If you want some more spoilers (especially for the girl just introduced to Nuke-Guy) the comics up to 'Issue 20' are up, use this link as a template.

Very cool episode. I think the writers have been listening to people's complaints - storylines are colliding more and more, and stuff is actually changing. Ando's gone, Simone's dead, huge changes inside the GD family, and a good old standoff involving psychic cop.

I'm a little offput by just HOW quickly Peter has progressed. What exactly does he need Claude for, anymore? He seems to be able to harness all of his powers completely at will, now. Maybe he has to be really angry and/or motivated? I wonder if he could use a power to, say, open a can of pop while watching TV.

I was thinking Team Unstable. Seriously, everyone on that team is prone to flip out at any moment. I love the fact that they're working together, though. Action is finally happening.

I think it was the loss of Claude that made Peter go nutso and figure out how to use his powers. Claude had already driven him to the edge, now he's over it and I'm not sure he's looking back. He doesn't realize he already has what he wants, he just knows his teacher is gone.

Also, I just remembered he was around Matt Parkman for a while, does he know he can read minds, or just think he has the power to make some sort of feedback loop in his head? Since he's been around Sylar, does he have ALL of his abilities and doesn't know how to trigger them, or just the abilities Sylar tried to use on him?

Speaking of Sylar, how long do you think the Sylar/Mohinder team up is going to last? Just until they get back to the apt and Sylar sees the list? Sylar's becoming more and more of an imposing figure with at least telekinesis, super hearing, freeze power, melting power, and whatever that flying/jumping/floating thing is.

Finally an episode with cool sh*te going on, and I'm not pissed off that I'm full of questions.

A very interstesting show. Lots happening, like why couldn't the Hiatian guy stop the powers of Peter and/or Claude. I know that we have seen that before, like with Peter's brother, so it does seem like there is a limit to when he can stop powers but I feel it needs to be discussed more in the show.

I too think that Peter is getting a touch too powerful, while I like Sylar's character. This is partly because Sylar actually has to kill the person to obtain the power, while Peter just sorta gets it through some sort of absorption process. Maybe they will flow out of him after a certain time, or something quirky like that.

It definately seems like the building with the pigeons is important, just from the way the Mr. Bennet reacted when he saw the painting.

I really can't wait to find out what happends with that standoff in the house, it did sorta look like there might have been one more person who had powers present judging by the brief glimses given.

Interesting, when I saw the house burning, I assumed Claire's mom came back and started kicking ass. But you're right, Ted could easily do that if he got emotional.

Actually, they don't really say that for sure. The working theory I have heard and agree with is that he gets close to Ted and can't control it.

And I quote:
Mohinder: Peter's specific DNA allows for a blend. Like colors in a mosaic, resequencing itself to mimic the abilities of those around him.
Nathan: Like a chameleon.
Mohinder: More like a sponge. It's precisely why I've been studying him.
Nathan: Could his condition become dangerous, to himself or to other people?
Mohinder: If he absorbs too much or comes into contact with an unstable ability, then most definitely yes.

Ted's ability isn't unstable. He controls his emotionally as you can see when he gets upset. The dreams that Peter has isn't of him getting upset and going off, so it would seem to me it would be an implication of absorbing too much.

Just a thought, but remember that in Peter's vision, Isaac is dragging Simone away, leading us to believe that she's not really dead yet. Also, Ando is pictured, so if you follow the same logic, he's going to come back, too.

I groaned over Stan Lee's cameo. I can't stand that guy.

I never really got into Battlestar, so... is the above a compliment or an insult?

Battlestar is a great series, but the last few episodes have left us a bit wanting in the plot development department.

What is "Who Wants to be a Superhero?" ? I don't get american tv, I just get some shows over the net. I assume it's some sort of reality-show...

I've been thinking it over and I think it's Sylar that will explode not Peter.

Peter can turn the powers off that he absorbs (unless you count Simone's dad's premonitions/dream power), Sylar it seems, so far, can't.

And Simone ain't dead-dead.
