Between shifts at a local fast food joint, Monica Dawson begins to exhibit some unexpected new abilities unbeknownst to her brother Damon, grandmother Nana, and cousin Michah. Angela Petrelli makes a shocking confession. With Molly's "boogyman" continuing to turn her dreams into nightmares, Matt asks her to put aside her fears and locate him on a map -- with terrible results. Suspecting Claire has a new boyfriend, H.R.G. fears for the future. As they get closer to the U.S., Maya and Alejandro make a grim discovery on the road.

Wow, this episode was amazing (despite the fact that there was no Peter wink.gif )

It seems like Nathan might actually clean up his life. He's certainly lost enough. I felt that he was putting the pics of Peter up as motivation of sorts, so it's a shame that that hallucination or whatever it was popped up. I liked the meeting between him and Matt. It was nice that Matt revealed personal information, to make up for the fact that he knew what was in Nathan's head.

Very interesting development with Matt's father, though not entirely surprising considering that seems to be the trend. I was so mad at Matt for making Molly find him. I know it was important to him and he didn't know what was going to happen, but it was a crappy thing to ask her. Hopefully, she will be OK.

Well, I thought the Mexican storyline was going to be over in the beginning of this episode, but it seems that it is going to continue. I wonder if Sylar will kill them soon, or if he will wait until he has his powers back.

And I was skeptical about them bringing on another hero, but I am a little bit intrigued with her power. It reminds me a little bit of Charlie's, except much more useful. I also like her connection with Micah, not just by family, but it seems that they have a strong emotional bond. Did anyone notice if Nana was in the picture of the elder heroes? If not, I wonder if the mother who died in the hurricane was in it.

Yep another incredible episode. Dang I love this show.

Anyway, yeah I hope Nathan does get his life back on track. Yeah maybe those pictures are motivation for him.

The fact that all these powers are like inherited is more interesting overall. And Matt's father possibly being the boogeyman is scary. But it makes sense in a way. Matt can get into people's heads. So his dad can too but on a mega level. Yeah but I was a bit mad at Matt for letting her do it too. Poor thing. I hope she will be okay.

Okay, I really really hope Sylar does not get his powers back. He's just so bad even without them. Then if he was to get the twins powers, especially just the girl's...I hate to think what he will do.

Yeah the cousin was pretty cool. I loved how she kicked that guy's butt out the window. Cool. I did not see Nana in the photo. I might rewatch it and see if I see her. But it might have been the mother who died.

Claire and West are cute but I did get a closer look at the painting and it definitely looks like Claire is KISSING West with her dad on the ground dead.

Next week looks good...Peter action. Woohoo!!

Alright!! another good eppisode! thumbsup.gif Has anyone else noticed that some of these people have the same abilities, so it makes me wonder if, ( for exsamples), that Peter's Mom is also the Cops Dad? Peter & the new girl at the resturant, they seem to have "simular" ablities too, well I think , once this new girl gets in more control of her powers, she will soon, to be able to "take" the ablities of others, just like he can. I also think Skyer is the same in a werid sence of the way too, so I can see the "ties in bond" to these charecters.



I liked this one, it slowly getting to know about the "past" with the picture, that's more important item in the show so far eh.

Also the new boyfriend & the Senator can fly, wonder if there's a son & Father match there too , or gosh how about that shot of the needle that they all have( in their neck), wonder if someone put some of each others DNA into a pile of people( either with by chose or not).



I love guessing even though some of it is really "out there" far in the outfields eh! lmao.gif But one last guess, how about ,how this all started, some college kids,( okay the adults in the picture), maybe they were all drawn together in a science class, & one of them, actually found the "gene" that can mutate & had some really "cool" side effects. so doing lab tests on themselves?? & some of them got really "greedy" in the progress?



Okay just spineyes.gif guessing here. wave.gif

Well they said that they would have multiple people with the same abilities, only because there are really only so many different kinds of powers that they can come up with. So I do not think that ones with the same powers are all necessarily connected by blood.

As for the new girl, Micah's cousin, I do not think her power is like Peter's. Vilandragirl I think was more right with it being like Charlie's. She has not shown any sign of absorbing Micah's powers so I do not think that is it. I think she just can see anything and she can do it or learn it. That was Charlie's ability.

Wild, I love the comparison between Matt getting into peoples' heads and his father's ability.

I did go back and freeze frame the photo. There's an African American woman sitting next to Charles Derveaux. I was wondering if maybe she's the mother.
