I was completely blown away by the fact that HRG spoke Japanese and that Hiro's father gave Claire to him to raise until (unless) she demonstrated powers. eek

I wonder where he is in the hierarchy of Primatech Paper and how it is related to the Japanese company. Does this mean that the genetic mutations were first noticed in Japan (because of the nuclear bombing of Nagasaki & Hiroshima) idea

Also, who is the man Eric Roberts is playing and what are his intentions now towards Parkman and Ted? This was such an awesome episode but I am left with so many more questions Exclamation

By the way, did anybody receive an email from Primatech on Tuesday morning?

Just watched the episode. Been working weird hours and fighting flu.

This is not an episode for the weak and sleep deprived.

I was in tears at the end.

Since episode 1, I really wanted to hate HRG, but he went down like a hero.

I really admired the fact that HRG wanted the Hatian to wipe his mind. I mean, he knows it can screw with your brain (like his wife's case) and he did it anyway.

Very good episode! I really liked how they stuck with ONE story for the entire time. It was beginning to piss me off how they would show you something really cool, like Peter flying off, and then cut to someone else's story. They need to start structuring episodes like this more often.
It would be cool of they structured the episodes like this:
[epiA] A bit of everyone's story
[epiB]50% of one story, 50% of another
[epiC] Same as B
{epiD] Just one story for the whole time

That way, each month contains a more engaging Heroes package, instead of 30 seconds of everything.

So, Invisi-Man sustains several shots and doesn't die? Damn HRG, always doing what he's told.
I think we can safely assume that HRG doesn't have any powers, except the one of looking like a horrible man - but only being a semi-horrible family man.

Where is Claire going? Obviously the Haitian is going with her, but where is this crack team of healer+mindwiper heading to? Is part of their mission to break Matt out by some loophole left by HRG?

So what is up with Matt being stuck on that table? Did HRG turn on him? Or is this more of his double agent game?

Mr Thomson(?) is really an idiot, it seems. This bothers me somewhat, most other characters are a bit deeper than him... but perhaps he will be fleshed out in the future. He most definitely will if HRG continues to play a role.

Shooting Sprague = nuclear holocaust in 10-15 min. Why? Because he is in pain and gets pissed? Killing him softly doesn't lead to a meltdown?

Is the family going to be mindwiped, now that Thompson knows that they know stuff? One more might end up crashing Claire's mom...

Maybe, MAYBE, Thompson's comments to HRG over Matt on the table are an indicator that Matt and HRG will be partners now.... but where does that leave the Haitian?

To answer some of One's questions:

I posted this elsewhere and now that he synopsis is up I thought Id ask again... Did anyone else get the impression that the first time HRG shot Claude it seemed like an accident? Like the gun went off on accident and then HRG was like "well might as well finish the job."

I didnt even think he fired the gun until the second shot, it was rather strange, I need to watch it again

i've watched that scene a bajillion times...yes, the first shot is an accident, or a hiro somewhere using THEIR power...the point is, until that first shot, im pretty sure HRG wasnt sure what he was going to do. After that first shot....he was like "fruck it, i already shot him once"
