I got the reference (how could I not, I've just been reading through it!), but I decided we needed a new power class.

I don't know if you guys are aware but it seems to have a pretty solid web presence. The character Wireless keeps a blog here. If you start at the bottom there is a link to primatech's website, and one to Mohinders wiki on unlocking evolution. I haven't dug through all of it yet, but it's good stuff.

So my friend convinced me to start watching this show, and I went and watched the first episode on nbc.com and loved it.

Now i'm very pissed off though, because for some reason they decided not to have all of the episodes up to watch online, just the first episode and the most recent few.

Hey, has anyone noticed a continuity problem with episode 20 of Heroes?


[SPOILERS!]









If future Hiro went back in time and successfully saved the cheerlearder, doesn't that mean that Sylar would have not have gained his regen power, and so would have been killed by future Hiro?

That would be true - but Sylar wasn't actually the bomb, was he?

[SPOILERS!]







Peter was actually the bomb, as he said in the episode, and Nathan covered for him. He already had Claire's regeneration powers. Which means that present Hiro is going to actually "retry" to kill Peter and fail, again, sorta.

So in essence, the bomb is actually Hiro's fault, since he was the one who prodded Peter to "save the Cheerleader" and started the entire chain of events.

I didn't think it had anything to do with the bomb, more to do with the fact that future Hiro tries to stab Sylar, but the regen counters it. Hiro never wanted to kill Peter anyway. Also, the bomb was set to go off when Issac painted it, which was before the Future Hiro timewarp. Also, If the cheerleader is saved in the future because of Future Hiro's meddling, why is Future Peter scarred?

[SPOILERS!]





She was AND was not saved by his meddling. Remember, she was killed in the future by Sylar. I loved this last episode because it starts off leading you to believe that they past characters were actually from an alternate timeline and then by the end of the episode you realize that they are, in fact, on the exact same timeline as the future characters, even if none of them realize it. They've changed nothing.

Future Hiro didn't fail to kill Sylar because he could regenerate. Future Sylar couldn't regenerate in the first place, because Claire was still alive in future Hiro's timeline. He's confused somehow.

What's got me thinking is 1: Peter's scar; 2: Why Hiro thought he'd tried to kill Sylar but was wrong about it. Did he slash Peter while he was in the middle of going nuclear and unrecognizable? Is that why Peter's scarred, could he not heal all of the damage because of what was going on? Remember, Peter loses control when he goes nuclear so it's conceivable that he couldn't control his regeneration that well either.

Future Hiro was wrong. They'd always saved the cheerleader. He didn't change anything by going back in time to talk to Peter... because she was saved by then-future Hiro going back to save her. Catch my drift?

Anyway, I'm sure I didn't make any sense just now. I'm a bit out of it.

[SPOILERS!]

We still don't know how Peter got that scar. It could've been because of Hiro, the gash looks straight, but surely Hiro would remember slashing someone across the face, and then seeing the same scar on Peter later. Remember: Hiro thinks Sylar caused the bomb.

I'm thinking the scar might've been a result of Sylar's Cryokinesis - dead cells can't regenerate? Far-fetched, all things considered. Could be a scar Peter refuses to heal as a reminder of what he did that day, being the big empath and all. There was also a graphic novel featuring Hiro and Peter going off on a mission to save Niki, presumably after NY blowup. Don't remember if Peter had the scar then, would answer a few questions - gonna look it up now.

Also, there's still a lot of unanswered questions: How did Peter get Pyrokinesis from Claire's mom? When did Sylar get to D.L., Candice and Nathan? Where's Linderman? Explain Peter's dream. When did Hiro meet a dinosaur?

Final note: remember Isaac, he seemed pretty sure he had figured out once and for all how to beat Sylar. There might be something we're missing...

[SPOILER!]

Posted Sun May 06, 2007 7:38 pm:

[SPOILER!]

Peter already had the scar...

Also, one more for unanswered questions, when did Matt become an asshole? I reckon it's hit job security complex now, how he's trying to please the President so hard and quickly perked up when he was threatened with replacement. Where did that all come in?!
