Hey so about tonight's show..OMG!!
Thanks to MOlly we found out that Matt Parkman's father is the Boogeyman, and somehow he leaves her in a mental shock....
Monica, Micah's cousin, she has like a photographic memory, she is like Charlie from last season...coool power..she kicks ass...
Claire and Noah both lied to each other, this looks like the beginning of last season's relationship...Noah is part of the company or the old generation, i think he knows about Bob's plan thanks to the haitian guy...
Maya and Alejandro screwed up big time..omfg..i got so pissed off at her...We know that Derek guy cant be the Kyle Lucas, cuz his dead...or at least we think he is....Sylar now knows of the twin's power, and he really really wants that ability now...yeah i know total despair...

Well first off nice recap emmtastic but i just want to add somethings, like i think that Micahs cousin is a robot or is partly because micah can talk to computers and when he hugged her it was like he was teaching her things, or how to do things almost like installign something in her lol pretty weird , and about derek like there was a cocaroach on the ground when he died something tells me well definately be seeing more of him i thnk he is kyle lucas and he might have cloned sylars powers since sylar is always seen in those kind of shots with the bugs.
just something to think about. and yea maya and her brother are really screwed.

Allright, it seems as though I was off with thinking Derek was the infamous Kyle Lucas. I still think he'll play a villain at some point though.
Since we now know that the nightmare / boogeyman is Parkmans dad, is it easy to assume that it is a different person trying to kill off the elders? The voices in my head tell me that it may have been Peter - but not in his right mind. The Haitian could have been the reason for his amnesia and the necklace strengthens that theory - but like I (and a few others here) have said before.....Peter could have a split personality like Nikki after coming into contact with her and wasn't aware of his actions. Monk made a good point about that symbol always showing up as a tattoo on Nikki when she was her alter ego and then losing large chunks of time and being forgetful and hazy like. It's almost like his subconscious is acting out things that had been repressed, or at the behest of some other, more powerful entity. That entity could very well be evolution itself. It could be Bob. It could be his wanker.
The fact that Mama Petrelli decided to confess to something she may not have done strikes me as odd.......like she knows it was Peter somehow and doesn't want him found out.
I still wonder if Nathan got some of the side effects of the whole schizophrenia thing from either his close proximity to his bro, or his even closer proximity to Nikki's vagina. Whoopsees......can I say that? Well - I said wanker, so it's all even.
Best thing about this episode was answers! ANSWERS, I love them......
Except they blurred Papa friggin Petrellis face out.......

The reason why they 'blurred' Papa Petrelli's face is because of the family tie to 'the man with the horn rimmed glasses'... Take another look at the picture and tell me I am wrong.

OK...best episode of the season thus far, but leads to more questions. 1. Parkman's father - is he the real Boogeyman or is a more sinister force actually the Boogeyman and covering his/her true identity with a power of some kind through Molly's abilities? This would mislead Parkman. 2. Nathan - every time he looks in the mirror, he sees a reflection of his burned face. Could the explosion have split both he and Peter with all of Peter's powers shared between he and Peter (including Niki/Jessica personality split)? Did Nathan always have the same ability as Peter to absorb other hero powers...but chose only to reveal the power to fly in previous episodes? 3. Sylar - was he stripped of his powers somehow? does he still have his powers but using Maya and brother to infiltrate other heroes? has Sylar's appearance been taken by a more sinister force and the Sylar we saw in this episode truly another being? 4. Cockroach - we've seen this before when Sylar was in the cell at the paper company in Odessa...we saw it tonight after Sylar "knocked off" Derek. Is the cockroach a sign of another force? 5. West - I still don't trust the guy. I think he knows who Claire's father is and is trying to cause a rift to get to Noah...or exploite Claire's power for some other reason. 6. Mama Petrelli - she knows what is going on but why doesn't she tell Nathan?
Thoughts?

On another topic, DB mentioned the possibility that the killer is Nathan. I will entertain this theory a moment - let us have a look see:
When talking to Parkman, he tells him how he had seen Kaito at their house while growing up and said how his father was not fond of him. Maybe he knows she had an affair and is really pissed off about it, holding it in all these years...... but you know - he's a politician - so he can be real smooth like on the surface while being all f**ked up inside. He's been a wreck since thinking Peter blew up, smellin like a brewery. Or he could just have this split persona affliction and doesn't remember doing any of it. Did he get it from Peter, Nikki herself......or is it a virus?
And he did slip the picture of Kaito into Andos newspaper. He can't go all invisible you say? Maybe he can.....but just doesn't know it yet, or the writers don't want us to know it yet. If he can, he might have used Hiros gifts of bending space and time to harass his mother in the cell - maybe never able to bring himself to really kill her. I did read somewhere credible that Nathan and Peter were originally written as twins. It makes some sense that they both share the same capabilities......but it has taken Nathan longer to unlock them because he's had to be such a cold and ruthless congressman. I think the key to unlocking it was empathy, and Peter embraced his sensitive nature while Nathan ignored it. Until something tragic happened that sent him on a downward emotional spiral.....turning on all those powers that Peter had one ......by ....one.
So, Anu Naki.....i see your Peter-is-killer theory and raise you a Nathan-is- killer theory. It makes more sense to me that when mama Petrelli said she already lost one son, she didn't want to lose another in reply to Nathan asking her why she confessed that she was really wanting to protect Nathan - knowing where he's coming from. whew....
His ugly ass mutilated reflection is to Nathan that Jessica was to Nikki. I also wonder if he was waiting for his hand to regenerate.....hmmm???

Awesome episode. I don't have much time, but I'll just say that the cokroach was also seen at the end of last season in the last (or one of the last) scenes.

I think West is too good to be true. He seems to do the most perfect things at the perfect time to make Clair trust him. He has to be planted there by the Company, thats why Noah's so concerned about her seeing boys. He knows who has powers and he was the one that took West when he was young.
I wonder about Nathan and the whole burnt him. I think it's just psychological damage, and emotional trauma. He obviously too Peters death really badly, probably blames himself since he was such a jerk before. It's a reflection of what he thinks he really looks like, a monster?
