Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

(And sidebar, but what kind of a high school has an amphitheater like that? I just find it a little odd, but whatever.)

Everything's big in Texas.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Snerk. Not in Odessa, unless you count the water towers. It's a very cool set, though.

Well, I'm off to dream of pretty, pretty Mohinder. Do y'all think that his meeting with the little boy actually happened or was it all just part of his dream walking with the kid? At first, I thought it was real, but then when the same scene repeated between his colleague and Papa Suresh, I kind of figured that the whole thing was a dream. Maybe the little boy is young Papa Suresh reaching back from the great beyond.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

It's been posited. Also, if you think about it, Claire's the only one who could probably survive getting close to him. Thus, no Claire, no saving the world

I was referring to the painting he made tonight. It looked like a man on fire or made of fire or something. I think we've all agreed that nukeboy is the one who destroys New York, I was just speculating what Isaac's new painting meant.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Godferdamn. My TiVo copy was for crap, for some reason. Can someone give me the gist of: Claire's convo with her dad at the end, Pixie's convo with Sylar (who was recognisably the actor cast, if you know it's him), the six month earlier bit in the cafe, and the preview for next week (I did catch the tombstone which explains why ikiN has such a mundane name--it's not like she got to choose it)?

I'm glad that Peter didn't flip back the locker doors, somehow. I'm guessing he remembered the power thing during the second confrontation, but there were the previous reception issues, so I can't be sure.

Missed Jackie telling Claire to run. Hmm. Jackie sure deserved the punch at the time, and I agree it was cool how the perfectly in character point for them way back when bore fruit tonight.

I do remember thinking the pictures were a little cartoony, so how could you be sure who was who...but it never crossed my mind that the one pic was Jackie and not Claire.

That future wasn't changed right? Just the bits after Peter arrived, I assumed. I got a little shiver from seeing Mr. Bennett's shadow cast on the stairs just like one of those paintings.

In some strange way I like Nathan obscuring the painting. He's not nice, but like Mr. Bennett wrt to Claire, he has no intention of being selfish.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Pixie's convo with Sylar (who was recognisably the actor cast, if you know it's him)

Really? Is it who IMDb says it is?? Because I thought that was a rumor, and it didn't look like him to me.

Oh. I have no idea who that is. Thanks.

"Would you mind not farting while I'm saving the world?" - Doctor Who

I liked how Peter was able to heal himself because of his proximity to Claire. It was a nice change to see him interacting with someone else's powers and not have Hiro swoop in and save the day yet again. Don't get me wrong... I like Hiro, but using him too much would be overkill.

Nathan is a self-serving tool. No wonder Mrs. Petrelli told Peter he was always her favorite.

Do you think he was being self-serving about the picture?

He doesn't seem to understand, however, that his level of control of his brother is weak at best. Has he forgotten the breakfast table this soon?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

That was a lot of trouble to go to, to get the painting bought back from Linderman, get it shipped, and then deface it. But I guess Nathan had to see what was in the painting first. Given that it was his brother possibly dead and he could definitely keep Peter safe by keeping him away from Odessa, he made his choice. Simone had to consider the same choice before she showed the photoprint to Peter.
