Claire, back where she was when we first met her.
The Haitian. DAMN. He can't replace what he's taken.
"What you can do, what I can do: that is God. Respect it accordingly"
Nathan and Hiro...
"WHOOSH!" "keep it down" (quieter) "whoosh"
"Think I can help" oh my.
Nevada desert.
Ted? Radioactive Man? Working with his powers? I thought he was in custody.
So she's gonna recreate the circs under which she met Zach.
Can't hurt to try. Zach is a good guy at heart. "So I never forget what I am"
Oh, you SO will freak out, Zach.
Splat..
"and as far as you know, that was attempt number one"
Well, it was how she bonded with Zach before. Though I wonder how she got him to come out with her the first time, when she didn't have past knowledge. Wonder how clean she's gonna come with him about his mind-wiping.

Shrink ain't gonna help you much, if you kill him.
Aww! he can hold hands with her!! that's so sweet and freaky at the same time.
Oh, he understands about Jessica well enough, Niki.
Oh... poor Niki.
Uh oh, Jessica.
I thought that the note said she'd let little mo-mo loose in Central Park.
Another Daddy side of Daddy Bennett.
Wow, he's copping to a mistake.
Heh! He needs Mo-mo!
How the Hell DID GoodFather make that list up?
"Control that" hooo boy.
Mo-mo, keep your friends close, and your enemies closer....
So Bennett's going the less-threatening route.
Odd tht he didn't just take it.
And Matt's back home!!!
Is he gonna tell her about his talent? Yes, he is.
How do you think he busted you on cheating on him?
And we cut to Peter.. who is having dreams..
Empty New York.. rehash of the other dream but different elements.. Is that Eccleston laughing? with the scruffy berd?
Kerboom.
AND he wakes up.

Damn. Lots of angsty, sweet-sad moments in this ep. Claire and Zach. "Someone else was my best friend, but I lost him too." "Zach, do you feel we could be friends?" "No." Niki's lawyer says the outburst aren't helping. Um, yeah, I'll bet not. Ooops. Seeking the death penalty? That's gonna bring out the other one . . . Aaaand here she comes. Oh, interesting. "Don't pay anyt attention to her." "When I want your opinion, I will ask for it. Get us a shrink!" Well, that cat is now out of the bag. "Stealing is not a part of the Bushido." Well, that's true. But the museum will blow up with New York anyway . . . Hmmmm. That's true too. "Maybe you need the sword to steal the sword." ;D I love these guys. Haa! Slo-mo instead of stopped time. "Good enough." ;D ;D ;D "Our life of lengend begins." And then, oopsie daisy - the real sword is not there. Linderman!!! Eeeeek! Isaac, lookin' damn good there. Heh. "Waiting for the shock to clear." Ah. A "clinic" that he barely remembers. All the players starting to come together. Heeeee! I love Nathan's "the world doesn't work like this" followed immediately by Hiro and Ando's arrival. "Flying man!" ;D

I think Linderman's the one pulling HRG's strings...

Woot!! I guessed a while back that the symbol looked like ancient Chinese. (secret) What was it - 2 characters that meant 'special ability' and 'Godsend'? Love that Zach and Claire are reconnecting. And that Nathan FINALLY said that he could help. Isaac looked mighty fine - but seemed to have been mind-wiped. And whoa - Nikki channelled Jessica's power.

"When I find him, I'm gonna kill him" hee! thats a mom for ou.
"I give up! you can paint the future!"
Just a flight to the desert?
Hey, it IS Eccleston!
Uh oh. He's the don't notice me man. And Peter's accidentally absorbed his power. So stuff is just breaking around people.
Thorazine for Miss Jessica..
Zach and Claire bonding.
Heh, Hiro wearing the painting case like a katana..
Oh, Jessica, you are SO freaking creepy a bad sister.
Huh. Eccleston may not be a bad guy, just a tempermental one.

Okay, I'm gonna go out on a limb right now and make a prediction: Linderman is Claire's father.

