Now, that was a good Heroes episode. Sylar is back with the rest of the season one cast! I feel Sylar hasn’t really fit into this season at all. It’s almost as if his role this season is irrelevant to the main plot. Maybe he’ll prove me wrong with next week’s season finale.
There are a few things I didn’t really get. Adam Monroe (aka Takezo Kensei) told Peter Petrelli earlier that if he (Adam) could be killed, then The Company would have done that. However, this episode he claims that getting shot in the head is something that he (nor Peter) can recover from. Maybe The Company didn’t kill him, not because he couldn’t be killed, but because Adam is a valuable research subject. And Adam lied to Peter in order to get him to go along with him.
Actually, didn’t Peter die in the future, due to the Shanti virus? At least that’s what we were told when Peter travelled into the future. But I thought that he had the same healing power as Claire and Adam? Perhaps the virus is so powerful that even he couldn’t heal from? Or maybe Claire’s (and hence Peter’s) healing power isn’t as potent as Adam’s.
I’m pretty psyched about next week’s episode, Powerless. A battle ensues pitting the Petrelli brothers against Hiro and Matt Parkman. What I’d like to know is why Nathan and Peter would all of the sudden willingly fight against Hiro and Matt. Why would Peter trust Adam over Hiro? I guess we’ll find out next week how everything unfolds.
