Heroes: Holy Crap This Show is Hella Good

The only disappointing thing about this show is that there are only 4 episodes left.

Bennet and Matt communicated through the wall by Matt reading Bennet's mind. Awesome! He had Matt get Ted to emit an EMP and break them out. Awesome!! Ted's radioactive power makes me giddy. The Three Musketeers teamed up for a hot, middle-aged road trip.

We learned Linderman's money power - healing. Not self-healing, like Claire, but healing other living things. What power does Mama Petrelli have? Linderman told Nathan how all the old people with powers banded together and tried to make a difference. Then some went rogue and used their powers for evil. Linderman thinks the explosion in New York will be a catalyst for good. Nathan is destined to give the people hope and lead them. In fact, he's supposed to be President.

Sylar and Peter had a Lil' Showdown. Peter went invisible, so Sylar threw shards of glass all over, with one sticking in the back of Peter's head. He dies, and Mike immediately calls that he won't really be dead - like Claire, all you have to do is remove the cause of death and he'll be good as new. Whew. Because when Nathan cried over Peter's dead body, I cried with him, thinking we would never see them French. Luckily, Claire found the piece of glass, pulled it out, and Peter came back to life. Claire is told to go to Paris for a week with Mama Petrelli, to stay out of the news before the election.

Sylar went after Isaac, who knew he is destined to be killed. Isaac realized he doesn't have anything to live for, told Sylar he will be defeated, and then Sylar cut his brain out. Isaac said he knew he was meant to die, but said that he was able to do something heroic first - "tell them how to kill" Sylar. So I'm guessing he painted this and sent it to someone. Awesome! RIP Isaac. Sylar got Isaac's ability to paint the future, only with less talent so the painting is quite ugly and macabre.

Five years in the future, Hiro sees the destruction in New York. He goes to find Isaac, but finds instead a timeline of events - made by Future Hiro. Hiro and Future Hiro come face to face.

Next week: we're 5 years in the future. Peter looks all Matrix and has the scar on his face. Nathan is President. It's just TOO DAMN AWESOME-LOOKING!!!!!!!
