So, is Sylar going soft again? Moira Kelly? are you kidding me?

What, no comments on the show? Well, I have one -- Tracy isn't stupid. She knew that Abby was horrified by what was going on, and that Abby was going to shut the project down because she didn't believe. Why would she jeapordize her possible release by using her powers, especially when killing the guy wasn't going to get her anything? That's not Tracy's style.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
She knew that Abby was horrified by what was going on, and that Abby was going to shut the project down because she didn't believe. Why would she jeopardize her possible release by using her powers, especially when killing the guy wasn't going to get her anything? That's not Tracy's style.
That's not entirely fair. She was trapped like a rat, and kept under grueling conditions, with no reason to believe that Abby would be successful. And she's probably half out of her mind right now. She was running on fear and adrenaline, as the hunter guy knew she would.
In other news, Sylar Jr. can go, but I'm kinda fond of aquageek.

I hope he portends another visit from Seth Green and friend. Cause that would be awesome.
Also, I agree with Victor. I'm not sure what Tracy thought she was going to do when she saw Abby, but when the guy got his arm free, she went on total fear (like with the reporter she killed).

true, but there was no point in killing the analyst. She was trapped and she wasn't going to get out. She killed him out of spite and why do that in front of the only person who seemed to have any interest in having her released.

I'm all about Asian representation on TV, but I really wish Hiro's storylines didn't all come off like X-Men Afterschool Specials. Can he grow up at some point, maybe?

I laughed like a drain when Sylar turned on the radio to drown out his mini-me and "Psycho Killer" was playing.
Also, did NBC get a 2-for-1 T. Heads deal tonight, what with CHUCK using "Once in a Lifetime" as well?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Tracy has never had great control of her ability, has she? I'm not surprised it went off.
I'm disappointed Moira was ready to flush the Constitution but, hey, who isn't these days? Note: Scary people? You can stil try them.
I always love it when they make me root for Sylar. And I like that the kid is pretty twisted.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I thought the episode was okay. Aquageek looked familiar.
Sylar may be going soft, but the GF also pointed out that Sylar has no way of knowing the address the kid gave him was the right one. His lie detector only seems to work with spoken lies. He may want to keep the kid around as insurance. (Plus, I just realized now, the kid could also have spilled to the MRD where Sylar was going, so there's another reason for Sylar to keep him around. Or at least not trapped in the black van of "We're not a secret government organization, honest. Lots of people drive vans just like this one.")
I'm willing to chalk up Tracy icing the guy as a matter of fear and adrenaline, especially since the guy decked her pretty good. I can't imagine her thinking it was a good idea.
I was also saddened by new boss lady being so quick to throw the Constitution away. I think an ongoing storyline of her trying to get Nathan's group shutdown because of the Constituational violations while other people in the goverment manuevered to keep it going would have been far more interesting, and would have served the story the writers seem to be trying to tell much better.
