That "death sign" was prevalent a lot last season. I remember it being in the computer code, and I think Nikki even had it as a mark on her.

That wasn't the death mark - it was the Kensei sign, same one as on Hiro's sword. I think what makes it the death sign is that it is signed in red (implying blood) over the image of the victim.

It was also scrawled between the eyes, like in Molly's pictures.

Iirc there was an interview with one of the writers that said Sylar would be around this season and I expect that's true if you recall how the season ended. As for Claire and her new buddy, at least he's not some dork with a video camera, when Bennet told her not to be a cheerleader I was a little bummed but we'll see how that plays out. Bennet's encounter with his boss was funny as hell, and why is Nathan suddenly a useless lush? At the end of last season he actually shows that he's a human being and 4 months later he turns into an emo drunk :( I think I liked him better when he was a douchebag. That logo that Sandgk posted is in every episode, and yes, it's on the back of jessicas shoulder but not Nikki's I believe, I think when Jessica took over she was covering it with make up.

Yep, the sign is in every epsidoe (or at least alot of them).

The montage at the beginning had alot of stuff from last season in there.

I can understand Peter being alive (since he does have Claire's power) but Nathan is still a surprise. And with him being alive though, I can understand his angst as he feels he helped kill his own brother. And it was weird how he looked in the mirror and saw a scarred side of him, then looked in the other mirror and it was fine. Weird... but I trust that we will find out as the season goes on.

About the "virus" if you recall Molly had the same sickness as Suresh's sister. And Molly was cured by the anti-bodies that Suresh had in his body. My only question is has this virus spread? Because as Suresh was trying to sell his idea he was saying this was a widely spread disease??? Seemed like only 2 reported cases of this.

I definitely think we will find out how Nathan survived later on. Maybe Peter ended up flying away from him so he did not die too. I'm sure it will come up. I think the "spreading" of the virus may be a ploy by Suresh and Bennett. Since during Suresh's phone call to Bennett he was telling him how the Company guy took the bait.

I was bummed to see George Tekei's character get killed off. I'm a huge fan of his and liked him in the show. Can't wait for next week's episode.

Yeah, I was kind of bummed to see Tekei's character go too, however, if they are also going to kill off Nathans mom I will make that trade.

Not that I have any good speculation to go with these pics, other than it is definitely not Nathan as I thought the writers were leading us to believe.

On the Heroes NBC site, they have episode pics. One is of the assasin standing in the shadows. Can't tell much other than it appears to be a male character of relatively slight build.

I lightened the pic with Adobe Photoshop...The person appears to be a male, white, no facial hair (other than maybe a minimal 'five o'clock shadow'), pronounced chin, and possibly blood on his hands.

Could be someone we haven't met yet, but if I had to match physical features from those characters we already know, then I'd have to go with Peter, English Kensei, or Claires new friend, West. (though it really doesn't look quite like any of them to me)

Again, they could take this in any direction, but I thought it was interesting to see an actual face at least a little better than what was shown in the show.

(i hope the attachments show well enough)

Thoughts?

 

[Piney]

Another great episode last night as we do get some answers (or at least more clues on what happens). Plus so much is happening...

Peter has amnesia eh? Figures after you blow up like a nuclear bomb that your memory is kinda screwy.

Hiro does become Kensai (or at least to get things rolling). But interesting that the english Kensai is also a "hero". Will be interesting how they interact over the weeks to team up.

Interesting how Parkman was trying to read Petrelli's mothers thoughts and her realizing it and telling him to get out of her mind. I thought that was funny. But interesting how the "dark figure" tried to kill her. Seems like he can be invisible, or could it be more teleporting of some method? I wonder if he has multiple powers?

Now we get to the twins and find out the brother is the only person it seems to counter her sister's deadly power.

 

[Padraig]

I didn't get to watch this past episode :(. I'll have to catch the rerun before next week, or watch it on my computer when they get the episode on line.

But here are a few speculations / theories / spoilers I've found in some chat rooms: Could be complete BS, but if you don't want to risk it, don't read on.

