This serves also as a commenting response to aibo's rant in her blog about the episode (since I can't comment there I'll comment hereee LOL). Beware of the SPOILERIFIC content beyond the click... perhaps you will actually pay attention to my warning this time, considering it isn't about Takki? LOL...
WTF #1:
WTF IS PETER DOING WITH JESSICA-WHO-REALLY-IS-NIKI-CALLING-HERSELF-JESSICA?????? Seriously, this is like the BIGGEST WTF of the world!!! Seriously!!! So Niki's plot is THAT hopelessly unsalvagable that they had to hook her up with the most important hero of them all in order to keep her around huh? Else she will serve no purpose? Aside being Peter Petrelli's sex toy?! GOD, THAT IS JUST SO LOW. Niki needs to be killed off, PERIOD. She serves no freakin' purpose to the story, and I STILL haven't seen what is it exactly her brilliant "powers" are aside schizophrenic multiple-personality disorder borderline spiritual possession!
WTF #2:
WHO DIED AND MADE PARKMAN HRG??? Worse even, HRG never really killed the heroes but Parkman he's soooo armed and dangerous and a superhero killing machine isn't he? You know, my favorite characters is actually Claire, Peter and Parkman but dude, seriously... I'm just about to boot Parkman off and replace him with the next in line, which would be Nathan Petrelli (COME ON, Adrian Pasdar totally rocks!!!) but...
WTF #3:
NATHAN PETRELLI IS DEAD??!?!?!??!?!?!!!
WTF #4:
...AND SYLAR IS NOT DEAD???!?!?!??!?!?!!
And apparently he killed Candice too, thus allowing him to shapeshift, and D.L., thus he can walk through walls, and Ted Sprague, thus he is also radioactive (Wait, now I'm not so sure he was emitting Ted Sprague's EMP?! Apparently it was ICE??? And Peter is FIRE??? *THUD* OMG COOLNESS!!!!)???! WTF IT'S BEEN 5 YEARS AND WHY IS SYLAR STILL ON THE LOOSE AND EATING EVERYONE'S BRAINS!!!
WTF #5:
...AND HE MANAGED TO KILL CLAIRE??!?!??!!
SO HAVE WE BEEN WASTING OUR TIME WITH THE WHOLE "SAVE THE CHEERLEADER, SAVE THE WORLD" WATCHING THEM ALL RUNNING AROUND FOR 19 EPISODES SAVING CLAIRE AND SUCCEEDING TO SAVE CLAIRE ONLY TO SEE HER GET HER SKULL CUT OPEN IN EPISODE 20?!?!?!
WTF #6:
ANDO IS DEAD TOO?!?!??!! AND D.L.??? AND MICAH??? NOT THAT I CARE FOR THE LAST TWO BUT WTF? WHO ISN'T DEAD???! Oh yeah, NIKI ISN'T DEAD!!! Of all people who isn't dead, it's stupid pointless purposeless Niki who hasn't had much of a career change in 5 years. From internet voyeurism to exotic dancing... po-tay-to po-tah-to.
WTF #7:
WHY.T.F is Mohinder still so stupid??! Throughout few episodes leading to 18 I think I was screaming at Mohinder all the way OMG YOU ARE A SCIENTIST BUT YOU ARE SUCH A MORON because he failed to realize the creepy creepy man he's traveling with is actually SYLAR the creepy creepy brain-eater who killed Mohinder's own father. And voila, five years later, he still doesn't realize that the President in front of him, giving him all those WTF orders, IS AGAIN, SYLAR!!!
Btw, DID FAT-ASS PARKMAN KILL HRG??!?!??!! @_@
aibo is soooo gonna kill me for this but I have actually been highly-anticipating the premiere of Future Peter Petrelli's SCARFACE XDDDDD Yes, it is blasphemy to his beautiful but lopsided post-stroke face, but I think it's super sexy XD You know, kinda like big-strong-superhero-battle-scar kind of sexy ==33 Speaking of which, isn't there an anime hero with that same kind of scar ripping across his face? I vaguely recall such a character but I can't remember which for the life of me. I don't know why I keep thinking Zechs Marquise, Sakurazuka Seishirou or Sumeragi Subaru. None of them have scars across their faces, do they? @_@ What I don't get is HOW Peter Petrelli could STILL have a scar on his face, considering he supposedly already has Claire's regenerating powers??? I thought THE SCAR was going to be from that rendezvous he had with Sylar in Ep.18 but now that I've seen THE SCAR (Yeah, I will continue to refer it as THE SCAR coz I've soooo been waiting for it since like... Ep.8??? Or 7??? When Future Hiro visited Present Peter on that train and told him that he "looks different without THE YOUR SCAR")... woah, that came from something else entirely. Like someone smashed an axe to the middle of his face!
And even though Future Peter's hair is a bit tad too greasy for me... I like it better than his stupid floppy hair that always makes me wanna pull it off his scalp XD I read that even Milo Ventimiglia himself requested a haircut for his character but was rejected. But I guess at least this remedies the floppy hair brush-across-face that Peter Petrelli always does in earlier episodes? I REALLY liked his hair all slicked back like that. Makes him look a bit older, manlier, more butch (LOL), more RAWR SuperPeter instead of meek floppy-haired NursePeter. I guess he already started adapting that hairstyle in Ep.19 after he came back to "life"? Except that in Ep.19 his hair doesn't look like it's greasy, it just looks like still-wet-newly-washed-hair and standing there in the Petrelli mansion, Peter actually looks SOAPY!!! HAHAHAA. All shaven and washed = LOOKS SOAPY!!! XD But in the future... meh... it just looks like all grease and rancid smell XD
But oh OK, I do admit, I'm slowly regaining the love back for Peter Petrelli in the last 2 episodes (I lost it in the first 3 seasons of Gilmore Girls THANKS TO JESS, although his return in season 6 was pretty . damn . hot!!!) But yeah, PETER PETRELLI TOTALLY ROCKS!!! Especially with that hideously sexy scar XDDDD
This series is so outrageous! How many episodes are there left? I seriously can't imagine how the hell is this plot going to continue into Season 2?! Is it still going to be this whole "Save the cheerleader, save the world, stop the bomb from exploding and kill Sylar" arc? Or is it going to be something else entirely different as rumoured? I just can't imagine how they would go into a whole different storyline every season (if THAT's really gonna happen), which means there will be new characters and all? God, that so doesn't work for me! I don't wanna bond with a whole group of characters for one entire season and have them all thrown out the window the next? ...unless they use the same actors to play entirely different characters in an entirely different storyline, but that would be so hard to relate because I'd always think of them as their original characters! Seriously, I'm so curious in the direction that the writers and producers of Heroes is gonna go to in the 2nd season. Bah, I heard Zachary Quinto a.k.a. Sylar already signed up for the second season. And I also heard that annoying-dead-bitch Simone is actually going to literally come back to life. So Sylar is still alive and Simone is back? WTF!
THIS IS BLASPHEMY!!! THIS IS MADNESS!!!!
MADNESS?
THIS . IS . HEROES!!!!
XD
Brace yourselves for a Sylar-centric episode soon. Is it the next episode? Apparently, we're NOT gonna hate Sylar anymore after watching that episode? I don't hate Sylar... I actually kinda think he's cool... in his very own disturbing... and creepy way... that is... ^^;;;
P.S.
Isn't Claire the prettiest girl on Earth or what!!! I just absolutely ADORE Claire!!!
