This episode was supposed to enlighten us on why it was such a bad idea to start rounding up people with special abilities. This episode was supposed to tell us about Angela’s sister and her biggest mistake. This episode was to clear up some of the questions that has been lingering in our minds for three seasons. All this episode did was bore me and make me cringe at scenes that weren’t suppose to be cringe-worthy.  This episode served its purpose but it should have been done in a better way. This episode should be placed on the forgotten list. The best parts of this episode were during the flashbacks. Seeing the younger versions of our favorite heroes was interesting. We got to see what kind of power Charles had before his death in season one. It seems like being a telepathy is common in the Heroes universe. Linderman was played by an actor who couldn’t pull of a foreign accent if his life depended on it. I was too busy laughing at this guy to care that Linderman was back on screen. Couldn’t they have pick a better actor to play the younger version? I enjoyed the interaction between the younger Angela and her sister. They did a great job together especially the sister. We got to see Mohinder’s father as well. He was one of the scientists at work. He and Mohinder share the same temper because he smacked a child when she was trying to get away from him.  It seemed as though the purpose of the tests was to see what they can do not to hurt them. The guns were protection for  the soldiers. A hero over reacted and got everyone killed. I was picturing something completely different and i believe many others were as well. The writers dropped the ball when it came to suspense and telling the story. This could have been done way better.

Milo Ventimiglia as Peter Petrelli, Cristine Rose as Angela Petrelli

This episode evolved around the Petrelli family, Mohinder, and H.R.G. H.R.G. and Claire reached common ground, finally. Mohinder was coming to terms that his father wasn’t always a saint. Mohinder is becoming useless with every episode. It is a good thing that he is taking a personal journey. Hopefully he will return with a much better storyline. Angela sister was proven to still be alive and lived in the desert for 50 years. If that’s not crazy enough she looks nothing like Angela and has a different hair color. What were they thinking casting that girl as her sister?! She doesn’t even look like someone we want to remember. Hopefully she will stay gone forever but i doubt that. The Petrelli family with H.R.G decides to take down the organization that they built. They are going to make everything so they can go back to the way things were. This is more like wishful thinking because i can’t see how they will do this. Especially with Sylar walking around like Nathan! This episode was painful to watch. The acting was garbage and the Angela having a sister storyline went straight to the toilet. The young actors that played their parts were much better than the original actors. I thought most of the young ones did a fine job other than Linderman. This episode could have been made so much better if they included a more sinister plot. I can’t wait for this series to be over. It’s like they want it to get cancelled.
