Sylar is now painting with a brush instead of finger, using his left hand.

Haha, I don't know why, but seeing Noah and Mohinder pull and hide Thompson's body made me smile. And for some reason, I'm surprised that Mohinder seems super fine doing it, as if he was used to do that, while we know he never did that before. He only cares about Molly's safety as if the dead body was not there, it seems a little out of character in my opinion.

Aww, I liked how Peter looked at Claire after Noah told him on the phone "Whatever you do, you keep Claire safe. Understand?"

I don't get how Peter was able to call Nathan if Claire was sitting in the car in the seat next to him. She would have seen/hear him do it...

Maybe Peter and Claire stopped somewhere for gas and he went to the bathroom to call Nathan? I dunno.

But I agree about them hiding Thompson's body. I mean, why bother? There's obviously security cameras everywhere. It's amazing no one responded to it. Maybe they were all busy scrambling after Linderman.

It's been so long since I've watched season 1, that I did not remember the conversation between Peter and Nathan ( ... )

Matt is so brave, even after Noah warned him that Sylar would kill him.

True, but Matt has already seen that Sylar can survive having bullets shot at him. So ... not real wise. Though in Matt's defense, Sylar did look thoroughly distracted.

I never thought of this before, but why the Hell didn't Linderman healed Mr Deveaux?!?

Good question! And in my fanon, it's because Deveaux and Linderman hated each other. Deveaux = Good; Linderman = Evil; and they were so divided on philosophical lines that when Linderman heard Deveaux was dying, his response was, "Good." But that's all fanon.

Yeah, but a very creepy family, (except for Peter) willing to sacrifice millions of people. So, of course, her way out is the window. lol I did not see that one coming the first time I've watched, that was a great use of her ability from the writers.

Yeah, I'd forgotten how she got away from them, so it was surprising to me even in rewatch.

Yeah, it makes sense, it's most likely the reason why Linderman did not heal Mr. Deveaux.

It's funny how Noah then tells Peter he'll shoot him if he can't stop himself from exploding. Peter seemed relieved, then he even thanks him. They were both so calm, as if talking about something not at all important. lol

That *was* really funny. It's a rare person who thanks you for offering to kill them.

Peter gets Niki's strenght, then goes back to punch Sylar, and I'm amused at how he just laugh. Naughty Sylar likes it rough. *And then Peter punched me in the face over and over. It was awesome!* lolI think it's clear that he's supposed to have gotten her strength. But then he follows it up by punching a non-regenerative Sylar in the face several times. I can't watch that without thinking that normal human strength would result in broken facial bones which doesn't happen, and so I can't buy that Peter's hitting him harder than normal. Although I did read a fanfic that posited that Sylar was using his telekinesis to absorb and deflect most of Peter's swing, so instead of being pulped, he was just being pushed around a little - ( ... )

I think I like that explanation, as it's the only one that makes sense

Ooh, I really like that theory as well, if makes perfect sense!

I'm glad you loved my comments, I enjoyed reading yours too :D Are we going to rewatch Season 2, then 3 and 4 as well? lol

Are you volunteering to host it? Someone would need to post the comment thread each week and if you elect to do any advertising, that, too. I believe I promised means2bhuman that I would handle advertising and I fell down completely in that regard.

I think S1 Peter is really bound up in denial and in seeing the world (especially his family) in the way he's been programmed and conditioned to see them; and to no small extent, in the way he wants to see them.

Yeah, I haven't thought about that, but I agree with you, well said.

I can ignore little logic problems like Rene and Claude and the unknown folks in the world by simply saying she's a little girl, with a little girl's worldview, and she doesn't know those people so they don't count.

It really looks like she can only locate people that she knows the name, saw the picture, or something along those lines, since she have to think about them to find them. So yeah, if she is not aware of any of the other "special people" she won't know where they are.

Squash done and in the freezer. Peach cobbler cooking. I ate the nectarines. I'm a little over-full and sugared up from licking pans and 'sampling' things ( ... )

You're making me hungry with your part about your meal. lol

Nathan could fly after her, after she jumps out that window. Just sayin.

LOL True. I guess he did not do it because his mother told him so, and because he did not want to stop the explosion anyway...

I haven't watched Season 2 in ages, but I thought it was another girl that created illusions with Sylar, not Candace. I honestly never paid attention to her, so I don't know for sure. lol I guess I'll watch it no matter if the community keeps going with the seasons. If it's really the same character, it does not make sense.

I *think* it's the same character, but I'd have to rewatch to be sure.
