Fight or Flight

Here it is Monday night after Heroes again.

 Tonight’s show was a real sit on the edge of your seater. First of all, Peter, even though he looked through the box with all his information, still has not a clue who he is. He did, however, realize his painting abilities, when he painted a mysterious picture of himself and Caitlin in Montreal, at least that’s what they think it was about. Anyway, I was a little disappointed that they used Elle to kill off Caitlin’s brother, he was one of my favorite new characters. And I assume, that Peter got his ability to generate electricity from Elle, since she used that power to kill Ricky.

As for Hiro, I was sorely disappointed that we didn’t get to see much of him. I really hope they invest a little more time in his story line next week. I’m starting to miss that little guy.

As far as Molly, Matt, and Suresh go, Molly is now with the company, you kind of had to see that one coming, and Matt has gone off to find his father, which he and Nathan did, only to find that Parkman senior has a power of his own, which is a great one, but not so much for Parkman and Petrelli. They are left inside a small room to confront their worst fears, and end up unknowingly beating each other half to death. Anyway, Matt finally pulls them both out of it, but by then Parkman senior is long gone, and Molly is still trapped inside her own nightmare.

Suresh, in the meantime, has a confrontation with Nikki/Jessica. While trying to help her escape from the company, she sends him away telling him that she is seeking help for her split personality. So, he heads of to gather the person the company wants brought in, who just happens to be Monica. After she realizes, with Micah’s help, that she is “special” they go out and see just what she can learn. When they return home, a knock at the door produces Suresh, who tells her that he is there to help her understand her new changes.

Probably the best moment of the night was when Matt learned to use mind communication, and realized that he could not only hear others minds, but speak to them as well.

As for the rest of the episode, again, I am disappointed in the lack of Hiro, and really hope that they plan to bring him some action next week.
