Shooter: 1 Nathan: 0

Powerless - In this mid-season wrap-up, Peter saves the world AGAIN, this time by destroying the virus before it hits the floor; Niki may or may not perish in a building fire; Bennet goes back into the fold; Sylar gets his powers back; and Nathan winds up with two bullets in his chest. Don't worry, it's probably all just a dream. How many people hope the end of the season is Nathan in a shower? Huh? Anyone?

Get Your Flu Shots

Truth & Consequences - Because this virus is coming, and it can't be cured unless you have, say, some of Claire's blood and some of Mohinder's blood. Peter and Adam are on the hunt for a mutated strain that Peter wants to stop but Adam wants to release. In other news, Bennet's not dead but his family thinks he is, Monica's been captured by a gang, and Hiro is on the rampage.

Dawn Of The Dead Dads

Cautionary Tales - Bennet's Death Painting comes true when he is forced to make an exchange with Tobby in order to get his little Claire Bear back. Mohinder really DOES shoot him through the eye and Claire really DOES hug West in the background. But it's all good, because Bennet gets dosed with some of Claire's blood and comes back to life. You didn't think he'd actually DIE, did you?

Meeeemmmmory! All Alone In The Moooonliiiiight!

Four Months Ago... - Peter meets up with Adam and travels down memory lane in an effort to remember who the hell he is and why he's here. Peter apparently holds all the memories for the rest of the Heroes as well, because we catch up with everyone who's done anything over the past four months, including the Wonderless Twins, who continue to annoy with their useless storyline. Maybe if their heads were made of queso, we'd be more inclined to pay attention?

So, This Time It's "Stop The Plague, Save The World"?

Out Of Time - When Peter discovers that the Shanti virus has taken out over 90% of the world's population, it becomes clear that this season's mission is clear: Stop the Virus. And when Takezo Kensei shows up as Adam Monroe, the season's secondary mission becomes clear: Let's Kill the ElderHeroes! And the tertiary mission is that Adrian Pasdar is hot. What? That could be a mission!

A Virus Without A Cure -- Kind Of Like Britney Spears

The Line - Only with fewer paparazzi and more underwear. The Company is developing a "vaccine" for superpowers and, if the end of the episode is any indication, this does not bode well for the future. As for the rest of the plots, the Twins and Sylar make it to America, Monica digs her powers, Hiro breaks time, and Bennet returns to his old ways when he shoots a poor Russian clown in the head. He is going straight to hell, y'all.

If I Choose Flight, Do I Get Frequent Flyer Miles?

Fight Or Flight - Because Momma needs a vaycay. There are like a quintillion storylines in this particular episode, so it's practically impossible to nutshell all of them. Suffice it to say that Monica learns what her power really is, Veronica Mars shows up to hunt down Peter, and Matt's daddy is a big ol' meany who likes to hand out nightmares like they're M&Ms.

All TV Is Educational

The Kindness Of Strangers - Matt persuades Molly to look into the abyss, and the abyss looks back -- in the form of Matt's dad. Maya and Alejandro meet up with Sylar, Claire's secret relationship with West gets off the ground, and Micah's cousin Monica discovers a superpower that should soon have her spending a lot more time in front of the tube. If only I had that excuse.

Kissing a Fool. Or Two.

Kindred - There's a lot of kissing happening in this episode. Well, at least, there's SOME kissing in this episode, which is more than we've ever had in any other episode. Claire kisses West after he flies her to the beach without a plane, Caitlin kisses Peter after his chest spits out some bullets, Maya and Alejandro don't kiss because that would be incest, and Hiro wishes he could kiss Yaeko AND Kensei because he loves them both so much!

How To Avoid Expensive Pedicures

Lizards - Just cut off your toes. Claire does it, and it's saving her a fortune! But in this instance, she's trying to see what she can and can't do: apparently, she can grow new limbs just like a newt. Hiro faffs around back in 1671 some more and learns that Kensei is a "godsend" in more ways than one. Mohinder delivers the Haitian Sensation to Mr. Bennet as the Irish hooligans deliver Peter's name to him. But Peter has his shirt back on by then, so we're really not paying much attention.
