I really hadn't expected to get a face or an identifaction of the Nightmare Man so soon!
Also, when I saw Monica peel that tomato rose, and realized that Micah was setting up the WWE to play, I realized that Monica was about to learn some awesome moves, and when she was closing up for the night, I
knew
she was going to get attacked/robbed, and still it was AWESOME. I love that a show can forshadow something, possibly rather obviously, and the fact that I figured it out and then actually getting to see it are both very enjoyable and awesome things. As opposed to "oh, boo, I could see that a mile away, boooring". This show makes the forshadowing out so much fun!
Oh, man! Matt's dad was an elder hero and that's how Mama Petrelli knew about him and knew that she needed to lock him out of her mind. Fun. I didn't like the leap that she just would've found out from the Company somehow.
I wonder what Matt's dad did to make him go on the run? Steal all of Bob's gold? He can just make more. Maybe his leaving Matt had nothing to do with his crime.
I wanna learn more about the elders' powers. Aside from Simone's dad, Linderman, and Bob, do we know what any of the rest of them can actually do? Did we ever find out what Kaito could do? I know we don't know Mama Petrelli's power. Did we know Papa Petrelli's? Do we know Matt's dad's power (other than being the Nightmare Man)? What gives? Enquiring minds want to know.
So, the Latino characters' storyline revolves around making it to America to escape a bad situation they got into through no fault of their own. And the black characters' storyline revolves around trying to escape from poverty.
.......
You know, I can see what they're
trying
to do. It's kind of like Joss' trick of making a fantastical metaphor out of a mundane problem. But somehow, they seem to be mixing the wrong elements of the real-world situation, and it comes out(for me at least) as kind of cliched.
Oh, well. We're starting to get some interesting interactions going, so maybe things will pick up.
And Monica's boss was Big Mike from
Chuck
! Hee.
Bob can turn stuff into gold, and is apparently the Elder 12's walking, talking source of funding.
I think Mama Petrelli has the power of persuasion like what's her face who shot herself in the head rather than be killed by Sylar in Season 1.
And now Bob seems to be running the Company.
I think Mama P is "confessing" so she'll be kept in a high security environment which would make her much less of an easy target - and highly investigated if she is killed.
I bet she's a good chess player.
Also, I'm very pleased how Matt has been made a whole lot more interesting with the family association and potential plot complications. I do have to wonder if HRG knew Matt was related to a Company founder/associate.

If she does, she's not very good at it.
