Heroes--Where's Hiro edition

This episode was one of Heroes trademark frustrating/annoying ones, featuring way too much Parkman and no Hiro at all. Alas. Alack.

Micah's grandma is Lt. Uhara! Yeah! She's so classy.

Micah steals pay per view, and we learn that his cousin has the coolest power ever. She can learn anything that she sees on tv. As a tv junkie, this appeals to me. I'd start with the food network, rent a few kung fu movies, then on to the history channel or discovery.

You could do ANYTHING.

Moutain Man Nate has kids. I totally forgot about them. He also shaved his beard. Thank heavens.

Ma Petrelli takes one for the team. I'm starting to see her as a kinder, gentler Magneto. We still have no idea what her power is though.

Molly the Moppet alternated between waking and sleeping, confusing everybody until, at one point, Mohinder put her to bed in jeans and a hoodie.

That just can't be comfortable. Seriously, have you ever tried sleeping in a hoodie?

Of course, thanks to Psychic Jerk she's now in a coma, and so will be unconscious for the foreseeable future.

I think that when they cast Molly, they brought in a bunch of little girls, had them lay down on mats, and then played "Graveyard" with the winner getting the part.

Boring Psychic Jerk Cop Guy (Parkman) discovers that his Dad is Sauron.

That Nerd Guy's name is Bob! It seems so appropriate.

Claire and Flyboy steal yet another iconic Superman image and kiss in the air. What's next Heroes? Jessicki in a patirotic leotard?

Mr. Evil Glasses can not die. I'm just ignoring that all stupid plot line. He Can't DIE!! Dang it!

The Wonder Twins replayed the exact same storyline they've played since the pilot.

It goes something like this:
Girl: We will get to America than everything will be great!
Boy: I'll protect you.
Girl: The murder charge is such a total bummer. It's not like a meant to hurt them, so it shouldn't count. Pass the pringles.
Boy: We're out.
Girl: *sniff sniff* *whimper* (Her eyes go all creepy black, people start dropping.)
Boy: Calm down! Soon we'll be in NY and you can have all the pringles you want!
(He holds her hands, they do that wierd black eye transfer, people start coming back to life.)

Rinse and repeat. I'm guessing we'll see this all the way up until the finale.


And in the night's most frustrating event:

Sylar walked through a tropical jungle for three days, before falling through a massive plot hole and landing in the middle of a road in the Mexican desert.

I'm so sick of Sylar. They should have killed him off last season. Let's ignore his storyline too and skip straight to the previews.

Next week: VERONICA MARS!!
