Heroes: This Show Makes No Sense

Nathan and Tracy hooked up. Nathan continued his religious mumbo-jumbo, which evidently does not extend to premarital sex. They find out from Angela that Dr. Zimmerman worked for the Company and created people with abilities - including Niki, Jessica, Tracy - and Nathan. He's pissed.

Linderman, who I thought was a ghost or something, recruits Daphne to help him. But it ends up no one else can see him but her. I'm confused about what he is. He wants her to recruit Knox, and later Matt. Turns out it was Matt's dad Maury creating the Linderman visions all along to manipulate Nathan and Daphne and "build an army". He's working for Arthur Petrelli, who is not dead, but rather is in a coma, communicating with Maury through telepathy.

Hiro and Ando freed Adam so he could help them find the formula - which I guess is the formula used to create specials. He takes them to a "specials for hire" bar. Knox ends up capturing Adam. Then Knox and Daphne recruit Hiro to join them - by making him kill Ando. He drives a sword through Ando's heart. WHAT!? Did Hiro really kill Ando? WHAT!? THIS SHOW MAKES NO SENSE!!

Mohinder's in the woods hunting people. He kills a dude and brings him to his lab, and he has the neighbor dude from last week, barely alive, spun up in some kind of web against the wall. And his back is all scaly again. WHAT IS HE!? Maya shows up and starts in with the black tears, and he traps her into one of those web things. So now Mohinder's a killer, cuz really that black dude looked dead. THIS SHOW MAKES NO SENSE!!

Claire's hunting bad guys - starting with Bubs from The Wire. He creates black holes - cool! She is, of course, outmatched. That's what happens when you're an 18-year-old girl out on your own hunting villains. But Bubs isn't really a villain, y'all - he accidentally sucked someone into a black hole and was imprisoned. So Claire decides she'll help him instead.

Peter's raging against Sylar and trying to kill his own mother, but Sylar saves her. Angela puts Peter in a coma as punishment.

Bennet and Sylar team up again to find Bubs. And they can't agree on a radio station in the car. Sylar's acting like a bratty teenager, and sure was awfully accepting of his New Mommy. THIS SHOW MAKES NO SENSE!!

They show up at Bubs' house and Claire's shocked to see her dad and Sylar working together. In the ensuing black hole drama, Sylar saves Claire's life. Bennet asks Bubs to suck Sylar into a black hole, but Bubs refuses to kill anyone, instead sucking himself into a black hole.

You know what this show wasn't missing? Matt in Africa.

But really - this is just too confusing and there are too many people. THIS SHOW MAKES NO SENSE!!

I didn't even mind last season, I was one of the few people defending this show, but one more episode is all I'm giving this show....another one like this and I gotta cut my losses.....just like prison break and 24.

Some fanboy you are. You give up on shows way too easily.
