Episode Report Card Couch Baron: B- | 906 USERS: B YOU GRADE IT Sleep To Dream

In the morning, Claire comes to, having slept in the chair, to find Nathan already awake and standing, and unless he previously bought some over-the-counter Vicodin to kill his hangover, I'm calling bullshit that he was able to get out of bed at all. He thanks Claire for her help the night before, but then reneges on the promise he made, saying he has no friends on the Hill anymore and, while he's open to suggestions, is out of ideas. Claire is predictably disappointed at how lame her bio-dad is yet again proving to be, and gets up to go, but turns back to speechify about what an incredible disappointment he is, as Nathan has no choice but to accept his age-reversed role as the scolded party here. She says that when she met him, he was even more amazing than she dreamed, and he could still do anything if he wanted. She cries as she tells him he's supposed to be Superman, and when Nathan hangs his head in shame, she leaves. I'd suggest he drown his sorrows if I weren't afraid that the mere mention of alcohol in his current condition would cause him to befoul some more of the lovely town.
Back in the now-empty church, Angela comes to with her head on Peter's shoulder and happily tells him she had a dream about the female angel depicted on the church's stained glass. She says they have to go grab Nathan and Claire and then visit her sister, and my feeling that it's bullshit that she's never been mentioned on the show before is overwhelmed by my excited curiosity as to who they've cast in the role. The two of them head out...
