Episode 16 - "Unexpected" - Discussion Thread 2/19/07

[Abaddon]

it's not a big gap, but she could use some work on her teeth.

 

[Tyrinus]

I'm thinking Peter's voice change had to do with telepathy. He was all over the place while he was invisible taunting Isaac, it's within the bounds of telepathy to project his thoughts into Isaac's mind(just because Matt hasn't done it yet doesn't mean he can't.) Perhaps the voice change was reflecting Peter projecting his voice into Isaac's mind so he couldn't get a bearing on where he was in the room. We simply assumed Peter was speaking, but we didn't actually see him speak.


And I'm thinking that after the showdown at the Bennett house that Claire skips out and goes with Matt, Hana, and Ted.

 

[Wolfwood]

Is anyone else reminded of the Geico Cavemen when they see Ted?

Peter was simply badass, a fight between him and Sylar is going to be crazy.

 

[Supreme Power]

Wow, freaking great episode tonight.
Peter went all Sylar and stuff.

Wonder how long it's going to take Mohinder to figure out about Sylar.

 

[Poetic Chaos]

I definitely didn't imagine Peter becoming that badass but it completely works. Wow though, those were some 1978 special effects for the flying.

 

[superadam87]

my favorite episode so far... AWESOME! Peter is bad@$$. next weeks looks incredible too.

 

[Supreme Power]

I wish they would just give us some clue as to what exactly her powers are, or how she got them. I understand she's basically a schizophrenic Juggernaut inhabited by the spirit of her dead sister. Her story is not developing at the pace it should, so I find her boring.

No not inhabited by her spirit. It's a split personality where her sister is the other one and has the powers. It will be interesting to see how they explain that. I'm actually liking Nikki/Jessica more now.

 

[Dodger]

Is anyone else reminded of the Geico Cavemen when they see Ted?

Lol! I was thinking the same thing. I kept on hoping he would say, "I'm not 100% in love with your attitude right know. " or "Tina's here, we're getting back together!"

 

[fu manchu]

That was indeed a great episode.

Really cool to see:
- Hana, finally.
- shoot out between Hope and the guy from State Gaming Commission (he's that guy from "Coach").
- that Hiro got his power back.
- Peter flying.
- Matt teaming up with Ted and Hana against HRG
- Claire yelling at HRG.
- Stan Lee

Sad to see:
- Simone die. At least, she'll be with her dad. And....nathan doesn't have to worry about Simone reporting to the press.
- Mrs. Bennet with some type of brain damage.
- Dale die
- no nikki, jessica, DL, micah, and zach.
- nathan for only one scene.
- Mohinder being so clueless

t: Funniest quotes -
Hiro: Look Ando! No scratch on the Versa.

questions:
- Is this the last episode we see Claude and Ando?
- how long will it be until Mohinder finds out that Zane is Sylar?
- Will HRG survive after the meeting with Matt, Ted, and Hana?
- What will happen to Issac? Jail? Will there be a funeral?
- What about the diamonds?
- What was that song on Dale's Ipod when Mohinder finds her dead? It sounded like a cool song.

I find that Peter may not be the cause of the explosion. I think he was just taking place in whoever did it. But who knows. Visions can be altered. I mean he didn't see Claude before in the first vision until he focused on it. Perhaps, Simone won't die, we will have to stay tuned to learn more on that.
Oh, and I don't get why Mohinder is being clueless on why a strange man would come with him. Sylar was good at acting the whole 'sylar is bad'. It would be interesting to see what Mohinder would do.

What if, rather than simply taking too many powers, peter takes too many at once. Think about it, sylar is racking up the powers like there's no tomorrow. By the time we eventually see their showdown he could have 19-20 powers. Now if peter leeches all those powers at once, that could cause the overload the vision showed

Not as clueless az zane, how many white guys do you know called mohinder suresh?

 

[Sentinel X]

Fantastic episode!! Sucks that the hearing woman died, this show always creates the best charecters only to have them killed off. But atleast we have the internet woman, she seems cool and hope to see more of her.

And knew Simone had to be the one to die, all the other charecters are to important right now.

I actually liked the hearing lady's charecter and wanted to see more of her . I didnt care for simmone

I think Hiro may have the ability to reverse time and space locally and used it to reverse Hope's actions while everything else moved forward.

Yep, so most likely Peter will do it to Simmone...thus she's not really dead...that is unless Peters dreams are fakes

LOOK AT THAT GAP!!!!:wow:

What the hell?
I think shes the hottest girl in the show. Then its Hana then it Claire....Then its super hearing lady

Im kidding on the last part
but I think Niki's charecter is getting tied in now that shes after Nathan...but I dont know if I would've done it that way.

 

[bulok]

Did Peter meet Eden?

Peter may have met Eden since he visited Isaac and Mohinder around about the time she was hanging around those guys. Can't be certain tho I'd have to watch again when the DVD is released

 

[Kebab gud]

one think that strikes me .. is Sylar schizo? im not shure he's "acting".. and if he is then its just the actor who is bad at acting acting :P

 

[dpm07]

I think Simone's role on this show was done and her character was going nowhere. She outlived her usefullness and so she was eliminated for ratings. I mean, hey, we all watched the show in joyful anticipation of who was going to chopped.

I've seen different interviews online with other forums and I think E! (not sure) where it hinted that there was some backroom tension between Tawny Cypress and another character. In fact, they didn't get along well, and that's why their scenes had been limited from when the show started to now. I think the character was either Isaac or Peter. Not sure. That may have resulted in her leaving the show, if in fact she's dead. It seems like in some reports I saw, she was had a bit of a diva attitude in RL.

 

[Mysterio]

Spoiler

the writers have already revealed that matt will kill whoever dies in episode 17.

use spoiler tags, please.

 

[Mysterio]

Peter actually has met Hiro but they havent addressed the power issue there.

they did last night. Claude said something about stopping time when he was beating Peter with the stick.

 

[Mysterio]

I musta missed that. I thought it was the car that Hiro came in that got shot, not Ando's.

it was. Hiro's car wasn't hit.

 

[hulkamania]

Even if Sylar knows about Peter's power I don't think Sylar would use it. I think he enjoys killing. I think that is part of the rush he gets when stealing other people's ability (the fast heart beat). He is a twisted psychopath.

What makes anyone think that sylar can even kill Peter? All he has to do is:
A: freeze sylar in place
or
B: Take Sylar's powers and use them (i.e. telekenesis)

 

[bulok]

anyone else have the feeling that Peter might go into the "dark side"?

 

[Mysterio]

it's not a big gap, but she could use some work on her teeth.

in Chaucer's time, a gap between a woman's teeth was a sign that she was oversexed.

 

[AssMan]

The best part of this episode was Peter flying & being a bad ass when he confronted Issac t:

really?

anyhoo, great episode, its good to see stan lee and the bit between the shootout between the cop and hope was hilarious. Just watching Hiro and Ando talk while there is gunfire was pretty funny.

can't wait until next week

 

[kane9321]

damn simone...just like that uh man.Peter turned to the dark side whippin Isaac ass..Stan lee is greatest man ever.
