Great. It's giving him the power of crappy editing.

so much yay that fans are probably holding yay parades! ;D The one decent thing Sylar has done in his time on the show. Now, if we could only get someone to do the same thing to Sylar.
But in the meantime, I'll join in the Yay! parade .

Dear writers,
Trying to juggle six storylines in one episode? Does a disservice to all of them. Just pop some Ritalin, focus on one or two, and we'll all be much, much happier.
Sincerely,
Sara
*no insult or offense towards those folks dealing with ADD or ADHD intended—I happen to take Ritalin myself, although for a different reason. A vague disclaimer, etc...

It's hard to keep track of who has stolen whose powers, and who has kept their own powers or had them disappear by other means.
I did enjoy the 16 years ago flashbacks, actually much more than the present-day scenes. I'm so sick of psycho-Sylar; I can only hope he'll suck in someone's powers that are too much for him and he'll explode or implode or something. Or get too 'full' of all the different powers he's stolen and explode. And then burn all the little bitty pieces of Sylar so they don't reassemble...

Heeee! ;D Good one. Although I actually liked this ep for the most part; it seemed all exciting and quippy and bouncy. But then again, I've kinda stopped looking for lots of depth and comprehensiveness in it all and am just in it for the pretty and the angst and the banter. Um. Which kinda isn't all that different from my usual mode for virtually any show, now that I read that again, does it? Shallow R Me! ;D

Teaser
Mama Nakamura! And she's played by hey it's that girl. And... where is Mama Nakamura now?
Why are these two talking in English if they're native language is Japanese? Other than so Claire can understand them? Oh, maybe it's to prevent Young Hiro from understanding.
Ah, Mama Nakamura was also a healer.
Back on the beach. I'd think that Sylar would be tired of wearing that grody shirt. And the blood on his neck.
Sylar breaks up with Daddy Petrelli.
And then sets fire to Elle and... seems remorseful? Oh, I don't know anymore.

Part I Back at the Paper Company. Now Peter is supposed to kill Daddy Petrelli? Why not just do it yourself, Mama Petrelli, instead of making your son do it for you? Jeez. Daddy Petrelli and Tracy scheming. Nathan returns. Intelligent Design? I'm not even sure what the show is trying to say about that. Daddy Petrelli is training an army of super soldiers. That'll end well. Mama Bennett and Claire. Sylar takes another victim. Ah, he wants to find out whether he's a Petrelli or not.

Part II
Soldier talks about why he wants super powers.
Matt, Ando, and Daphne.
They're asking about the package from last year and they expect this guy to know about it? Oh, I guess he does.
Bike messsenger vs Daphne. bike, bike, bike. Run, run, run. Tumble, tumble, tumble.
Hiro gets all domestic. I bet he's making cookies.
About giving the catalyst to Hiro instead of Claire. Interesting.
Wow, Daddy Nakamura just ripped Hiro to shreds.
Daddy Bennett comes home. What does he suspect about Claire? Or is this just natural paranoia?

Part III
Claire tells Daddy Bennett how it is.
So, do the Bennetts in the present remember this bit about meeting teenage Claire when they first got BabyClaire?
Oh, Hiro made waffles.
Ah, Mama Nakamura is sick. That must be why she's not in the picture anymore.
Mama Nakamura heals Hiro. Aww...
And then Mama Nakamura dies. Why does she die? I think I missed that.

Part IV
The final issue of 9th Wonders.
More comic meta. Heh.
Ah, the Nakamura's were living in this building.
Daddy Petrelli shows up to ruin everything. And now he takes Hiro's powers.
Wait, Daddy Petrelli can just send people to different points in space and time without going there himself?
And Hiro's left clinging to a flag pole. That should be interesting.
So, wait did all this meddling in the past change the way things are in the present or just make sure that things are the way they are now, cause I'm not sure it makes any sense.

Coda
Wait, The Haitian can send people to sleep like that? Did we know this?
Dude, Peter. If you're going to point a gun at your Dad, shoot right away, don't hesitate for God's sake.
So I guess we get our answer. The Haitian trumps Daddy Petrelli.
And Daddy Petrelli is not Sylar's dad. Although could Mama Petrelli still be his mom?
And Daddy Petrelli is dead. Or is he?

Oh, good. She's trusting him... and now she's meddling with causality. Noah is gonna figure it out from what she's saying.... And he's got it: he totally knows. You could say you've met... She believes him. I'll bet the healing takes an equivalent out of her. Well he WOULD tell you, but..... Let's see what happens...Oh, poor poor Hiro... so sad to see the awareness coming back into his eyes. Oh, I love him so much. He's breaking my heart with his earnest desire to be a true hero, a fighter for the light. CRAP! it's a process... And it will kill her... yep. Oh, poor poor Hiro.. Ohh, that light stuff was the catalyst, which Mama Nakamura gave to Hiro, in the process killling her. And then Daddy Petrelli took it from Hiro, which oddly enough didn't kill Hiro. And it's still not clear exactly what the catalyst is and how it works. Perhaps its better if they don't try to explain it.

if all that's happening is an injection, did they REALLY need to send creepy momo in to be the one to do it and creep the person out? really? Good point. But maybe it's about making sure that the actor did something in this episode.
