Episode 06: "Better Halves" discussion thread

[faceplant]

Yeah mine too. I just heard 'come in'

got to remember to change the stop time till like 10:02 for next week. that's so annoying.

 

[The Question]

weakest episode indeed.

a whole lotta nothing happened.

just when i get sucked into a series, for the first and only time ever, and make a plan to watch it weekly... it sucks ass.

hence, i am done with TV forever

Don't you think that's a little harsh? The episode had some pretty cool moments. D.L. pulling that Vision trick was pretty damn sweet.

I thought this was a fairly weak ep, but, it's these lazy eps that sometimes drop hints to big things to come.

I liked this episode, explained a lot more about the Niki/Ikin (what I'm called Niki's other half) alot better. We know that the girl Mohinder was hanging around with is part of Horn Rimmed Glasses crew, HRG knows about the Save the Cheerleader prophecy. We know when Ikin is in charge 'cause that's when the tattoo shows up. The only thing I wish they would've shown is Peter tracking down the missing painting.

and no nathan this week, that sucks.

He's too busy with campaigning and blackmailing people, they need to bring him into the bigger plot a little more.

no, not a little harsh... not at all

any headway into the series that was made (see amazing fantasy's post) could have easily been done in 5 minutes. the rest was all fluff.

the vision trick? i could do that with my digital camera and windows media maker.

 

[O'Haire]

I think...

Spoiler

Eden is the one who is going to kill Isaac, like Hiro saw when he went to see him in Episode 2.

it looked like they were bringing him in more last week, he was really good in ep 5

No, Sylar does. Sorry pal.

 

[GNR]

DL doing a Martian Manhunter was cool and all,but please let whoever wrote this episode steer clear of the show in the future.

It just didn't flow well at all.

 

[SouLeSS]

My DVR cut out right before Isaac opened the door. Did anything important happen after that?

Also, can someone get next weeks preview on youtube or something for those of us that didn't get all the ep? THanks.

 

[SouLeSS]

No, Sylar does. Sorry pal.

Maybe Sylars Eden?

Nothing happened.

Next week Hiro and DL team up Marvel style.

This episode was good, I think actually people are saying its weak because action wise, which is a poor excuse, its awesome that they explained the situation with D.L. and Nicki because that confused that hell out of me at sometimes.

It was Hiro and Ando destiny to go into that bathroom though. Don't think they were supposed to know about Nicki actions yet. I didn't expect her to be involved in all of though, but I started putting it together left and right.

When Eden dropped the bomb to Mr. Bennett about "Save the Cheerleader" you can tell that hit him like a rock, the reason why they sent her to Isaacs.

D.L. pwned the **** out of Evil Nicki. Its awesome to see that he is fully developing his powers. Nicki is still alive though no doubt.

Good. I was hoping it wasn't her.

This show has never had alot of action since the get-go and I still enjoyed it.

This week's show just lacked hard.The story didn't flow at all and too much emphasis was directed towards certain characters.

hopefully next week's is better

 

[Substance D]

Yeah, that kid is going to be foiked up. From his POV it looked like his dad was murdering his mother. Interesting development.

 

[SouLeSS]

Shapeshifting, hello?

 

[xwolverine2]

NIKKI WILL GET HER REVENGE!!!!

argh!.......

but she still totally kicked serious ass!!

 

[SouLeSS]

I'm thinking that the "good" Nikki is now dead, and thats who DL ended up killing.

Now all thats left if the "bad" Nikki.

Why? He was fighting the "bad" Nikki.

 

[SouLeSS]

Obviously because the "bad" Nikki is in control of when she wants to come out. If you were about to die but you could flip to your alter ego, you would.

Not to mention thats what Isaac's whole thing about smudging the painting to reveal the Tattoo.

Micah reads the comic, so I think he knows more than we can conceive...
