Episode 09 - "Homecoming" - Discussion Thread

[AirKnight82]

was the tombstone pic of next weeks episode? cuz i pased out 4 mins before the end of the show and had to wach it online.

Um ya...next week we find out how they got so special!t: Sylar gets exposed and we finally get to see who he really is. And what really happened to Hiro

 

[PowersOfMind]

I wonder if HRG and crew are gonna try to do something to Sylar thus pissing him off. Maybe he'll kill HRG, even though that would be sad because I kinda like him.

 

[Darth Hyperion]

Do you all think that Nikki and Jessica had the same kind of psyhic link that Peter and Nathan has and that's why Jessica is able to manifest herself through Nikki even though she's been dead for years? If I remember correctly Peter did say he was connected to Nathan in an earlier episode.

 

[PowersOfMind]

It could be. And yes Peter did say he and Nathan were connected because he knew before anyone else when Nathan and his wife were in that accident that left her paralyzed.

Who is HRG

 

[That-Guy]

HRG = "Horned Rimmed Glasses" AKA Mr. Bennett (Claire's father).

 

[Armand Z Trip]

Peter is THE MAN, this was his first shinning moment, and like all first times at anything, he was sloppy, clueless, barely getting a hang of it all and finishing up in the most akward way possible. He has a huge road ahead of him, but he showed he has what it takes to travel it, can't wait for what's up ahead with him

I thought Peter was great too. I laughed when in the code name thread you called him - just standing there Pete. Lookout, or just standing there Pete will get you with his vacant stare! But the fact that he went through with it believing he was going to die was so cool.

I wonder how he's going to get out of jail now that he's been arrested. maybe HRG will help him out since he helped Claire

 

[PLAS]

things I didn't like:

Isaac's ex dialogs

 

[Hiruu]

Who is HRG

Horned Rim Glasses? My Bennett?

 

[ragdus]

I was a bit bummed by the Peter/Sylar confrontation. But maybe it's too early for Peter to absorb his power and have a standoff of equal foes.

I think this finally showed that Sylar can't really sense which people have powers, or he would have whacked Claire from the get-go AND killed Peter before he fled. He just tracks them down, probably with whatever system Dr. Suresh devised to do so.

 

[Eddie Brock]

awesome episode
there's nothing more to be said
so awesome, in fact, that it made my signature

The FBI agent and Matt will ofcourse come to the scene, as the girl was killed, and therefore, the FBI will show up. Sylar is a wanted serial killer, and now the FBI will have Matt and Peter...wonder what Nathan will do NOW (I dislike him, btw). HRG might wanna flex, since Peter knows about Claire.

The Haitian's (btw, he's really Haitian, in response to someone concern about the PC aspects of not naming him the black dude...that and the fact that DL is as well, so how would you differientiate...I digress) abilities are a mystery to me at this point...i thought maybe he's a bit of a n-power...ie...he backlashes on those trying to use their ability...but the sylar takedown was confusing.

Edit

 

[zanos]

This was a great episode. Finally there's some real action.

 

[burning-robot]

Ohh I love Eden! "You dont want to hurt me" It was beauty who calmed the beast as someone said. I wonder if she and Hatian are working on their own now, and are done taking orders from Bennet.

And i can see what some of you are saying about Ando and timetravel. As soon as Hiro went back everything changed; the photo on the wall, the events of that day she died, were all different. But Ando still remembers the events as they took place on that day, even though they didnt happen like that. His memory should have changed just like the other people in the dinner.

 

[PowersOfMind]

Something I was wondering... does Sylar have some sort of super-speed ability... as fast as Claire and Peter were running from him and the fact that he wasnt literally chasing them yet he seemed to always be right behind them. Then right before he and Peter fell off the bleaches on minute he was at the bottom of the steps the next he was right in front of Peter. Hmmm... I guess the man must be racking up some serious abilities.

 

[Abaddon]

Previews for next week have got me interested in Niki's story again, though I don't think I like the idea of her having a dead twin sister.

 

[PowersOfMind]

Hmm I do because you know some of the things they say about twins being really connected to on another.

 

[Magma_15]

Well I actually like Nikki/Jessica and I want to know why she is the way she is. And I want to know if both Nikki and Jessica have super strength or is it just Jessica.

 

[Hitan]

I'd like to know why everyone in India speaks English. In Japan, people spoke Japanese with subtitles. Shouldn't the people in India be speaking Hindi or something.

India is the third largest English-using population in the world

 

[The Punisher]

Damn! Yesterday's episode was the best one so far of Heroes. Never have I felt such excitment for a show. During the whole time I couldn't wait to see what happened next and really, Peter is officially one of my favorites. When that painting of him was shown all I could think of was whether or not he will die and when the time finally came all I could so was question. Him bumping into Claire was so damn cool, I can't wait to see more between them. I could tell it was sort of like a brother watching over his sister thing. Sylar was mad badass! I felt really bad for Jackie and the way she went was really gruesome. Sylar's powers are one I want to see more of and I can't wait to see more of him for next week. When he and Peter went at it and they both layed dead, I was like "No! I can't believe that he died." Then, when the show came back and Sylar was gone, at that monet Peter was alive. I litterally shouted at my tv, I completly forgot he most have absobered Claire's powers. All in all this ep delivered, It had everything I expected, and honestly this sbow lives up to it's words. It really does get better and better. the end with Hiro was just so cool and a perfect set up for next week. Next week's episode, I can't wait to see Nikki's stoey, the Petrelli bros, Hiro and the rest. And ofcourse Sylar. I recognized who he was in an instant. He was from that show So Notorious, with Tori Spelling and the agent from 24. I couldn't believe he was Sylar, and seeing him in next week's preview makes me anticipate it BADLY.

Heroes owns my soul!!

 

[The Question]

India is the third largest English-using population in the world

Yeah. India doesn't have one major language. It has about five. English is probably one of the most prominant amung them. While alot of people probably don't use English on a regular, casual basis, a very large number a fluent in English.

 

[kane9321]

wow.what an episode..eden's power of suggestion..thats like the coolest power there is

 

[The Squirrel]

Interesting episode.

HRG's goons captured Sylar... I wonder if that will stick.

Next weeks episode should be good.
