Previously, on Heroes...

* "I'm not going to nuke the dog!" -Ted
* Ah, the plan was to steal the computer. I like these openings.
* ("Stay calm.")
* "...And you know what happens when I get upset." -Ted
* Black and white flashback! "Wildly enthusiastic."
* "I'm comfortable with morally grey." -Mr. Bennet
* Team with one of 'them.' Keeping everyone honest. INteresting!
* "She knows?" -Matt
* They think Mr. Bennet did 'it' to them.
* "He told me to protect you from someone killing people like me." -Matt
* Hey, that's a familiar rooftop.
* OMG SULU. AND YOUNG HIRO WITH TERRIBLE HAIR.
* "She belongs to us."
* "Happy Father's day." -Claude
* "Son of a bitch is thinking in Japanese." -Matt
* ("Shoot Claire now!")
* Man, Mr. Bennet is directing it all.
* Coughs up a bullet!
* "I didn't make anyone!" -Mr. Bennet
* Ah, they would have taken Claire if they knew she had manifested.
* Matt's totally flipped.
* "There's a boy we discovered in Haiti. He's mute."
* "You're the only one I can trust."
* Ted, quit showing off.
* Heh, found out he can talk.
* Seven years ago. "You're not as good a liar as you think."
* Claude was hiding one too.
* AUGH VIVISECTION
* "I was in the office when they told you to kill me."
* "You acted against the company."
* Oh, hi Claire.
* Mom went back for her!
* "I don't know what I am." -Claire
* "I can't pretend it's the same world it was yesterday." -Mrs. Bennet
* Yay Haitian! And she made sure to save Mr. Muggles!
* "I'm sorry." -Big Boss Man
* Tranq! Claire can do it! "Get him out of here!"
* Wow, she looks like Spock at the end of Wrath of Khan.
* And, in retrospect, she just used her powers in front of a bunch of people.
* "It's a shame to have to kill another partner."
* Heh, they said the Haitian was hiding her.
* Oh, hi Ted.
* Man, Matt's in a nicer place. They're totally going to recruit him.
* "She is going to help us clean up the mess you made."
* There's the Haitian. Yay.
* Shot! Erased! Dude, I was totally tearing up in this scene.

Next week: Sword! Linderman!

Just one story, cool. And WOW, so much info to comprehend. And where will the Haitian take her? And who is the Big Boss Man?

WHERE can I possibly begin with this episode???

There were so many 'oh sh**' or 'daaaaamn' moments!

I'm very glad that Hiro's dad was more involved as probably some suspected. I hoped, but wasn't willing to have a real opinion. He wasn't some window dressing to get people to watch .. there's a genuine issue there. It looked to me like HE was giving Bennett's boss orders.

Claude .. dang, that explains a lot! I want to know how he survived. I wondered if maybe it was the person he was hiding. I had a brief bit of wondering if Nathan would be the one, but he's the sort that would need a good reason to rescue anyone other than immediately family. Maybe he just had a lucky fall into the trees. (doubt that too)

I was speechless watching Claire go in with the tranq. Then when she came out .. same. That whole ending from that point on with the family holding each other to the end on the bridge did have a real impact on me. Fantastic ending. I'd not even thought about the characters I didn't see until the credits were rolling.

I figured that Claude was wearing a bulletproof vest (since he knew he was supposed to get killed), let himself get shot in the chest a few times, then went invisible and snuck off the bridge without falling. The way he was leaning back off the bridge railing was way too overacted to be anything but an act.

Mr. Bennet can't possibly get away with this for long can he? His dickhead boss is on him like white on rice yo. By which I mean, suspicious and likely having him watched? I'd think.
sailormom: cry pinksailormom on February 27th, 2007 11:58 am (UTC)
That's why he had the Hatian go in and remove memories. If he doesn't even remember them, he can't screw up.
Sooooooooooooooooooo sad!!!!

My biggest question.
When Bennet confronted the Haitian, he replied, "I answer to someone higher than you *in Claire's life*." Specifically not in the company, however.

Which leaves Bennett's family, her real parents, or another relative. With who we know is supposed to appear next week for the first time, I'm wondering if Claire has a grandfather she doesn't know about?

Other thoughts? I'm incredibly curious who people think it might be.

Re: My biggest question.
I thought it was Claire herself. That he thought Claire needed to know, that it was in her own best interests to know. But I could be wrong...

So, does that mean Sulu knows about Hiro then? Does he get protection because he is the boss's son? Or is Sulu another surrogate?
Capncaptain_boots on February 27th, 2007 02:30 pm (UTC)
It's hard to say if he knows or not. Hiro didn't really use his power until recently, and it's not a terribly obvious power. He also doesn't seem to have used it in front of his father.

Of course, babbling on about a mission might have given him away, but dad might just be thinking Hiro's a bit too big of a dreamer too.

My own personal opinion is: Dad doesn't know, but might suspect it.

So, I guess I'm the only one who thought this episode had a lot of stupid piled on top of stupid...

Wow, yes. I mean, this was a huge episode for them. Why didn't you like it?

Do we have any evidence that Bennet's boss isn't Linderman? (I mean the dude who shot at Ted.) It would be a little circular, but I can't discount the idea.
Et Ceteraect on February 27th, 2007 02:16 pm (UTC)
The trailer for next week had a profile shot of Linderman, who is a white-haired bearded gent. Of course, until I saw that shot, I was thinking the same thing.

It was a good thing I had to watch this episode delayed and didn't watch it with the group I normally watch it with. I cried and that would have been embarrassing.

Was no one else kind of amused at Eric Roberts as the No-Name Bennet Boss?
