Wow, that episode was full of all kinds of WTF! Jesus, Mohinder, what is wrong with you? I thought last episode he was uncertain which side was right, and yet now he's so sure that he's sided with the good guys that he's willing to SHOOT NOAH IN THE FACE?? I don't really see how he got from Point A to Point B there.
Mrs. Bennet had some great moments in this episode. I hope we get to see lots of more of her in the future. I also loved (in the sense of being horrified by) Matt's slide into moral greyness, and his scene with Mrs. Petrelli was pretty badass.
I continue to hate West. Well, I continue to hate the idea that we are supposed to view him as a good guy and a romantic hero, as opposed to finding him creepy and stalkerish. He had some good moments here, but I'm dissatisfied with any attempts to position him as a good boyfriend, since I still find it hard to believe that harassing and stalking someone is an acceptable way of showing interest or affection.
I'm glad they didn't drag out the Adam reveal, since it was fairly obvious even before Hiro saw his face. Oh, and I dug Hiro's eulogy for his father at the end, which drove home the "generations" theme quite well.
And finally, THANK GOD they brought back Bennet. I was more shocked at losing him than I've been over any previous death in this show, I think -- maybe because his death was so clearly foretold that I just expected that story would end differently, somehow. But I totally did NOT expect Claire's blood to be able to bring people other than herself back to life! Coooooooool.
I want an ep of the previous generation, with extra special power reveals!

Knowing Mohinder, he was probably aiming for his arm. Sadly, since he'd seen the fucking paintings, he should have fucking known better.
It didn't even occur to me that Claire's blood could heal someone that doesn't have a superpower, but TCG totally called it.

Actually, I'm curious if it's useless against the virus, since Mo's blood didn't work either on Nikki.
I'm not convinced Matt's bad was all that bad. Mama is a big liar. Like HELL "everything we did was for you" For all we know Victoria is locked up in a lab too.
What Matt
does
with that information is what will tell. The fact that he made one of the most manipulative and possibly evil people on this show reveal something she didn't want to isn't exactly a damnable offense. Even if she says it is.
I'm scared for Matt because he seemed to be really groovin' on using his new power (even on his adopted daughter). I'm not overly worried about Mama P. She's a big girl. She can take it. And I believe that she will get her own back against Matt some day soon. And it will be good.
Loved the call back when HRG woke up on that table. "Holy shit!" indeed. Hee. But really, I'm surprised that Claire's blood can bring people back from the dead. That's quite a bit beyond healing.
I will state right now that even though Mo is officially Dead to Me, I'm psyched about his reunion with Sylar next week. Bonus points if tuning forks and/or pinning to the ceiling are involved somehow. Double bonus points if Sylar killed the twins on the cross country trip.
I can kinda buy Claire's blood bringing people back from the dead.
But regenerating his eye? That's the part that surprised me.
Double bonus points if Sylar killed the twins on the cross country trip.
haha. word. triple points if they don't even show us.
