Although, it is kind of weird to think of HRG and Claire swimming through Tracy more or less.
I was a bit confused about what Tracy's ulitimate fate was since she didn't reappear out of the pool she created. I know HRG and ER had some exchange there, but I missed exactly what was said (and deleted the ep before I remembered I wanted to go back and check).
I do remember thinking when HRG was coughing after coming up for air (and watching the "water" dripping off both him and Claire) "Ugh - that's NOT water!"

I think that she just went back to wherever she came. I also choose to believe that she used groundwater to augment her powers so that the stuff dripping off of Noah and Claire was water and not Tracy.
Good call on Lauren's part to get Tracy involved.
Marvelous casting on geriatric Charlie. I actually had to check IMDB to make sure it was a different actress and not an exceedingly well-made-up Jayma. Best part of the ep!
Wacky thought: suppose Claire revealing her Specialness puts our Heroes into a dark future like what they were trying to avoid in Season One, and further suppose that this somehow allows the two timelines to converge. Maybe Peter's Irish girlfriend could make another appearance!
It looks even wackier typed out than it sounded in my head, but I still like it.
Yes, and then they will merge with the Lost timelines!
If they brought back Badass!Hiro, I'd totally start watching again.
Finally caught up on the season and "meh."
WTF was up with none of the Carnies blinking an eye when Edgar came back, considering he was accused of Joseph's murder? At least he apparently hadn't forgotten and sided against Samuel.
Did love old Charlie in the hospital. (And agree with the awesome casting there.) Props to Ando for calling Hiro on his motivation, and props to Hiro for actually telling Charlie what he planned to do instead of just going off and doing it without regard to her own wishes.
Also, I have to think Charlie made out pretty well, considering her encyclopedic memory probably gave her a very good idea of what was going to happen and make plans accordingly.
Not thrilled about Claire outing everyone, or "good" Sylar, as we've heard this tune before and it wasn't very compelling back then.
That said, if they play up his ability to assume other identities (personality-wise, not necessarily the shape-shifting power) and couple that with clever uses of his powers, it could make for some very interesting television. But I don't trust the writers to be able to manage that.
Apparently now that Nathan is actually dead (maybe), the Matt doing something bad-assed to neutralize Sylar only to have it undone in the following episode is the new "Nathan dies".
Glad the Carnie storyline is finally over.
Rumours of a 13 episode finish-up season. Though I've heard at least one cast member has made other commitments already.
