were those people really claire's parents?
or someone Mr. Glasses just hired to pretend to be her parents...they seemed sketch

10/31/2006 5:59:49 AM

considering the guy said "let us know if there's anything else you need" in the most sinister tone possible, i'd say they're probably fake

10/31/2006 6:33:21 AM

Most likely fake....the conversation at the car pretty much guides us towards that

good episode last night


I hope jericho gives me something good tomorrow

10/31/2006 8:49:14 AM

Yeah, no big wow, factor but alot of answers....DL innocent...so maybe he can be a rogue good guy...

Plot line is definatley rolling along. Great call on Eden, was thinking it, but really had no concrete evidence to it, so I thought maybe I was reading into it.

Next week is looking pretty good...I am ready for the next episode...they should turn the show into 90 min weekly show or even two shows a week....be the first to do something different...

anyone think Eden is a mutant also

10/31/2006 10:14:09 AM

yeah i figured she'd be a "hero" or something, but didn't think she'd be bad.

10/31/2006 10:19:12 AM

I'm sure plenty of people saw that coming.

her suddenly running into everyone and the story seemed way too convinient. How nosy she was and interested in him...

I think someone mentioned that in an earlier post too.

I really wouldn't be too suprised if she is a mutant of some sort too though, considering how her role is pretty big / getting more important

10/31/2006 10:27:58 AM

Okay I had to post something.

I love the show too and have my own guesses about the symbol. I think it's similiar to Wolverine and that the whole group at a young age were experimented on and branded with the tattoo.

I also think Niki will be back sorta like Phoenix in Xmen.

I'm curious what the boy's power will be??

10/31/2006 11:18:15 AM

^ good thought, the mark on all those that been experimented on...but not all of them have the mark, they more or less just have the mark somewhere around them or shows up near them

I don't think Eden, Mr. Bennet, and that black guy are evil. But they are up to something.

10/31/2006 1:22:43 PM

It's starting to seem like the typical:

bad guy, sketchy team of guys that are somehow government related and you don't know what side they are on till much later, and good guys

trifecta

i was kind of thinking the same thing

like how the QB had his mind fucked with by that guy in the hospital . . . maybe that happened to all of them at some point and the QB will now end up with powers

10/31/2006 5:50:22 PM

I don't think those were really her parents, but the conversation between Claire and her mom near the end of the episode makes me wonder if perhaps they're associates of Mr. Bennet and Claire's real parents.

I hope Niki isn't dead, but her character seemed pretty damn evil and out of control. Whoever predicted a Jekyll & Hyde situation for her nailed it on the head. Why did she set D.L. up in the first place? Is she that evil? And if she's so evil ... is D.L. good?

Eden could easily have an ability as well. Bennet rolls with at least one we know of. He also told her on the phone that he knew she could convince Mohinder to stay in NY, maybe that has something to do with her ability if she has one?

I'll be surprised if the whole group had been tested on at a young age. That symbol shows up places like Claire's Geometry book. The only person I've seen it on so far was Niki I think.

Micah tells D.L. that mom has a secret too. I wonder if he knew about her having the money upstairs. She climbs out of the attic and D.L. is standing there. Did he hear her rummaging around and get curious, or did Micah know something and tell dad?

I think the powers come from a genetic reason. I don't think the black guy is changing people's genes, but maybe he is. If he was going around making new Heroes with his powers, I'd think that Mr. Bennet would put him to a better use. I've been wrong plenty before, but that would really surprise me if the QB wound up with an ability.

10/31/2006 7:19:19 PM

what's up w/ that indian winona ryder looking bitch being evil? that makes me mad

10/31/2006 7:20:26 PM

when is suresh gonna stop being so worthless? basically all he's done is whine pseudo-intellectually and be overly incredulous despite a lot of evidence otherwise. i guess thats the writers, but he's being made into a big pussy

10/31/2006 7:55:56 PM

Just watched the episode and some new theories, take them as you will.

-I keep thinking about the scar Hiro mentions with Peter. Earlier I had mentioned maybe Peter needed to be around Claire to heal (in the previous post I said to make babies, but that was dumb) But maybe Sylar gets to Peter, cut's his brains and he somehow manages to use Claires healing power to stay alive. Seems like Peter has a HUGE role in all this. The hole in this is that Claire would be able to heal from Sylar but apparently she can't according to the painting. Hmmmmm.

-Is Hiro's do over what's happening now? or is the do over a foreshadow of future episodes. It seems like the do-over would be what's going on in these episodes, otherwise the show would become redundant (Groundhog day like) So far he's successful in the whole save the cheerleader thing because it got to Eden and to Mr Bennett by word of mouth.

-I'm guessing we've figured out the whole RNA/DNA strand thing that Claire's mom mentions has to do with the mysterious S symbol? If the cleaner (Bald black man with Bennett, so I think) had the obvious necklace on and saw the obvious tattoo on Niki in the hotel and Bennett interacts with his daughter that has the symbol on her geometry book, then this symbol should relate directly to Bennett, maybe as some sort of Protection seal he places on others?

I can't type anymore. This show is crippling.

