Heroes

When we last left Hiro, he had appeared in Peter's apartment. Peter took him to the hospital and they discuss Hiro's brain tumor. Peter teleports over to Bennet's house and asks to borrow a Healer. Claire offers her healing blood, but that won't work -- because a tumor is living tissue or something. OK, fine, then they should just cut out the tumor and then have Claire heal him. That would work, no?

No, that would be too easy. Instead, Bennet and Peter go after a kid Bennet once bagged and tagged. The kid's supposed to be a healer, but everything in his yard is dead, along with his pets and parents. It seems his power has gone a bit wonky and on occasion does the polar opposite of healing. The kid's freaking out and shoots Peter, but of course there's not much drama there, as the kid also heals him. I have to say, I did like Peter's reaction to being brought back to life. Part orgasm, part euphoric laughter - it seemed authentic to me.

We also got T-Bag and Sylar, together at last. T-Bag wants Sylar to remember his true, evil self, and so he has a Dreadlocked Dude take him to the House of Mirrors. You know, cuz it looks cool. Sylar is tortured by the memories of his various murders. Luckily, T-Bag's there with the "It's OK we're all family here and we accept you for who you are" shtick.

T-Bag baptizes Sylar. Literally. I didn't realize the carnival was its own freaking religion. First you get baptized then you get to bang the hot tattooed chick. Sign me up.

We were also "treated" to even more Deaf Girl color-sound power that makes no more sense than last week. Poor Emma was left at the hospital with Hiro, trying to make sense of his Japanese lips. Hiro teaches her how awesome powers are and yet... sorry, sweetie, yours isn't all that awesome. In the end, Hiro transports to 3 years ago to save Charlie the Memory Girl.

I have to say, I am intrigued by one thing from the preview for next week - Parkman's banging his wife out really good but it's really Sylar in his head? That sounds like fun times.
