Yeah, I was out there bright and early this morning, as I always am no matter how crappy the choices are, or how likely an exercise in futility my participation ends up being. *sigh* But I never miss this particular party or the chance to bang my head repeatedly into a brick wall; and neither should you because, who knows, one of these days it might actually mean something.
Cynical but ever diligent. ;)
Fannish bullet points.
I don't even want to think about the T-Bag/Bellick part of the episode, much less talk about it. Just. Don't. Period. My gag-reflex is working on overdrive here.
So do you think Sara had changed her mind and was going back to the motel when Kellerman stopped her? Yeah, that's what I think too except, of course, her change of heart came just a second or three too late for her own well-being. Where exactly did she think she was going to go anyway?
Burrows the Senior must hire his back-stabbing minions from the same temp agency Lex Luthor does on Smallville.
I don't like the fact that Mahone is under the thumb of The Company Conspiracy like everyone else on this show, except the cons and idiot ex-prison guards. At least Alex is being blackmailed, though, and is a grudging and unwilling participant. That makes it go down a little better for me. However, his obsession with Michael is still way out of bounds with the part he's supposed to be playing in this little opera. It's a little too personal with WAY too much UST. Come on, guys, why don't you just kiss already? ;D
I miss Haywire! Let's get back to his raft voyage to Holland, please.
I think Claire's creepy father is going to turn out to be a little less creepy, when all is said and done. Maybe he really does just want to protect his daughter. It's looking more and more like that's where his part of the story is headed.
I knew Matt's wife was cheating on him with the cop in the locker room. Dump her ass, Matt, and take up with Clea Duvall - now's your chance!
Seriously, Micah should be a little more traumatized or hysterical with D.L. after that fight with his mom. Until he calls her at the end with his super phone-charging powers, how does Micah know he can trust D.L. when he says he didn't kill Niki/ikiN? I think when you reach into someone's chest and squeeze their heart until it stops, they probably should be dead and Micah's smart enough to figure that out too. I don't know, I just thought the writing was a little silly during this part of the episode, with D.L. being all, like, 'Oh, don't worry about it boy, you know how Mommy and Daddy get when they're fighting to the death. Doesn't mean we don't still love each other, or you." Oy.
Niki's alter ego is named Jessica? Eh, boring, I prefer ikiN. ;)
So I'm guessing this new hero, Radioactive Man, or whatever his name was, may just be the catalyst for the nuclear explosion that is to come.
I hope the ratings don't start to plummet now that Show-Killer Rena Sofer has made her first appearance. *ack*!
I loved that Simone's father shared a flying dream with Peter before he died, and it gave him peace at the end. That's was pretty cool. But what I'd really like to see are the Petrelli Brothers flying together, for real! :)
I fear for Ando. I love his relationship with Hiro so much, and because he has no powers of his own, I just dread the possibility that it might be Ando's possible future death that prompts such a drastic change in Hiro in the future. I hope not, but I could easily see it playing out that way.
