Episode 09 - "Homecoming" - Discussion Thread

[ragdus]

um. look at the very beginning. there's clearly Claire and another cheerleader in the room when (presumeably) Sylar kills the lights.

it looks like the theory he tries to whack the girl who stole credit for the fire rescue holds a lot of water at this point.

Wasn't her name Jackie?

I just wanted to say how much I don't like people making threads for the next 50 episodes in advance.

I think Claire's father is putting on a front of "concern" for his daughter. It is clear that he is experimenting on mutants. He knows that an insanely powerful mutant is running around lopping people's brains, and he knows he has the means to get his hands on said mutant. His friend who does the mind thing to people needs only to get close enough to Sylar to serve Mr Bennett's ends.

Hm, now how on earth do they plan on finding this Sylar guy? They know he will be after a cheerleader at Claire's homecoming. He's going to use his daughter like a piece of meat to get his hands on Sylar. My two cents.

 

[Abaddon]

I disagree greatly.

Edit

Edited to get rid of what I was made to think was a stupid comment, but having found no other reference to Zach being gay besides opinions on forums, I'm gonna stick 'er back up there. He's in love with her, and I think there's more to him than that (so I'm guessing he works for Mr Bennett on some level or he's gifted too)

 

[ragdus]

I think you're seeing what you want to see and not what's being presented to you.

Yep, you're right. It was.

Are we allowed to post spoiler pics? i found some with Peter

Spoiler

all bloodied getting arrested and Claire running away from him

in another forum which seemed interesting.

So can we see it ? Just put it in spoiler tags.

a guys take a look a the trailer..for next week...in the scene were sylar is throwing (im guessing claire) if you look to the left of sylar it looks to be another cheerleader ..but take a look at it let me kno wat you think.....(its at about the :25 sec mark)

I see Sylar throwing Claire away while Jackie, the other cheerleader, is held up against the wall. It's Claire because the girl being thrown has the hair style.

I say Sylar kills Jackie at this point. Then turns to see a bloody Claire healing. Then he realizes his mistake and gives chase.

 

[StorminNorman]

Oh, and PS, I think Claire's almost boyfriend is also gifted... though we're not too sure how just yet, that or he too is working for her dad.

 

[-Æ-]

ever thought that the line save the cheerleader, save the world could have a double meaning. What if they save the cheerleader, yet saving the world itself is a whole other event.

 

[Triadkd]

uh pheebs claire's "almost boyfriend" is gay.

 

[pheebs]

what are you basing the gay thing on? I never got that impression, unless I missed a guy-guy make out session when I went to the bathroom or something? if you ask me he's clearly in love with her.

 

[Triadkd]

It was on that website that had the future episode summaries. And if you look at the earlier episodes it makes sense. In the second episode one of the cheerleaders makes fun of him because he had a ***** in the locker room. He tells claire he likes her because she is different(like him). And when she asked him if he was flirting with her he had a smirk on his face like" if you only knew". he wasnt flustered or embarrased at all.

 

[PowersOfMind]

Did the summary say that he was going to tell her he was gay or that he had a secrect he was going to reveal to her? Because the things you listed above dont make him gay necessarily.

That's clearly the case. If Claire dies, they can't save the world. That doesn't mean she's the one that will save it though. I think it's becoming more evident through the show and interviews that Peter is the guy that's going to save the world, but he needs the help of the others, and most importantly Claire, to do so.

Very true Ragdus.

It says that Zach would come out of the closet. Here's the thread discussing it.

 

[PowersOfMind]

ohhh ok..that is pretty specific. I guess he is gay.

 

[-Æ-]

lol, like it matters if he is. Such a moot topic.

 

[ragdus]

Nobody said it mattered. It was brought up because someone theorized he had a secret love for Claire. So his being gay probably negates said theory, that's all.

 

[AirKnight82]

dude when did we start discussing who was the Gay Hero in heroes? Wow like that really matters anyways... is some one going to say that being gay is wrong or they dislike a character cause they are gay???

Well anywho get back to the main topic people! Save the cheerleader save the world next monday and then one more episode this fall season as I heard then back in March!

 

[ragdus]

REad what I said. Nobody cares if he's gay or not. It was mentioned to disprove a theory somone mentioned about him being in love with Claire.

Quit being so reactionary if you're not going to bother and read what it's in context to.

 

[Triadkd]

AirKnight no one cares that he is gay. Pheebs suggested a theory and we refuted it.
