Episode Report Card Erin: A+ | 90 USERS: B- YOU GRADE IT The Future's So Blight, I Gotta Wear Hades
By Erin | Season 1 | Episode 20 | Aired on 2007.04.30
Back in the room, Hiro pulls a blood-spattered panel of the comic out of Future Hiro's pocket. I'm not sure, but I think it shows Future Hiro dead. Ando looks up at Hiro and says they need to get the hell outta there. Hiro's stuck on the whole future-self-being-dead thing. Peter's standing by the door and suddenly, a hand phases through and pulls him out. Out in the hallway, Peter goes sliding along the floor as Nathan/Sylar turns to Matt. "Get in there, Parkman," he grits. "End this." Parkman is clearly stunned. "Sir." Matt turns back to the door as Nathan/Sylar turns to Peter. "Brother versus brother," he says, walking down the hallway. "It's almost biblical." Peter says that his brother can't walk through walls, so who the hell is he? Sylar returns to his own form and says, "An old friend." Oooooooooh.
Matt continues to try and break down the door, even though Sylar is standing not FOUR FUCKING FEET AWAY FROM HIM. I'm really trying to figure out if Matt knows that Nathan is Sylar, or if he doesn't know and the writers are done caring if we think he's stupid. Inside the room, Mohinder grabs Future Hiro's sword and gives it to Hiro, saying that he has to get out of there NOW. Outside, Peter says that Sylar's going to pay for what he did to Nathan, what he did in Nathan's name. "What I did?" says Sylar, igniting his hands with blue ice. "When I killed him, he had already turned against his own kind." "Liar!" says Peter, igniting his own hands with red fire. The two men move toward each other to begin battle.
Back in the room, Ando implores Hiro to teleport back to their own time. The battle outside the door keeps threatening to break inside as Mohinder valiantly tries to keep the SWAT guys AND Peter and Sylar's war from getting in. Hiro says he can't go back in time. Ando says he believes in him. "I've seen the man that you become. You can do this!" Mohinder holds back the battle outside as Hiro finally believes in himself and grabs the sword. There's a flash of light as Mohinder screams.
When the light clears, we're with Hiro and Ando on the Superhero Superroof. It's five years in the past. New York's intact. Hiro pulls out the Last Comic and sees the panel where he's supposed to stab Sylar. "And now for the hard partâ¦" he says, pushing up his glasses. Hee.
Next on Heroes: Only three more episodes left! And Hiro has to kill Sylar! And there's a new Hero and it's that little girl Molly! Woo!
