The question was posed to me yesterday by a fan of the "Heroes" TV series who didn't watch this week.
"So how was Monday's episode?"
I looked at him and said "They went nuclear."
"Oh, is that all?"
This is the official SPOILER POINT and I will drop a picture here in between my brief observations for this week. And please use this link to this week's episode if you have not seen it.
And here we go.
So we get the present and future image of the mad scientist DR. MOHINDER SURESH when future and past PETER PETRELLI (pictured above) visits four years ahead.
Oh crap! Everyone has super powers - if you can afford it. Future Peter and CLAIRE have a brief and fatal meeting in the, uh, future. This sets up a super-powered battle royal (hopefully the first of many) between future Claire, KNOX, DAPHNE, SYLAR and the occasionally clueless present Peter.
It was the best moment of the show and in the presence of some fellow "Heroes" watchers at Geoffrey's Comics last night I heard several opinions echoing my own.
I know it's going to be hard for the producers to continue to afford this level of special effects and a cast this large, but it makes the show. Seeing the characters slip into their familiar roles is fine for an interlude but they must work it in with some significant confrontation.
Peter vs. Daphne, Knox vs. Sylar and Claire vs. dark hair and a leather outfit.
One other note tossed my way and a suggestion. We see the down side of future Suresh's experimentation and I'm not talking about him turning away MAYA. We couldn't see him clearly, but he looks like he may be severely mutated under that dirty hooded sweatshirt.
One of my friends, we'll call her RED. Red sees a picture of normal Suresh on my computer screen.
"Wow, who is that?"
"That's Dr. Suresh on the show Heroes," I say.
"Well Dr. Whatever-his-name is hot," she says.
A little advice for the "Heroes" producers - and I don't mind saying it - for your women fans you may want to think twice about messing up the face of your best looking male character on the show.
All in all a good week with a good ending. See you next time.
