according to the label at the bottom of the screen, it was four years in the future. Oh. Again: Attention. Wandering. Hell, I completely turned it off just into the second hour, that's how bored I was. I was too lost to be interested. It's just not MSTv for me anymore. I hope that this season is better for those still interested in the show, though.

Sylar and Peter are too powerful for effective narrative storytelling. Mostly agreed, though I'd hate to lose Peter. They constantly want us to forget that Peter possesses this or that power, because otherwise he'd be undefeatable.

I'd say that sleeping with Mohinder is the most intelligent thing Maya's done so far. At least it shows that she is in posession of all her faculties and hormones. I mean, what woman wouldn't want to sleep with Mohinder, LOL?!
GAIL *raises hand* I don't do dumb, and Mohinder has now shown himself to be about as dumb as they get. I mean, I always figured "no common sense, but a good scientist", but injecting himself with an experiment? Dumb as a post.

I'm gonna disagree that the first episode was hard to follow. I found it fairly straightforward, even with the time-jumping.

Whoa! Future-Peter shot Nathan right in front of now-Peter!? More time travel-y goodness, with the now-Claire perhaps never knowing the future that then-Claire had and hated so much that she was part of sending him back to un-do it. Um. If that makes any sense. And then he all dead and then not. Whoa!

Hiro, yay!!! And now he's able to play around with time? Adorable! ;D Also, he's the boss and not really wanting to be. Which is why he's playing with time and all, yes? Heee! I love Ando. "You can always give it to me. I'm extremely interested in money." ;D Yep. He's all bored now that he's destiny-free. And really, he should know better than to tempt fate by mocking the idea of something "knocking at my door". Holy crap!! Sylar!!! Not "fully" recovered? Locking her in and all seems rather "recovered" to me. Eeee!! Plus he's still all creepy and stalkery and stuff. But a padlocked door shouldn't even slow him down, should it? So he's not "fully" recovered. And now we've got Maya with a bat. What, making everyone bleed out their eyes not good enough for her anymore? Mohinder!!!!!!!! **goes to happy place** Where did he send Molly? Does this mean there is no more Matt and Mohinder and Molly household? **is sad** Don't you hurt Mohinder, Molly!!! Don't you dare!!!!!!! Um. Momo? Making her mad? Not perhaps the best idea. But then again, he wouldn't be our Mohinder if he didn't do something spectatluarly dumb each episode. And right on schedule, here comes that destiny you ordered, Hiro. Oh my cheese and bisquits. The sacred duty is to never open the safe?? Dude!! Interesting. So Hiro is now sort of addicted/trapped in his hero-ness? He's only someone if he's a hero? Except he might be right that his dad only told him not to open the safe because he, well, wanted him to open the safe. Hmmmm. A half of a formula and the "pure" blood (Claire's) that is the only salvation and of course it gets stolen right off. But he stops time, so that's cool! Someone new - cool! And she's funny! ;D Matt confronting Peter - only is it the other Peter? The future Peter! And he's got even more cool tricks he can do!

Not-dead Nathan wonders why he's not-dead.
Future-Peter wants to do something about his not-deadness.
Holy moly. Is he gonna go all religious on us? Yep. But at least it stops him from telling about the mutants. "Save ourselves, save the world." New catchphrase?
OMG, Mohinder all eager and excited about his possible discovery and caring and shirt open and . . . damn, Maya! Jump his bones already!!!
Give powers. But Maya wants powers to go away.
Sylar with another list of people to go after. Not good!! And now Claire!!! Eeeeeee!

OK, Sylar? Ewwww!
So, he's not killing anymore? Because she's "special" and "different" and can never die? Like what's his name from ancient Japan?
"It's in the wrong hands now." Hmmmmm. I can see each of their arguments, really.
"We can be angels." Hey, you can be hero-angels! **goes to a Bowie kind of place** Nathan and Mohinder and Hiro and Sylar (in his warped way), all thinking they see the "right" way for the mutants.
Holy fuck!! Linderman?! WTF?? That's just . . . . wha?
Whoa!! Nikki?!

Matt!! Eeeep!! Hiro doesn't want to go to the past again, only the future? Yeah, like that's gonna be better. Whoa! Furture-Ando with superpowers zapping future-Hiro? Dude! And then the world really ending, looks like. Or at least their city ending. Oh. Mohinder!!! What lovely mutantness will we see with you? Or will you just, you know, die? Momma Petrelli! Woot! "What have you done with Peter?" Heh! Momma P knows all, of course. ;D "The only future I've ever seen is the one caused by you." Hmmmmmmm. Now that is interesting! So, future-Peter put now-Peter inside someone else? Or disguised him? Whoa. Matt sees a picture of a broken firey Earth. Did he get sent to the future? Or is there another "paint pictures of the future" guy around painting on rocks? Or . . . ? And apparently Mohinder has become super-strong guy! Oooooh! Painting again!!! So, someone is doing these, yes?

Whee! I have no idea what is going on! Claire shooting at Peter, Nathan traveling back in time, to kill his own brother next to himself and Matt. And now Nathan's dead but suddenly comes back to life. Whoohoo!!!!! time to spend a week going through the twop recaps and reading the comic chapters. Woo hoo! Heroes wackiness!!! Future, past, dead, alive, Linderman! Wackiness! ;D

Hiro's getting the fine control down pat. Ando!!! Hiro, give a lion's share of your stock to your very capable sister. Excellent idea! It's like you're psychic or something. ;D It's like he was practically begging him to open it, wasn't he? It would have been smarter to put a fake half of formula in there and then hidden the real one somewhere else where Hiro could find it and be better able to help hide it because now he'd seen how others would try to take it. **nods**

Sylar and Peter are too powerful for effective narrative storytelling. **nods** All the things that seem to stop them now seem like they're just done for convenience of the story. Like I totally don't buy that Sylar is stopped by locked louvered closet doors.

dear claire, the room you were hiding in appeared to have windows, and you appeared to be on the first floor. did you ever consider leaving via one of them and running away instead of running back into the room with the sociopath that has telekenetic powers? sincerely, artemis. Dude!! Just bust on thru - it's not like going thru a plate glass window is gonna cause you more than a momentry inconvenience.

So they're both in a bad way. And he's cut her brainstem. Great. not irreperable. yet. Okay, I giggled at "Claire, that's disgusting" Great, he's ass laminated her healing power. but she's still alive. oh, how nice, he put her scalp back on her. Polite of him. And now he's even MORE fucking unkillable. "You are not like the others" how? Is she different to Adam, even? Okay, sunshine (clock noises for Sylar in the background) can you be cut up into pieces and stored at odd ends of the planet? Seriously! I mean it worked on the Judge, so . . . This!! This is what I'm sayin'!!!! Dude!!
