Hiro's just not very good with his teleportation yet. He's only used it in a couple instances, relying mostly on stopping time. Other heroes have shown the need for practice (ie: the telepathic cop or Nathan Petrelli) in the honing of talents.

true - that would explain not being able to control it (e.g going 6 months into the past instead of just one day) but it seemed like he couldn't make it work at all. this was the first time that absolutely nothing happened when he attempted to use his power.

The time travel storyline is starting to unravel a bit.... Hiro says he can't change the past. If that's the case, why did future-Hiro travel to the past to talk to Peter in the subway?

In addition, we know Hiro did change the past, he just wasn't able to change it in the way he wanted to. When he and Ando first entered the diner, the waitress mentions she's reading a Japanese phrasebook and in this episode we see Hiro give her a phrasebook 6 months ago. However, how could she NOT recognise Hiro? She has super memory but she's forgotten Hiro and the trip to Japan?

Either Hiro has changed the past, or someobody (The Hatian?) messed with her memory sometime between the event of "Six Months Ago" and now.

Except nobody else in the diner recognised Hiro either when apparently he worked there for a while. When they first walked in the door, everyone should have been all "Hey, Hiro! Where the hell have you been?"

And this is what's wrong with time travel stories.

Did anyone else catch that Chandra Suresh found something in his tests that caused him to believe that Sylar could become dangerous? That's why I thought he dismissed him so quickly.

I thought the whole point of the "I'm dying" was to show Hiro that even if she got on the plane to Tokyo etc...nothing would change..she was going to die soon regardless

Yeah, we don't actually know that Charlie's brains were picked apart. This was implied when it happened, but maybe it was from the aneurysm? Obv this doesn't explain Sylar's presence.

we saw blood dripping down her forehead onto her face and the reaction of the sheriff who says she was too nice a person to "die like that" (paraphrasing) - that's no aneurysm.

All: I actually think this episode didn't completely suck!

Wookie: I feel like it can't be DL because it seems to obvious to have him in the gunsight and hear the gunshot and then have him actually get shot next week.

Just to reiterate something I said in a previous hero thread: All of Issac's paintings have come true. While Peter saved Claire, all the visuals remained unchanged. In addition, remember Peter had to finish the paiting with the cheerleader lying dead at Sylar's feet. Peter lacked Issac's technical skill so there was no way to tell the identity of the cheerleader in that painting.

It's entirely possible they saved the wrong cheerleader.

[/ QUOTE ]

While the painting came true (cheerleader dead), you're right that they couldn't tell the identity of the cheerleader. Nevertheless, I think they saved the right cheerleader. Claire was the one with the powers, not uber-bitch Jessie. Remember, just because they saw something in the painting doesn't mean they interpreted it correctly.

If Sylar got Claire's power, the world would've been doomed perhaps? Hence, save the cheerleader, save the world!

Some thoughts:

1) Kinda funny to see Coroner David from CSI as the telekenetic guy that Sylar kills.
2) Did Nathan not have to explain to his wife wtf he was doing 100 feet above the car when it crashed?
3) Does anyone else think Micah and Sylar have essentially the same power? While we haven't seen Micah's powers in play (save for that time with the broken phone) - can't they both see things that are broken and fix them? Could have interesting plot implications. I don't think Sylar actually eats or absorbs the brains of his victims. I think he studies them, like a watch, and makes his own mind work just like them.
4) If the Haitian can neutralize powers - why could Nathan fly away when he was cornered outside the hospital in Vegas?
5) Good bit of continuity with 'Lauren' quitting the cheerleading team because Jackie said she was a [censored] (when in reality we know that the QB tried to raped her too).
6) Pixie Chick looks way hotter with long hair.

Does anybody else think that the Season 1 cliffhanger won't be the nuclear explosion?
