Now let me take a trip down memory lane. Heroes 11/10/08
We start off in Africa where AfroIssac is feeding Hiro some crap that will enable him to see the future. This guy has some major tools yo. I mean, a future seeing walkman, future seeing mush, magically colorful berries that enable rock paintings? So baller. Either that or that caveman’s on acid.
But via Hiro, we zoom back to the good days when Peter was a nurse and had the best emo bang ever. This is 2 months prior to when we started Season 1. For all you Season 1-ers, this is a great tie in episode. I squealed everytime they ‘sequenced’ a scene that was the continuation [or ‘pre-continuation?!] of the pilot. Yes. At times it was corny but it really brought things together for me.
OK sorry. Fanwank over.
As we know Nathan was about to take Linderman and his papa down for countless cases of illegal doings. Papa tried to talk Nathan out of it but Nathan insists. Papa commends Nathan for his integrity decides that he must die. He orders that horrible accident that rendered Heidi handicapped and Mama Petrelli is on to him but being the good wife she accepts his lie that he had nothing to do with it.
Love triangle time. Linderman takes it upon himself to heal Mama’s brain and oh is it on. She’s clear now and the mission is clear. Daddy must die. Husband or son. It’s nature. The mother protects her cubs. By any means necessary.
Angela enlists the help of the Haitian and she poisons Papa. Before she can cremate him, Nathan fucking walks in and they have to hold a whole funeral. By this time, the doctor’s are in on it and are preserving Papa in a hidden hospital room. Oh Angela. You tried. You really did.
Back in the white trash part of the world, Flint and Meredith are robbing a liquor store. You know, because THAT’S not a stereotype. Flint is obviously pretty retarded and Meredith is the protector here. She gets caught by the Company and works …. You know what? This part of the episode was pretty slow so I don’t want to get into details.
- Meredith works for company
- Company catches Flint
- M lets Flint go and escapes on train
- Company intercepts
- Flint/M blow train up
- Train accident was the initial accident that Claire went through to ‘test’ her powers.
- Company lets M go and tells her Claire is alive
- M walks away from accident on bridge. Down below we see a young Claire.
I walked through fire and didn’t get burned.
TBC in next post. Sylar, Elle, and Daddy.
PS. Arthur kills AfroIssac and mid-killing Hiro
