Episode Report Card Couch Baron: C | 921 USERS: B YOU GRADE IT There's…Another Part?
By Couch Baron | Season 3 | Episode 10 | Aired on 2008.11.24
As Hiro and Ando watch eagerly from off to the side, Matt knocks on Daphne's door. A no-nonsense older man answers the door and informs Matt that Daphne isn't there. Convinced that that's not true, even though for all he knows she could have zipped out in the last couple minutes and been halfway to China by now, he calls in to her directly, and she responds by telling him to go away. Matt then tries to use his mind mojo on the dad, using his Intense Stare With Head to the Side, but it of course doesn't work, and after the second attempt, the dad bemusedly asks, "Why are you turning your head sideways?" Ha! That one actually made me laugh. Hopefully Matt will remember that question once the eclipse is over. Daphne's dad then withdraws, and after Matt tells Hiro and Ando what happened, Hiro does a power check and comes up empty as well...
...and inside, Daphne's sitting morosely on her bed as her dad comes in and asks if he's going to tell her who that was. The answer is no, and when he pointedly asks if she's feeling okay, she tells him, "It's happening again." He winces and says he's sorry, and when she asks if he still has "them," says yes, and goes off to get The Big Secret, like, unless he's going to get the multiple crack babies that the two of them made together, I don't think all this buildup is warranted.
