Don't think Hiro can kill Adam. From Highlander we know an immortal can only be killed by being beheaded by another immortal.

Only Claire can kill Adam. Hiro would need to freeze time on Adam to allow Claire to behead Adam.

Lately these Heroes threads are starting to remind me of the "Rate this Girl" threads.

Someone posts a pic of a 7-8, then a bunch of internet nerds respond with "She's a 4 tops, maybe a 5 if she lost 15 lbs."

Claire's cut off her toe before and it regrew - I imagine it'd be the same with a head.

So would the head grow a new body or would the body grow a new head? Or both?

jog,

"From Highlander we know an immortal can only be killed by being beheaded by another immortal."

Where was it stated that it had to be another immortal doing the beheading?

It doesn't. At least in the series. I remember multiple episodes with Rogue Watchers killing immortals, and at least one who gets decapitated by a...train?

It was from the movie version in 1986 with Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery. Of course I may have remembered it wrong or the rules have since changed.

Adam seems to think that if he is beheaded he dies.

Writers strike ftl

I thought this was a good episode and I'll keep up with this show. But there is far too much hate in this thread.

i thought this was a strong episode.

there were two good fight scenes if you count the part where hiro does something unexpected and shows back up on terrace to identify adam. and the final scene at the beach was i thought one of the better scenes in either season.

i don't care about the dubious science of west lifting HRG into the air or claire cushioning his 200 foot fall. i do care about events proceeding in a logical way that is true to the characters as we've come to know them. there are a dozen retarded ways that isaac's paintings could've come true, but what did happen was HRG has consistently shown he will protect claire at all costs, and he put mohinder in a situation where he was forced to make a tough choice. that is good writing. (him coming back to life is wack.)

would you rather elle be handcuffed uber-tight with electrical wire, or would you rather see a fight scene between her and claire? and how was HRG supposed to know her lightning bolts had that kind of range, anyway?

no mexicans helped too
