Rene has always deliberately controlled his power. Sometimes he turns people off, sometimes he takes memories.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
And apparently the power-blocking doesn't work against the shape-shifting power.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I think it works against any power, but I assumed that Peter can control which powers he wants to block.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
You must have to direct it at a target, otherwise I'd just leave it on all the time.

Jesus, you'd think after all she's been through that Claire would know when she's being fed a load of bullshit.

I don't get why anyone is buying Samuel's bullshit. Even before Lydia knew he was a murderer didn't they know him best as a drunk and a ne'er-do-well? Wasn't that all pretty recent? Now he's their saviour? But he's managed to talk everyone but Hiro round to his way of thinking.

I don't blame Samuel, I blame the writers.

But do you blame Hiro? And Peter?

I tend to give Hiro a break for being hopelessly naive. Peter is blinded by love. But the writers are ultimately responsible for both those things and for making Claire a dipshit as well.
