The prophecies of Isaac's last painting was fulfilled on Monday's Heroes, pretty much just as the late artist depicted. But, show of virtual hands, did anyone really think it was gonna stick?

(As long as spoilers live inside me, they will remain alive for everyone. Or something. Here they come, at any rate.)

I was thinking of titling this post "These aren't the droids you're looking for," in honor of Parkman's new Jedi Mind Trick-esque ability. We'll get to that in a bit, but events involving the Bennet family superseded that. Specifically, HRG took one in the eye from Suresh, just as the paintings had laid out. (And who knew Suresh was such a good shot?)

The shooting capped a rolling-boulder sequence of events that found Bob, his "daughter" Elle and Suresh in Southern California, searching for Claire in order get her healing blood to Niki. And, you know, to perform a bunch of experiments on her, most likely. HRG, not surprisingly, doesn't take too kindly to that idea, going into full daddy-lockdown mode to protect Claire from his former boss and the increasingly at-sea Suresh, who is either the most naive scientist alive or has truly drunk the Company Kool-Aid.

Either way, it's not a pleasant development for the good doctor. The show hasn't laid enough groundwork for Suresh's coming around to Bob's way of thinking; two or three moral equivocations in, and he's toeing the Company line, when his sole purpose for going there initially was to take it down from within? Nuh-uh. Not good enough, even if he can say to himself that he's doing it to save Niki's life.

I suppose you could also argue that Suresh knew that Bob had drawn some of Claire's blood, and therefore knew that even if he did shoot his friend he could bring him back. That is indeed what happened, but I don't really think that was going through Suresh's mind. I do think Suresh believes he's doing good, and he believed the only way to keep doing good is to shoot HRG right through his HRGs.

One transfusion of his daughter's blood later, though, Noah Bennet is back among the living, albeit cooped up in a Company facility. I really couldn't make myself believe the show would off Jack Coleman -- he's one of the best actors in the ensemble, and narratively one of the most important characters too. And, really, it might have just about killed the show for a lot fans. Think Mr. Eko's death, only worse in terms of fan reaction.

Here's a question I hope to see explored in the next couple of weeks: Now that he's got Claire blood running through his veins, will he be able to heal again?

While HRG was saving his daughter (with, it should be noted, the help of flyboy West; maybe that's how HRG will break them up, by telling Claire how much he likes her beau), the rest of the episode concerned itself with Adam and his vendetta against the elders. It was here that we saw Parkman use his new skill -- which he discovered innocently enough during a conversation with Molly -- and which also allowed us to meet up with George Takei's Kaito Nakamura one more time.

From his father's funeral, Hiro blinks back one week (really? We're to believe all this stuff has happened in the course of just a week?) to try to stop Kaito from dying in the first place. The elder Nakamura resists, telling Hiro that even if he has god-like abilities, he doesn't get to play God. It's a message Hiro will then impart to his younger self, as he takes Kaito back to his wife's funeral in an effort to convince him to avoid death.

Hiro also realizes that he shouldn't monkey with time like that, so he monkeys with it to a lesser degree, freezing his father in mid-death plunge to see who his assailant is. It shocks him, and confirms every viewer's suspicion, to find out that it was Adam/Kensei himself who sent Kaito flying off the roof.

Parkman, meanwhile, uses his thought-control mojo on Angela Petrelli to learn that Adam is, basically, immortal. It seems that if you keep regenerating your cells for long enough, you stop aging. And Sylar thought he was a badass.

Angela also pleads with Matt not to make her reveal the name of the woman standing between Bob and Parkman's dad in the photo (who will be played, eventually, by Joanna Cassidy). "She just wants to be left alone," Angela insists. Matt apparently plows through, however, because at the end of the episode we see a sticky note with the name "Victoria Pratt" (though not this Victoria Pratt) above her face.

By my count that's two pretty decent episodes of Heroes in a row, but what are your thoughts? Did you see that final scene coming? What would you tell the show's creators to do if you had Parkman's power?

