*little late joining* Hey guys! *finds where Claire find the window open*

Why does Heroes make me feel sorry for these men? I liked Noah's learning curve (I won't say arc) in S4. But how many blondes can one guy freaking have? It's a toss up between him and Nathan, seriously.

Yeah, not happy they killed off Danko.

Um...when did lil Hiro, Ando and Kimiko travel to America to visit a carnival? Kaito allowed that?

Loving the self-pep-talk, Hiro.

I will say this once: Samuel was a Sylar clone for a villain. A lot of Sylar's lines are rewritten for Samuel (mainly used on, you got it, Claire). Sam lacked motivation to be a villain. He annoys me. Should have brought Arthur back...

Was it just me or was this (female) cop remarkably bitchy? Claire, too? Their parting "exchange" was...wow.

That was driving me nuts. It think it's supposed to be in Japan but there are all these English signs.

Yeah. I'd like to know how you can move a caravan of trailers and a Ferris Wheel across an ocean. That's got to be within a carnival's budget, I'm sure (sarcasm, there).

It's like the freaking diner. They're trying to cut corners by reusing sets again and it SO obvious.

Yay a female police person. Shoddy investigation. I hate the police.

Kimiko has every reason to not like Ando. Are they seriously saying she doesn't know about abilities? At all? ::sigh::

And a young Samuel, who knows about abilities. Which I suppose he would ... Oh wait, yeah, this is future Samuel, transported to the past. The 'yatta' is poorly done. I like consistency in my canon (and fic), and the same for catch-phrases, but repeating them to no point is idiotic and annoying.

Samuel is some kind of villain ,but here it's unclear that what he's doing is villainous.

And ... the creepy Kimiko/Ando thing.

Tracy is really different from Niki and Jessica. I wish ... Oh well.

Maybe its the worn off nail polish or the bad space invasion combined with heavy breathing, but I thought Samuel was def being evil. Tempting Hiro down the path to the dark side. Mirroring Sylar doing that with Matt.

The universe should blow up over the unlikely hood that Kimiko and Ando could make a relationship work. Its the biggest paradox ever. :hate hate hate:

And what I hate the most, is that it makes Ando boring. And Kamiko stupid.

x_x_igorina_x_x June 3 2012, 23:20:38 UTC

It's creepy when Nathans face moves.

Love the absent minded use of Sylar's powers and the sudden image of Sylar in front of the mirror.

Baby Matt looks so petrified at first and then he is creepily calm. I'm more amused by Baby Matt playing with Sylar's collar than I probably should be.

The baby's mood swings to calm suddenly make sense. Sylar didn't want him crying during his monologue.

So happy for Sandra. Feel bad for Noah but Sandra deserves to move on.

game_byrd June 4 2012, 01:17:10 UTC

I'm pretty sure the baby isn't actually in Sylar's arms, so its moods are, perhaps, whatever Sylar wants them to be.

Yes! That was so awesome!! I wish the whole show could be like that one scene. And the fight scene later...

x_x_igorina_x_x June 3 2012, 23:26:10 UTC

Hiro scene. *checks e-mail* It bother me that little Hiro has the same haircut as big Hiro. Dress sense hasn't changed much either.

Something about Samuel speaking Japanese creeps me out.

I love how decorated Annie's side of the room looks compared to Claire.

Claire shouldn't argue with the cops. I wouldn't want to come across as a possible suspect right now.

Ando and Kimiko. I feel bad for Kimiko. She was an interesting character until this episode.

I've never been to Japan so I don't know how accurate it is but it really bothers me how many signs at that carnival are in English.

game_byrd June 4 2012, 01:19:32 UTC

Yep. But lots of people don't understand how to deal with cops. "Yes", "No", and "I want to speak to my lawyer" are really the only words one should ever say to a cop. No matter what. Because yeah, they're looking for a suspect. (Though I'll grant that with a suicide note and at a rich university, they might not look too hard.)

Maybe the carnival is in the US? Though that doesn't explain all the Japanese people at it. :(

dancingdragon3 June 4 2012, 01:45:53 UTC

I had no idea you were so anti-cop. Now I have learned something new!

I still think the carnival is in Japan.

game_byrd June 4 2012, 01:54:09 UTC

I am **EXTREMELY** anti-cop. And very, VERY prejudiced against what passes for a justice system. It's been nearly two years and I can't get divorced from my asshole of an ex. My neighbor's kid molested mine and they wouldn't prosecute. Then there's the crap with my sister. And the stuff during college. And the sex offender registry BS. And people getting framed. And the incredible rate of plea bargains. The uselessness of protective orders. That ( ... )
