Well, no spoilers yet. The line on Wikipedia for this episode reads:
"Suresh finds an undiscovered Issac Mendez painting that shows someone's death; Maya frees Alejandro from a Mexican jail; in the past Hiro discovers something new about Kensei; and Niki and Micah leave Las Vegas to get away from their past."
S'pose I should keep my trap shut for another half hour, but that description just about says everything. I'm really just not sure whether or not the painting is really going to do anything... I mean, he painted the city being destroyed by the blast, too, but that didn't happen, and, since that changed, what's to say that the painting here couldn't be proven wrong?
[Mild spoiler Warning]
Also, does anyone else think it was a mistake to bring Sylar back? I mean, honestly... It just bugs the hell out of me when nothing really changes at all. The ending of Season 1 was so dramatic but now... everything's just back to square one. Peter in Ireland, Nathan still in the city, Sylar in jabumblefuck out there, hell, even Parkman survived. It just seems like the entire season became a waste when nothing changed.
And... would it be possible to just start a spoilers thread for the series or something? Seems a waste to make a thread for each episode...

I agree, bringng Sylar back is dumb. And at least they killed off a few people. Linderman, Issac, and now D.L. I figured at least one hero from Kirby Plaza would bite the bullet over the season finale.
And as for the thread thing, I tried reviving the Heroes overall thread but people keep making new threads for each episode, so I figured 'when in Rome..' . Starting next week though, i'll keep my stuff in the overall thread.
Bringing Sylar back was a great idea I think. He's even more psychotic than before now! And Peter is one badass Irish Gangster. Mr. Hornrimmed Glasses is gonna get pwned by is daughter and Superboy. And Kensei....yeah Hiro is the real Kensei and Kensei is the one killing people off in the present. Show rocks.
Man, Glasgow Celtic always gets a mention in American TV shows. Glasgow Rangers NEVER does.
Part from that it was a really good episode. Bringing Sylar back was a great idea. He, for me, is one of the best actors in that show. And it's going to be interesting to see how he gets his powers back.
I knew Peter wouldn't open the box, i knew it! *CENSORED* you Peter!
I don't want to see HRG die. I think he's a great character.
And Sylar... yes I think it was dumb to bring him back, but apparently he has to start over from the beginning on his powers, right? Since he took that girls and couldnt do anything still? *shrugs*
And the girl with the Black crying eyes.... Is it me, or is that just a *CENSORED* ability to have? >.>
You'd think Parkman was more likely to die than D.L. was. Since Parkman took four bullets and D.L. took one /shrug.
Sylar coming back is good and bad. While I agree, nothing in a sense has changed, Sylar and Peter are now at opposite ends of the world...but in similar positions. Both have lost something. Peter, losing his memory(and with it, his ableness to use abilities when he chooses) and Sylar losing his abilities in general. So, I expect a big part of this season will be both of their journeys in trying to recover that which they lost from the first season.
I have to wonder if the area Sylar is in is perhaps another trick by Candice or whatever her name is and she isn't actually dead. Could be wrong I suppose.
Anyway, Pascal, I'm all for Celtic being in shows/movies. They're always getting beaten (Refer to The day after tommorow, where Celtic are being beaten 3-0 by Manchester United and the guy on the radio was talking about Celtics Febuary Extra time 1-0 defeat to AC Milan in the San Siro)
I reckon Sylar's still in an illusion too, which would be funny 'cos that very same trick was pulled in the most recent episode of Stargate Atlantis.
Sylar's a cool character, so I'm kinda glad he's back. The reason it's dumb, though, is the same reason a load of other character's are back, so it's not just him that's the problem.
My real problem this episode was the two cliched and obvious love stories. I mean, come on.