Comments

Last week sucked. But anyways, I'm very surprised at this week's episode, it was great. I love Angela Petrelli and am so glad she's not dead. Her efforts to keep Victoria Pratt secret were pretty hardcore. I can't believe we can't see her power yet though (she's gotta have one, just like Kaito whose power is also unknown). Parkman is definitely finally getting cool, while Suresh is just getting more retarded. I loved the Claire/HRG storyline - they're always the best in my opinion, when they come to a culminition like tonight's. I'm glad HRG is re-alive, and I love how he treated Elle - classic HRG. And West trusting him? Also awesome. Definitely a strong episode where Peter wasn't missed at all, and the absense of Niki and Los Boring Twins made the episode even better.

I was so hoping HRG would shoot Suresh. Elle might be turning good soon though. Parkman's abilities are awesome, I'm glad he didn't let Angela bully him like she does everyone else.

So it's OK to stop a NYC from blowing up but not to save your father from dying? What kind of logic is that? I guess one could argue about "the greater good", but how does letting Kaito die help anything?

I think it’s the best episode of this season. HRG is the best character of them all. I like that in the end, the epilogue speech came from Hiro and not from Suresh. I’m very looking forward to see the 2 episodes left. But sorry that the strike may damage this show that finally it’s getting somewhere.

James F | Nov 19, 2007 10:04:14 PM | #

Probably the best ep of the season. When they focus more on just a couple of plot threads they have more time to develop the story and the viewers get more involved. They need to do this more often.

Tonight's episode was pretty good. I'll admit my mouth dropped when Suresh shot HRG, but I was very glad with the ending. I'm curious why Suresh or Bob brought HRG back from the dead, but I guess we'll find that out soon.

I'm very dissapointed that we never got to find out what Kaito Nakamura's ability was. He was very good with the sword (when he taught Hiro) but he has to have some great ability. Also, I'm dying to know what Angela Petrelli's ability is.

When Parkman said that the woman in the picture (Victoria Pratt) was the only one left alive I knew the producers changed the storyline of the elders because right before Kaito died he said "Out of all of them, I didn't expect it to be you." Now, he knew it wasn't Angela Pretrelli, Linderman, Mr. Debeaux, Mr. Petrelli. Now that's 3 characters we knew died, and Angela who also had the godsend on her picture. There were 12 elders, and since Parkman says only one is left, that means 4 others we never met are dead (a white older woman, a black older woman, a latino older man, and a white older man). My point is why would Kaito say out of all of them I didn't expect it to be you if there was only the chance of the murderer being Victoria Pratt, Parkman's Dad, Bob, and Adam. I just feel that intially Tim Kring was going to go through all of the 12, then decided to just simply say 4 of the characters we never met are already dead. They are a great mystery and I would have enjoyed learning what abilities these 12 great elders all had. AND I wonder if there is a reason Angela's husband, Mr. Petrelli, has his faced smeared in the picture? Is it he may not be dead and they plan to cast him or something?

I am wondering why they dont have a stockpile of Adam Munroe's blood. He knows it heals people and used it to heal Nathan. Surely the company knows this too. We find out in the future that Nathan died in the first outbreak of the virus, so I guess he doesnt continue to heal after getting this blood. Therefore neither would HRG, you would think.

At first I thought that adam had the ability to travel through time as well and that perhaps he was like Peter and absorbed abilities. But if he is over 400 years old, he really must have just found out in Japan 1871 that he could heal.

Did Bob really resurrect Noah with Claire's blood? It seems debatable for him to keep Noah alive especially when he's very capable of killing Bob. I wouldn't be surprised if Adam recovered Noah and gave him his own blood for a greater purpose.

Skeptic | Nov 19, 2007 11:11:25 PM | #

---

When Nathan hits the mirror in "Kindness of Strangers," his hand is bloody and then bandaged in the following episode "Fight or Flight. So it is unlikely that the "healing" properties of the blood continue after the initial "injection."

Kristin Bell has been a very nice addition to the cast this year. She really adds something that was missing, that attitude in some respects, which, in correct doses, is good for the show. She also adds a character that, while on the surface seems to be simple (in her goals), beneath it all seems a textured character.

