1) Is Hiro that stupid? Most people know these days that you don't touch crime scene stuff. You sure as hell don't pick up a GUN! What was he thinking?

2) The scene between Claire and her father was, uh, sappy.

3) When Saresh and that girl were crawling around on all fours, I knew they were going to be close enough to kiss. I felt this part was going to happen. A little too predictable IMO.

Other than that, I loved the new episode. And I loved reading the comments here on this message board.

I think Hiro was scared and picked up the gun because of that.

I think the cops on the other hand were pretty dumb. There's no way Hiro took Issac's brain with a semi automatic hand gun or without getting anny blood on himself. Loved him faininting that was good.

Clair had an equaly sappy scene with her mom last week just before she jams her hand into the garbage disposal.

Of course the almost kissing thing was going to happen. We need a love interest and they are the obvious choice. I am suspicious of her though. She could be a plant from the other side.(bad guys)

1. Fear and stress can do strange things to a person's intellect.

2. I think that scene was intentionally sappy, to give more power to the reveal that HRG has the tape.

3. That scene reminded me of Rent, LOL.

And had the story line gone he leaves the gun and the criminal is still present, who then picks up the gun and uses it against Hiro, we'd be wondering how could he be that stupid to leave the gun for the criminal he's yet to see...

He might have picked up the gun in self defense...if I walked into a room and found a freshly dead guy in front of me (lol @ my freshly dead oxymoron) I would be looking for something to use in my defense in case I ran into the guy as I was running the **** out of there.

Of course I wouldn't use the primary weapon for the murder but, meh. Maybe the killer hadn't left the gun. Maybe he was still in the building. :-\

And the 3rd scene DID remind me of Rent! When they're looking for Mimi's stash. She's way too cute to be trusted.

One thing I'm considering...if Sylar was the one who killed Isaac, then I'm assuming that the gun belonged to Isaac. Because, well, it doesn't seem like Sylar needs a gun at all...

I thought it was a good twist that he had the tape but yes, that scene was not good. I don't necessarily find it sappy. It's more creepy to me but then again, he's a villain.

Yeah, I'm not sure how well the girl can be trusted especially since now he's found what his father has been working on all this time and can now track down all those with powers.

For some reason, I'm just not convinced Sylar and the person who killed Isaac in Hiro's future are the same person. In the Sylar death, the crime scene was practically clean as a whistle, the victim frozen. Isaac had blood all over the place and there was a gun...

When a frozen body with no brain thaws, you don't think some blood is going to leak out throught he wound, and run into a puddle?

I don't think the gun was Sylar's either... the body sure as heck didn't look like a GUN/bullet went through him.

1) I suggest reading Hiro's blog. There's a funny explanation for it.

Where's Hiro's blog?

Hiro's Blog

There's a link on the official NBC site of Heroes. I think they also have characters on MySpace.

Why would Hiro have had fear or stress about the situation when he simply walked into the building excited to meet the artist? He wouldn't have. The fear should have came when he saw the gun and the blood..and that should have been his clue to leave...quickly. He hadn't yet found the corpse, so the self-defense defense is lame. If the killer might be there..that is even more incentive to get out and call the authorities.

Lady Heather...you and I are in complete agreement on Hiro being an idiot. Although, it doesn't matter because he went back in time so none of it actually happened..hopefully, he's learned something from that experience, but I doubt it.
