Heroes 2x02 - "Lizards"

[bagheera_san]

1. For some reason, I can't help to think of the Bennet's storyline as "Claire Bennet moves to Sunnydale and is stalked by Superboy". Also: she cut her toe off. WTF. And Superstalker is my prime suspect for Kaito Nakamura's murder.

2. Mohinder is still hot. Especially when he sweats. I loved the Haiti setting: one of the really awesome things about Heroes is how they keep globetrotting and using different locations. And the Haitian is back with Bennet! Whee!

3. Hiro's storyline continues to make me gleeful, because it is such a fairytale/comicbook story. The cherryblossoms! You see, SV is cute because it's corny, but Heroes is awesome, because it's intentionally and skillfully corny. Also: Kensei is a Highlander immortal. At least until canon contradicts me :D (Come on. He's a gaijin with a sword in a historical setting who can heal from mortal injuries. If that's not Highlander, I don't know what it is.)

4. God, am I ever not interested in Maya and Alejandro. So she has black oil from X-Files and he stole Peter's hair. Who cares?*yawn*

5. Peter's short hair is no improvement, but his shirtlessness and bloodiness was. Nathan's beard looks so fake that I'm going to be disappointed if he doesn't take it off in some future episode. It's also extremely unbecoming.

6. Mr. Bennet continues to rock.
