Parkman's. Matt's waking up from his passout with a big-ol' hangover. He greets Janice sweetly, and Rick Worthy says he gave them quite a scare. He says he knows and is sorry, but he just had to see if he could, um, and he looks around for what we assume is Sylon. He says he's much better now and Rick Worthy gives him a one-day chip. He says it's time to start over from the beginning. Matt agrees and thanks them both. Janice hugs him and tells him she loves him. He says she'll love him more after he showers, and gets up to go take one. As he walks away, he throws an apple in the air, and when he catches it, clocks are ticking and he's Sylon, having taken over Matt's body. He turns a corner and we see Matt, who must be the Sylon now. Sylon says the second Matt blacked out, he slipped in and is in the driver's seat now. Matt-Sylon tells him he'll never get away with this, and Sylon-as-Matt says he already has as he takes a bite of an apple and laughs evilly. Janice watches sadly as her husband laughs and talks to himself. Rick Worthy just rubs her back comfortingly.Georgia. Samuel arrives and sees Jeremy's blood staining the street. He watches some men walk into the police station. He raises his arms as the earth rumbles and the whole station crashes to the ground. As it falls to the ground in a huge crash, he turns and walks away. Proving Andy Samberg right once again: "Cool Guys Don't Look At Explosions." Whose side are we supposed to be on here? The hillbillies? Samuel's? HRG's? Lydia's? And are we supposed to factor in Lydia's fear in Slow Burn? And, if so, should I be watching the online-only episodes?
Next time: We finally get the continuation of Hiro arriving at the Burnt Toast Diner as he sees Charlie. This time, Samuel's there, though, telling him not to change history. And then old Sylar shows up to kill her. Am I the only one excited Jayma Mays is back on this show, despite her work on that much better one? I always loved Charlie and Hiro, so I'm glad we might get him some closure on that. Although is actual closure a possibility on Heroes, on which they bring back characters who have been dead, by going back in time, giving them a triplet, or having a shapeshifter shift into them?
