I knew Nathan was a goner....
Well, he was probably burning it down for either an insurance claim or he's in the protection racket. Either way, to leave a body there is just plain stupid. You don't want *anything* that can even remotely be traced back to you.I think some people here are taking the show way too seriously. It's a TV Show. Every TV show on the planet has a number of these same kind of inconsistencies. The biggest offender I can think of off the top of my head is ST:TNG. Aside from Micah's sojourn in New Orleans, this was a good episode. I'd like to see them move that forward tremendously but I'm afraid were going to get half a season of Micah and his cousin blaming themselves for what's-her-name's death.
All that said:
Why on earth is the penalty for breaking into someone's house to retrieve stolen property the blowing up of an entire building?
Sylar mentioned a babysitter. Presumably, he talked his way in, got her out of sight, and "gave her the night off."Yeah, she just thought that breaking in the apartment was normal in NYC. Or did Mohlinder give him a key for their late night rendevous?
I mistyped. I should have probably elaborated that Sylar didn't know Mohinder in the manner he claimed to.We know as viewers that this is not true but Maya doesn't know this. You said they didn't know each other at all.
They didn't break in. Sylar said that he convinced the babysitter to leave. And I don't think he used the gun to convince her, or she would have called the cops.I think Peter has too much power. If he ever learns Micah's ability he'll be like every comic book hero and villain rolled up into one.
I still can't get over the fact that Maya accompanied Syler as he broke into Mohinder's house and then started cooking like Rachel Ray. Since when is that appropriate behavior during a break-in and hostage situation.
How did Hiro locate an empty, buried coffin? Did Hiro also have to fit in there in order to deposit Adam?
Did Ali Larter get another job or something? Seemed like a cold blooded way to get rid of her character.
Neither is HRG.
It looked like Sylar, but then we saw him elsewhere in the next scene. It must be somebody we know, however, or they wouldn't have been so careful to avoid showing his face.
By the way, although I continue to like this season a hell of a lot more than many of you, I agree with most of the logic complaints surrounding the assault on Primatech. And I think they were too pervasive to all be the result of the last-minute re-write. I thought at the end of last season that Peter was just too powerful to be an interesting or useful character...at first this season, it looked like they were de-powering him, but now that he's back to full force, he has become a serious storytelling liability again.
I wonder if that was an intentional homage to the Alias finale? That was the very first thing that I thought of.Yep. Buried alive and unable to die. Awful.
Damn, I was about to smeek that same thought when I saw your post. Yes, Arvin Sloan and Adam Monroe both met the same fate. And in both cases they are immortal and eternity is a very long time. So long that the earth will change quite a bit, and neither will ever really be buried for all eternity. They'll be back, and maybe they'll team up this time!I wonder if that was an intentional homage to the Alias finale? That was the very first thing that I thought of.
In one scene Bob says he will have to do something to get Claire to keep quiet and in the next scene West shows up at her house telling her he is there to stop her from leaving. At that point I was convinced that West was working for Bob, so I would not be surprised if he was the one that shot Nathan.I'm surprised that I'm the first to suggest this, but perhaps the shooter was West, intentionally dressed to resemble Noah. Remember, his reaction to Claire's plan to tell all was not exactly positive. And his conversation with her before he flew off did leave me wondering whether The Company had gotten to me in the interim.
Does anyone actually think Niki and Nathan are going to be dead when the show comes back?Instead they sacrifice Nikki and Nathan. Ugh...
Anything is possible now that they have Claire and Peter whose blood can cure anything. However, Nikki was inside the building when a large explosion destroyed it. I don't think she's walking away from that one.Does anyone actually think Niki and Nathan are going to be dead when the show comes back?
I am the same way. I don't let the plot holes or other inconsistencies worry me.While I am sure I will get bashed for saying it, I enjoyed it. You guys think too hard.
Matt overdid it. He made sure they would all pay attention to Nathan.How do you assisnate someone in a police station and just walk out? The cops were stopping all of the people other than the shooter?
You are looking for holes that aren't there. Adam spent YEARS with the group prior to being locked up and then THIRTY YEARS in their custody. He couldn't find out Hiro was Kaito's son? And who said he never said anything?So did Adam Monroe know that Kaito was Hiro's father?
When did he know it?
From the moment he met Kaito? If so, why didn't he say something? When he saw Hiro appear again?
This aspect is really full of holes.
Bingo! What a character does and doesn't do is debatable about the character but to assume it is bad writing is a bad assumption. Not everyone does the same thing as everyone else. Peter is not very swift on strategy. That has been proven over and over again.Peter is just plain stupid. He is like Barney Rubble with superpowers.
She becomes a true hero. The look on her face when they told her she saved them said she had never been thanked before and saw value in being heroic.I will say, though... Elle is really starting to grow on me. Now that she's seeing her father for the villain he truly is, I really hope that things get a lot more interesting with her.
Why does everything need to be 100% spelled out? The guy can BEND TIME! He could have gone off, stored Adam somewhere, gone and bought a coffin, dug the hole himself, put it in the ground, go back and get Adam.How did Hiro locate an empty, buried coffin? Did Hiro also have to fit in there in order to deposit Adam?
But you buy that pumping blood into a guy who has a bullet in his brain brings him back to life?You can't regenerate something if it continued to die. At best he can be in a constant state of flux -- cells dying from lack of oxygen, then regenerated because of his abilities. But he still needs the building blocks, if you will, of oxygen, water, fuel. You cannot generate energy, you can only change matter to energy and back. He is in a closed system where his body is using up resources (oxygen, water, food) with no ability to recreate those resources. Regeneration is simply replacing dead cells/organs with new ones, but without the resources to rebuild them, he's stuck. Sure, he will last longer than the average Joe, but forever? I'm not buying it.
No, she used leverage rather than brute strength. Her integrated multiple personalities do know how to fight.So did Nikki have her super strength when she beat up the kidnapper?
