Be still, my beating heart.
Oh volume 1 Peter, how I've missed you! It's been so long since his powers ran away with him like that. The only thing that would have been more awesome was if he fainted at some point. And he apparently plays piano even without the help of Emma's sparkly power!
And Emma turned out to be a medical school dropout? Brilliant! Is she perfect for Peter, or what? Seeing as how Peter doesn't have a healing power anymore but still has the self-preservation skills of a depressed lemming, it'll be useful for him to have an almost-doctor on hand along with his paramedic (EMT?) partner. (Psst! Show? More Hesam please. These one-line appearances just aren't cutting it for me.)
Gretchen + baby powder = win! Too bad she caved under the pressure of Claire's everyday life and bailed. I can't really blame her though. She's right about not being able to heal from the injuries Becky is likely to inflict on her. I have a feeling she'll be back, but in the meantime maybe she can give self-preservation lessons to Peter.
Claire? Do not step between your father's gun and the homicidal maniacs. Just sayin'. Have the last 3 seasons taught you nothing?
Now that we know The Haitian's name, is it wrong that I still can't stop calling him "The Haitian?"
Has anybody else noticed that Samuel's accent has a tendency to wander until he says "Samuel," and then it's Irish from then on? Apparently "Samuel" is the magic spell-casting word for turning accents on.
I've been really hating the whole Matt vs. Imaginary!Sylar for control of Matt's brain story arc, but tonight managed to hit a high and several lows at the same time. Killing Hank? Not cool, because that really was Matt's body doing it. It'll be Matt's fingerprints on the tire iron, just like it's Matt's name on the no-fly list. Kudos to Matt for having the balls to die rather than let his inner Sylar continue to threaten innocent people, but again it's Matt's body doing all of this. What the hell is Janice supposed to think when she finds out? And if Matt survives, how is he ever going to be employable again? Heck, I'm stunned anyone would hire him after his sudden unauthorized African furlough in volume 3. Then again, I suppose he could just sue the police department for shooting him while he was unarmed, and then he shouldn't ever need another job.
Boy, those carny folks are really on the ball, aren't they? It seriously took them all day to notice that Sylar was gone? And it really took all day for Nathan-shaped Sylar to fly back to New York? Did he go the long way around?
And dammit, once again the cockles of my heart wanted to warm at seeing Nathan run to Peter for help and give him a genuine hug that didn't smack of the Corleone kiss of death, but it can't BECAUSE NATHAN IS DEAD AND THIS IS ONLY NATHAN-SHAPED SYLAR. I want Nathan back! Heck, I want all the Petrellis back. Give me my Petrellis! ...Well, except Arthur. You can keep him.

That was my reaction, when she said it I was like, "THATS HIS NAME! YAY!" but he's the Haitian to me!
I don't know how I feel about the Matt thing at the end, I wasn't liking the Matt VS Sylar either and yeah, I like Matt's character a lot and will be sad if he's actually dead.

I've decided that he went to burnt toast dinner in Midland, TX, first. Apparently is on the way to NY...
