Last week: Everybody caught up? Good. Moving on… This week: Back to the Present, in which Peter and Adam are making the dreamiest couple ever, Maya and Alejandro may be about to be down a brain or two betwixt them, Niki found a new and exciting way to contract a virus and the Bennets are set to flee but perhaps without Claire, who’s listened to “I Have a Love” from _West Side Story_ (hey, **West** Side Story? I wasn’t even going for that!) once too often. ---

Wow, they found a way to make West useful and almost even likeable. Claire DID have an early meeting with a super (from last week’s thread). And we found out who killed Hiro’s dad. (I’m not going to spoiler stuff.). Commercials over. Gotta go… ---

Holy shit! I’m \*liking \*West. I guess the writers realized they were almost out of time for this chapter and cracked the whip. This is a very tight episode. And man, Parkman went bad fast. I buy it though. That’s a hell of a seductive power. Mohinder’s power is that he’s a preternaturally bad judge of character. ---

I had some ghosting tonight. I missed the amazing subtitles that convinced Hiro not to save his father. I also missed whatever convinced Mohinder to shoot Noah. Is it me, or did that come out of nowhere? ---

I think we need a knock-down drag out catfight being Elle and Claire next week, one that involves lots of clothes being ripped off and such. You know, to help move the plot along. ---

[QUOTE=Rucksinator] Holy. F\*\*king. Sh\*t. I don’t guess there’s a chance of a redo on that, is there? [/QUOTE] I only have one problem with this new development: Now ANYTHING can be a do-over. Just a minor nitpick for an otherwise amazing episode. ---
