Heroes: The Line

It’s the Heroes moment you’ve all been waiting for … The Juander Twins (not my joke) & Sylar finally cross the border into the United States! Although it’s really not all that exciting. Maya cries the border guards to death, Alejandro gets mad, and Sylar says some creepy shit that Alejandro doesn’t understand. Now begins their 5-year mission to reach New York. Wish them luck!

Heroes: Fight or Flight

Sorry folks — no Maya & Alejandro in this week’s episode of Heroes.

Claire and West go on their first date!

Probably for the best. He’s liable to remember his old haircut. Or doing that Rocky movie.

Heroes: Lizards

Another awesome episode of Heroes this week. I’m really enjoying the pacing so far, and now that most of the main characters are already established, I like the way it jumps around from one storyline to another. Anyway, let’s get into it …

Hiro pretends to be Takezo Kensei to save the swordsmith’s daughter by using his freeze frame power, then resigns himself to taking on a Cyrano role with the white TK, who is suddenly all excited about the prospect of being a hero … if it means he’ll get the girl and the glory. His excitement doesn’t last long, however, before he’s the victim of a walk-by arrowing, which he survives because (wait for it) he has healing powers, like Claire. Which now makes the second repeated power we’ve seen this season.
