Mohinder, possibly even trying to get Mohinder to stop him. Which is actually typical serial-killer behavior.
the name is actually "SANJOG, Iyer" on the file folder that Mohinder finds.

That's the name I saw, too.
So, Pixie's power is that she can wrap men around her little finger?
Also, I was a bit confused by Matt's retelling of his origin story. He seemed like he was agreeing with Radioactive Man's story that the powers didn't appear until after they were taken by MBG, but Matt already had his powers before he was taken, right?
I was confused by that, too. We saw Matt "hear" that little girl's thoughts in Sylar's victims house before he ever got snatched by BGM and the Haitian.
Damn, that was good show. What was on those clippings that Mohinder found about SANJOG, Iyer? Something about continuing to learn in dreams? I guess I will have to watch it again.
And I love Mohinder, even if his story has been kinda slow up to this point. So. much. pretty.
Well, I wasn't sure -- but I was sure that it would be Syler.
What I don't get about Pixie Girl is why she couldn't use her power to loosen Isaac's inhibitions about doing those pre-cog paintings w/o using drugs. I mean, wouldn't that be more direct?
I just don't get what her power is . . . just really persuasive or is it some kind of mind control? And why didn't Isaac just give up Peter when BGM was trying to persuade him to go back on the smack? For all Isaac knows, those folks have been nothing but nice to him, helped him get clean, promised to help him learn how to tap into his powers without drugs. Why didn't he just say, "Hey, I know another way that we can do this. There's this guy. Very pretty, really annoying hair."
I cannot wait for next week.
Evil Pixie = The Pusher.
Isaac strikes me as talented, but kind of dumb. Also, Senor Contrivance dictates that Isaac not mention Peter until next week.
Maybe Isaac didn't mention Peter because he still doesn't entirely trust the mysterious benefactors, and he didn't want to put Peter in a dangerous sitch.
Maybe he's just brainfuzzled from coming off the smack.

OMGWTF FAIRIES BBQ
Seriously, there was something off about this ep. I'm not loving anyone in it except for Jack. And there were times when he didn't feel right. I loved that he did what he could to keep the vow he made with Estelle. I love that we are given glimpses into his backstory. And I love the idea that he has lived through a fair bit of time. Wouldn't it be great to know when and how he hitched a ride back in time from post Game Station Earth?
