Landslide 5/14/07

Greatest omg moments were HRG pulling the trigger after one great line and the shock of watching DL stuff his hand into Linderman's brain. Also was I the only one who thought that we should have seen "the girl" being the tracking system? Once I connected the dots, I wondered why that never occurred to me before! But it doesn't explain how they were tracking before they found her, since she was only found after Matt saved her. Unless she was in some kind of Linderman protection program...

Also was anyone pissed off that Peter just LET the FBI take Ted! Why didn't he make all of them invisible! Or at least stop the FBI with one of his many powers! I mean he knew Sylar was after them, how could he not put two and two together!

When Hiro and his Dad were in the room training, all I was thinking of was DBZ's Hyperbolic chamber. I thought Hiro froze time but I guess not because time kept going at normal pace, he just learned fast. I thought that was kind of strange.

Can't wait for season finale!!

Do you think Linderman will be able to heal himself? And who else thinks Candice must be a fatty in her real form from the comments she made? How awesome would that be-eat whatever the hell you want, just manipulate everyone's perception into seeing you as a hottie!

I thought that was pretty cool, but think of the amount of energy and concentration that must take. It would be funny if she slipped every so often and we got to see a bit of the real Candice.

Will anyone be sad if D.L. dies? I really wanted to like that storyline but it started getting so annoying. Maybe Jessica/Niki will be more interesting without D.L.

If/when Sylar blows up New York, will he die? If he does, does he know he will? Is it a suicide mission or does he think he's enough of a super hero to survive a nuclear blast? I'm still a little confused about the "who's going to blow up NY?" story.

I think I'm one of the few Heroes fans who's looking forward to the Origins series.

I thought this was a pretty good episode but it felt a little like they were trying to cram too much into it. It seemed jumpy or disconnected or something (kinda like the way I'm writing right now!).

PS: How cute was little Hayden with her giant, man-sized gun?

[chooch850]

This episode sucked.

[Firecat]

This episode sucked.

It didn't have the action or intensity that I was expecting, but it served its purpose. I really think they should have just had this and the finale back to back. A 2 hour season finale would have worked out perfectly.

Yup, Peter did kind of drop the ball on this one. He knew Sylar was out there, and he heard him say something about using Ted's past. He should have tried to get him out....or at least follow the truck.

*Edit*

Made a mistake, next week will be 2 hours...I think.

Seemed like a lot of killing this episode - but I didn't like how I thought DL was dead, and then they showed him in the preview for next week. I also wonder if Linderman can heal himself, I guess we'll have to wait and see. They did cram a lot of info into this episode, but I can't wait until next week, I feel like a lot of questions will be answered, especially if they plan to start a new storyline next season.

PS - I am also looking forward to Origins.

Don't confuse Future Kick-Ass Peter with Present Just Running On Instinct Peter.

I'm not so sure that Linderman will be able to heal himself, as I believe his power is to heal others. Also, his brain was entirely removed from his head--i think even Claire couldn't heal herself from that one, unless the brain was put back into her head. So... looks like Linderman might be dead? If he's dead, what does that do to the whole "heal the world" plan? (PS I just had some mental imagery of all our Heroes holding hands and singing "heal the world".. hehe)

Anyway, I thought this episode was pretty good. What is hero's father's power, to teach VERY VERY quickly? He should have been a high school teacher or worked with retarded kids or something!

Oh also someone was asking about how they tracked the heroes before the "Walker" system, that's easy. Remember they were using the Tag and Release system before. They'd locate a hero, implant a thing in their neck and then track them that way. After they found Molly Walker, they didn't need this anymore.

Oh and as for Candice, that is sweet that she can just do whatever the hell she wants and not care how she really looks! Remember when she was the black lady, she said to Micah "How do you know this isn't the real me?" you think that might have actually been the real her?? :) And if so, why wouldn't she just turn herself into a hot black girl, since she is black? Well.. I guess that's basically irrelevant :P

The last three episodes were designed to fit together, last week being act 1, this week act 2, and next week act 3. I liked this episode. I think that Peter let Ted go because he thought that the FBI would be able to protect him and that would stop the bomb from going off. Mohinder kinda went badass when he knocked out Matt and pulled the gun on HRG. I like that Nikki/Jessica seem to be able to control the power and switch effortlessly between the two. I also loved when DL popped up and ripped out Lindermans brain. I felt so bad for Micah when he was done "fixing" the computers he looked so wipped out. I so want Candace's power of making myself look totally hot - that is an awesome super power! How come Hiro never stepped out to tell his friend Ando that he was getting sword training and he was going to save the world - that made no sense to me. Glad though Hiros dad is a good guy!

Did you get your hopes up? :)

Maybe he's able to push bullets out easily? Didn't he heal quickly when Jessica shot him earlier in the season?

I heart HRG.

Oh man I would pay BIG for that. Funny that Hiro had his Rocky montage and learned to be a badass in ten minutes. And Ando went to fight Sylar on his own? I'm so sure. Was he kidnapped? The guy at the blade shop was a little fishy. My guess is the dad had him taken back to Japan or something. And why do Sylar's eyebrows look like caterpillars? Maybe he'll kill a Hero with awesome waxing abilities and make it all ok, but right now I scrunch my face every time they show him.

Also, down with Mama Petrelli! And when did Rena Sofer get so sassy?

They showed Ando at the end of the episode, with a sword and map in hand...on his way to doom. :sad:

Too much badassery in this episode! I had to watch the Linderman brain-drain twice - that was just too damn awesome!

I didn't see the preview, but what abut this: DL killed Linderman by hijacking his brain basically (which was awesome), Sylar gets his powers by hijacking brains, therefore could DL now become a "healer?" Hmmm??

I don't think DL removed Linderman's brain; I think he just squeezed it, which is why Linderman's eyes bled like that.

Doesn't Sylar get the powers by eating the brain? I thought that was confirmed somewhere. I can't remember. Anyone have any idea about that?

Doesn't Sylar get the powers by eating the brain? I thought that was confirmed somewhere. I can't remember. Anyone have any idea about that?

I think there is still some debate over whether or not he eats the brain. I tend to think that he does with all is 'hunger' talk, but then again they always show him w/ bloody hands, but no blood on his face:confused:

I read somewhere that the writers originally confirmed the brain eating with a scene of Sylar actually doing it, but it was taken out b/c it looked silly.

However, in a recent episode, Molly said that the boogeyman (sylar) stares into your soul and then eats your brain. Perhaps she saw this happen to her parents?

Can't wait to see how it all ends. My only complaint: I wish we had more than one episode featuring Peter as a badass mofo. Good god was he hot!!!

Amen! (And I don't even LIKE Peter!)
