What Aunt Zelda Thinks: Heroes Season 2, Episode 7 SPOILERS!

(Recently I was put on the meanest list on a ‘nicest and meanest users on IMDb’ which shocked me. I come off as mean because I run into so many homophobes and people who call slashers horny nutters. I apologize to anyone I offended.)

 

 

Happy belated Guy Fawkes Day, all!

This episode ROCKED MY MISMATCHED SOCKS! It’s definitely the best episode of Season 2 so far … despite the absence of Sylar … which I didn’t even realize until the end …

 

*the things I scribble down last night while watching*

 

Last Week: plane ticket, Montreal, Adam Monroe, next year is the Appocolypse, freaky-evil-dream-Matt-daddy, Bob is gonna die, Nessica is Mohinder’s partner, Kensai double-crossed Hiro, stupid West, HRG went SCARY EVIL!

 

Awww, poor Sarkie … his girlfriend chose HIRO over HIM. (Seriously, what’s up with that? I mean, Hiro is sweet and nice and noble, but so was Kensai for a while. And given the choice between Hiro and Good!Kensai I’d pick Kensai. That accent just slays me, and if HE loved ME I’d do practically whatever he wanted.)

 

Utto, the evil paintings of DOOM (Kaito-Death, Nessica-Wall-Bash, Mohinder-With-Gun-and-bandaged-nose, hand-with-vial, HRG-Death-and-Claire-kissage, Kensai-Hiro-Fight, and Peter-in-the-future. One seems to be missing. Goddamnit …) TOLD YOU it was MOHINDER with the gun! Idiots … everyone seemed to think it was PETER or SYLAR … was everyone BLIND last week?!

 

Trouble at the Company … they could be Daleks: E-vac-u-ate! Ex-ter-min-ate! Ex-po-si-ate!

 

Pigeon sighting! *counts these things in hopes that Claude will return* Utto, Appocolypse Now … again … some more … in the Heroes-verse. At least in FYG Peter was hot and badass and not dragging around an annoying girlfriend …

 

I love that ecomagination.org commercial with the sea wind in a jar … it’s so cute …

 

Waffles! Ooo, awesome place to put the title! Lyle? Who’s Lyle? Oh yeah …

Go away annoying-West! Eurgh! Stop kissing and endangering your family, Claire!

 

Nathan has sexy hair.

Skeevy Bob, please recount the past with amazing flashbacks NOW! That’s the only reason we tolerate you ElderHeroes (TM TWOP)! Yeah, I’m a flashback whore, why do you ask?

Matt, you idiot … why can’t these people CONTROL their powers?! SYLAR can! 

 

Yaeko’s so cool …

“Why is everything purple?” hee! Best line of this episode!

 

*sarcastic* Oh noes! Caitlin’s gonna be deported into a freaky post-apocalyptic/present-apocalyptic world! Painting moment! *is bored* Where are Mohinder are Sylar? …

 

Hee, I should watch ‘Scrubs’ … “A whale is in trouble, I have to go.”

 

SAVE MOLLY! She’s trapped in a nightmare with cockroaches and falling helixes and Sylar … goddamnit, pull her out already!

“Bob is morally gray at best.” and “Morally un-gray?” heh, I love it when they say morally gray … WHERE IS CLAUDE?!

The First makes an appearance on Heroes *grins* Wait … don’t you DARE hurt Mohinder!

“So un-complicate it.” hee! Here here! Adam sounds intriguing …

“Peter is alive.” Duh … he’s one of the main characters and has a legion of fangirls, like he was EVER gonna die …

 

Oooo! Angela!

“You are the most powerful of us all.” Sylar is WAY more powerful than Peter! As proved time and time again, HE gets control over his MANY powers almost instantly, whereas everyone else has ONE power for SEVERAL MONTHS and STILL DON’T HAVE FRAKIN’ CONTROL!

Oh god, I’m dizzy … is that Angela’s power? Memory-restoration? Opposite-Haitian? Or did Peter just read her mind?

 

I love that Archer Farms commercial.

 

Mr. Muggles is the Mastermind of it all … oh my! This is one step past their sky-snogging … oh sweet! West is gone at last! THANK YOU HRG!

 

Hiro, just admit you love Kensai already … this goes past Hero-worship …

 

Oooo, Mohinder down! *sends in the fangirl brigade, who fix him up and send him to Sylar*

 

*dances with explosive joy* Finally! The katanas are put to good use! I LOVE SWORD FIGHTS! Kensai has great dialog … I miss the writers already …

Oh my god! He blew up! What about Sark’s pretty face?!

Wait … is Adam Sark?

 

Jesus, Nathan practically screaming ‘Give me back my boyfriend … I mean brother’ and I HATE Petrellicest …

 

Utto, 5 paintings have come true: Kaito Death, Niki Bashing the Wall, Peter in the Future, Kensai-Hiro Fight, and I THINK the vial one … one painting is still missing …

 

Oh my god, Matt got badass! Everyone’s FINALLY GETTING SOME FRAKIN’ CONTROL!

