I love that show despite the weekly "handwaving".
You've obviously been hanging around too many genius characters...
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Only question would be if Sylar takes his brain, can he regrow it
I'm guessing probably not. The power seems to reside in the brains, so no brain, no power. Also, when Claire was killed, she didn't start to heal until after the root was removed from her skull (and presumably her brain).

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Raise your hand if you want to see a Mama Petrelli/Linderman smackdown!
I'd be fine with that, but I'm more looking forward to the inevitable Mama Petrelli/HRG smackdown.

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.
I'm in the Isaac painted himself camp. The pictures seem identical to what we saw when Hiro found dead Isaac in the future.
I thought it was of Mohinder's apartment, based mostly on the gun.
There was a gun on the floor near Isaac in the future. Hiro picks it up right before the police rush in.
Re: Linderman, I'm wondering if his specific mention of Nathan ending up in the White House in two years was because he has some sort of precognition of his own, or there's an Isaac painting (or paintings) we haven't seen yet that Linderman has in his collection. The way Linderman was talking it felt more like a "this will happen" rather than a "there are plans in motion" sort of thing.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
You know, thinking about it, putting Nathan in the White House after only 2 years of national experience -- either this is a great big Obama joke, or else Nathan is being tempted with the possibility of emulating... Gerald Ford.
Not my idea of the biggest carrot in the world, you know?
All throughout the Nathan/Linderman confrontation, I was thinking two things: (1) that kitchen is so very tidy; spraying it with blood would be a waste of some very nice fresh vegetables. (2) You know, when you are inside a gigantic concrete building, possibly even in the basement, being able to fly like a bottle rocket is not much of a superpower.

Any bets on whether Linderman is Nathan and/or Peter's real father?

'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"
I just want to know which one of the characters is a hidden Cylon... oh wait, wrong show.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
My reaction to Malcolm McDowell is "Ugh," so I'm not enthused about Linderman. Maybe once we learn something about him beyond "likes pot pie."
ANDO!
MRS. BENNET!
NOT!MRS. BENNET!
OH NOES MOHINDER ON THE CEILING!

Oh, right, BSG. I still don't believe she's dead, and if she's not dead, then Moore's podcast seems kind of like shitty thing to do. And if she is dead, then it was a shitty way to go about it. Not amused.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
or there's an Isaac painting (or paintings) we haven't seen yet that Linderman has in his collection.
Oh, I like that!
Little Alex all grown up and chopping vegetables for a pot pie. Such a lovely picture (although cream sauce does not sound appealing in that setting - I'm a brown gravy girl all the way). Interesting that he cited making people happy as his reason for liking to cook. Seems like it ought to mean something sinister.
It didn't occur to me that Isaac's latest painting was anyone but himself until I came in here. That said, that wasn't exactly a recognisable face.
Ando's reappearance was just beautiful, and Hiro taking him with him was perfect. Hiro's experience with Charlie seems to imply that the explosion is going to happen no matter what, since Hiro has seen it. OTOH, he also thought he'd lost his power, and we know that isn't so.
It just occured to me - that stick in Claire's head must have damaged her brain, and she's fine now, so she (and tehrefore Peter) can regenerate some brain, at least. Oh, dear, that opens up a terrible Prometheus' liver sort of possibility. Ick. Wish I hadn't thought of that.
Oh, good lord, now I'm seeing Mama Petrelli as a Bene Gesserit prtototype and Peter as her Kwisatch Hadderach, though she thinks that it's Claire...
6 weeks for me to chase my own tail like this? Yikes.
