Heroes Season 3

[Parshias]

Did anyone here ask or explain about why Sylar's hunger would make him kill Elle? He already "saw" how she worked. Okay, that wasn't meant to be dirty.

Who said it was the hunger? Sylar's just being a dick.

[Zimbabwe Justice]

I don't understand anything in this god damn show anymore. And while having Sylar back makes it hilarious I miss Gabriel.


And won't Arthur just come back from the dead just like every other person who gets covered in bullets?

[Eticket]

Good episode outside of the implausible dues ex machina and not explaining why Claire didn't want the catalyst.

She is probably as tired of the show focusing on her as we are.

Might not be showing in the episode but EVERYONE know's theres a sweet spot in the brain to get hit and not come back unless its fixed. EVERYONE

[Ohaigaiz]

I bet Arthur will come back. Anyone notice that Angela played along with the whole 'Gabrielle is my son' thing? I don't she was being controlled by Arthur? Unless he did what he did to her in that flashback when she poisons him? It doesn't show that, though...

I'd be surprised if he didn't, because he has healing power from Adam and Peter. Just as Sylar and Claire came back after the eclipse was over, Arthur should come back as soon as the Hatian leaves.

If he doesn't come back, that'll be the plot hole.

It also seems Nathan's Captian America is a little racist towards Haji's

Who's Haji?

[Dezso]

I highly doubt Arthur will come back. If you remember in the first season, claire landed on a tree stump and impaled her head or something (I could be wrong). However I believe that the main weakness of those who heal is that they cannot function without their brain having some kind of foreign violent substance.

Sylar looks at their brains to see how people's powers work. So with that, think of it this way: when you take a flashlight and point it at a wall = heal powers work. Place your hand in front of it (bullet, tree etc) and it stays in there = heal powers don't work.

As for the Haitian (it's already been covered), but think of a water hose. You can make a mist which covers a large area, but relatively weak. However, you can narrow it down and it'll be a strong force towards a certain spot.

Nathan using his powers while the Haitian was around: it seems they they just got their ability when Nathan tackled and the Haitian probably just activated his power as soon as he saw his brother tackled.

'Gabriel' doesn't want to kill people, he wants to control who his hunger. However, Gabriel only existed when he had family (Ie: Arthur/Angela, that woman who was his mom). However, when he lost his 'family', he became Sylar and no longer cared about controlling his hunger. It can almost be compared to a split personality, but not to the extent where one persona doesn't know about the other.

Hiro's mother: the catalyst probably takes a life toll on a person. So even if they can 'heal' wounds, they'd probably risk destroying the catalyst. So Claire would be the ideal person since she constantly regenerates making it not have the same side effect it did on Hiro's mother.

Arthur teleporting 16 years back: only thing I can think of is the timeline. Since 'present day' Hiro got the catalyst, nobody knew where it was save for 3 people, one of which died and the other 2 weren't compatible in the timeline. Whereas if he went after Hiro's mother, then it's almost bound to have reprecussions on the Arthur of 16 years ago as the only way for Arthur to have covered up everything would have been to kill Sulu (I'd assume mom would have screamed for help and he'd come help her). Which would have been a bigger plot hole.

Anyway, that's my take on things.

This says it's a military term for civilians in the Middle East.

[Ohaigaiz]

Feels like when Arthur died all powers he 'stole' will be returned. Notice the smoke looking shit when he steals powers, like a soul or something. I don't know why that would happen... It seems like the plot is just a gigantic flop. No one can time travel except Hiro that we know of, and Peter has absolutely no powers. All I can think is that the focus will be mostly on Sylar.

[BRP]

That was an odd way to kill her then and if I am right he was washing his hands and stuff?

Also, wasn't it shown he works like Peter?

Maybe he got a little too close and got blood on his hands.

And I guess his power can work like Peter's now, with empathy and all, but this is mass-murderer Sylar we're talking about, he's not going to go around holding people's hands so he can become "more special," he's going to decapitate them.

[Sunrider]

This says it's a military term for civilians in the Middle East.

Only in the same way spic, gook, jap, kike, slant, cracker, and nigger are terms for people or the respective ethnicities.

There are people in the military that use it, just not the remotely civil ones. It's not a specifically military term for description of peoples of Persian descent, it's just more ignorant, prejudiced slang, same as the above terms.

Also, wasn't it shown he works like Peter?

See, this is that part that's starting to irk me. Is his power empathic and passive, or is it physical and aggressive?

I assume the logic the writers are going with is that his power is empathically-based when he shows genuine compassion for others, and can simply absorb abilities passively (like Peter), but is dual-faceted. The aggresive aspect seems to be triggered by his emotional state, and his negative outlook at the end of episode 11 led to his resolution to focus on the aggressive aspect of his powers, which actively seeks understanding (with violent results), rather than simply "feeling things out."

Originally, it seemed that Peter and Sylar were two sides of the same coin: powers that naturally and passively gain a feel for others (primarily emotional), and powers that actively and aggressively deconstructs others (primarily cerebral). Now, I don't know what the hell is going on.

Err, that looked similar to the "light" Hiro's mother had, which she gave to Hiro, and Arthur took it. Maybe it was it that light? There is no indication that Arthur put all of it into that batch of the formula.

[Eticket]

I'd be surprised if he didn't, because he has healing power from Adam and Peter. Just as Sylar and Claire came back after the eclipse was over, Arthur should come back as soon as the Hatian leaves.

They shot him in the head, 'Future' Peter didn't come back after being shot in the head.

sylar stole the show in that episode.

Cake!

OTH, Lost and Heroes really are the same show so its understandable you got the 2 confused

Oh god no. Lost is much better and did not go from being awesome to being horrific. I'm glad to see that Heroes is picking up a bit these past few episodes (even with the plot holes and whatnot), but Lost is just so freaking good, and there's no plotholes to be found really

And Sylar was fantastic this episode, great return to form for him.

I just really wish they would stop time travelling. And if not, get a Doc Brown cameo, just so he can tell them how dangerous it is. Not that the morons will listen anyway.