Awwww, Molly’s awake!

 

Caitlin’s stuck in the twisted future and Peter is stuck in the equally twisted now *slashers reveng’d* Ok, I admit, Caitlin was beginning to grow on me in a way 12 episodes of Simone never managed, and she certainly doesn’t deserve being stuck in a future that equally certain death, but perhaps the show is trying to tell us that Time Travelers shouldn’t fall for redheads (Caitlin and Charlie.)

 

Yes! Hiro = Kensai! Just like we all thought all those months ago!

*wibbles* Oh dear, my eyes got a bit wet at the Hiro-Yaeko separation. Hiro deserves to live happily ever after with a princess …

 

Mohinder has a bandaged nose … utto … oh, and Nikki might die … how … sad?

 

“We saved the world!” You’ve gotta save it AGAIN! And next season, for the THIRD TIME!

 

NO!!! No gun! Don’t Claire-nap! (The heroes tend to get annoyed when Claire is in danger.) Hee, there are fingerprints, just like TWoP said. No! Don’t tell Skeevy Bob! Now he has blackmail! Stupid Mohinder! Don’t pick up the gun! NOOOOOOoooooooo!

 

Signature HRG camera shot. I love those so very much … Mohinder CAN’T shoot HRG! It would be all kinds of wrong and the fangirls would be torn between avenging HRG and drooling over Badass!Mohinder …

Claire’s boyfriend is DANGEROUS and got her to do something that could have compromised her identity! THANK YOU VOICE OF REASON, NOAH!!!

“Where were you, out abducting people?!” hee … second best line! Claire you IDIOT, you’re going to be kidnapped by a pretty geneticist … which won’t be as fun as it sounds …

 

*laughs hysterically* Kensai = Adam. I was RIGHT! Muhahahaahahahaahaaaha … *scares cat* David Anders is so HOT … unfortunately the writers’ strike can’t do anything about that …

 

Next Week: Apparently all our questions about the season 1 finale will be answered, mostly the stuff to do with Peter. I’m hoping this involves some smacking around of the annoying empath. Also stuff to do with Sexy Sark/Kensai/Adam (need to find him a name …) Also !SYLAR! whose absence this week was the only mar on the best episode so of Season 2 (at this date.) Apparently ‘Elle’ is pronounced ‘El-’ not ‘El-eeee’ like I thought. I’m prepared to call her ‘El Diablo’ if Kristen Bell doesn’t stop this ridiculous ‘Maya + Sylar = Mylar’ comments …

 

(Btw, seen the graphic novel yet?! I squeaked and hugged my friend. It’s REALLY tragic! Nothing to do with Caitlin thank god …)

"...but perhaps the show is trying to tell us that Time Travelers shouldn’t fall for redheads (Caitlin and Charlie.)"

ROFLMFAO.

Seriously!

HEY, if you like doing these episode posts, you should check out [livejournal.com profile] heroes_meta!

Everyone lovingly snarks about the show, and when you make posts like these, you just have to put "Heroes_meta" in the tag or the title. The mods pick and choose from the funniest things said about that episode in everyone's blogs.

Just something you might be interested in!

I love the snark. ^__^

Hey! Haven't seen you about lately! *waves*
Hmmmm ... so I just have to add 'heroes_meta' to the tag of all my funky recaps and then someone might choose quotes from me? That sounds interesting ... *joins that community* Apparently I have to add 'heroes_meta' to my intrests too ... *works on that*

I love the snark. ^__^
Hee, I love it when I'm snarky, as it happens so rarely ... sometimes I dream of recapping for TWoP ...

Oi! *pouts* I like Peter! I like Sylar too, but be nice to my cute dumb empath! :)

“You are the most powerful of us all.” Sylar is WAY more powerful than Peter! As proved time and time again, HE gets control over his MANY powers almost instantly, whereas everyone else has ONE power for SEVERAL MONTHS and STILL DON’T HAVE FRAKIN’ CONTROL!

That's because that's what Sylar's ability is -- he intuitively knows how things work. Other people have to work at learning control, just like they do with any other skill. He gets a mental shortcut to it :)

I think it works out more along the lines of Peter's the most powerful in raw power, and Sylar's got more control. Sylar also can't take more than one ability at a time, while Peter could absorb a whole heap if he was around enough people.

Hee, I thought on I said 'Oi!' ... sorry, but the only times I like Peter are when he's in FYG or being kicked around by Claude.

I think it works out more along the lines of Peter's the most powerful in raw power, and Sylar's got more control. Sylar also can't take more than one ability at a time, while Peter could absorb a whole heap if he was around enough people.
Yeah, but if Peter absorbed a 'whole heap' he'd probably explode. By being near Sylar, Nessica, DL, Molly, and Matt he then had to blow up. Still sayin' Sylar's more powerful ...
