First Post, also Polar Bears and Spa Debacles

Oh, Heroes. One day, you will stop winning at life and I will be forced to find another show to obsess over.

SPOILER ALERT.

Thoughts on Heroes, Season 2, Episode 3: "Kindred"


1. I'm pretty convinced that Claire is a descendant of Kensei's. They're both golden children, snappy, and in a constant state of WHINE. Oh, not to mention that whole 'we can regenerate ourselves' thing.

2. Mohinder and Matt? "What are you doing home?" I was so torn between laughing hysterically and exploding from the sweetness that wasn't anywhere except in my mind. They are so married... without the love aspect.

3. ZOMG THE TATTOO TURNED INTO THE HELIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Um, hi, where do I get my own disappearing tattoo?

4. "The man with the horn-rimmed glasses." Ouch. When Claire brings West home to meet the parents? That's gonna be AWKWARD.
** NOTE: Hi, boys. THAT is how you sweep a girl off her feet. You FLY her off into the clouds and then kiss her on a beach. I hope you're taking notes. You might want to get on that flying thing.

5.
Dear Milo Ventimiglia,

Please go shirtless for the rest of the season.

Thanks,
R.C.

6. Oh, Sylar. You totally saw through her wiles because of the whole thing with you liking men. Go you. Except, you know, you can't do shit about it. PS: You're on the Lost island. If you see a polar bear... well, once upon a time I would have told you to kill its ass. But since you've been pretty much neutered, my suggestion would be to run in the opposite direction. Don't stop, don't fucking stop.

7. Oh, Hiro. I love you. My love for you knows no bounds. You make me laugh, you make me smile, you make me have homicidal thoughts when it comes to finding your happiness. I would gladly knock off Kensei for you so you and Kaeko could be happy together. Let me know. I'll just make a phone call... I know a guy who knows a guy.

8. Maya and Alejandro. There hasn't been a more boring storyline since I was forced to read Snow Falling on Cedars in the 9th grade. I appreciate it now, but then? I was ready to release the inner pyro in me and set the stupid thing on fire. No jury would've convicted me. But during Maya and Alejandro's big scene that lasted more than two minutes (as long as I can stand them) I went out to make myself a bagel with peanut butter. Yawn.

9. Claire, stop using your straightening iron. Your hair looks like it came from the tail of a horse. Kthx.

10. Next episode: SOMEONE SCRAPED THE DEAD ANIMAL OFF OF THE HIGHWAY THAT IS NATHAN'S FACE!!!
