Spike ,'Potential'
[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!
I don't remember him losing it, and Peter stole it from him fairly recently, so I was thinking he still had it. But I also don't remember him getting a girlfriend, so I'm way off on Mohinder trivia.
I'm glad he's back, if only for the pretty. And I don't see why Hiro couldn't have just jumped him forward twelve weeks in time or something.

Yeah, that's what I was expecting. What's the opposite of Occam's razor? That's what the nuthouse option seemed like to me.
How do you get a guy committed to a nuthouse under a fake name and prescribed sedatives, anyway?
And a nuthouse in the fifties at that (I'm pretty sure they don't leave people all alone restrained in padded cells these days, but I could be wrong.)
Maybe he took Mohinder to a nuthouse in the fifties.
Nikki/Jessica was (were?) in a padded cell for a while...
Yeah, I didn't enjoy that episode at all. So much blah, I don't even know where to begin. It wasn't bad, I just wasn't really interested in what was going on. And I'm with the WTF on throwing Mohinder into a padded cell.
I'm glad at the theory (or rather the visual) of Mohinder being back, but damn if they didn't drag it out.
I think I realized my issue with the episode.
Main characters of focus: Samuel, Mohinder, Tracy, Nathan and Peter, with a dash of Hiro.
Characters I don't give two craps about: Samuel (and the rest of his Carny bretheren), Mohinder, Tracy
Plus they undid Matt's shining moment from last week. (Which the previews already spoiled, but still.)
Yeah, I wish they'd allowed Matt to be a hero.
Mohinder never learns.
I like the Nathan and Peter, the episode needed more HRG.
I'm okay with the Matt/Sylar exchange. They had to get Sylar out of Matt, and it had to be done against Matt's will. They played out tensions nicely as Sylar first threatened Matt with his family, and then with killing innocents and Matt went the hero route to try and commit suicide by cop.
Pete's got the healing to save Hiro, and he and Nathan get the tip from the Hatian in time to unravel the mystery then show up at Matt's bedside in time to save him, and give Sylar the out. I think they earned it.
What kills me is Pete giving up the healing ability to fly after Nathan, basically condemning Hiro (and multiple future accident victims) to death. So friggin' stupid.
I also echo all the above sentiments about Hiro and Mohinder - why he didn't just jump him forward 8 weeks is beyond me.
