Heroes 1x17: "Company Man" (yes, a day earlier than the US! w00t!)

Oh.

My.

Word.

I am sitting here in front of the screen crying like a big fat baby. I love HRG so much right now. "Go deep. Take anything that might lead them to her." Oh, HRG, HRG. *sob*

And Mrs. Bennet! Who would have thought she'd be responsible for delivering the Speech of Spiritual Awesome? I love her too.

Also, Ecclescake all young and cleanshaven and floppy-haired and brimming with idealism (no wonder he mocked Peter!) = fantastic.

And Matt being the new HRG sidekick! SUDDENLY HE HAS A PLOT AND IT IS BEYOND COOL. Were they setting him up for this all along with the boring backstory, or did it just occur to them along the way? In either case, I heartily approve.

I still don't know exactly what Eric Roberts in all his creepy splendor, and therefore HRG & Co., were/are actually up to. Just tagging and tracing heroes, and/or disposing of those who posed too great a threat to society? But it does seem that they somehow augment the heroes' powers in the process of studying them. Why? And what are they going to do now that they can't wipe their memories any more? Hmm...

I am going to miss the Bennet family home. Actually, I'm just going to miss the Bennet family, period. Boo hoo!

I really wish I had Hiro's powers so I could go forward in time to next week already.

HOLY........ Okay, I can see why you rushed to post about this episode. Wow.

Okay, this comment turned into a long post so I'm moving it to my journal. :~p

I'm going to be at a conference next week, so I have to program my VCR to tape it. Eep!