It'll be interesting to see Book 3 (if they get to show it). The storylines have been a bit smoother. Yes, the Suresh jumping sides thing wasn't done too well, but I hope it's because they decided to hurry and wrap up the storyline and move forward.

Tony | Nov 19, 2007 11:21:26 PM | #

Perhaps some of the 12 elders did not have powers. Angela Petrelli may not have powers, but her husband did which passed powers along to her sons. This may be the same for Victoria Pratt, Bob, and others. These might have been the scientists in the group.

KC | Nov 20, 2007 12:31:57 AM | #

This episode was great, although the Hiro storyline was really cheesy. I'm beginning to think that I just plain don't like Hiro...
Elle is hilarious. I loved her interactions with Suresh and HRG. It was also kinda neat to see West working with HRG. I guess this episode made me like HRG, I was surprisingly glad he didn't really die. Although, i can't believe he let Suresh shoot him...

edgar | Nov 20, 2007 12:34:08 AM | #

I was foaming at the mouth when I saw HRG take the bullet - probably because I'm as much a fan of Lost as I am of Heroes, that I have come to accept that "killing for the shock value" has become the standard on TV nowadays. And I couldn't believe Heroes would disrespect the fans like that by killing one of the few characters left people actually like.

So, I'm glad I was wrong. Now I'm ready to see why Noah was given the transfusion, but unfortunantly, that little tidbit will probably be somewhere in the next volume, which we may never see due to the Writer's Strike :(

But I can tell you one thing; this is all leading towards a final showdown between Adam/Peter and Hiro/Claire. The fate of the world will be once again at stake!

Sean | Nov 20, 2007 12:39:58 AM | #

Meh. This episode sucked badly. I never liked Noah and his Hitler-like actions. The fact that they make Mohinder look bad in order to elevate Noah is sickening to me.

Berceuse | Nov 20, 2007 2:12:35 AM | #

KC, Bob does have a power. He can turn things to gold with a touch of his hand. He showed Suresh when he recruited him. Also, I was surprised when they showed Bob's face when HRG was shot, he seemed slightly sad.

I would enjoy seeing a show focused on how the company started back in the 70s or at least an explanation of it and the elders like a show focused on when the picture was taken. Linderman had gray hair and the rest didn't look all that young so I get the impression that picture was taken maybe 10 or so years ago. Just something to finally explain the Company.

Jerry | Nov 20, 2007 3:57:07 AM | #

---

Is it possible that Bob was so desperate to get Claire's blood in order to save Noah, which he knew would get shot based on Isaac's paintings?

Could Bob have been testing Suresh's loyalties?

Angela Petrelli's power seems to be clairvoyance... remember back when Claire tried to run away, Angela was right there where Claire ended up?

Claude | Nov 20, 2007 5:02:39 AM | #

Thank God! HRG is alive!!! I didn't think for a minute HRG would be gone for good. He is a fan favorite. If I'm watching Heroes this season, he is the main reason. Jack Coleman, I salute you. And finally we saw him shirtless!! That was a nice bonus.

dwirr | Nov 20, 2007 5:37:17 AM | #

Hey Claude,

I believe you're right about Angela's power and i've said this from the beginning. It's some kind of clairvoyance or she dreams about the future. If you remember the first episode of Heroes season 1, it starts off with Peter daydreaming about flying. It's really the first power we ever see him use. He had to get this from his mother. He also dreamed about him exploding as well. And last season when Nathan and Peter were going to confront Angela about Peter dying, she said to them she already knew, she's always known.

