Yes, Niki, of course the Shadowy Conspiracy will put the personality who doesn't like to kill people for money in charge.

Mohinder? You need to learn to plan your rebellions ahead. Try to learn from Noah. Hopefully without becoming evil in the process.

Hiro: ?!?

Peter: !?!

Also, there are going to be way too many posts around the Net consisting of nothing but HRG SPEAKING RUSSIAN GLRBL.

You think that's Niki? I was seeing at least some of Jessica in there.

I swear Noah has a language power.

I expect that this week's comic will have to do with Adam.

Okay, after mellowing out from the awesomeness of Claire and West's "prank", that's not how public humilation is done. That's just really dark. Make her think she just witnessed someone being murdered (by supernatural means) and being attacked (by supernatural means) is all kinds of f*cked up.

How refreshing that Hiro didn't stoically lie about his love for Yaeko for the sake of the greater good, but then how not refreshing that Kensei witnessed the infidelity. Why did Hiro stay back in time again? My first thought was because his powers had failed him again, but now I don't know.

Mohinder! You showed a backbone and the next time we see you you're lounging around. The hell?

Also, Tobby (can't remember any name but what the TWoP recapper gave him) almost has me convinced he's not completely evil. And then his extra niceness to Monica threw me. Although, if the Company had used these tactics for their catch and release program to begin with, they may not have as many of the problems as they have now.

And if I were Mohinder (as in, me in Mohinder's place), I would totally go straight to Tobby and question the partnership of a violent-prone subject. Just get the threat on the table.

Speaking of the threat, does it seem like they integrated her personalities, but destroyed Nikki in the process, rather than Jessica? Oh, Micah!

You know, when I was watching this episode, I kept thinking there was a lot to talk about, but mostly I'm just stuck on HRG being his supremely fucked-up badass self.

I swear Noah has a language power.

What other languages have we seen him speak? It would be a fantastic superpower!

He thought at Matt in Japanese.

I think I enjoyed this episode more than last week.

I have no idea if Bob is on the up-and-up with being helpful to Monica, though I can't figure out what his angle is if he isn't, considering his original plan involved de-powering and possibly killing her as an experiment.

There's definitely some (if not all) of Jessica in Niki's "integrated" personality.

So, are we thinking man with smoking gun in Isaac's painting is this "Adam" character or is that supposed to be West? I also remember Niki pounding on a wall in one of them. I'm drawing a blank on the others.

There was a syringe in one, no?

Naturally, loved HRG speaking Russian.

And I admit that the uh, prank, did make me like West a bit. . . although talk about NOT staying lowkey.

Okay, enjoyed the stuff in Japan. Particularly, Kensei knocking Hiro out.

And Mohinder - still with the bad choice-making.

ew ew ew, I thought the "prank" was supremely fucked up and made me dislike Claire on par with my dislike of West. He's a peeping Tom with a Superman complex as far as I can tell.

Also wanted to hit Mohinder for his continuing tool-like behavior. Wanted to hit Sylar for morphing from creepy evil villain guy to just creepy evil exposition guy. And so wanted to hit Peter for bringing the Irish girl along for no explicable reason. In fact, only one I didn't want to hit was HRG, which is probably a good thing because he could kill me.

Actually, Julie said what I meant: OWI probably "cured her" to more like the personality that's useful to them.

So, are we thinking man with smoking gun in Isaac's painting is this "Adam" character or is that supposed to be West?

Please tell me there's not a Batman joke in there somewhere.
