Played or Be Played. That is the lesson of today.
Forgive me. I missed the first 15 minutes but managed to catch a fuzzy version online.
So here we go….
Win! Mohinder does the best thing he’s ever done in his life. He saves Maya and carted her back to South America! As in permanently off our screens! Sorry boys. Nathan and Tracy are waiting in Mohinder’s lab. Mohinder’s spidey subjects are getting carted out and HRG and Meredith show to clean up the mess. Meredith snarks to Nathan, “Guess you still have a thing for blondes.” while Tracy deadpans, “Oh. We’re not together.” Heehee. For once, I love Ali Larter’s character. She’s smart, snarky, and she has great hair!
Elle is short circuiting and it’s really not a good look. I know what I’m talking about. My vibrator goes off randomly too and quite at the most inconvenient times. I can only imagine. Jesus. How did she get past airport security and why does everyone on the show have disposable income?! You know cuz last minute flights are SO affordable these days.
The Tortoise and the Hare. Daphne is ordered to kill Matt but Matt’s daddy says “oh hell no” but to no avail. Arthur says, “if you’re not with me then you must be against me.” and totally snaps his neck. LIKE A G. Meanwhile, Daphne goes to shoot Parkman anyway but can’t follow through with it. Knox knows that she can’t and busts in to finish the job killing both Daphne and Matt. But ohhhhh snaps! Matt is playing him! He mastered how to create illusions (go matt!) and thus creating a fake Matt and Daphne for Knox to kill. BUT ohhhhh snaps again! Turns out that Daphne is a two faced devil! She actually set this all up to gain Parkman’s trust. Cuz she knows he’s a sucker for love. But how does she think she’ll manage Parkman from reading her thoughts? Maybe she’s telling him the truth with her thoughts? And they’re playing Arthur? Risky business I tell ya.
Ahhhh. The house of Petrelli’s. Twisted family if I ever seen one. Daddy Petrelli enlisted Mohinder’s help to perfect the formula and the test subject is Peter. Speaking of which, he’s growing these little mini fringe bangs that are pissing me of. Anyway, Peter can’t save himself [with powers or without] and Sylar steps in to save the day. Mohinder starts kicking Sylar’s ass while Peter runs away but Daddy P stops him.
Playing on Sylar’s need to fit in and be a family, he tells him that Mommy is playing him and that she tried to murder him as a child seeing the monster that he becomes. Peter comes back [to SAVE Sylar. Hehe. Oh Peter] and tries to convince Sylar to go with him. Sylar says FUCK THAT brother. You tried to put me in a coma last episode. You didn’t want to help me. And now you want me to go with you cuz YOU finally see clear? And then he TKs him out the window much to Daddy P’s approval.
Unable to regenerate, Peter is goner! Or so it seems. In an episode filled with twists and turns, this one is good. Sylar slowed Peter’s fall with his TK power in order to save his life. I knew it! Sylar is a momma’s boy. Always have been. Always will be.
Claire and Elle fortunately came to Pinehearst just in time nad Claire leads Peter to safety while Elle can’t stand spasming every two minutes and runs to Pinehearst for a cure. Eek. EW.com says another blonde character is doomed to die. Could it be Elle?
Next Heroes. In 2 weeks. Are you ready?
Spoilers for you impatient ones.