Greg | Nov 20, 2007 6:19:59 AM | #

---

Hmm, i think Claude and Greg hit the nail on the head about Mamma Petrelli. Peter hadn't even met Isaac yet and he didn't dream the future, he painted it. Overall, a great episode, but i just keep wondering why it took so long for them to kick it into gear. I think that Suresh shooting Noah was a stretch, but i can understand why he's less willing to bring them down. he's seen the danger that the superpowered folks could present if they are not controlled in some fashion, ala Nikki and Elle. Also, he really does think that Claire's blood can cure Nikki and that is his primary motivation. However, i doubt that will be the case since the virus has mutated. I still think the virus is somehow linked to Adam and his blood or at least the mutated one is.

steve | Nov 20, 2007 6:33:32 AM | #

I think they kept HRG alive b/c it's the only way of convincing Claire to willingly join the company.

The World | Nov 20, 2007 7:14:05 AM | #

I agree with Skeptic: from Noah's 'holy s@#t' reaction when he woke up, my first thought was that is was Adam who brought him back to life with his blood

matt | Nov 20, 2007 7:19:05 AM | #

---

I kinda of wonder if they are setting up for something big about the effects of being healed by Adam or Claire's blood. On one hand we have Adam who we know is dangerous and has had an interesting negative effect on Nathan. Now we we'll see if there are any side-effects from Claire's blood.

Also, maybe regentative's blood mixed with the virus is what causes the outbreak of the Shanti virus. It would seem to be unstoppable because if you mix it with somthing that heals attacks, it only stands to reason the virus would heal from any attacks by a cure. I'm not sure if they will be able to save Niki without spreading the virus.

Denise | Nov 20, 2007 7:19:36 AM | #

This season really has been a wash. There's good moments, Matt using his powers especially since in "Five Years Gone" he was a bastard ripping thoughts from HGR's head. Claire's kidnapping was good. Then there are moments that are cheesy, Hiro talking to his younger self. Then there are moments that are just inconsistent, Suresh. In Season 1, Suresh had a clear mission when he (attempted) to shot Sylar he had reason. When he worked with Sylar it was understand that he didn't know it was him and stepped up when he realized it was. Now the writer are confused about his character and made him into a plot device.
But that aside, there have been some really good moments.

eva | Nov 20, 2007 7:55:02 AM | #

---

Well, Adam's first cure, Nathan, was revealed by his mother (may be a lie) as the first victim of the epidemic. Perhaps Adam is using his blood as a plague?

Claire's ability is quite similar to Adam's, but is it the same? What happens if her blood mixes with Adam's?

As long as they don't swerve the "Adam is really Claire's dad and not Nathan."

pakopako | Nov 20, 2007 8:03:14 AM | #

The last few episodes have been great. I was shocked when Suresh shot HRG. I was so pissed that they would kill him off like that. The last seen with him being brought back was such a relief, and who knows whose blood was used to bring him back. Jack Coleman should get an emmy node. For the first time this season i actually liked West. Elle shows the potential to be a really interesting character. Only 2 episodes left and so many questions yet to be answered. Why cant Sylar use his power. Will Peter go back to the future to retreive his girl friend, or if they change the future...will she still be there. I hope we see more of Parkmans dad. We need to have several villians keeping our Heroes off balance.

M.F. | Nov 20, 2007 8:15:45 AM | #

I'm pretty sure Angela has the power of persuasion. She used it to make Nathan's wife keep their secret. The camera's focused in on her touching his wife on her shoulder.

What was the final word of the episode, spoken by HRG as he sat up on the gurney?

cj | Nov 20, 2007 8:37:58 AM | #

A good episode with lots of action. Wow Suresh really did go native. Gee, Bob turned his own daughter into an killer, Suresh, meet Mr. Clue.

I agree with Skeptic that the location of HRG is still in doubt. We have seen Adam's blood heal someone else, but not Claire's. Why waste Claire's blood on HRG if you need it for the virus.

Could be that Adam now has HRG and is planning to use him as part of his war against the others.

Also, why did the Bennett family stay in the house? Bob knows where they live; shouldn't they take off asap.

jbw | Nov 20, 2007 9:07:36 AM | #

The thing that stuck out the most to me was the attitude of young Hiro at his mother's funeral. That was no time to be playing "Takezo Kensei" and chatting with strangers. I would think even a child that young would be consumed with grief. If he was old enough to become alarmed at the possibility of his father's death, he should have been more upset about his mother's death that had just happened.

