"I'm risking a rift just by coming here" - Hiro. Also, "You told me many times how lost you felt. Before it all started." That says a lot about Peter's state of mind.

And here's the mysterious moment when Nathan flies off right in the Haitian's face.

Nikki - poor Nikki. She must feel so violated.

Poor Peter.

Poor Janice. And how the hell did 'they' drop him off on the couch while Janice was in the next room? They *have* to have a teleporter on the payroll.

Poor Hiro and Ando. :( Though they got off fairly light.

Poor Matt, being a bad husband in the past and feeling bad about it.

Why do I feel so sorry for all these sad characters?

Except shirtless Nathan. I don't feel sorry for him at all.

I’ve “lost” my mom on a couch we never use before. It’s one of those ‘last places you look’ especially if you think the person you seek isn’t home.

Not sad for shirtless Nathan, either.

I love Nathan's easy, "I don't know what you're talking about" to Hiro ( ... )

Where'd Hiro get the bag from? Nathan?

Isaac calls Peter “dawg.” Slight pronunciation difference. It’s like “bro” or “dude,” but ghetto/gangster-wanna-be. There’s no insult or insulted reaction.

Yes, Nikki’s house (at least her garage) was trashed but she left Micah with her friend, ‘Tina,’ so they cleaned up. That’s bad that I can’t remember her name. Jessica cleaned up the garage when she handled the bodies and got that orange car.

I appreciate Matt’s growth throughout the seasons. Brains and bad choices or not, I like his character, he’s relatable and endearing (most of the time).

I assume Hiro's bag is from Tokyo. He has it when he's tossed out of the casino and later when the high-stakes gambler has him tossed from the van. But when he leaves the diner with Nathan, he doesn't have it. In the next scene, as he leaves Nathan's car, he has it again. So that's cool. I guess he went back into the diner after the scene cut, having remembered, 'Oh yeah, my bag is still in there!' or something.

I know the 'dawg' thing, but it's just funny how they went with a canine thing instead of dude, bro, buddy, guy, or whatever else.

I thought the mobsters tossed Nikki's house, then found her and took her to the garage so she could supposedly work off a little debt. Then she killed them, and the next thing we see the garage is perfectly clean but the house is a mess and Micah is like, 'what happened to our house?!?' while she's telling him to grab some stuff and come on. But who knows. Maybe as Jessica she hired some cleaning people to come by and straighten everything up while she wouldn't be there the next night.

I wonder if DL was hanging around the entire time in a closet or the pantry or just inside a couple walls, partly phased in and listening. That would be an awkward conversation to eavesdrop on.

That ... that dead cheerleader ... that's Jackie. So when Isaac says, "We have to save her", he means Jackie.

Ugh. Three more episodes before Sylar shows ( ... )

If future!Hiro is anything like present!Hiro, then he probably doesn't know what the hell he's talking about with that 'rift' stuff.

I think that might be only the third time he's flown. But no, he mentioned how neat it was to fly over the desert at night. So maybe he practiced a bit? I have a hard time imagining him lying around soaking up rays, or taking the family to the beach.

My kids had waffles on vacation and ... yes.

And Hiro picked it up between episodes when Hiro's timeline had very little room between episodes. It's enough to make me wonder if he'd stop time, cheat at gambling, then pull Ando's Japanese-English book out and read it for an hour or two at a time before putting it back and resuming the normal flow of time.

Yeah, the hospital rooms are top-notch! I've been in a birthing room that was mostly that nice, but you're expected to be in those for 2-3 days with family in and out and you don't die at the end of it (hopefully).

Boy, Nathan sounds pissed than she doesn’t remember the sex! He sounds like he has a right to be, too. Yes, a “good” girl who cheats on her husband and otherwise has sex with Nathan, that’s his type. Guilty, evil, and manipulative people love to catch themselves a “good” person. He…must genuinely like her or he'd be much more upset about being blackmailed and/or kidnapped because she admitted involvement. Maybe he's just happy he got the tip-off about blackmail ( ... )

I wish curing asshole-ism and rapism could be cured as easily as ‘forgetting’ that you’ve done it. It might in a few cases, juvenile stupidity and newness for example. Do I think he’s cured? Nope.

Yeah, me too. He's still going to be the person he was before, just now he can't remember anything he learned from it. I think the best we can hope for is that he puts together what Claire said and realizes they'd been dating or something, then she hurt him somehow for hurting her. So that maybe he gets the idea of consequences. But that would be a stretch, as there's nothing she says that makes it clear 'rape' is the issue, or that she was responsible for the crash.
