What is it with Jo and Zoe and Claire? Why the jackhole bf's? I hope we find out that West is no good, if only because it makes his hazing of Claire in-character, and not the writer's trying to be all ambiguous when he's really a great guy (like the direction for 24, where all the actor's are told to look at each other like they either want to kill or f*** each other until the writer's finally pick which).

I hope Candice isn't dead, if only because I can't believe she'd be that stupid. Otherwise, I hate her so much that I was rather glad to see her get it.

The final exchange between Claire and Noah was just chilling, I loved it! "Hey, Claire." "Dad."

Peter shouting "Sparks! Lightning!" was just hysterical. And then hot, because sans shirt. Which, on one hand "Why?" and on the other "I don't care, just keep doing it".

Peter shouting "Sparks! Lightning!" was just hysterical.

It was, but it also reminded me of the "Go, web!" scene from Spider-man, though it was probably intentional.

Cool tidbits I got from Flist:

Peter's disappearing Godsend tattoo on his arm may mean that he's picked up Jessica's power of... uhm, evil twinning. I'm gonna wildly speculate here and put my money on evil!Peter (or evil-twin!Peter) being the one picking off the elders one by one. God knows the dude has enough powers (including time-travel, flying and invisibility) to pull it off.

The car the American prisoner (the one who fled with the oily-eyed wondertwins) had was not only a Nissan Rogue, but it's CLAIRE's stolen Nissan Rogue. The "conquistadors" are apparently Claire's school's mascot.

Yeah I thought hoodie-guy moved like Peter.

AHA! Fucking awesome. Oh, show. It's looking to be back on, finally. I was yelling at my screen a couple times.

kat you are on FIRE tonight woman! Seriously, your posts just made my day. SuhNERK.

Vonnie, DH noticed the car too. So is it just coincidence? Probably not, but I can't be arsed to think it through.

Interesting idea, but I thought the deal with Nikki was that Jessica was her sister, not just an alterego. And since Sylar is still alive, it's not like Peter could have absorbed his identity, so who would be the evil twin in that scenario? Jessica?

Don't think evil twinning was Nikki's power -- just super strength. She seems to be integrated or at least heading that way.

You know Claire does not bother me as much as Jo. She is in high school, and until recently a bit spoiled and protected -- not to the point of being mean, but certainly to the point of being naive. I can totally see her falling for a good looking jerk. In fact, until he tried to rape her, she was dating a jerk jock. It is not that surprising that lonely isolated on-the-run Claire is falling for a guy like this, at least a little - especially since she can be herself with him, since he knows her secret. Hopefully she will see him through him in time, and he won't turn out to be "the one". (Though it would be OK if he turned out be an ally; plenty of jerks on both sides of all battles. No reason a nasty jerk can't still end up on the good guys side. When you consider how fundamentally vicious the adapted father she loves is, it is no wonder part of Claire sometimes is attracted to sadistic jerks.)

Oh! I noticed the Conquistadors sticker and figured that it meant the guy was from Claire's highschool, but I didn't twig to the lovely plot coinkidink that it was her car! Setting us up for some future interactions (what do you think? Is Claire going to turn out to be immune to Maya?)!

West being traumatized by the Company would explain some of the jerk-hood, anyway. He might grow out of it, provided he survives the plot....

Maybe one of the virus' symptoms is horrible taste in men?

OTOH, maybe HRG will be so mad about Claire sneaking around behind his bad that he'll have the boy killed. That would be okay.

My main issue with the Mohinder-undercover storyline is that it requires me to believe he's able to only act that naive and gullible.

Also, Matt? You can read minds. There's really no excuse for you accidentally pulling a gun on someone you freaking live with.

I totally missed that that was Claire's car! Hopefully that means converging plotlines soon!

Anyone else really hoping that ALL of the 1st-gen heroes are ST:TOS cast members?

This ep needed more Petrellis. Can't Peter go be hot and confused back in NYC with Nathan and Mama?