Siansonea | Nov 20, 2007 9:57:55 AM | #

In reference to this:

Here's a question I hope to see explored in the next couple of weeks: Now that he's got Claire blood running through his veins, will he be able to heal again?

The answer is probably not. Think about Nathan...he got blood from Adam. And when Nathan and Parkman duked it out...Nathan didn't heal instantaneously.

Great episode thus far!

Chris | Nov 20, 2007 10:29:58 AM | #

two possiblities that I see for HRG's return...one Adam being interested in somebody willing to take the company down...or two that this is an "Alias" moment whereby Suresh & HRG planned it all along...

Victoria Pratt can conrol the weather. Certan things in the show are conroled by god won't new york eventauly be distroyed? and the holyy shi- thing was exactly like when clare came bac to life, so was ressurecting a common place in that house? and they have to kill someone eventualy sooo my money is on Bob by Clare in front of Elle or Elle kills him. mostly because they(the writers) don't seem to like parents. Nathan is a parent too.

Predictions | Nov 20, 2007 12:32:56 PM | #

I agree with most of what's been written, probably the best episode of a so-so season. It is interesting that HRG is the coolest and arguably most popular character in a show about people with superhuman powers! Jack Coleman deserves much praise and I hope he gets some attention when Emmy time rolls around.

Will | Nov 20, 2007 12:40:05 PM | #

I cannot understand how Suresh can be that stupid. I mean when he shot HRG my mouth dropped open in slow motion. I honestly thought he was going to shoot Elle. I don't think West is going anywhere for now.

i sort of liked how noah's "oh shi--" was reminiscent of his daughter's when she came back from supposedly being dead on the morgue table. i was pretty relieved when they brought him back at the end. he's one of my favorite characters.

i didn't get my badass special effects fight last season between peter and sylar. so, i'm hoping there will be one between peter and adam. meh. i can dream.

(i guess i'm one of the few who doesn't give a damn about that annoying little...hiro...character.)

Jimmy, my husband thought Noah said "Home" also. A very interesting reaction, if so.

Rick P., I noticed you used quotation marks around daughter when referring to Bob and Elle's relationship. I have a little trouble buying it myself. On the other hand, I can well imagine Elle was "given" to Bob as Claire was to Noah, only not as young. I think if Elle ever remembers what they did to her as a child, payback will be a bee-yotch.

meggins | Nov 20, 2007 2:14:22 PM | #

To be honest, I find reading these comments more interesting than the direction this show is taking. You guys bring up lots of good points!

I'm still not convinced that Angela has either the clairvoyant or persuasion abilities. That would be way too similar to what we've seen already with Eden/Matt's persuasion and Isaac's future eyes. I'm hoping it's something far more interesting than that.

Elle is now my favorite character on Heroes. Love her attitude!

Though we've seen a couple paintings come true (like Mohinder taking the shot), did we ever see that final HRG dead with Claire/West in the background? It looked more like it was nighttime inside a warehouse in the painting, and not outside. Plus it looked to me like Claire and West were kissing.

gus | Nov 20, 2007 2:31:36 PM | #

I'm not convinced that Linderman is truly dead, and I'm wondering if HRG has Linderman's healing powers to thank rather than the blood of an indestructible, being.

It seems the company may have been using adams blood for something and when he escaped, Bob knew Claire had a similar power and chose to get it from her. The shows just getting good and yes, thank God HRG is alive, though they played it well when West had to carry Claire away in the sunset.

Jason | Nov 20, 2007 3:11:11 PM | #

Isn't Adam one of the original 12? If so, where is he in the picture?
I'm interested in seeing the overall family tree, or origins of everyone. If i remember correctly that was the original premise for this volume, then it was changed to include the current heroes. I still think Adam is somehow related to all the heroes, as he seems to be the original hero.

