This episode opens up with Peter in the hospital getting the family treatment. Nathan blames Simone for what happened to is brother. Simone doesn’t believe it was her and points the blame at him. After some words, she takes him to see Issac. Issac tells Simone that he cleaned up his act and he is a better man that he use to be. Simone says that great but before they can start sucking faces, Nathan interrupts and wants information on the exploding man picture. Nathan fears that this is Peter and he doesn’t hide his concern with a fake smile this time around.

Claire’s world is now turned upside down after the Haitian let the cat out of the bag. She no longer trusts her father and for good reason. He has no clue that the Haitian has switched sides. Claire begins to start over again. She enlists her friend Zach to start videotaping her stunts. Just like the first time, Zach is in awe. She and the Haitian formed an odd friendship. He seems to care about her. I wonder why. Meanwhile Bennet is busy trying to see what makes Sylar tick. He is under strict orders not to kill him. It’s too bad because he really wants to. He finds the time to go bother Mohinder. He is still grieving over Eden. I don’t think Bennet even cared. After a tense conversation, Bennet lightens up and gives Monhinder some information. Bennet realizes he needs Mohinder’s help finding the others. I just hope Mohinder doesn’t fall in line with this guy. Even with all the new information about Bennet, he still remains a mystery. What side is he truly on? By episodes end, Bennet will have time to think about what is going to happen to Claire. Where was the Haitian when he needed him?


Zachary Quinto as Sylar

Hiro and Andy went on a quest to get a sword once held by Takezo Kensei. He was a great hero in the past and Hiro believes with this sword, he be just like him. He would also get his powers back! He was able to slow down time just enough to still the sword from the museum. It’s too bad it was a fake! No need to worry though he arrives at Issac’s apartment and he sees Flying Man! By this time, Simone becomes a believer and helps Hiro with his quest. Simone doesn’t become the only believer because Parkman’s wife now knows the truth.

After Parkman has a run-in with Bennet, he tells his wife everything. She doesn’t believe him at first but after a few tests he proves his point. It looks like he finally made his wife happy. He didn’t make his partner Audrey happy though. She got put on the sidelines due to the Bennet situation. I wonder how long she will be out or will they use this to drive a wedge between he and his wife by making her a love interest. I really hope this happens. Matt and Audrey makes a better fit.

Niki is in lock up and from the looks of things, she is running the place. The guards are afraid of her and for good reason. Jessica isn’t gone and she is having a good time using the guards as practice. She tells her lawyer to use the insanity plea to get her off. By the looks of things, it may work. DL and Micah miss Niki so much they pay her a visit. She tells him giving the money back that they stole was a good idea! Trying to see her son wasn’t though. She got beat and brought back to her cell. For some reason, I don’t think Linderman is going to get out of their lives easily. He seems to be a part of a lot people lives. I wonder how that came to be.

By episodes end, Peter wakes up and flees the hospital. He had another vision but with the same outcome. He sees a man stealing money from a woman’s purse and he tries to stop him. The man freaks out not because Peter is all up on him but because Peter can see him. It looks like Peter found the invisible man and was able to take his power. It is also the same man from both his visions and it looks like he plays a part in this saga as well. I wonder how big of a part he will play. This episode was very good and the interaction with the different characters are always a pleasure. I can’t wait to see what this new is all about.

Rating: 9.5
