Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Tracy/Claire hijinks for the win!

Tracy/Claire girl-talk FAIL!

I was about to take serious issue with Hiro letting Mo go down like that.

Our wings are not tired.

I keep thinking I am going to get caught up, but so far I have only watched the season opener. The rest sit on my computer for eventual viewing.

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

Oh for fuck's sake, Mohinder, I think we know what you're investigating leads to. Go home to you oh-so-solid-priorities bride for eight weeks or so. In fact, listen to her. She's as ditsy as you are, but you really DO only make things worse.

OK, Claire and the foot were comedy gold. But what's with the "maybe that's what your body wants you to do?" didn't she learn last week that Samuel was a nut job? You might mention that?

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

So, can Claire Bear's blood heal Nathan now that we've learnt they didn't torch the corpse?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'm glad we finally know a little bit about Samuel's motivation. I'm still unclear on his power -- it seems to be like telekinesis but it only works on dirt? And if he gets surrounded by too many heroes, his power will get uncontrollable and the earth will be destroyed?

He's Terra/Geo Force.

I thought he was displaying some other powers earlier on, but I can't remember what they were. Is the ink stuff all in the ink? Because he's used it on more than just Lydia.

He seems to have done a dramatic 180° over the less than eight week period--how long ago did we first see him? He looked sober and focussed at the funeral of his brother. Who I'm guessing he killed in a fit of pique.

How is it that the show can have a scene of Mohinder in bed and he's not shirtless? I object heartily! And why won't anyone on this show stay dead? I don't wish death on Mo, but a kevlar vest? Seriously? Oh, Hiro. Of all the ones to save in order to foil an evil plot, Mo is so not the one.

The Sylar in Matt in Nathan (now maybe a part of him in Peter? Who knows?). Y'all, it's just wearing me out. I'm glad to have Nathan back, and those two boys sure do pack a whole mess of pretty, but I'm just over the entire Sylar thing.

Claire/Tracy was fun, especially the foot. (HRG's reaction was priceless) I suppose of all the NikkI/IkkiN personas, this is the one I've liked the best. That's not saying much, but there you go. I did think power panic attacks was kinda funny.

Watching last night gave me no desire to go back and see what I've missed in the episodes I didn't catch. The carnies are still the most interesting part of the show. Chief Carnie Dude is just magnificently creepy. I really like that actor a lot. I'm still not sure if he knows that he'll destroy the world if he gathers enough heroes around him or if he just thinks he'll get exponentially more powerful. And I still don't know how he made that ink into a fist that almost choked that knife guy to death early in the season, since his power seems to be more about manipulating earth/rock/stone/whatever.
