Kristen Bell is electric. Literally.
October 23rd 2007 03:08
The girl most people know as “Veronica Mars”, Kristen Bell, showed up on Heroes this week. She’s searching for Peter. Peter’s taken a liking to the new Irish girl, so her brother decides he’s going to help him by warning him about the American girl looking for him. He also says he’s not going to be scared off by one little blonde girl.
Matt teams up with Nathan in search of his dad in apartment 9. They break in, find Matt’s dad and a similar death card picture on the table. He tells them “They” are going to kill him too. Matt tries to read his father’s mind, and *gasp* I guess similar traits can be passed down generations. Except that now I’m once again slightly disturbed by Claire’s new boyfriend…
Anyway, Monica, Micah’s cousin who took down that man attempting to rob the restaurant the last time we saw her, tells the police that she doesn’t want to be the one to ID him. It’s her chance to be a hero, but she’s trying to protect her family. When she goes home and finds Micah playing the piano, she sits down next to him, and suddenly she can play too. Micah lets her in on his secret, then tells her his theory. He thinks Monica is a “copycat”. Pretty cool hero name if you ask me. Micah decides they should go out and test her new power. The first test? Doubledutch jumproping. Next? Bruce Lee movies.
Getting back with Matt and Nathan, Matt’s dad traps Matt in a cell-like room, and when Nathan busts through the door, he winds up on The Roof. And the city is burning. He knows it’s impossible because, “We saved this city…” Matt’s dad exits apartment 9, leaving his son and Nathan trapped inside in separate worlds.
Back in 1671, Hiro continues to help his hero become the legend he’s supposed to be. In present day, Ando takes some of the damaged scrolls Hiro wrote to him to an expert so they can be fixed and read. They work on it enough to read that Hiro was getting ready with the “White Beard” battle, but first they have to attack an army. Three against…well, an army.
Mohinder gets really worried about Molly and takes her to work because he doesn’t know what else to do. Niki shows up and practically kills both he and his new boss. Thankfully he’d just been given his new taser gun, and Mohinder takes her down, albeit he’s very confused as to what’s really going on in the facility. Niki wakes up in a hospital bed and apologizes for attacking them. Mohinder tells her she needs to get out, that she’s a prisoner, but she says she came there voluntarily.
Peter finally decides to open The Box, even though he’s decided where he is now is where he wants to be, no matter what. Inside The Box is a picture of him and Nathan, a few dollars, and plane tickets, but it doesn’t tell him much other than how he got there and that he’s from New York. Coincidentally, his new girlfriend likes to paint, and that triggers his power-painting.
Flash to Nathan on the roof, who thinks he sees Peter, but it’s really his radiated self instead. At the same time, Matt finds a crying baby in his weird cell, his ex-wife shows up angrily talking about him leaving, and Matt starts to fight the guard. Then comes a pretty good intercut fight scene between the Nathan’s and Matt and the guard. The two, who both think they’re fighting someone else, eventually snap out of it to realize they’re still in the apartment and they’ve been fighting each other. So Matt’s dad can make people see what he wants them to? Like that girl who was with Sylar? As Matt says, “Now we know why Molly calls him the nightmare man.”
They find a marked picture of Bob. “It looks like he’s next.”
Mohinder goes to talk to Monica, and the new Kristen Bell character talks on a phone in a car in the rain, telling the person on the other end of the line, “Daddy”, that she had to kill Peter’s girlfriend’s brother. Peter snaps out of his painting vision and finds out he’d painted something French. Two shadows standing on a street by a…church?
Looks like he’s off to Montreal after all…
