Awww, poor woobie.

Hiro and Charlie -- Aw, damn it, I want Charlie to stay and be alive and make out with Hiro. I just want to sweep Hiro up into a great big hug and tell him it'll all be okay even though you just know it won't. The thing that strikes me about the whole thing is that Charlie has a superbrain AND a blood clot in there. That just seems like something that's too close for coincidence. On the other hand, does it mean anything bad for Sylar if he takes Charlie's broken superbrain for himself?
Nathan, Heidi and Peter -- I like Heidi a lot even though I'll admit she's got crappy taste in men, considering what an ass Nathan can be. (Yes, I love him, but with complete and total understanding that he is a ginormous asshole.) And, awww, that hug and kiss on the head that Nathan gave Peter before everything went to hell. See, he can be a real big brother sometimes.
Matt and Janice -- Aw, man, how many problems can you dump on one guy's head in six months? He just gets screwed by life every time he turns around.
Sylar -- Sheesh, that guy is creepy, although I kept thinking that he looked like a low-rent Jason Schwartzmann because I am a bad, bad person. I think it was the eyebrows maybe. The whole stealing-brains-to-steal-powers thing is scary enough, but it's that missing step from "killing your ass and unscrewing your skull" to "look at what I can do now!" that's the worst part. I do think it's like the anti-Peter in that he draws the energy from the brain and keeps it (unlike Peter, at least so far) which is why he couldn't display that ability to Chandra at the drop of a hat, but the fact that he keeps popping open people's skulls to do it is freaking scary. I really felt sorry for Brian Davis, too. Poor guy, not wanting his powers and getting killed for them. And the worst part is that I have the sinking suspicion from things the writers have said about characters dying or losing their powers that given time Peter may have been able to zap away Brian's powers for good and he could have just gone off and become a tax auditor or a file clerk or a circus acrobat or whatever else floated his boat.
Niki and company -- Someone over on the TWoP boards threw out the theory that Niki's channeling the dead and I'm starting to believe it. I mean, Jessica acts awfully mature for someone who died when she was eleven.
Mr. Bennet and company -- Am I the only one who finds it strange that Mr. Bennet works for a secret organization with what seems like unlimited funds and he seems to spend so very much of that time covering up for Claire? Something about that situation does not sit right with me at ALL. I mean, I know he's supposed to help Heroes and she is one, but that seems like an overextension of "conflict of interest."
My pets are acting insane. Emmett's spazzing out and Otis has been looking for me to pet him (and I have a LOT) for the past ... oh, FOUR HOURS. Uh, I think that's how my cat tells time -- by getting someone to yell at him, "Would you knock it off? You've been doing that for four hours!"
Nathan, Heidi and Peter -- I like Heidi a lot even though I'll admit she's got crappy taste in men, considering what an ass Nathan can be. (Yes, I love him, but with complete and total understanding that he is a ginormous asshole.) And, awww, that hug and kiss on the head that Nathan gave Peter before everything went to hell.

Date: 2006-11-29 12:27 am (UTC)One of the previous victims was frozen - He probably activated his ice powers to defend himself and then Sylar scalped him.
Sylar didn't notice Hiro because he wasn't actively using his powers. Charlie, OTOH, was using her super-memory all-day long while Sylar watched.
Later, when he was fleeing and encountered Eden, he waited for her to make the first move with her power... unfortunately for him, he didn't get to do anything after that.
