Episode 7 Strange attractors alternated between the plot to isolate Claire by killing Gretchen, Trying to rescue Jeremy from jail and Matt Parkman facing off with Sylar’s personae inside his head. I honestly didn’t expect Jeremy’s fate to end up the way it did, it was surprising and terribly sad, and honestly I thought it was both impressive and equally surprising how Samuel reacted when he heard the news by collapsing the entire building with the police inside.
Claire manages to save Gretchen from Becky’s clumsy attempts to end her life and even manages to injure and expose her, now that Gretchen is getting closer to Claire, I wonder if they will team up in a “one of us, one of them” type of fashion in the near future. It is likely that Claire and Gretchen will become some type of relationship as well if things continue down the path they are heading.
Matt Parkman forced to watch as Sylar takes over his body and begins to ruin his life, Matt wisely told his wife to flee, only for her to foolishly return with his partner and they try to treat him like an AA who is back at step 1. Unfortunately, Matt fails to dispose of Sylar’s consciousness and in fact weakens his own ability to keep him at bay by drinking himself into a near coma. Sylar now in control is seen maniacally laughing in the hallway and my question is this:
Why isn’t Janice fleeing to the nearest country by now? If you saw your husband maniacally laughing like that, wouldn’t you skidaddle like nobody’s business?
The show was entertaining although I thought some of the scenes were a little slower than last week and lacked as much suspense, there was a little too much predictability in the “slaughter house” and other than when Claire finally caught Becky, the rest was a little drab. Noah seems to be on a losing streak lately, striking out and continuing to make mistakes as he tries to right his past wrongs, while Tracy is likely to join the Carnival in the near future. I still don’t know the purpose and master goal of the carnival, once they build their family, what is their purpose? Clearly several don’t have qualms about killing “normal people”, but Samuel particularly seems to have some sort of odd affection for others with abilities, one can only wonder what his master plans are.
TV.com voting poll shows this episode actually even out ranked last weeks Tabula Rasa, which was a 9 rating, this episode a 9.2 rating with over 30 votes. So this episode appears to be a fan favorite so far in the Season.
That is my review of the latest Heroes Episode, Heroes fans or haters, what did you think of the Episode?

Nice recap! I loved tonight’s episode! That, or I was relieved by it… I spent a lot of the episode thinking (expletives deleted), don’t you kill off Claire’s not-quite-girlfriend! (Expletive deleted)! Since that didn’t happen, I was pleasantly surprised.
That said, I’m ready for Sylar to be Sylar, again. The whole Nathan-Sylar-Parkman thing needs to end, as far as I’m concerned.
I don’t trust Carnival Guy. No, not at all…

Samuel seems to have a Magneto like agenda trying to get his people ready to strike the moment they come after specials again.

Yeah, and he can manipulate earth and liquids like Magneto did metal.

Heroes was one of my favorite shows. When I came to know Robert Knepper(Samuel aka Carnival guy)was in this season.. I was real exited to watch it. But the past few episodes are real slow..I’m losing interest in this show.. hope it gets better soon!

I liked the episode overall although I thought they could have spent less time on Claire and the sorority hazing and more time on other stories.
I was a little shocked at what they did to Jeremy and not in a good way. I don’t watch HEROES for a downer. It used to uplift me.
I love the Sylar/Matt story and I can’t wait to see Sylar-as-Nathan meet up with Sylar-inside-Matt.

I agree, the sorority bits were a bit boring except when Claire exposed Becky, and the Jeremy bit was sad and disappointing, but sometimes it emulates realism.
