our father: another non-recap

noooooooooooooooo

so she is dead, rendering Sylar's whole storyline for the past season almost pointless? no time for in depth recap for this episode so just a few thoughts. aparently this is hoe Elles body birning scene should have been...
According to a blog post by Greg Beeman, the scene in which Sylar burns Elle's body was originally written a little differently. "There was a final shot Jeannot designed for this scene that ended up being cut out. It was a huge crane shot that swooped away as Sylar stood over Elle's burning body. I remember the script read: 'Sylar stands on her burning body. A tinge of remorse. Giving Elle far more respect than any of his previous victims.' Anyway, the shot was very dramatic and I found it very haunting, almost beautiful. But the network standards and practices people and even Tim Kring thought it was too disturbing. So we cut it—and ended up playing the scene on a simple close up Sylar. This works too. I don't know, maybe America's not ready for full-on immolation." from Heroeswiki

WHY DID THEY NOT KEEP THAT?
i have heard that in volume 4, a blonde we thought dead isnt or something cryptic like that. but that could well be tracy or daphne or meredith (she is in the finale). i am pretty sure she is dead to present day Hereos. very sad. the scene with hiro getting the catalyst was also pretty sad, i will miss 10 year old Hiro! i dont understnad how the future hasnt been changed dramatically by Hiro and Clare meeting their parents, surely once young Clare grows up HRG would see the striking resemblance to the random girl he met 16 years before. Sylar was much like s1 Sylar in this epi, very funny, but his storyline development has been disappointing of late. Peter continued his rehabilitation in my eyes, but i fear he will become super annoying again when he regains his power (obviously going to happen next episode). Maphne were annoying as ever. i have so many qualms with this season now, that completely didnt exist at the start grrrrr. anyway, here are 4 sneak peeks for the finale, entitled Dual.

a few tidbits:

  • doyle will be in this episode
  • this episode leads directly into volume 4
  • one characters decision will be very influential and have great consequnces in volume 4
  • meredith is back
  • mr african isaac is back
  • rumour has it Monica (season 2) is back, but i doubt it
  • one of clares foster/real parents is gonna die (better not be sandra)
  • andos getting a power
thoughts on the episode, spoilers for volume 4 and tips on what they should do to improve coming next week!