Shaggysteve | Nov 20, 2007 3:26:54 PM | #

I think this episode was so good because we didn't have to waste time with the twins. I am sad that they are so boring that I even dread seeing Sylar.
Good thoughts on Mrs. Petrelli's powers. Then again, it could have been the old man's powers (you know, the old guy he was looking after...) as he was one of the originals and Peter was spending alot of time with him when this all started.
Also, I am assuming Bob has a power, or at least it runs in his family, since Elle has powers. I would like to know more of her back story...
Oh and Suresh is becoming just a story tool. He is so inconsistant, it doesn't even make sense.

Mandy | Nov 20, 2007 3:33:53 PM | #

It would've been cool if it was the other Victoria Pratt ... along with her powers from Mutant X. Anyhow, it seems likely that Pratt has something to do with Adam/Takezo. I'm wondering if it might be a blood relationship. or she has the one power that can stop Adam (but that would really make those twins useless, as the assumption seems to have been that they would off Adam somehow.

It'll be interesting how it plays out, but it's good they are wrapping things up. I wonder if things may be a tad spotty down the stretch due to the adjustments, but that's better than before, and it's getting the story done.

are they ever gonna tell us the elders powers so far parkmans dad and linderman are the only two whos powers we know. kaitos dead and we still dont kno his power and im worried we never will as for angela it would suck if they did this but ive mulled the possibility she doesnt hav one maybe im wrong but i dont remember her ever saying she had one maybe she did last season and i forgot, my point is i think her hubby had one which would explain her little induction into the club if she doesnt have a power. the only other thing i have to say is does it tick anyone else off that if she and kaito do hav powers theyve never used em like say i dont know when some one was trying to kill them? in closing bring back jessica i wanna see her rip someone in half could you imagine jess and elle teaming up between the two of them world domination would be a sinch

If you look at the clip after HRG was shot, Bob appears to be sad - like he lost a brother in arms. There is way more to the company's history than we will ever know. That's why they brought him back, or so I think. Looking forward to a showdown between Claire and Elle one day.

Best episode of the season. By my count that makes three good - great episodes. I was surprised by the ending. I like HRG and I'm glad he will continue to be in the show.

Could Claire and Elle be sisters?
The Company had HRG take Claire, so couldn't it be reasonable that they are sisters.

When they looked at each other in passing it was like they were looking in a mirror?

The look on Elle's face at the end of the episode looked like she was doing some heavy thinking, maybe because she might have been told that her sister was dead from her using electricity on her?

I say that because everyone that has a power seems to have a parent that has a power. If BOb is Elle's dad then couldn't Bob be Clarie's dad?

Wouldn't that be a twist?

John L | Nov 21, 2007 7:32:27 AM | #

Correction to the above.

Could they be step-sisters?

We know that Nathan is Claires real dad and her mom is the fire starter from the trailer park. But who is Elle's mom?

We know that Bob is Elle's dad, or so we are lead to believe that he is her dad?

John L | Nov 21, 2007 8:41:32 AM | #

I don't think their step-sisters. I think it was just to show how Claire could have turned out if the Company had her.

For Gosh Sakes - just give those writers their due pay and lets see the rest of these episodes! What do the studio heads make? It's gotta be at least ten times what the writers make - spread the wealth boys and just get on with it!

I don't think Bob is Elle's actual dad. HRG said that she was brought into the company and tested on. I guess it's possible, but I really think she was just put into his care the way Claire was given to HRG.

No HRG mentions that Bob is Elle's father. If you guys go read Mr. Chandra Shuresh's book, you will find out that some of the older heroes were known to Mr. Suresh (senior) although their powers weren't revealed, you get to know their names.

I think Angela P. has the power of persuasion, like Eden but more subtle. As pointed out by posters above, she persuaded Nathan's wife to take the kids and leave, and she seemed to persuade Peter to recover some of his memories. Not that she activated the memories, but she persuaded Peter to try to do something he didn't think could be done.

I've thought for a long time that Peter's first exhibited power was the dream foresight, and that he got it from Charles Deveaux. They focused on that in early episodes, and if I remember correctly, they showed Charles sharing one of Peter's flying dreams just before he died.
