It's the boyfriend that changes.

Harry calls out the girl's name, which is when the FBI chick turns around and slashes the werewolf's throat, but once the werewolf turns back it's the FBI's boyfriend.

I couldn't tell if Harry really thought it was the girl or was trying to trick the FBI chick.

I think I figured out the scalp/hair issue: it never meant a damned thing.

Really.

The two FBI agents needed to keep control over the murder investigations, so they connect all their victims and call it a serial and are able to keep all the local police away from discovering the truth. There was never a ritual involved at all.

Also, I watched it a second time round, and Harry most definitely, deliberately lied when he said "Heather, no!". It was like "Look, a zeppelin!"

Juliebird -- that makes sense.

I don't think that Harry knew that the boyfriend was a werewolf too -- did he?

he did, because when he chucked a silver stake at him, the guys hand burned and his eyes glowed yellow and he seemed pretty wigged, there was the whole bit where ?Bush? ripped open his short, tore off the bandage and revealed no wound, Harry throws a second stake at the FBI agent, either for good measure, or because "oh shit, werewolf!".

So I have Deal or no Deal on and they promise a preview thing in a few minutes for Heroes. My word this show is awful.

ok, nice preview. Now I can mute the tv.

Upon rewatch, I concur with the conclusions drawn above. Including the need for more Bob. I love Bob. Harry really ought to take him out more.

I guess it makes sense that Bob can't go too far from his skull. Seems it ought to be a longer "leash" but that cocker spaniel joke was funny.

Let's hope the show does well enough to get a bigger budget for CGI. Those were some awful werewolves. Scary, though, when Bob turned around with the werewolf head on at the murder scene and growled at Harry. I wasn't expecting that. That's a cool trick Bob does, with the shapeshifting.

Also, Harry was really hot. Did he have his hands off Heather for more than ten seconds, ever?

I also wonder if Heather the Werewolf will replace Susan the Vampire, but they have cast a Susan, so either Harry will have two girlfriends he might have to kill one day, or they're changing Susan's story. I've divorced the show almost entirely from the books in my head. It's easier that way.

edit because i is not s

I thought he thought it was the girl attacking the FBI wolf at the end, because of how he yelped "Stop!"

Huh. I just realized I haven't watched last week's Heroes yet.

This is the problem with being able to time-shift programming without even thinking about it. I don't think about watching the shows either. Still, so glad I finally broke down and got a DVR. Makes life much simpler. I'm all about simplifying.

The werewolves were indeed awful, but the show does rather well with the more subtle effects. Birds of a Feather really impressed me (bring the Ravens back!), and I can't remember anything bad about The Boone Identity. Methinks that if they don't have the budget to do awesome "Doctor Who Werewolf" effects, then they should stick to the lower tech and practical fx (like the Ravens). Let's hope they delay on introducing any ghouls or Denarians till after their budget has increased or the FX house has improved.