[Edited on October 31, 2006 at 8:10 PM. Reason : blah]

10/31/2006 8:07:55 PM

I think Hiro's friend is going to be a super surprise sleeper evil guy.

10/31/2006 8:10:10 PM

I think it's pretty obvious that those weren't Claire's real parents.

I'm not sure about Niki. She might be dead, or she might not, I don't think it matters at this point. And I'm fairly certain DL is a good guy (everything he's said/done has been good things).

Bennett is also a big player, and I think right now he's probably not a good guy, might he still might be. I would guess that he's responsible for Claire not being with her real parents (probably having them killed) and was using Mohinder's dad's research to find mutants and somehow experiment on them or whatever. We don't know what he did to the cop guy from Alias. He wanted Mohinder to help him unravel his dad's research, and his dad either had info Bennet wanted to use for bad things, or was going to take the whole thing public, so he had him killed. I don't think Eden has any powers either, but the only indication she doesn't is that she hasn't used them, which isn't too strong.

Micah I think knows his mom's secret, and he could have either told DL that she's been acting weird, that she had the money, and/or that she was acting nutz, or something else completely different, and DL just happened to find out on his own (he CAN walk through walls and stuff, so maybe he was in the attic and saw the money). I wouldn't mind if she was dead though, because I never liked her character.

And the powers absolutely are genetic, why would there be any doubt of this?

10/31/2006 9:03:33 PM

i can't remember what claire's mother said about DNA? someone remind me

10/31/2006 9:07:26 PM

THey were trying to find her parents for some DNA screening because "something was wrong with her chromosomes". Claire then asked what was wrong, and she said she just had a cough or something.

10/31/2006 9:10:57 PM

she has an extra chromosome

10/31/2006 10:43:35 PM

why did claire look so shocked when he mother mentioned her brother?

10/31/2006 11:29:25 PM

Mohinder has been pretty gay lately. I hate him flip-flopping on finishing his father's research. It will be interesting to find out if he actually returns to India, and if he does, then when will he return? I can't say that I remember seeing any paintings by Isaac that involved him.

Malsi, interesting thought about Peter using Claire's power. Although someone pointed out to me that when Claire uses her power it doesn't leave a scar, so don't put all of your eggs in that basket. If Claire had something jammed in to the back of her head she wouldn't be able to heal ...

I don't think we are watching Hiro's do-over right now. Are you sure Hiro didn't cause a rift by the 'save the cheerleader' message reaching Mr. Bennet?

The S symbol shows up more than just with people around Bennet. The first times I saw it were in the paintings in Isaac's apartment, the computer code left by Chandra Suresh on the key drive, and Peter's drawing in the hospital. Not to mention it's also on the cover of Chandra Suresh's book, and it didn't offer him much protection.

I'm still not convinced that those weren't Claire's parents, although I think there's a better chance that they weren't than they were. I wouldn't think that Bennet would have her parents killed though. If those weren't them, I do expect them to show up at some point. You guys think Bennet is more sinister than I do. I just don't see him as a murderer. You think he was working with Chandra? I don't know why Chandra didn't go public after he found Sylar. From the conversation on the answering machine it sounds like Chandra knew he'd found one of the special people he was looking for.

If D.L. didn't kill Niki, he's a good guy. If he did, the jury is still out for me.

Lyle Bennet, played by Randall Bentley, is the younger brother of Claire Bennet. He has a stereotypical dislike for his sister.

11/1/2006 11:50:08 AM

Does Peter know that his power is just borrowing other peoples' powers?

11/4/2006 10:41:16 PM

I think he's starting to suspect that it is.

11/4/2006 10:44:49 PM

Yah, especially after the most recent two episodes, I think Peter is figuring out how his power works.

11/4/2006 11:23:31 PM

Peter said to Mohinder two episodes ago that he can only do stuff when he's around other people who can do stuff. Like fly and see the future. Mohinder said omg you sound like a faker. Peter knows exactly what is going on, and he has for a while.

11/5/2006 1:11:43 AM

yet another reason mohinder's character has been totally pointless and gay so far

11/5/2006 11:21:04 AM

He really needs to do something soon, because he's just one of those douche bag charaters you really don't care what happens with his story

He would have had to have taken a very specialized IQ test to determine if it was over 150, and by how much.

But, he can speak Japanese and English very fluently, it seems.

11/6/2006 10:23:10 AM

This show makes Monday bearable. Looking forward to tonights installment.

11/6/2006 10:39:36 AM

about the S symbol i think, it is something much greater than just something on their bodies relating to why they have the powers. Idk how many other people have realized this, but i did since i watched all the episodes at the same time, but that S symbol is in like every scene it seems like. In the episode where the guy found out he could hear peoples thoughts, in the pool, the noodles and something else combined to make the symbol in the pool. In multiple random paintings in the painters house is of that symbol. On the cheerleaders textbook there is the symbol. When the indian guy (sorry about names) gets the harddrive from his dad, the symbol is running across the screen along with all the random letters. about another 50 incidents with it, any one else see it?

11/6/2006 10:54:18 AM