From what I've been reading, some people believe that Mrs. Petrelli is behind the murder of Hiro's father and possibly others (hired / ordered the hit) but that Claude (invisible Man) was the one trying to kill Mrs. P.

Also rumor has it that Bob (Midas / Gold Finger Company man) is the scary, evil guy in Molly's dreams, and he also turns out to be Matt's father.

Sylar was rescued by Candice (hot illusionist / shape shifter) but being a complete ass, Sylar kills her to get her powers, only to discover he's starting to lose all the ones he had accumulated.

Nikki / Jessica goes back to work for The Company (don't know if she's bad again, or if she's trying to bring them down with Bennet & Suresh.



Anyway, I don't know if any of this is true, or even if any of it was touched on in Lizards (episode II). I guess I need to watch it asap.

Can't wait 'till Monday! (stupid, crappy Monday Night Bengals tickets made me miss something truly entertaining )

Interesting as that doesn't marry with the picture previously enhanced by you and posted here for the presumptive killer of Hiro's father.

Also rumor has it that Bob (Midas / Gold Finger Company man) is the scary, evil guy in Molly's dreams, and he also turns out to be Matt's father.

What basis?

Sylar was rescued by Candice (hot illusionist / shape shifter) but being a complete ass, Sylar kills her to get her powers, only to discover he's starting to lose all the ones he had accumulated.

Sylar did appear to appear to be in the previews for next week - probably why we hear rumors of his demise / incapacitation.

Nikki / Jessica goes back to work for The Company (don't know if she's bad again, or if she's trying to bring them down with Bennet & Suresh.

If she goes to work for "The Company" it must certainly be as a mole.

 

[Padraig]

For speculation sake, let's say that English Kensei is the Assasin in the shadows...I'm not convinced from the pic, but I suppose it could be. He was shown to be able to heal himself, therefore if he jumped off the building to kill Hiro's father, he could have survived and walked away (I know...speedy recovery, but still could be written that way)

Mrs. P says that the "death" mark is the symbol of her late husbands law firm while being interogated by Matt. We also know that it's the symbol of Kensei. Sure, a lose afiliation since it seems everyone is using that symbol now-a-days, but could be a sign that English Kensei is under employment of Mrs. P.

But if Mrs. P hired someone to kill Hiro's dad, that same person wouldn't kill the hand that feeds him, and we all know what 'love' Claude has for the Company, and he could have attacked Mrs. Petrelli as an invisible man and escape Police detection.

I found no basis available for the Bob = Evil Dream dude = Matt's father...just internet rumors from people who claim to have inside info. Could be crap...just thought it was interesting and worthy of 'food for thought'.

And I definitely hope Nikki/Jessica is still on the 'good guys' side. Maybe because she's hot (yeah, I'm sure that's it) but when she leveled Sylar with the parking meter in the Season 1 Finale, I cheered! She can work me over any time she...ahem, anyway...just throwing out some of the theries I've read elsewhere.

Didn't Ando say that the godsend symbol was of Hiros fathers company as well?

Here are some SWAGs....


This season is titled Generations so we will probably see more of various family trees and we will probably learn about generations going back.

English Kensai's bloodline probably leads to Claire somehow. Who knows, maybe even Hiros.

We also learn that Mrs P. and Hirs dad were an item.

Just a couple of thoughts...

 

[OCBucksFan]

Well there was a hint that Hiro's dad and Mrs. Petreli used to be "involved" during her interrogation. I thought it was interesting that she knew Matt was in her head, Claires ability to reproduce her limbs is obviously going to foreshadow something.

I don't know if I like where the Hiro story line is going, but we'll see how that plays out.

 

[Padraig]

I read somewhere that this week, Hiro starts communicating with Ando somehow from the past. I think that will help start to tie Hiro back into the present mix more, making his story more connected to the overall plot and more enjoyable, at least for myself.

 

[sandgk]

Claires ability to reproduce her limbs is obviously going to foreshadow something.

Claire: "I don't even know if I can get sick"

Cure for the bleeding eye disease perhaps? Cure for the virus targeting the heroes?
