Chapter 54 - "Cold Snap" Discussion Thread - 3/23/09

[Asgard]

Are they going to touch on the catalyst that Hiro was given?

Traci's death was cool.

Did anyone else believe that Micah was Rebel? That came so far outta left field.

Seeing Peter was pretty cool, although Im not sure how he was able to rescue his mom.

Too bad Daphne had to die. I liked her character.

So what is the scientific name of Matt Jr.'s power?

Ando doing a Kamehameha was nice. Hiro having part of his power back was cool. I can't believe he managed to freeze everything in a 14 mile span.

Sylar's coming back and he's looking for a fight with any mutant that comes his way.

I wonder what Angela's end game is.

Very good episode.

Arthur Patrelli took the catalyst when he took Hiro's powers in Volume 3. And now Arthur is gone so the catalyst is too.

 

[Asgard]

I see. Thanks for the info.

25 miles. Hiro freezes time everywhere. It's part of what makes his power so incredible. If he did not freeze all of time, then people would constantly be coming to the edge of his time freezing bubble and going WTF when they see a bunch of frozen people.

I think most people on the Hype figured it was Micah. There's a whole thread about it.

ando should be able to give hiro his powers back in full, isnt his power like that of an amplifier

It amplifies powers people have already. Time travel was not returned to Hiro only the ability to freeze time. He doesn't have it so it can't be amplified.

 

[GL1]

You don't know that though, you've assumed that. They should have mentioned that on the show, or better, introduced the two with Ando trying just that same trick and it not working.

yes but what ken is saying makes sense, its not like this show to use simple logic

 

[absonic93]

this episode made me love Tracy even more.

 

[Neptune]

Would Micah PLEASE get a haircut? Seriously, I can't take it anymore. His hair looks like Jheri-jew curls!!

Hahaha agreed!

I don't think Tracy is really dead by the way. Ice man can't really be kiled in his Ice form either.

Spoiler

Well here's your confirmation - Bryan Fuller confirmed in this weeks episode commentary w/ Masi Oka that Tracy is NOT dead, and the wink at the end of the scene was intentional to show that she was still alive.

This is probably a spoiler, but here goes...I was just watching the commentary of Cold Snap on the Heroes website, which featured Masi Oka and Bryan Fuller himself. Bryan Fuller basically revealed three things, so these are coming from the writer himself. Number One, Tracy is not dead, the blink was added because the creators on the show didn't want to create another death that had no consequences, so they wanted to establish that Tracy wasn't dead from the get-go. She basically gets away into the drain. Second, Daphne is dead. Masi asks Fuller point-blank and Fuller confirms that Daphne's death is permanent. Third, Fuller basically spoiled part of Tracy's storyline for next season, mentioning that Micah's little speech to her in the parking garage is going to be the kick-start for her to become a better person, a leader of the good guys. So everyone who is pegging Tracy to be a villain now...not so much. Sounds like she's going to come back in a capacity similar to Micah, helping to guide and protect other powered folks.

[absonic93]

Hahaha agreed!

As appreciative as many people will be to see this I think a spoiler tag is in order.

Done. I originally did a simple quote as it stood from the original post.

 

[Sawyer]

I thought mondays episode was pretty good. Great to have Fuller back. I just hope he can slap the other writers upside the head and tell them hw to run a ****ing show!

Anyway, all of Angela's stuff was brilliant. Good to see Christine Rose getting more to do.

What if ando amps up the baby then the baby touches hiro?

 

[Johnny Drama]

If Ando amplifies the baby then the baby blows up like a cat in a microwave.

It's science...

*sheesh*

If you really want to get people talking , that's the way to end next weeks episode.

 

[Johnny Drama]

That it. I am starting a petition for exploding baby on Heroes...

 

[Ion Kenshin]

I dunno. He would still not have time travel to amp up. It's not there anymore. Ando can't create another part of his ability

What? So now she can turn into water and regroup like Hydroman? I think it's ******ed. Her power is ice/ freezing stuff and the fact that she can be consumed by her own power is stupid.

Danko should've kicked her instead of shooting her. Would have been way cooler.

Fixed, and now it doesn't seem so stupid, eh?

And she was consumed by her power because this was the first time she had done anything like this, all the heroes on the show slowly progressed there powers, so it's only natural.

 

[absonic93]

yeah that moment was awesome. I'm so proud of Tracy for finally caring about others rather than her ambition. She is better than Nathan after all, (unless he too changes)
