Truth and Lies…er, Consequences

Well, the season finale for part two of the Heroes saga is finally upon us, and as it comes closer and closer and my Advent calendars(I got one from Hallmark thanks to my dad, and I bought another at Walgreens because I couldn’t stand to not have the usual chocolate delights every day up to Christmas Eve) start opening their doors and I decorate my borrowed electric tree and the house with mini-lights, it’s time to look back at some of the theories I gave in the last Heroes post and what was proven right and what was proven wrong.

First off, the ashes. Bob’s the giver of the urn, but whether he is keeping up the facade or someone lied to him and Bob thinks Noah is dead too is up to debate. We’ll see in the season finale whether Bob knows the truth. As for the scene in the house, let’s give it up for Sandra Bennett! (whistles and stomps feet)

Speaking of the truth, I was semi-right about Noah being locked up by the Company. In truth, 90% of my mind was voting that Suresh regenerated Noah to life, and it was proven right. I really liked how Mohinder bit Noah’s head off, even as Noah was spitting accusations of treason and profanities at him. As I said in the post of Noah’s fate, his paranoia and violent behavior got the best of him. Sorry, Noah, but Mohinder’s tougher than your av-er-age scientist and won’t flinch at being called an S.O.B. Maybe you need a time-out.

Mohinder does his research, fuses the two blood samples, and creates an uber-blood that can kill Nikki’s viral cocktail…

…and then Sylar, who had recently stabbed Maya’s twin in the heart and ended his life and then proceeded to make out with Maya, creeps in on Molly when she’s asleep and calls Suresh up for help, meaning he has to delay his return to Nikki to get the antibody to her.

Not like she’s going to live for much longer, if the trailer for the finale hints at what I think Nikki’s fate is.

We get back to Peter and Adam, and Hiro does another time-travel trip to learn about the man formerly called Kensei. The dynamic duo finally meet Victoria Pratt, an ex-bio-geneticist who created a deadly mutation of Shanti’s virus capable of creating the bleak future that Peter saw, and thanks to Adam’s presence, Vicki goes all hillbilly on them with a shotgun. Thank goodness Peter got Claire’s ability or the whole plot would be dead in the water(no pun intended); Adam shoots first and Vicki joins Kaito in the hereafter.

Monica tries to steal back the backpack, gets caught. Moni, you are a total blockhead for not studying ways to avoid getting spotted. If you get raped, you have only yourself to blame. (No offense, Monica’s one of the few Blacks I really like. Micah is the other. DL was the third, but died a senseless death, and now Nikki…uh, nevermind.)

Finally, I see something I hate – Hiro decides to go medevial on Peter and he even says “You have chosen the wrong side” without even talking about the virus! Hiro, this is the only time I think you are a douche. >_<

Very awesome episode, and hopefully the finale will be crazy and end in a bang. From what I saw, the virus is about to be released by some butterfingers, and from a spoiler I read on 10th Wonder’s forum(I know it said spoilers, but I thought they wouldn’t post the spoilers in the message! Stupid me), Nate and Matt are going to be infected with it. Not only that, but Nikki will be turned into a scorched skeleton by an exploding diner. Again, this is just speculation on my part.

NOTES: I was wrong so far about Adam and Peter and it seems HRG is going to escape and make a deal to protect his family from the Company, and he’s going to shoot Bob and Elle is going to turn on her daddy-kins and give him the same fate he gave Caitlin’s brother. Ouch.

As for the Haitian, he didn’t appear in this episode either, but Claire was about to summon him. Good thing West stopped her or else she would learn how the Haitian’s ability worked and get really humiliated and break down again when the memory came back. However, about that confrontation with Elle…need I say it…? “WAY TO GO, CLAIRE! MARRY ME!” (Gets beaten up by the other Claire fanboys. O_o)

Well, tomorrow I’m going to try to get Super Mario Sunshine so I can start putting videos on YouTube like cloud8745 and Nintendo Central.
