I hate that kid with Sylar. I hope they're done with him now. I know people found the roadtrip cute and stuff, but ick. I'm no serial killer (not officially, anyway) and I'd have offed him long ago.
I want Micah back.
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The director was Eric Laneuville, late of ER and St. Elsewhere, et cetera, and he's good. I hope they get him on a regular basis!
Also, for those who are Due South fans, there was an Underwater Kiss, Excuse Me, Buddy Breathing scene. I actually really liked Water-Breathing Lad, especially compared to Claire's past male leads. He was, you should excuse the phrase, non-drippy.

I almost mentioned that I don't remember Benton and Ray going quite that far....
Also, the one agent saying that Aqua Boy was Claire's type seemed like a hat-tip to the crazy Petrellicest she has with Uncle Pete.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I liked Sylar's decision not to kill the kid, but I really hope he's gone.
I also liked Peter and Matt acknowledging their poor planning. Yes, we have no plan for escape, but we have to get in first, so let's worry about that later.

Compassionately intolerant
I really liked Aqua Boy but I wish he had another power. The pool scene was pretty much the extent of his usefulness...how many hidenseeks can you do underwater, realistically.
Wait. Now we are supposed to sympathize with PuppetSkeeveMasterFlash?! After what he did to Claire and her mothers, why on earth would Rebel send him to her? Ick to infinity.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Maybe he was the only one loose and close enough to get to Claire in time.

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
My only question with Aqua Boy is did the agents not know WHAT his power was, just that he had one?
Because that seems like a shitty thing to do to your agents.

That was exactly my thought. I'm hoping Rebel's not Micah if that was deliberate.

Our wings are not tired.
Ick, I didn't want to see PuppetSkeeveMasterFlash again. Rebel really needs to be Micah.
If the agents did know about Aqua Boy's power they are seriously stupid. I'm thinking they know the list of who has powers but not what. My boys didn't appreciate my declaration that Aqua Boy was a cutie patootie, then they debated how to spell patootie. I was so proud.
I enjoyed that episode quite a lot. Agree about Sylar and the kid, agree about Mom rocking. Good stuff.
Pooooor Matt. How often do we get to say this?

Yeah, Mrs. Bennett was seriously good last night. I think she was my favourite thing.
Maybe Rebel!Micah didn't know the full extent of the puppet guy's actions. I wonder why he didn't steal the video himself, whoever he (she?) actually is. I'm also impressed that Pete actually released it--those threats never seem to get acted on, one reason or another.
