I agree with pretty much everything you said. I actually said, out loud, 'do they actually have time for a whole do jo lesson when the world is about go to boom?' And I didn't get the part about Hiro having previously trained with a sword either. Though it would make sense given that most Asian children (I forgot where he's from) train in martial arts from a young age.
Hiro's reaction to Nathan - "You villain" - was cute and all but is he still really that naive? Maybe Ando really does need to die for Hiro to finally grow up.
If Ando ends up being the one to stop Sylar, I will be very unhappy!
Ummm, I think I might throw something if that happens. And the show will have completely lost me because they've been building Peter v. Sylar for nearly the entire season and if they suddenly back away from that...I'm gone. It's one thing to pull a "shocking twist" it's another to completely blow a season's worth of plot/build-up out of the water for that twist.
I thought it was very cool that Lindermann healed Nathan's wife--his power is an incredible one. But he's been killed now? That's a little hard to process.
Yes it was very nice of Lindermann to heal Nathan's wife but COME ON! She's suddenly healed after Lindermann told her he was giving her a gift and held her hand and she doesn't ask questions?! She doesn't think it's strange? She just takes Nathan's word that it's a miracle?! As far as we know she's completely in the dark about the Petrelli family abilities (especially Nathan's) so wouldn't this be a little, oh I don't know, shocking and suspicious for her? Just asking.
And I don't really buy Linderman really being dead either. If Claire can heal herself hours after she's died and was cut open; if Peter can come back from a big shard of glass to his brain then it's quite probably that Linderman could heal as well. Of course his brain got ripped out (and was that really necessary?) but still, Claire was practically burned alive so...guess that'll be the first BIG REVEAL of next week.
Is it bad that I'm suddenly so cynical? Next week has a lot riding on it.
