USWhoFan Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I really enjoyed all the background information provided in this episode. Seems to be getting better and better. At least as good as the first season so far. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFMF Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 What a great episode. When I saw it was set in the past, I wasn't so sure how good it would be. Well I quickly changed my mind. It was exciting seeing what happened to Peter, and even how his brother healed. I found DL's death a bit odd. He just sort of "died", but it would have been better had he died at the end of season 1. Still, very good and getting better and better. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUEENSPOCK Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 where is Hiro? yeah the ep is ok i am glad everything was explained i too feel a bit cheated by DL's death it was interesting to see what happened the adam thing is interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurion Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Yeah, this episode focused on the Petrelli side of things. Do you think Peter was/is/will be responsible for sending Adam to distant past Japan, or he is some sort of Highlander-type, living through the ages etc.? The cheerleader must be related to him somehow. I didn't like what happened to DL either. Quite pointless. As TFMF said, if the writers were going to kill the guy anyway, season 1's finale would be preferable. The Maya storyline added nothing new. It just confirmed her brother is a moron. Despite that, it was an excellent episode. PS - Shockwoman is hot, but annoyiiing. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnot Borg Posted November 15, 2007 Author Share Posted November 15, 2007 The death of DL was so sudden and ordinary that it makes me wonder if it's a red herring of some kind. although, sadly, ordinary people do die suddenly and without any special reason. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyperion Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 The death of DL was so sudden and ordinary that it makes me wonder if it's a red herring of some kind. although, sadly, ordinary people do die suddenly and without any special reason. :( Perhaps from the equally possible red herring of a certain illusionist maker; it seemed strange to me that DL's 'killer' ended up at the bottom of the staircase ahead of them when he got left behind upstairs. It was okay (not excellent but very good), filled in a lot of gaps but felt a bit rushed for Peter's bit and slow for Maya's parts. Not even one scene with Hiro and still confusing about the crate (it was listed for iPods, wasn't it? So where were they or was that part of another yet-to-be explained plot?

maybrick Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 The reason for no Hiro in this episode is that he traveled 330 years into the past. He didn't even exist in the present timeline "four months ago"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't even exist in the present timeline "four months ago"! Ah, didn't think of that. Was thinking too linearly after the previous episode and his return with Ando telling him about his father.

GorunNova Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 The crate WAS for smuggling Adam and Peter (or at least Peter) away... so it probably would be better to say it was shipping something relatively lightweight like 'iPods' rather than be honest and say 'human(s)'. As for DL... well, it sort of underlines the fact that these people may have powers, but they're still human. DL was probably too surprised to phase, and it's too late after the damage is already done. It does explain how Niki got so trusting of the Company and Bob, though. Given what Adam said, it's pretty obvious he's four hundred years old. His power could possibly be quite a lot different from Claire's. Somehow I doubt a few drops of HER blood would totally regenerate some (relatively) average Joe. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinned_Tuna Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Loved the episode, but I dunno, I think that DL's death was kind of... too ordinary, like they were really stressing the point or something? Maybe I'm just looking at it too hard, but you never know! As for Claire's blood vs. Adam's blood, as we've seen powers can grow with age, so maybe Claire's power is exactly the same as Adam's, just not yet fully formed (And hence, not able to stop ageing/cure others, yet).
