I liekd it better than last weeks
at least i found out what a 619 is. my little brothers wouldn't stop talking about this rey mysterio fellah
they even named our dog after him!
8/10 I liked it but I did miss Hiro and Peter.
I liked the interactions between Parkman/Mrs. Petrelli and also between Parkman/Mohinder. Also interesting to see more of the 12 and finding out that Bob and Parkman's father are also part of that 'club' and also finding out who Parkman's dad is.... interesting.
I also liked that Nathan was in it more and showing more of his scared face that hopefully they will explore more - is that what he really looks like? Did he have surgery? Is that what his soul looks like? - Should be interesting to see what it all comes down to. I like that he's not all uptight like last season. Let's Adrian explore more with the character.
I didn't like Micah's family at first - but I'm starting to like them now. Interesting bunch.
And Sylar - how can you not love that character. Oh golly.... Sylar's caught himself a few more 'heroes' to play with.... better watch himself though - since these two are nothing to play around with.......

9 I agree with Ginx ,if Peter and Hiro was in it it would have been a 10 :\
I knew Bob was bad from the start .

The Molly scenes were stupendous, I was blown away.
I can't get over how much I like the flying scenes.
Nathan's face in the mirror :eek: what's up with that?
The group photo, Parkman's dad?
So much to absorb, I must watch it again (and again and again..).

8/10 -- I liked that all the plots are finally moving forward.

9/10, we're definitely getting past the buildup and moving on to forward momentum. Sylar was in top form. Can't way to see him try to eat The Wonder Twins' brains, I doubt he'll be very successful at it. I was sad to see no Hiro, and I kind of wanted West to see who Claire's Dad was already. Other than that, great episode, as usual.

I 2nd that. I didn't like the fact that Peter, Hiro, and Nikki were not in it, but I think we are going to get a lot of Peter next week.
I did like where the Sylar plot is going with the wonder twins. Sylar is devilish and it's great that he is back to his evil ways.
The new girls powers are kind of cool. A little too much of her too soon though.
I'm kind of digging the West character a little better. Claire really is the star of the show IMO. She has been in every episode now for sure. Where as Hiro had been in everyone if I' not mistaking. I'm also glad she is going back to being a cheerleader. I wonder how she is ever going to explain West to Noah though?
HRG......humm wonder what he's up too? Finally him and the Hatian are back in black so to speak.
Although I gave it a 9 and would have really liked it if Hiro and Peter would have been in it.
I feel like it might be a great season.

Oh I loved it!!! I was going to give it a 10 but it's a 9/10. Oh so exciting. I loved it.

I had to give it a 9 because i think it's been prolly the best episode so far.
Things i liked:
1. Sylar meeting up with the Twins
2. Hoping Monica's power is what i think it is.
3. Seeing the Twelve and finding out about Matt's dad.
4. Not having the stupid Kensei story.
Things i didn't like:
1. Seeing another dang cockroach.
2. Not being able to see what's going on with Peter.
3. That Matt made Molly find his dad and now has her trapped in her own mind or whatever.
4. Seeing the mistrust building up again between HRG and Claire.
Things i wonder bout:
1. I suppose Matt's dad has some kind of psychic ability though what i'm not sure...unless he's simply a lot stronger one than Matt which i'd hate cause i want to see different powers.
2. I seriously hope Sylar doesn't get the chance to take the Twins powers.
3. What's with Nathan and his crazy Two-Face moments.
4. What's with Kristin Bells (think thats right name) new character.

I give it a nine.
Things I liked:
Matt and Mohinder "parenting" and
fighting.
(...Dangit, that sounds so slashy!!
They're not a couple, okay, people?!)
We finally know who the nightmare
man is! Yay!
No boring Hiro story this week.
(I love him, but his story has been
a little boring.)
Things I didn't like:
Molly screaming her head off!
(My family is trying to sleep
and all I wanna do is watch Heroes,
but it's hard to do that when the
characters start screaming at nine at night.):(
Too much focus on Monica. Plus her
power is lame.
Molly went into shock. Noo!
*cries* Stupid Matt and his "smart" ideas!
(I like Molly.)
Sylar and the twins!
*dances*
Enough with the cockroaches!
So-so:
Claire/West. Eh, it's sweet I guess.
I mean, I think I liked the father/daughter
relationship more then I like the shipping or West
individually. (He's starting to get clingy with Caire
and that's annoying.)
No Peter this week.
I kinda like his story thus far, but I'm not
intirely sad that he was a no show.
(Besides, that means Mohinder gets
a little more screentime.)

