Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Heroes 1: We Could Be Heroes  

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the show and ancillary materials such as web comics! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. Chuffa, Chuffa!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Anyway, I thought she meant after his death.

I meant all the time, but it was mostly just wishful thinking. The magic negro trope makes me twinge, especially in a show with two white people who are effectively immortal and two who have come back from the dead.

Someone remind me why this show is called "Heroes", please?

Does that mean we get another one?

edit:: Hiro that is

I'm watching Heroes on delay.

I've decided to move to that neighborhood in Newark with all the nifty craftsman bungalows.

Seriously. Because Peter's mission statement is scaring the bejeezus outa me.

And dude, Matt? If you hadn't gone to where Daphne had been shot, perhaps she wouldn't have lingered there and had the opportunity to be shot? I'm not counting her as dead, yet, though.

Kinda meh on the ep as a whole.

I did love the dichotomy of Peter's parting words with a wood paneled station wagon driving down the highway.

What were they? something about being ready for whatever? The unexpected? I remember that seeing my mum's old car threw me, as I suddenly thought the survivors of Oceanic 815 the prisoner transport were traveling in a family car from a couple decades ago.

They never said whether the rest of the prisoners survived the crash or not, and if the bombing of the plane meant the murder of the still-living people chained and strapped inside.