Claire chatting with the Haitian about the "save the cheerleader" thing. Good questions, too. Have I been saved? Or do I still need saving? He can't put the memories back into Zach, that's not how his power works. Tells her she's not alone. Interesting. I think maybe he means "you're not alone, because you have God, which is where our powers come from". And she takes it to mean she's not alone, she can start over with Zach. But, I also saw it could mean, she's not alone because she has Haitian guy to talk to - he's exactly what she's been looking for. Someone else who is like her. Hiro and Nathan in a nice little comic dialog. Nathan still all jumpy and "don't say that too loud" (loved loved loved Hiro's little quieter whooosh gesture ;D ). I think Hiro and others being so . . . matter of fact about it is helping Nathan get over his issues a bit. "I have powers, you have powers" - why not a guy that could make a city go boom? Huh. Flashing firey hand guy. What's up with that? Maybe he's . . . like, channeling the lightning? Claire and Zach - she's reacreating the first filmed jump. Ohhhhh. She was taping it at first because she thought she'd meet her real parents and show it to them and they'd understand. But now, she just wants it for herself . . . so she'll never forget. Zach is coming along nicely on the road to being a friend again, so that's good. And ouch, crunch crunch, push the bones back in - "As far as you know, that was attempt number one."

Okay, I'm gonna go out on a limb right now and make a prediction: Linderman is Claire's father. And he gave him to HRG to give her a 'normal' life? Seems plausible. I wonder about her brother, because HRG and her foster mom don't seem like a couple.

Hey. So the symbol is a mixture of Japanese characters? Great talent and Godsend? Interesting. I think it must also have to do with being a warped version of a double helix, though, too. Considering the theme of mutating people and all. Maybe the ancient sacred symbols sort of . . . predicted this future or something? Yeah, I think the DNA thing has got to figure into it. Of course, DNA is the basis of all life, almost god-like.

DL and Micah visiting Niki - "she's here - she's real". DL doesn't know, not like Micah does. Sweet-sad moment when he reaches thru the glass to hold her hand. Telling Micah his daddy will take good care of him and he has to be strong. And Micah, understandably, saying that's not fair. Holy moley! "Just let me hold him" and then, she cracks the baton in half. No wonder the guards are scared shitless of her. Paper!daddy visits Mo-mo. Stay away from my Mohinder, you . . . you . . . cricket advice giving guy!! Very very very interesting conversation. "Have you come to kill me, now?" "She had a power." "She learned to use it wisely." "Who are you to judge?" "I made a mistake. I should have come to you a long time ago." "We could help each other." "Why? You need me." "Together we could make a difference." "Sorry - not interested." "Contact me when you change your mind." Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Matt the cop says they need to be completely honest. ;D And she soooooooo wasn't expecting his side of things. "I can read minds!" Uh huh. Peter dreams . . .. Ooooooh, there's the Doctor!! **bounces** His brother now offers to help him, but . . . . boom anyway, and his brother burns up in front of him. Eeeeek!

Peter wakes up raving and leaves the hospital. Well, I guess we could see that one coming. Simone - heeee! She's so . . . . innocently happy. "You can paint the future!" But then, noooooooooo! Don't go running to Linderman!!!!!! Dang. Off to Vegas again. Oh, and Peter too? Well, seeking out the desert and past nuclear test sites is actually . . . . sort of logical. If he really thinks he can't control it. Sees the Doctor stealing . . . . Oh! He's invisible! "You can see me?! No one sees me!" So, I guess Peter just . . . went invisible too, when he got in range of the guy? And now our ending montage. Niki and Sylar both drugged up and locked in. Mohinder talking about imposing order onto chaos. And then, oopsie - here comes Jessica. "Who needs God when you have me." Yeah. 'Cuz you're doing such a bang up job helping out so far, aren't you. Good ep! Wrapped things up from where stuff was last time but also kept the plot moving forward. Lots of new directions to go.

Two weeks? he's been in a hospital bed for two weeks? huh. His brother is actually there? Niki.. heh... guard with a broke nose and two black eyes... ;D Looks like Jessica's been a busy girl, eh? She really did a nice job with it, didn't she? And even took the opportunity to twist the knife into daddy a bit at the same time. It's the smirky grin. Makes you want to wipe it off his face a bit, doesn't it? Yeah, I'm a bit nervous about that. He's . . . making it be soooo important. Controlling or managing them, maybe? If the story was that the guy was all wild and stuff and then the sword helped him pull himself together? Maybe it will help Peter not go boom, help him control all the different powers he gets exposed to?
