'Safe'
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.
Aaaaw, Sophia -- you could totally go to "our love is so very forbidden place!" for Peter/Claire!
(FWIW, there's even a psychological term for relatives separated from birth finding each other sexually/romantically irresistable, it's not just in drama that it crops up. Of course, I can't recall what it is at the moment....)
I love that show despite the weekly "handwaving". This week, for me, it was Mohinder's binding Batman to a chair and then telling him all the plans to kill him...later...
WHY, upon discovering that your murderous captive is unsedated and capable of telekinetically stopping bullets, would you not overload his super-hearing to break his concentration and shoot again? After that first bullet dropped to the floor I'd have been screaming loud enough to make Marlee Matlin pound on her ceiling with a broomstick.
(I would laugh and laugh and laugh if she ended up being shot... through a wormhole... and ended up on Earth.)
What if she were to be shot through a wormhole and ended up on Moya?

Huh. I thought the tuning-fork-torture was wicked cool, and yet I completely forgot his hearing was a weakness. Granted I was only sitting on my couch and not actually face-to-face with a telekenetic sociopath, but I'm giving Mohinder a little pass for being freaked out about the magic bullet.

Hee!
I assumed that thet tuning fork only worked because the curare kept Sylar from being able to dial down the super hearing to manageable levels now that he's had a few days to get used to it. But trying some sort of noise would have been smart.

Still cool, but less ironic. (I figure the rag-tag fleet's already IN the Uncharted Territories, after all the emergency jumps they've done running from the Cylons.)
Hmm, why wouldn't the gunshot have the same effect on his hearing that the tuning fork did?
Perhaps Mohinder should have picked up a dog whistle.
Can either of the telepaths project thoughts as well as read them? Having "Wake Me up before You Go-Go" suddenly pop into your head while trying to psychokinetically restrain someone would have to be frustrating...

I love that song. It would cause me to psychokinetically shake someone back and forth until their brains rattled and possibly spin them upside-down. But that's just me. If I were psychokinetic. Instead of merely psycho.
Ooh, the power to cause people to have ear-worms -- what a particularly evil power.
