Daphne and Matt. The incoherent beginning to a beautiful, dysfunctional relationship. ;D Yep. He likes tests and quests and what not. Makes him feel all hero-y again. Ooooh, and next season we'll see a new version of it with 5, and so on and so forth. I tend to think he was having the same problem as Hiro - relying on his power too much. Starting to think he was invulnerable. Also? Freaked out. Well, and also not always that bright. I mean, not Mohinder levels of stupid, but still. An extreme version of Peter's power. Sort of like the similarity between Matt and his dad's power, maybe? So Peter and Gabriel are natural talents, and Nathan's a construct?

MommaP specifically said that they were "created" and, IMHO, specifically didn't say that Peter was created.

So is this what Claire plans to do with her powers - get herself and her moms in trouble until Dad shows up to save them or shoot somebody or both? Sigh. I guess it's typical teenager stupidity. College looks like it's out of the picture for now.
Of course, everyone else was acting stupid too, except for Hiro at the beginning and, to some extent, Daphne and Matt (who seem to really be hitting it off).
Love Matt's new tortoise. Hope he feeds and waters it.
Have I mentioned how disappointed I am in Spider-Mo-Mo? And the whole series is not doing that much for me. I also fear if the writers don't get their act together and write something coherent, the show will not be renewed.
Sylar acting rather noble and Peter acting like a Villain was interesting, though.

College looks like it's out of the picture for now. the funny thing is that when claire went off on her own, she did really well. i think she really could have helped vortex guy (forget his name) beyond the help she'd already given if her dad and sylar hadn't shown up and caused him to vortex himself. it still seems to me like meredith has a detrimental effect on claire. i found it funny that meredith went off thinking she could nobly save claire, and instead claire ended up saving her.

Teaser
About travellers and the journey.
Matt's back in the US and he brought the turtle with him.
Hey, this voice over actually makes a lot of sense.
Bar scene with Hiro and Ando again. Now we'll get to see how Hiro really did it. Yep, it was a set up.
Daphne is upset that Hiro is badass. She's a principled criminal.
Hiro's going to Africa!
A pre-cog.
He's supposed to get rid of what's his name.
Hiro and Ando make up. Aww...
Mama Bennett goes villian hunting with Claire. Awesome!!
"Doyle's marionette theater." Ugh.
This guy is thoroughly disgusting. I feel dirty just watching him.
Adam meets Daddy Petrelli.
Wow, it's unusual to see Adam scared like that.
And...Daddy Petrelli can suck the life force from people?
And is Adam really dead or can he reconstitute himself?

Part I
Daphne's having second thoughts about her life of crime.
Ah, so this is how Matt and Daphne hook up. Neat.
Daphne's confused about Matt knowing who she is, forgetting the whole pre-cogs know you're coming thing.
Tracy and Nathan meet with Mohinder.
Ooh, did Dr. Zimmerman know Daddy Suresh? Mohinder seems to recognize the name. That would
Mohinder's more interested in fixing himself than helping Tracy. This does not bode well.
Daphne and Matt talking. Confusion abounds. Hee.
Mohinder drugs Tracy and Nathan. Bad Mohinder! No biscuit!

Part II
Daphne springs Sylar free.
Wait, how did he get back in the cell?
Sylar sweetie, your "I'm not a killer" efforts don't seem to be working very well.
Sylar frees Peter. With slashy undertones.
The Sociopath Boys enter a 12 step program together.
Hiro and Ando in Africa.
They all look the same to me. Hee!
It's not kidnapping; we're just borrowing him. Hee!
Hiro sees a picture of being hit with a shovel. Hiro gets hit with a shovel. Hee!
Claire and Mama Bennett's rescue mission. Mama Bennett is having second thoughts?
Ah, Claire got the taser from Daddy Bennett's closet. Heh.
Mama Bennett gets under the control of Doyle. Ooh, I have the feeling that this rescue mission isn't going to go well. I think they should have brought along The Haitian.

Part III
Back and the Rescue Attempt Going Horribly Wrong. Oy.
Back in Africa.
Hiro tries to
"One minute before Hiro got hit." And he gets hit again. Hee!
Now Daphne visits Mohinder.
Mohinder is suddenly very interested in Pinehearst.
And Dapne discovers Mohinder's spiderweb. Which will probably drive her to ally herself with Matt.
Hiro and Ando try things the traditional way.
Back in Doyle's den of creepiness. And he's making the girls play Russian Roullette?
Making Claire choose between her moms?
What are you, her mother? Hee. Except... now Doyle has more ammo to work with. Ugh.
Gun points towards Claire. So she's gonna get shot, but it will be OK since she can't die. Yep. And Claire knocks Doyle out.

Daddy Bennett realizes that Claire doesn't need him anymore.
Daddy Bennett proposes working with Meredith.
So the "hunger" is a lust for power?
Super Brothers! Fight fight fight!
Tracy tries to reason with Mohinder.

Coda
Daphne spills the beans to Matt. And warns him to stay away.
Matt wanted to save Daphne, but he's going to set things in motion that lead to her getting killed.
Ugh. Another guy who wants to protect.
What skeletons are in Daphne's closet?
Back in Africa. More shovel humor.
Pre Cog guy was testing Hiro and Ando.
Pinhearst logo. And four guys I couldn't quite recognize.
Invisible dude. Have we had one of those before?
Daddy Petrelli starts his presentation. And Peter shows up. And a not so happy family reunion commences.
Daddy Petrelli sucks the life force out of Peter! Or not. Oh, he took all his powers!
Wait, is that maybe what happened to Sylar last season too?

Oh, OK. The actress who plays Meredith was also on Nip/Tuck. That's where I recognize her from.

And is Bruce Boxleitner going to come back? I thought he would have a larger role, him being a sort of big name in genre tv.
