Villains
Finally, an easy-to-follow episode: thank god! This episode is different from every episode I’ve seen, first there wasn’t a “Chapter Eight: Villains”, instead of the usual Heroes opening, there was a Villains opening. and in the end the words “To Be Continued” show up in the actual scene and not in a black screen in the end. That’s a nice effect, well in this episode we could relax and watch…yes it wasn’t the best episode ever but this episode is a good episode, we could follow three storylines:
1. One year ago: days or weeks before Genesis, Nathan is the new D.A. and he decides to investigate everything about Linderman’s business, since Arthur is deeply involved with Linderman, he decides to kill Nathan, so we discover that the actual responsible of Nathan and Heidi’s accident was Arthur. Nathan blames him. Angela refuses to believe Arthur has something to do with his son’s accident, but then she listen to them, Arthur decides to force Angela to forget and keep with their normal life. Linderman is scared that Arthur is becoming too evil and could destroy his own plans, so he heals Angela, who then hires the Haitian to block Arthur’s powers while she poison him. Arthur is still in control of his mental powers but he can’t move, so he orders the doctor to tell his family he is already dead.
2. Gabriel after killing his first victim is really sorry about that and he attempts to suicide, but Elle saves him, we learn that Elle is working with HRG to collect information about him, and turning him into his “real” face. “an unpity killer”. Gabriel and Elle starts to trust each other and they start a relationship, Gabriel tells Elle that when he’s with her, he actually can control his “hunger” for new powers. Elle tries to convince Bennet not to force Gabriel to kill, but HRG tells her, that if she doesn’t do that, she probably has to find a job as a waitress and quit the company. Elle decides to follow the plan by bringing to his dinner with Sylar another evolved human: Trevor Zeitlan. Elle overreacts when she sees Trevor’s power, destroying some glasses without touching them. Sylar feels anger and he is going to kill Trevor, Elle tries to stop him, by using her ability. Sylar finds out Elle lied to him, and he attacks her, she leaves, and finally Sylar kills Trevor, and his hands are covered with blood. HRG takes Mohinder’s cap (Genesis).
3. Meredith is Flint’s sister, and they work as thieves. Thompson finds them and lock them up, but he wants Meredith to be an agent, so he takes her to Texas to capture another evolved human Danny Pine. Meredith does great, but when she comes back to the company she finds Flint is there. Meredith decides to release Flint and go to Mexico with him. But Thompson is the train and in the middle of the fight Flint escape, Meredith and Thompson also do it. Thompson is taking Meredith to NYC but he decides to release her when she tells him, that the company took her daughter: Claire. Then we see that the it is the same train crash, where Claire took the fireman in Genesis.
This is the all new promo of Heroes 3×05 “Angels and Monsters”; Armed with H.R.G.’s (Jack Coleman) old files and a taser, Claire (Hayden Panettiere) attempts to take down her first target – Stephen Canfield (Andre Royo), a Level 5 escapee with the ability to create black holes – unaware that others are closing in. Meanwhile, in horror, Peter (Milo Ventimiglia) flees from all the death and destruction in the future, only to grimly discover how deeply the experience has changed him. Frustrated that Adam Monroe (guest star David Anders) didn’t get them closer to “the formula,” Hiro (Masi Oka) takes a stab at becoming friends with Daphne (guest star Brea Grant) and new associate Knox (guest star Jaime Hector), much to Ando’s (James Kyson Lee) dismay. Later, Suresh’s (Sendhil Ramamurthy) urge to correct research errors puts Maya (Dania Ramirez), among others, in a sticky situation. Linderman (guest star Malcolm McDowell) advises Nathan (Adrian Pasdar) to stick by Tracy (Ali Larter), seeing that they could accomplish great things together. In Africa, Matt (Greg Grunberg) sees his vision of “happily ever after” destroyed.
Zachary Quinto and Cristine Rose star. Alan Blumenfeld, Ashley Crow, Jessalyn Gilsig, Brea Grant, Jamie Hector, David H. Lawrence XVII and Andre Royo guest star.
Differences between Volume Two and Volume Three
October 7, 2008 in heroes | Tags: comment, heroes, villains, volume | Leave a comment
Well, I was very amazed by the quality of the first two episodes of the Volume Three: The Second Coming and The Butterfly Effect, they were perfect and they really kicked the volume two’s ass…actually all the episodes so far has been amazing, perfect but the last episode I am Become Death has been very weird, it’s like they were desperate to connect all the storylines together and it feels overwhelming, we all know that ALL will have something to do, but not everyone at the same time, and I’m not talking about time on screen. They should learn of LOST where every character has a very special moment, that introduces us to their development, but we don’t see them talking about it all the time, this point support the character behaviour through the storyline, and HEROES was this way on the first Volume, but now it seems that ALL the characters have to be the leading character in every episode they show up, I see the same mistake in Grey’s Anatomy where it seems that every character has a storyline in every episode, that must be really hard for the writers and it confuses us (or me) a lot; for ensemble casts, the writers must have in mind that the characters should take the leading role one by one, having the rest as supporting, all of them have their time of glory eventually, not at the same time, and in a two or three-hours season finale, put them all together as leadings, the secret of Desperate Housewives is that there are 4 storylines in every episode, stories easy to follow, but in this episode of heroes, I count well let’s count
Six, (OMG) six, and Grey’s Anatomy was on the same page in their three first season the writers put two main characters working together so the storylines were few and interesting, in this case, quantity is never better than quality, LOST had improved this by putting several characters together so they all follow a goal but all of them for different reasons, here we have lots of characters with several storylines. I hope it was just a one episode issue. The season one did this and did it right putting special moments for every character but not at the same time, one for Hiro, another for Claire, another for Peter, but I don’t know what they were thinking.
