cake?
As promised, another picspam. This time it's all about Volume One, H.R.G. For more information concerning Bennet's season one history, you can find detailed descriptions here.
And some bio from Heroes Wiki and Wikipedia (oh yeah, we can totally trust it.)
To most of the world, Noah Bennet seems like a typical, if slightly geeky, suburbanite father. His loyalty to his family and his loyalty to his profession are frequently at odds. While it's clear that he loves Claire very much and would do anything to protect her, his methods indicate a level of ruthlessness that conflicts with his genuinely caring nature. For example, while he seems to initially show real concern for Isaac's well being and rehabilitation, he does not hesitate to have Eden use her persuasive powers to make Isaac use heroin again when he believes he needs to make use of Isaac's precognitive abilities. Similarly, while his use of the Haitian's memory modifying ability on Brody seems somewhat restrained given his intense anger at the boy, the casual use of the same ability on Zach and even his own family shows that his dedication to his job-and to keeping Claire safe-knows no limits. He does seem to possess his own moral code, though, as his intense reactions to Sylar's murders and Eden's father's callousness attest. According to his driver's license, his previous address is 9 Juniper Lane, Odessa, Texas. Noah Bennet speaks Japanese and also appears to speak at least a limited amount of Russian. Although he does not possess any powers, he is perhaps the most feared man in the series. His extensive experience in dealing with beings with superpowers allows him to be able to handle them effectively. Also, he displays considerable prowess in hand-to-hand combat and marksmanship.

Now, on to the good stuff, screencap time!
"I'm just a paper salesman."
Noah Bennet: A Volume I Retrospective
"Genesis"
I don't recall what I thought of Bennet the moment I first saw him. I think I thought he was a bad guy, or that he was Sylar, or something like that. But then, it was revealed that he was the cheerleader's dad! Ah! Dual life much? And yeah, he was the hot DILF with the glasses from then on.
"Don't Look Back"
"One Giant Leap"
"Collision"
Just gotta point out, Jack totally works the white v-neck (For example:)
I think I remember thinkin', "Oh, so he's a good guy, really nice dad, oh, he's really touchy feely with his daughter, oh. They sorta kissed. Oh. This is a bit awkward. Oh, he's hot.
"Mr. Bennet, I love your glasses!" Jeez, even the slutty girls at his daughter's highschool's checkin' him out.
Collision. Oh man. Bennet. He was a big sketchball. Very smurflike.
"Hiros"
"Better Halves"
"Nothing to Hide"
The moment in the hospital, when HRG totally harrased Brody and went all B.A. on his ass, was when I came to realize that, oh. This guy is BATMAN.
And... his blue eyes are very evident in the first row. Well done Mr. Coleman.
Better Halves. Bennet. So cute eavesdropping, learning that someone could manipulate time saying, "Oh, that's cool." Made me want to just jump into my TV and take him.
HRG IS OFFICIALLY A BADASS.
"Seven Minutes to Midnight"
"Homecoming"
H.R.G. is the hottest paper salesman ever. Um, row two, cap one? Please step into my bedroom. Now.
Homecoming. OMG. That episode was intense.
"Six Months Ago"
"Fallout"
GABRIEL!!?!?!! When did you get here?
Bennet + Map = OTP
Fallout. Peter is TOTALLY HRG'S hero too, Claire. HRG ships PAIRE, I just know it!
"Godsend"
"The Fix"
"Distractions"
Yes. The teambadass scenes.
When the 'Hatian Sensation That's Sweepin' the Nation' had to erase Sandra's memories again, it just broke my little heart. How did Bennet and Sandra meet anyway? Origin story please!
"Run!"
"Unexpected"
I wanted HRG to be Claire's biological father posing as her adoptive father in order to conceal a power of his own, but Mr. Kring said no, and made Flying Man the cheerleaders bio-dad instead. 'S'ok. Daddy Bear can kick Bio-dad's Peter Pan ass anyday.
HRG CLAUDE REUNION! BFFLS FOR LIFE! DRINKIN' BUDDIES! BEATLES SING ALONGS IN THE COMPANY CAR!
We all know that Bennet and Claude did that, right?
"That one, kickass, episode..."
"... Company Man."
People = Teacups.
Thank you for teaching me that, Bennet.
OMG HOW DILFY IS HE IN LAST ROW AH SPAZZ.
Yes folks, Company Man is this awesome, it deserves more that one set.
I love the facebumps. I love the face bumps. I love thee.
Am I the only one that cracks up when they tell Bennet to leave the exploding house and he's all like, "NO!!"
Some more of the greatness. This episode really opened my eyes about HRG's character. I just thought he was a hot, four eyed, daddy asshole/badass, who collected special people. Turns out, he's just a solider/family man.
MORALLY. GREY. DORK.
"Company Man continued..."
"Parasite"
".07%"
Don't deny it. I know that you cried at the end of "Company Man."
Open-shirt, bare chest HRG. SHOUTOUT TO DYNASTY FANS! I believe they where alluding to that, yes?
Candice, you little... HRG attracts all the young women, I swear... Eden, Candice, Elle... me.
"Five Years Gone"
"The Hard Part"
"Landslide"
5YG was just another one of those kickass episodes. I loved how HRG was doing the opposite of what he had done in the past. Protecting all the EHumans! New pair of glasses. New chick. Add Hana to that list, will ya? Yep, she totally sent inappropriate text messages to Bennet with her 'powers'. Way to get killed Bennet. Way to get killed...
Aw. BEARHUG!
Last row, last cap. Blue eyed dilf!
"How to Stop An Exploding Man"
"Call me Noah."
What were your reactions to that peoples?
Of course, HRG revealed it to Peter (aka his secret closet hero)
It's so fitting! Kinda like Gabriel. Two very nice guy sounding names. Only the badass can pull them off.
HRG and his Infinity gun = otp.
Yay! Daddy/Daughter moment to wrap up the volume.
screencaps from half_stack. holler if you want a scene capped! I'll try to enhance the color and brightness for you :)
