Yeah, it gets this icon.
As usual, typed while watching; spoilers, possible ranting, yadda yadda yadda.
1. That title isn't very promising...
2. Previously on: Thanksgiving sucks for all. Boy am I glad the Choices gang had a better time!
3. Lydia is telling Samuel she'll keep his secret; Samuel doesn't like the newspapers; Jamie Madrox gets sent to go steal files from Bennet. Who has a Wall of Weird. And blondie asked him out. Ick. Bennet, do you trust her at all? And blondie, that's not actually what he was saying, but maybe you're just trying to be cute? It's not working, btw. And Claire's gonna be SO grounded...
4. Mom, don't be an idiot, YOU caused all of this mess. Oh my -- so I can Haitian people now, eh? Probably the only way I could get that ability.
5. Claire & Gretchen -- oh great, Samuel's there to meet her. Nifty. Samuel trying to give them the 'light' sell. What, does the popcorn act as a 'one ticket, see the whole show' deal? Yeah, Gretchen's got a good idea there -- who knows if Lydia's really showing them the truth or not...
6. Peter & Sylar -- okay, that was kind of low, dude. And damn, all those supplies and stuff... You're disappointed in me? Dude. ...a nailgun? Um. Okay, so I'm having a quiet meltdown instead of the yelling? (And this is very reminiscent of my dream, only the positions were reversed, and there was no torture involved...) Uh... yeah, don't trust that, me.
7. Claire & Gretchen again -- Claire, it's not as great as you think it is, really. And you should be listening to Gretchen.
8. Poor Bennet's not having a good time dealing with his situation. UGH. No, you didn't have something together -- let it stayed buried, please? Can this possibly be more nauseating? Oh good, the bad guys have arrived to save the day. And blondie, that was kind of a slow reaction there. I love the pre-arranged weaponry, but too slow, they're already gone while you were out of the room!
9. Claire & Gretchen -- O_O CLAIRE?! Okay, I get being glad he's free, but hugging him? Srsly? Claire the frog. Uh huh. Samuel, you are SO full of shit.
10. Nathan, do not do this. PLEASE.
11. Oh great, belligerent baseball goon. Samuel's going to get pissed and bury him, or things are going to go really bad here. Claire, don't be an idiot and throw in with them just because the guy was punching Samuel -- he didn't fight back in order to lure you in!
WHO THE HELL HAS THE BRAIN CELL THIS EPISODE?!
12. Me & Nathan - it's the roof I jumped off? I thought we were going to the Deveaux building. Please, Nathan, don't... PLEASE. Nathan... Okay, you son of a bitch, you had better not have just flipped me the bird...
13. Slow story Burn - oh look, the phone's back!
A slight rant while ads are on: WRITERS, HOW HARD IS IT TO REMEMBER YOU SHOT BENNET IN THE FUCKING HEAD AND CLAIRE'S BLOOD BROUGHT HIM BACK FROM THE DEAD. THAT WAS TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY, AND IT HEALED HIM. YOU CAN FIX NATHAN WITHOUT THIS BULLSHIT!
okay, I'm better now.
no, I'm not.
15. Claire is now babysitting Samuel. Who is still telling her half-truths... Ohh, there we go. He wants to be Magneto. Poor Gretchen. Claire, you'd BETTER be back in school on Monday or I don't think Gretchen will be with us long. And who is he really after if not her? Okay, with our dark tv, was that baseball guy in the truck bed? Couldn't really tell.
16. Samuel preaching on the hillside again. They're going to build their own little Genosha there and make their own Homo Superior homeland...
New episodes back on January 4th? Bah! At least it's not as long a wait as it is for new SPN...
