Heroes 4-02 “Ink” (09/28/09-spoilers)

Angelas insane sister was wind.

I can’t figure out if Sylar is “real” or entirely made up by Parkman.

But either way, why does Matt feel the need to talk back? And talk back out loud? His entire power is based on communicating silently, so he can’t just transmit his thoughts non-verbally to Sylar/“Sylar”?

I’ve never been a Parkman hater, but I think I might be turning into one now.

Just had a hunch…

Since they presumably want to keep Nathan on as a character, they can’t unswitch the bodies, but I’m sure they’d like to keep Sylar, too…

So, Mark is finally forced/convinced to “download” Sylar into a totally different body, which will also solve the problem of Zachary Quinto not wanting to resign a contract, now that he’s had some Hollywood success…

Is anyone else hoping that the invisible man is connected to the family? He was the first person to use the word “empath”, and he’s got the same vaguely foreign accent.

Of course, I hope that he comes back every season. I was hoping he was rebel. Speaking of which, has Micah been, uh, Micahed again?

That was some of the worst fake-cello playing I’ve ever seen. The Monkees looked more realistic playing their instruments on their TV show.

At least wiggle your fingers a little bit while every note is vibrato. Throw me a bone here.

Out loud? If he’s going full scale nuts, instead of having Sylar backwashed in his head, he’d be yapping to invisibles like any number of the mentally fragile. Also, he used to talk out loud to Usutu when he came by to make him paint future crap, even after he knew he was an illusion. Matt likes a good holler, it’s just his way:p

Deep, way deep down, the good cop wants to go bad cop. Why? I dunno, but he needs to externalize his motivation, find something outside of himself to blame the evil on. Gabriel invented Sylar as his psycho persona, and Matt-invents a different Sylar.

I’m not married to any particular interpretation just yet. I appreciate the ambiguity

Sylar keeps being Nathan with odd memory gaps, Quinto can come back and play Mr Hyde every so often, that’s always fun, and Matt dumps whoever’s crawling around in his head into some unsuspecting sucker? Now that would be harsh. I got it- give Sylar to Hiro. Bwah ha ha ha!

Or download him to Mr. Muggles. Oh yes, this must be. :smiley:
I still have $5 on Nathan being on ice somewhere waiting for a transfusion from Claire. I’d hate that because it’s so bad soap opera, but maybe.

If she’s not playing to make sound, but to make light, the nice sounds are just a happy consequence. Or she already knew how to play it.

Matt and Sylar seemed like the buddy cop movie from hell. And I mean that as a good thing.

Why does Matt have to talk out loud to him, etc? Because Matt just isn’t that bright. He’s never been portrayed as very smart, has he? He’s only ever been useful to anyone because of his brain powers, not his brainpower.

In a pinch Matt and his burritos could fill in for her.

According to the wiki article, this is true. Who knew? I guess that partly answers a long ago GQ question I asked about whether or not I could get rid of it (sound → color) if I go deaf…

Folks, are we supposed to find Claire’s new friend obnoxious? I don’t like her at all, and I assume that she’s the girl the spoiler is about, so…that’ll suck.

She’s way less annoying than the last roommate, but the nickname ‘girl-West’ did leap rapidly to mind.
