meta: episode 15: run
Eek! So, late again, but...before the episode at least? Sorry! And strangely enough there was less meta than usual to scroll through (I guess few people had anything to say about this episode) but I was very out of sorts. Hopefully tonights episode creates a better turnout.
Sylar
I've jumped on the Sylar love bandwagon. It's like when you're learning long division, and the whole thing just does not make sense but everyone tells you that you'll get it one day and all of a sudden you go "OMG...5 goes into 30 six times, carry the 1 AND ZACHARY QUINTO IS HOT!"
zehara
Sylar is Love. I don't have to say anything else. Although I found it weird he wore what Zane was wearing. Were those the only clothes Zane had or what?
yaiyah
However one thing I have to wonder about - did he take the t-shirt off before he cut open his head? There's no blood on it, so I'd think yes. Do I want to know how he pursuaded him to do so? Was there a promise of Sylar-sexing, and when Sylar got his prize of the pretty t-shirt he went 'shazam! no Sylar-sex for you! off with da head'?

Hiro & Ando
And how dumb is Hiro? You never tell the villain you know his plan! Of course they're going to punch you and lock you in a cupboard! Honestly.
zehara
Also, Ando? Your crush on Niki was oddly cute. Your crush on Kimiko was okay. I am tolerating your crush on Hope, mostly because everyone knows evil manipulators are irresistible to sidekicks. But if you don't cut it out sometime soon we will all know you're just an incorrigible lech.
acaciaonnastik
Oh no, you do NOT punch Hiro out. You love Hiro, for he is awesome and lovely and made of teh sweetness. I adore him. And now you're going to make poor Ando all sad, and that's just not cool either. I hope you have a power, and I hope Sylar brain slices you for it. We might have to see him in a pink tiara and boa, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

Aw, Ando. He is like Scooby Doo and her lovely lady lumps are the Scooby Snacks.

Matt & Jessica
How stupid is Matt? "I've found the briefcase. I'm going to return the diamonds. He hurt my feelings, so I'm stealing the diamonds, but I'm too stupid to remember to hide the case." They're never going to figure that one out. That guy was right. He'll never wear a badge again.
misshigherpower
Dude, Matt. Let him get killed. Why don't you kill him? Because you see, I rather like you and if you try and be a hero, you're going to have to go up against Nikiessica and no one can beat Nikiessica. Except for Claude, who, as was established in the previous episode, is the new Chuck Norris.

Mat: He's finally a bit interesting (And he didn't spend much screentime with his wife, and the affair didn't come up at all. Coincidence? I think not.)
lady1raven
Teehee. Am I the only one that can picture Jessica happily humming along to the elevator music? And then coming back to trash the elevator when she realizes she can't get the tune out of her head for the next three days?

Nathan
How come Linderman suddenly wants Nathan dead? He didn't even do anything to him except get 2 extra millions from him. Linderman is such a sore loser
never_evil
The worst of it is, it totally looks like it's killing Nathan, too, to reject her like that. Mean old Meredith. And mean old Mama Petrelli. So it looks like the show's message for the week is: DON'T LISTEN TO YOUR MOMMAS, BECAUSE THEY'RE LYING LIARS!! WHO LIE!! Well, except for Mrs. Bennet, who's just slowly going crazy, what with all the memory erasing.

Mohinder
Oh, Mohinder. You know, Eden is watching you from beyond the grave. And lo, she is facepalming mightily and saying, "Oh, you poor sweet idiot. Have I taught you nothing about suspiciously helpful people and how they only want to get into your pants research?"
acaciaonnastik
I don't know how Mohinder would be able to do anything with the DNA anyway because all he has is a crappy apartment and a rising phone bill.
petalsinthewind
Hey look, it's Mohinder. I feel like we havent seen him in ages. Still hasn't learned how to dress himself, sadly. Bright orange? What is he, rooting for the Dutch football team?
lin
Ya'll, Mohinder's funky scarf has finally cut off all blood flow to his brain and now he's stupid. You don't notice that Sylar is a bit...odd? And that he's all "YARGH! DON'T LOOK IN MY KITCHEN I KEEL YOU DEAD!" Oh, but he thought to put plastic wrap down lest he mess the floor up. Sylar is a TIDY psychopath.
byakuganchick
Mohinder should send his picture beforehand and be like, This is what I look like. And the people will be like, WE WILL LISTEN TO ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TELL US. (FYI: We'll listen better if you take off your shirt?)

Claire/Meredith/HRG/Mrs.Bennet
I actually hurt myself laughing when HRG grounded Claire for lying. Irony, thy name is Bennet.
acaciaonnastik
Poor Mister Muggles. Who will give you snuggly wuzzies now?
elite
Poor Claire! I wish she could get with somebody who's good and stable and not in danger of getting whacked, but there pretty much isn't anybody like that on the whole show. Except maybe the Haitian. She needs to run away with the Haitian Sensation right now; otherwise she might as well stay with Mr. Bennet. Because bullets are going to start flying, Radioactive Ted is going to start getting used by a revenge-crazed Zionist supermodel, and Peter's going to start exploding (or at least, not allowing himself to strengthen any personal attachments), and all of her parental units are going to be in the crossfire.
terebi_me
"Mr. Muggles isn't worried.' If Mr. Muggles has more than two brain cells, I'd be suprised. Either that or he's secretly hoping she'll brain melt and he can go off with Sylar on evil villian super adventures. Because Sylar won't make him wear sweaters.

Matt
I do realize that eavesdroppers rarely hear good of themselves, but how come Matt only ever seems to hear people thinking about how lame they think he is? Doesn't anyone ever think about the case at hand? Dinner? Donuts? Statistically, shouldn't they occasionally be thinking about sex? I want to see Matt's "ew, TMI!" face. (I also want him to know when superpowered hitwomen are lying to his face, otherwise what good is being a telepath at all?)
acaciaonnastik
Also OMG I bet next we'll find out that Mrs. Petrelli and Matt Parkman are related. It was one big fat giant plan from the start. Angela brings the socks and we hide the diamonds in them and then we hide the socks in the purse! And they all lived happily ever after.

GAH! What's going to happen to Hiro? And Ando left him! Don't do it, Ando! She's a tramp and she's just using you! Things would be so much easier if tv characters would just LISTEN to me.
byakuganchick
ETA: It is vastly unfair that there's an episode titled "Run!" and Eccleston isn't in it.
lady1raven
In conclusion: Not enough Peter and Claude. And by "not enough" I mean "none at all". Please remedy this in the future, writers.