Alright. So I cave and gave this one a 10 for the mere fact that Sylar is found by the Life and Death twins. The look in Sylar's eyes when he starts piecing the two together is pure ambition and evil and it is nice to have Sylar back even though he appears to be "neutered".
The revelation of Matt's father was unexpected. Molly continues to freak me out when she sees the Nightmare and gets all freaky. She looks like something out of a nightmare psycho flick when she wigs out and I think that is a freaky cool touch.
It's good to see Nathan helping out and shaven now. I really like how it is still not clear where he stands on everything. The next episode looks good and I can't wait to see it.

I found Parkman's use of Molly quite disturbing.
Parkman is someone that tends to take shortcuts instead of 'working for it" and even with his powers, he doesn't seem to have tested their limits or at least try to see if he can do anythign else other than read "casual thoughts".
In short, Tubby the wonder dog is getting on my gluteus maximus !

Love it.I gave it a 9....It was great episode.Alot of things got explained.I think Noah & Claire are in danger.West can not be trusted.Sylar with twins,it is going to be very interesting.The nightmare guy turned out to be Matt's father?What do think is going on with Nathan?Did he get Nikki-Jessica's power?He's an absorber like his brother now.I guess the explosion must have transfered their powers.

Well....at least things are getting thrown into motion. I'm getting pretty excited.
The Good
~Matt and Nathan team. That whole scene where the put some pieces together and reveal some things but the whole sense of mistrust was really great. (plus i feel like I get why matt left since the baby wasn't his...not necessarily the best reason...but better than abandoning his own family)
~Micah....I love that kid. Plus I was intrigued by that move he made with his cousin. It was a strange use/extension of his power to people. Reminded me just a touch of Sylar but without all the evil power-hungryness
~Sylar....reason 897 why you don't pick up hitchhikers :P I like having him interact with the twins (gives more progress than just weepy girl and overprotect boy for their storyline) Plus call me a romantic border-line fangirl shipper....but I want to put down some money early that there will be something with him and Maya. At best they could have him be a kind of anti-hero....and she just might bring out a good (ish :P) side of him
~Molly....man that girl has a set of lungs. Finding the bad mr. parkman (if anyone has a fun shorthand or generally better description for him please let me know) was maturity stronger than most I'd see (between her and micah these kids are insane)
The Bad
~Teenage romance....it's just....ew. I mean don't get me wrong...I totally see flying as a turn-on. I just don't like West at all. Not letting Clare fall was a nice move in my eyes and he gets brownie points for that. But I still don't trust him and still generally think he's a jerk. (Most def not worth lying to HRG about)
Final score....8/10

What four people voted 1? I gave it a ten, because even the things I didn't particularly like are very interesting aspects. And can certainly develop into completely unexpected but spectacular surprises. And even without Hiro and Peter, I can't complain. This is an ensemble show.

The best out of the 4 episodes. Would give 10, but due the lack of Peter gets 9 :D

I gave it a 9, because it would have to be phenomenol to get a 10, and that only ever happens a few times on any show.
What I liked:
Claire flying with West - beautiful.
Parkman and Mohinder playing "My Two Dads" with Molly.
Parkman finding out that his dad is Nightmare Man.
The life and death twins. I think the girl's power of death is especially cool.
Sylar being picked up by the twins.
Nathan and his beard. Am I the only one that likes his beard? So sad he shaved it off. But yeah, I know, shaving the beard is symbolic in some way.
Nathan and Parkman working together.
Mica using his powers.
Monica - her just getting up and doing the wrestling move on that punk was great. She was boring me at first but when I realised what her power was I was like "cool"
No kensei storyline, which like alot of other fans, I can't stand. Such a pity Hiro is stuck with that.
What I didn't like:
No Nikki, again.
General thoughts? - God, I love this show!!!
