That was a really good episode. Danko's a crazy idiot, but the plot is fun.
Bester: Mal. Whaddya need two mechanics for? Mal: I really don't.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I wonder if anyone cares that Claire is risking the frat boys getting alcohol poisoning because they're not really going to be able to keep up?
What's the age for alcohol consumption in Mexico, anyway?

Our wings are not tired.
Danko is crazy and arrogant and likely believes he is smarter and in control of Sylar. I'm hoping that Sylar doesn't enjoy the shapeshifting because of the effort.
I didn't really enjoy the episode that much. Didn't like the drinking thing. Want more Hiro, Ando, Matt.

I'm with Laura. I like watching Quinto and Ivanek bounce off each other, and felt that both the family reunion plots went on too damn long, even if they were necessary to the metaplot.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
It does make it pretty clear that Danko's out-of-the-blue genocidal bigotry toward people whose existence he never suspected before this year was a sham, and he's been needlessly sacrificing his own agents' lives (and potentially those of however many innocent people Matt's "terrorist attack" would have killed in Washington) out of some pathological need to gain and abuse power.
Seems like he was born about 70 years too late, and on the wrong continent.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does HRG think Sylar is dead? Someone on WX suggested he doesn't because he looked for a bullet hole and didn't find it. But Danko knows about the required evidence, and he's only partially an idiot.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I think HRG knows Sylar is only mostly dead.

Why do you think so?

Because he checked the back of his head. There was something there. I expected him to say to someone "make sure no one takes this out."

Hmm. I did notice that omission of instruction, but I figured he found what he was looking for and thinks Sylar's out of the picture, instead of roaming unrestrained.
