Heroes Season 3 Review

Episode 303: One of Us, One of Them

Ana Callison
For Heroes Season 3, there is much excitement to see. There were a couple of very interesting surprises for Episode 303. I must say I was completely shocked to see the creation of the Dynamic duo. They were none less than Mr. Bennett "HRG" and Sylar as partners. This combo for sure will be a sparkling one. I bet they will be a lot of friction between these two, which will leave room for the writers for some subtle comedy. I love the scene when Sylar is talking to a policeman and how he seems so eager and confident to act out his new role in the company. Talking about overconfident; it was unexpected and hilarious when he asked the policeman for coffee, and then he demanded decaf. Or when he said to Mr. Bennett, that he only asked him to stay put to make sure he didn't. I must say I even started liking this overconfident, brought to the good side Sylar.

But we got to be aware, not everything is what is seems. Mr. Bennett seem to do an effort to work it out with Sylar, but in reality, he can't wait a moment to stab Sylar in his Aquilles heel and go back to his old trusty buddy the Haitian. Gosh! I wonder all the secrets he must know that put him in such demanding position that is him that should capture these very super powered criminals, and that he is so certain he can do the same with Sylar. Hmmm, well, Sylar had being captured before. But now he has more power and he is also under the mothering wing of Angela Petrelli, and her always hidden agenda.

Then we have Ethan Petrelli and his tribulations into trying to do the right thing. Unfortunately, his brother from the future cannot give him advice, for fear of changing the future once again. But then is Linderman appearing and talking to him, but not visible to nobody else. I may say there is a chance that he is trying to steer Ethan into the future he desires. He did it once, why not do it again. He is very charismatic person, and even thought Ethan may think he is the one calling the shots, that could be so far from the truth. But I cannot avoid keep wondering what the reason of his ghost like appearances is? Does he have another power besides healing?

And don't forget about Claire Bennett, always hard headed; now trying to prove she can also help out somehow. What will happen to her, she does not even know how to fight. On the other hand, she does have the weapon of knowledge, which gives her an advantage. I hope Claire get to those files and start devouring all the info so she knows how to attack these Villains, right into their weak point. Girl, make daddy proud!

Oh! And Mohinder... what the heck got into him? Yes I get it, he got powers, but somehow some kind of aphrodisiac got infiltrated in that injection. And Maya of course make a feast of that opportunity. Must admit I don't like her much, but I think she still can contribute something to the plot. Maya haters, let's give her a chance who knows her blood could be the key to something. Hmmm, coming to think about it, Mohinder blood was the key to something as well. Maybe their blood combined can do something really good or really bad. Who knows? In this Villain / Heroes Season you can never be certain. Let's wait and see what the writers have come up with. I hope they soon answer what happened to Mohinder and what went wrong with the power giving formula?

Another thing that I wonder is what Matt will see on his spirit walk. Will he see his personal future, or he will be able to see a more generic future? And the other question that arises is if that girl painted on Matt future is the speedy girl, because it sure looks a lot like her.

At the end of the episode they show Tracy visiting Dr. Zimmerman. Did you notice he confused Tracy with somebody else called Barbara, and then he added ah the "Beverly Hills one" which confirm there are more like her. But, how many of them? Are they clones or identical sisters? How they became to be? Many speculations are out there. I will have to go with those that think these girls were product of scientists playing around experimenting with powers trying to understand them. If she also goes to Mohinder they could also make something of this as well. But first let's wait for next episode and see what Dr. Zimmerman has to say.
