YAAB

So, I and many other people, are fans of a TV series known as Heroes. Describing the series pretty much requires a wiki, so I’m not even going to attempt it.

Since it has been a long time since the previous season (December to September was hiatus), there was a 3 hour premiere. The first hour was a gala celebration with scenes from future episodes (most of which were from the episodes that aired that day), as well as important scenes for important characters. Very near the end, it showed the final scene from season 2: Nathan being shot.

The second hour was the first episode of the new season, The Second Coming. We got to see lots of bits of information, and one bit of speculation was put to rest by a simple 2 line dialogue:

“Are you gonna eat it?”
“Eat your brain? Claire, that’s disgusting.”
— Claire, Sylar

The second hour of the premiere was The Butterfly Effect. Most of the major events was more politically inclined, rather than news of the various people.

Of course, there’s more questions raised as well. For one, where did future!Peter get that lovely scar across his face? For some reason, I want to say that we knew, but its not showing up in the Heroes wiki on first glance (and of course, that’s when I find a reference to it).

Also, Mohinder is an utter and complete idiot. Peter needs to learn that if someone is telling him to not do something, that maybe that person is right.

Also, Maya’s powers kick in when her adrenaline is high? That makes for some interesting issues. Such as allergies (EpiPen anyone?). Or as others have mentioned, hopefully she doesn’t become an adrenaline junkie if she survives the series. Bungee jumping just would be kinda not so good. Or heck, birth and the whole process leading up to birth? Plus, granted that her ability is handy in a fight-or-flight type situation, but it also leaves her by herself if she was ever put into that situation (ie: can’t save comrades).

Linderman’s invisible (some might speculate, ghostly?) reappearance also derails any chance of speculation about how Nathan is healed. Though, is it possible for a ghost to heal? Until he was shown, I was half wondering why Peter didn’t hand over some of his blood to Nathan. Then, I remembered that Peter has the ability to heal, but his wouldn’t heal blood can’t heal anyone else. Also, that was future!Peter with Nathan, and his whole goal was to kill Nathan, not heal him.

Ah well, the series continues and questions will be raised and answered for quite awhile.
