But now he must get a name. It's crazy! Even HRG has a name. Maybe it's something horrible like Urkel or Devontay and that's why no one uses it.

I gave up trying to remember everyone's individual timelines and who knows whom in which. It makes my brain hurt. And eventually one of you does a recap, so...

Yeah, still pissy about the white Kensei storyline.

Mohinder was totally hoyay this ep, but agree that I'd rather see an actually gay character. (I miss you, gay Zach!)

However, if I were Matt's actual child, I would be a little miffed that my dad was off daddying some random kid.

It is Wrong to bring Uhura on the show after Sulu is dead, I tell you what. I had better get some flashbacks, or I am going to...grumble mightily.

Poor Hiro, wanting to come back and see his dad. And he doesn't know his dad is dead.

I would buy Evil!Peter as the killer of the 8.

And I think it's interesting that both Peter & Sylar got a powers reset. Just about had to, I guess.

the white Kensei storyline

I think this might be so it can turn out that Kensei and (I forget the ingenue's name) are the ancestors of all modern heroes.

Yeah, pretty much nothing that would be a payoff big enough for me to stop being pissy about it. I'm not sold on the ingenue, either.

and yeah the twins have been reminding me of what I didn't like about Xfiles since they first appeared

My computer ate my post.....argh!!

Things I liked: Molly and her Daddies and Candace showing Sylar himself (and wishing it was Mohinder). Oh, and new Peter is still hot. I like how Peter has powers but no memory and Sylar has memory but no powers.

Things that were boring: the twins and Niki, alhtough Uhura was cool.

Things that seemed dumb: Candace showing off her powers for Sylar, Sylar killing Candace before checking to see where he was, Mr. Bennet sending Claire to a school where he had previously kidnapped a kid. I'm hoping these turn out to be more than meets the eye.

I liked the mention last season that she's really overweight, but to finally see her real body only when she's lying facedown, sprawled and bloody on the floor, just did not work for me. It bothered me that we couldn't see her face, and it bothered me that seeing her overweight body felt like it was supposed to be a final indignity.

Yeah, definitely. Especially after she was like "let me fulfill all of your racist and misogynistic fantasies, because that's totally the best use of my powers!" The whole thing was really ugly, and I was disappointed in the show.

However, if I were Matt's actual child, I would be a little miffed that my dad was off daddying some random kid.

I'm halfway assuming that the child actually turned out not to be his, but the product of the affair Janice had.

Wonder what they'll do next week?

The same thing they do every week, Pinky...

Maybe D.L. can inhabit Niki's body too, just as Jessica did/does??

Oh, that would be pretty cool, if her power is to absorb dead loved ones. (And...combine their strength with her own? Or something? I suppose the superstrength could be unrelated, but her powers have never really made any sense to me.)

Although I guess that doesn't square with Niki going to see the Company to be cured.

I thought she was there to be cured of the virus, not her powers.

It bothered me that we couldn't see her face, and it bothered me that seeing her overweight body felt like it was supposed to be a final indignity.

Yes, very much this.

Mr. Bennet sending Claire to a school where he had previously kidnapped a kid.

Didn't West say that they were living in St. Louis when he was taken?

It bothered me that we couldn't see her face, and it bothered me that seeing her overweight body felt like it was supposed to be a final indignity.

Word.
