[SuperT]

SYLAR’S NEW ABILITY BEGINS TO TAKE ITS TOLL ON HIM – EMMY AWARD-WINNER ZELJKO IVANEK GUEST STARS – Sylar (Zachary Quinto) continues his unusual partnership and begins to have an unexpected identity crisis. Hiro (Masi Oka) and Ando (James Kyson Lee) take measures toward bringing down Building 26. Meanwhile, Matt’s (Greg Grunberg) new found fatherhood changes his priorities. Elsewhere, Nathan (Adrian Pasdar) sets a plan in motion to right the wrongs of his government operation. Jack Coleman, Hayden Panettiere, Sendhil Ramamurthy, Cristine Rose and Milo Ventimiglia also star. Noah Gray-Cabey, Lisa Lackey and Ellen Greene also guest star.

Nice @ Hiro and Ando taking down Building 26, and nice that Micah will be back this episode.

Sounds like a good episode I look forward to seeing Sylar struggle with his new ability.

 

[Maximus One]

They mean the shapeshifting right?

 

[3 Dev Adam]

I am Sylar.

I am Spock.

And he said he was FASCINATED with Danko.

Lots of foreshadowing here.

 

[Maximus One]

Maybe instead of taking on nathans identity he could just take on Dankos!!! Now that would be boss!!!

 

[bullets]

I am Sylar.

I am Spock.

I'd love him to turn into Spock for a minute , that would be hilarious.

 

[3 Dev Adam]

Nah. Hiro would yell NOT REONARD NIMOY! and ruin the trick.

I am assuming Sylar is going to have a new "agenda" and that would be to be President of the United States. I think that is his identy crisis. They are going the 5 Years Gone route. So if that is the case one of the deaths has to be Nathan.

Ive been waiting to see Sylar in the white house

Ugh. I keep seeing this title in the new posts section and have to say this:

This episode really should be renamed, "I am the reason the show ****ing sucks now. And I am a horrible ****ing character that should have been ****ing killed at the end of the first ****ing season and never ****ing seen a-****ing-gain. Some call me Sylar."

 

[Gilpesh]

More liek Super-LAG-Hype.

 

[GL1]

Sylar worship is a great deal of the reason why this show sucked so hard volumes 2 and 3. If they give this character his final comeuppance, I will be very, very, VERY happy.

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but here are some promo shots from this episode. It has spoilerish evidence towards "5 Years Gone".

Dude!!! Sylar meeting Micah?!?!?! I swear I would be soo pissed if they had Sylar kill him but I would praise them for having nuthin short of big brass testes!

Death shouldn't be his final comeupance, he should lose his powers and go be forced to go back to being a nobody.

I don't see how Nathan can become President Of The United States with the Government hunting him down as well. Unless the current President has some kind of change of heart & decides to keep the program open but instead of going after everyone with powers just the bad guys

I doubt the President even knows that Nathan has an ability. There is no evidence that Danko went to the President, so I'm guessing it only Danko's team that knows the truth.

On a side note did anyone catch what Sylar (as Nathan) was saying at the tv press conference? It looked like he was letting the public know about people with special abilities.

Danko is the only person on the team that knows Nathan has abilities and he has no proof to show anyone since Micah turned off the camera when he pushed Nathan out the window.

By the looks of promo shots for next week's episode;

Spoiler

Sylar and Danko find Nathan and kill him. Sylar gets out of hand so Danko puts an end to Sylar. YAY

Unfortunately they will probably write it as...

Spoiler

Danko stabs Sylar in the back of the dome, but misses that 1 key area which Sylar mentioned a few episodes ago.

 

[RonStoppablefan]

I can't wait for this episode

Spoiler

It says the Peter V.S Sylar fight will happen in it. I don't think Nathan will die in this episode however since the next episode it says Nathan will try every thing in his power to stop Sylar from meeting the president. I do think he's a gonner in the finale though

 

[JPC4]

I really don't see what Peter could do to Sylar given his current ability status. Peter would need help from baby jesus parkman or Ando to possibly fully regain his ability. Unless they go the empathetic route, and have him naturally grow back into his ability (which the writers have hinted at over the past few episodes). Hopefully it outdoes their fight from season 1, or at the very least, let Sylar give Peter his scar.

 

[Trainwreck2100]

well if peter touches Sylar, will he get all Sylar's abilities, including that empathy thing?

 

[RonStoppablefan]

One of the people in the Eclipes thing said

Spoiler

Peter will gain another ability besides flight at the end of the Volume. Now that could be interpted as many things, maybe he gets to have flight and a new one to fight Sylar. Or maybe he switches flight with another. Either way this should be fun

 

[Booznian]

I love the fact that peter only has one power ATM. It's very probable that if there is a peter/sylar fight at the end of the season, that he will get his infamous scar. (he does not have Claire's power.
