I exposed myself to mass amount of radioactivity after reading this article and the only powers I got out of it were the ability to talk to snails and the ability to blow up watermellons with my mind. Snails aren't very interesting you know. THEY LIVE VERY BORING LIVES! Then theres the watermellon thing that would only be useful if I were to be involved in a superhero showdown in the middle of a fruit shop, which let's face it, is unlikely. I feel like a character from X-men 3. You know the shit one, where they just crammed as many useless characters as they had leftover into it. And now I have cancer. Screw you Bucholz.

I had the exact same reaction to Mohinder shooting Bennett in the face - I really don't get where he's coming from anymore. The arc of his character has gotten so fuzzy recently he seems to be acting on a whim most of the time. I had the same reaction to Bennett's comments regarding Elle as Chris - Bennett seemd to be suggesting she had been given these powers somehow, although it was admittedly ambiguous. It was nice to see Elle humanized a little with her obvious concern over Bennett's allegations. Maybe she'll end up interesting after all. So far she's been irritatingly one dimensional. One thing that occurred to me was that if the Company was involved in the creation of super powers rather than just their supression (which has always struck me as an utterly unconvincing motivation) it gives them a much more interesting back story. I'm with Bel-Rand, they've taken a video game approach to death. Getting shot in the face actually only takes you down to zero hit points, but if you rest you'll recover. Better find some health packs, quick! Of course, if they were really killing Bennett off they would have done a carpet bomb ad campaign boasting that "Someone Dies." I'm actually kind of surprised they didn't do that anyway, since he was technically dead for several minutes. I will say that at this point the Haitian is hands down my favorite character. I can't wait until he gets his own subplot. Not a bad episode overall. I had the exact same reaction to Mohinder shooting Bennett in the face - I really don’t get where he’s coming from anymore.

And I think that Suresh basically has this doctor thing where he has to save anyone who is in trouble. He may well have shot Bob if Bob was about to execute Mr. Bennett, but as soon as he saw a cold-blooded killing about to take place, he felt that he had to intervene. And it just so happened that Mr. Bennett had the upper hand over Bob. I think that his motivations are purely circumstantial. Also: I think that they are going to Haitian Mr. Bennett and use him to track down Claire. Did anyone else notice that just two episodes ago, the writers finally acknowledged the word "Haitian" as a verb? Molly has two daddies.

Nice touch. I appreciate that Bennet had the same reaction to coming back to life as Claire did when she had the stick pulled out of her head. Nice touch.

He saw Bennet as having gone insane and being the danger while the company truly had the ability to help. Bob has played into Mohinder's hands. Every time Mohinder raises a red flag Bob says "ok, we'll do it your way. I'm glad we have you around to keep us on the right path."
