Another good episode. I enjoyed the Claire stuff and claude and peter stuff. Wish Hiros part was bigger and a bit better. I dont know maybe it was just that hiro and everyone spent the whole show just standing in a garage and didnt really get out or anything. Interesting to see about Hiro and his dads connections and about how they wanted hiro to take over a postion in his fathers company. was pretty cool hiow hiro tricked his dad and sister into letting her take the job so hiro can go on with his life. Claires father is nathan. lots of people figured that out so wasnt a big surprise. i was hoping the clips of his hand was to fool everyone. guess not. Seems like Jessica is full blown and Nikki is stuck in the phantom zone ummm i mean mirror.

I thought it was pretty good, though the Nikki storyline is my least favorite, I did like the part when she broke out and zapped the doctor.
The Claire/Sylar part was the best. How expected that her father is Nathan. Still, it's kind of cool that Peter is her Uncle and he unknowingly saved his niece.

Ok this was a pretty damn good episode. First off, I just got HD so this was a total joy for me. Its a completely diffrent experience For those of you out there with HD ... isn't it great? :D
What a way to start the show, Nikki is still dealing with Jessica and shes about to HULK up. Poor doctor. She was only trying to help, but she wanted Jessica and she got it. And man how powerful is this Linderman? The guy can get serial murder charges dropped and have someone else take the blame. This guys has really got the juice.
As for Claires adoptive mom, is she a complete moron or what? I know shes been mind wiped to hell and back. But for god sakes a strange man was standing in your living room and you start chit chatting with the guy. Anyways Sylar now knows everything there is to know about Claire. From what she looks like, to her friends and probably her favorite food from the info the mom was spilling. So now its only a matter of time before Sylar and Claire have their little showdown. Also cool save by HRG he really maned up on that one. Shame he continues to wipe his wifes mind, its effects are starting to show.
Hiro's part was short tonight, thats ok. Its understandable they're other characters that need fleshing out. Just one question why bring on GT if you're not going to use him? I mean come on... he mostly just stood around staring.
The best parts of tonights episodes were Peter and whats his name. Those to had some really good moments. Hes really trying to get at the core with Peter, wanting him to see that the people he loves were distractions and thats just not the case. Peter just has to focus and feel the people close to him. Take for instance the final scenes Peter was loosing control again, having flashbacks of all the people hes met. Just imagine if and when he does finally learn how to control his powers...hes going to end up the most powerful one of all. But for now a good right cross seems to keep him in check.
Overall I gave it a 8.5

I gave this episode 9. I know some people don't like the Nikki scenes, but personally I think they've gained quite a bit of momentum in the last few episodes. Her character is intriguing, and I think Ali Larter does a wonderful job. Her power is just too awesome not to like ... though deadly as it is.
Loved the Claire scenes, but well ... she is my favorite, so there's little of her storyline I don't like. I liked the Peter and Claude scenes, and how Peter discovered the on/off switch of his power.
Honestly, the Hiro scenes were a little slow. Which is why I gave it a 9. I like Hiro, I liked being given the extra view into his life, his famuly, etc ... but I found myself waiting for the Sylar/Claire/Peter scenes. They made this episode ride well.

I gave it a 9. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. My heart can't handle Sylar on the loose. LOL!
I love Claire's bio mommy! I can't wait to get to know her better.
I wonder if Vanessa is going to be Linderman's hit man now. Perhaps she's going to kill him. I want to know more about the real Vanessa, Nikki's sister. That was a wonderful moment when she was telling Oprah about her. (That shrink looks a bit like Oprah... well the movie version of Oprah.)
I loved Peter gaining access to his powers.
I enjoyed Hiro's sister.
I thought murdurous things about Sylar like "DIE $(%&$# %(#&@* DIE!!!" LOL!
It was very suspenseful. Boy was I glad to see HRG enter with the gun.

loved when HRG entered and shot Sylar, causing him to run away, and then HRG is like, "HE DIES!'

I thought The Episode was Terrific, this is the best Episode yet, my favorite Scene in The Episode is when Mr Bennet shoots at Sylar causing him to run away and Mr Bennet tells that man with him to go after him, and also The Scene where it showed who Claire's Father is, i can' t wait to see Next Weeks Episode it is going to be great.

I knew the scene with the hand and the ring was a ruse. In all other episodes Nathan wears the ring on his Right hand because the left hand has the wedding ring on it. He picks up the phone with his left and it has the big class ring on it, plus his watch on that wrist. Good Job, Heroes...people! Way to fool us.
Look at the trailer caps for next week. The ring is back on the right hand.
Sneaky!!!!
Concerning the episode.... OMG!!! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I love this show because it keeps me interested. Most fav part...Peter getting thrown over the ledge by Claude and discovering that the powers are still with him. I love the Claude character but then again I loved CE in Dr. Who as well.
What an awesome show!!!

Not to split hairs but it's Jessica, not Vanessa. And I agree that she will become the hitman. Or woman. or women. Or people. Damn, political correctness!!!

Absolutely. He became my favorite character of the episode in that moment, just barely bumping Claude Raines down to #2.
Though, my favorite line from the episode was "People...suck."

Did I already say that I fell in love with Invisible man... Claude! When he punched Peter's lights out and said, "That's a start." I think that was my fave part of the episdode. This show needs character to just generally take the piss. :) He's like the Han Solo of the show... kinda...

GREAT episode!
I'm actually getting into the Nikki/Jessica thing, as well, even though she started out being my least favorite arc.
Also, some trivia, and a link... HRGs license is briefly shown when Sylar is taunting him in the cage... With a little freeze frame and capture, I got this:
http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/3584/licensetp7.jpg
that plainly shows... NOTHING.
*sorry if I can't link, the name on the drivers' license is "Bennett" and it's signed "Bennett" (no first name)
At first Sylar covers it, when he's showing us, then he moves it around the glass, showing us all that he's got their address!
