Heroes: Sylar Sets A New Target
The latest episode of “Heroes” I found much more enjoyable than last week’s, which I found a snooze fest. Still I was hoping for more with Angela’s story, which actually is in next week’s episode.
Matt set out to make the Hunter/Emile pay by taking away someone who meant everything to him. He used his powers to lead him to the woman the Hunter loved. He found out that the Hunter had lied to her about who he was and what he did. Matt took her to the Hunter and forced him to tell her the truth. She was disgusted by the Hunter. Matt wanted to make him pay more by killing her so he knew what it felt like, but he couldn’t. He then allowed the Hunter a clear shot at him, to end his life. This of course is when Hiro showed up, froze time and saved Matt. Upon learning of his son, Matt of course had a new reason to live.
Sylar decided he was going to totally destroy Noah Bennet’s life, and he’d use his new shape-shifting abilities to do so. Noah and his wife were having problems, she had filed for divorce. Noah meanwhile learned Sylar wasn’t dead as they wanted him to think, the dead man was a shape-shifter and Sylar stole his powers. Noah became suspicious of everyone, even thinking his wife was Sylar at one point. He had her pinned to the table and gun to her before finally believing she was his wife. Oh dear! Noah forced the Hunter to tell him where Sylar was. Noah tricked the Hunter into thinking he was Sylar shifted into his form, so he found out the Hunter was working with Sylar. The Hunter told him who Sylar was masquerading, and Noah went after him. When he confront “the agent” in front of everyone, Hunter betrayed him and claimed he was crazy. Noah shot the man he thought was Sylar, missing his brain and his hand was pushed, but the man didn’t get up. It looked like he killed the wrong man, and he ran off fleeing. Of course after everyone esle chased after him, Sylar got up! So the destruction of Noah has begun.
Finally Claire, Nathan, Angela and Peter all met at some ghost town of a place. She claimed this was where it began, and she told them to dig. They found bodies, several of them, and Angela knew who they were.
Like I said, I was most interested in Angela’s story, which played so little in this episode.
I’m still expecting Sylar to kill the Hunter at some point. I’m also worried he’s going to kill HRG’s wife too. The spoilers say . . . stop here if you don’t want to be spoiled . . . spoilers say Sylar kills an original cast member and the death is real. I think it will be Noah’s wife 🙁
