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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
who is Dr. Where?
Exactly.
Hee!
Heroes=awesome! I have to admit, there was some bounce and squee, and some tears at the scene between Claire and Mr. Bennett on the bridge. I really didn't want to like Claire, she's such an apparent cliche. But you can't help falling in love with her a little. She's such a valiant character.
sumi, you were correct, that was SPN's Samantha Ferris (Ellen) as a knuckle dragger on BSG. Gave me the same sort of whiplash as Marc Vann (CSI's Conrad Eckley) showing up on NCIS recently.

I'm wondering what part George Takai will play in all this.
Could there be a schism in The Company and The Hatian is working for him?
He has not had them bring in Hiro, perhaps he's not as ruthless as it appears.
Also, if Hiro is his natural son, does Mr Nakamura have powers? Does his daughter?
Hmm...
Apparently, the bridge is where Mr. Bennet does all his killings and so on. It's probably a very nostalgic place for him.
That cracked me up too, Theo -- That HRG brought Claire & the Haitian to the same bridge!
So how much do people think the Haitian is going to wipe?
a) the last seventeen years
b) a Claire-shaped hole in the last seventeen years
c) the knowledge that Claire has powers and Bennet's dealings with the Haitian and his safehouses, etc.
d) the details of the escape plan
Well, probably c & d.
And I guess that Eric Roberts (Can we call him the Master?) - is going to use Parkman to try to find out what Bennett knows.

Personally, I think it would be great if it were e) Let's lobotomize the dude.
"Bennet! Where's Claire?"
"Gabba? Doo go fuh muh lala? Poopy-pants!"
To be really safe, Haitian Guy needs to remove the fact that Bennet loves his daughter. Not just that she's got powers, or that he's ever had a stray thought of betraying Evil Eric Roberts -- all the evil around him is constantly reminding him, "Don't get close to that daughter."
Bennet's plan was pretty much required by the fact that Evil now owns Greg Grunberg. Because, when your partner can read your thoughts, there goes any option of of harboring secret misgivings of any kind.
Evil does not seem terribly tolerant of "Well I am just feeling cranky today! So there!!" I suspect that this corporate policy is what drives the low-cost nature of Evil's retirement package. Sadly, Evil does not provide much in the way of a comprehensive mental-health program, which, if I were Evil, and were having the kind of recruitment trouble I imagine Evil must have, I would be looking for Blue Cross bids post-hastey.
For one thing, imagine if Haitian Guy is their only brains-cleaner! Who is going to clean up Greg Grunberg's brains, next time he accidentally stumbles on his own file? Evil needs a whole array of brains-cleaners, preferably ones with no personality and no Yahoo emails via which Morally Gray may contact them.
One wonders if they have learned much after studying all the Supers Heroes.
