Heroes

this is a good realization!

 

I don't think he has to eat their brain, when he was first introduced his power was that he is able to figure things out, so my guess is he looks at their brain and is able to figure out their powers.

 

I don't think so. I think part of his deal is he doesn't want anyone else to know Claire has these powers because he's afraid she'll be added to HIS list. I think he's been erasing everyone's mind about it to protect her.

Doubtful, because Linderman ordered Nikki/Jessica to kill Nathan.

That's a very good possibility. I think it'd be cool if he could detect others like him. Sorta like Professor X in the Xmen can do with Cerebro.

very possible. There was also evidence he had a shunt in his head in the past. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it or not.

 

no he actually removes the brain for some reason.

 

remember, claire's powers "turned off" for a bit when she had that tree limb stuck in her brain.

 

Oh and FWIW... I get a hunch that Peter and Nathan's dad didn't commit suicide, but actually Linderman had him killed.

 

I hope Mohinder grows a brain soon. He is really starting to annoy me.

 

Started annoying me the first time i heard him talk.

 

Heroes' H.R.G. Gets Backstory

Jack Coleman, who stars as the mysterious Horn-Rimmed Glasses—aka Mr. Bennet—on the hit NBC series Heroes, told SCI FI Wire that the internal implosion of his family will continue in the next episode, "Company Man," airing Feb. 26. "I think the toll is starting to wear on H.R.G., and he can no longer just roll with it and gloss it over," Coleman said in a conference call with journalists last week.

Coleman said that "Company Man" focuses on his character's backstory and will answer some of the questions fans have been pondering about Mr. Bennet and how he came to adopt Claire, the invulnerable cheerleader played by Hayden Panettiere. "It reveals that he took the job and then came into custody of Claire," he said. "It will show you how that happened, and then the journey from how that changed everything and eventually brought everything to a crisis where he has to choose between them. The end of the episode is very emotional, and it stuck with me for a while. Of all the scenes that I have done—and there are many that have been fun and memorable—but the end of this one has really stuck with me."

In the last episode, "Unexpected," Claire finally erupted against her father after her mother fell ill as a result of being memory-wiped. That friction is pushing H.R.G., who has been secretly pursuing super-powered humans, to the brink, Coleman said. "I think that it's one of the things that brings the story to a crisis: the toll that it is taking on his family," he said.

Asked if he knows the upcoming fate of H.R.G.'s wife and son, Coleman said: "I really do not know the fate of Sandra, my wife, played by the wonderful Ashley Crow, and Lyle, played by Randall Bentley. I don't think they will completely disappear, though."

As to the future of Mr. Bennet as the season barrels towards a finale, Coleman only revealed that the anticipated showdown between his character and his archnemesis, Sylar (Zachary Quinto), will have to wait. "His antipathy toward Sylar is put on the back burner for a little while, because other things come up and supersede it," Coleman said. "Sylar is out on his own wreaking havoc away from the prying eyes of H.R.G. for a little while. H.R.G. has other things on his plate, which are demanding his full attention. And I can say I'm not exactly sure what H.R.G.'s approach to Sylar will be towards the end of the season and how it will all play out. But there's no question that that is a guy he would very much like to get his hands on, and it will keep him moving forward."

Coleman also said he's not certain of the producers' intentions with season two of Heroes. "I have absolutely no idea what is going to happen next season," he said. "I do think there are some relatively profound changes heading toward H.R.G., but I don't know that they are going to happen or what is going to happen into the next season. I think the mission will definitely change; the question is for how long and at what cost. It's certainly not going to be the same kind of bagging or tagging that we've seen H.R.G. do with Matt Parkman [Greg Grunberg] and some of the others. I think it will be a very different kind of mission." Heroes airs Mondays on NBC at 9 p.m. ET/PT. —Tara DiLullo Bennett

 

good show tonight

Eric Roberts is the "boss" (good choice) - only to find out that Hiro's dad (Sulu) is an even bigger boss. But neither one is Linderman and it looks like next week we'll find out who he is. Any leaks on who it might be?

The invisble guy and Bennet were partners and Bennett shot and tried to kill him so now we know why he hates Bennett so much.

It seems there were quite a few neighbors watching Claire come out of the house looking like a cinder but heal herself. With the Hatian on the run wonder how they made them forget.

Was the girl in the lab at the end the same one that got the nuclear geico guy to go after Bennett? Is she working with Bennett or has she infiltrated Primatech?

I wasn't sure why they staged his shooting, couldn't they zap his memory without it? the shooting was just to cover for the Haitian I guess.

lots of answers and lots of questions
