Heroes 1x02: Don't Look Back

Eeek!



OMG there is a serial killer that eats their brains! This is the reason I avoid spoilers - I'd heard the name 'Sylar' around the place and knew that he was a bad guy, but Isaac's messy death was still a big surprise.

... well, you know, I assume he eats the brains. I think this is actually less disturbing than the idea that he's keeping them in jars somewhere. Sylar must have some swoober powers to have frozen that guy and nailed that woman to the wall like that.

This was certainly a bad day for our heroes getting arrested. It's great to see Greg Grunberg again, and I had instant empathy with poor Matt. Telepathy would be a really useful ability for a wannabe detective if he could just explain to everyone that he had it.

Also loved that Hiro's reaction to the police asking him how he got to New York was the unvarnished truth *g*. Maybe when he goes back - and obviously he'll have to, because otherwise Isaac will be dead and New York exploded - he should take Ando with him for English speaking ability and common sense.

Meanwhile, the Petrelli family gets more complicated by the episode and oh noes, Claire's dad is evil!

Sylar: is an effective menace.

Petrellis: you ain't seen nothing yet. (Why, of course most of my Heroes fanfic stars them.)

Claire's dad: what [livejournal.com profile] honorh said. (BTW, since at that point we only know him as Mr. Bennet, fandom coined the useful acronym HRG, for Horned Rimmed Glasses.)

Hiro and Ando: I'm still not saying anything.
