Heroes 4.09 Shadowboxing Promo Video
HRG and Claire vs. Samuel and that disappearing girl; Matt vs. Sylar; Peter vs. … his own powers? That’s all in next week’s new Heroes episode, 4.09, “Shadowboxing”.
CLAIRE LEARNS THE TRUTH BEHIND THE ATTACKS AND SYLAR TAKES MATTERS INTO HIS OWN HANDS.
Claire (Hayden Panettiere) is determined to get to the bottom of the Sorority Rush attacks on her own, until H.R.G. (Jack Coleman) intervenes only to realize he may be the source of her troubles. Meanwhile, Peter’s (Milo Ventimiglia) new ability is a perfect fit for his job and gives him the opportunity to help Emma (guest star Deanne Bray) accept her new life. Elsewhere, Sylar’s (Zachary Quinto) battle at gaining full control over Matt’s (Greg Grunberg) body escalates — with potentially dangerous implications at stake.
Kat Purgal, Carlease Burke, Danica Stewart, Candice Patton, Sally Champlin and Assaf Cohen guest star.
wow.. i can't wait til next week.
I love this show.
this show's getting exciting and it's thrilling me much!
wowoo
Interesting. I thought Becky was just working for Samuel, to push Claire to the Carnival but pehaps she has her own reasons for going after Claire (and HRG as well) beyond the fact that Claire exposed her secret.
last nights episode was great but the one problem i have is was claire grounded on the day of the homecoming. yeah she was but thats cool all the other stuff i guess was accurate. 9/10 i rate the episode
I think she got grounded the night of homecoming after the events we saw here..could be wrong. The one thing I caught was Noah saying they have no idea what Sylar looks like….but didn't the scene with Elle and Sylar's original meeting take place before that?? Either way great episode and nothing a mind wipe can't fix lol.
I liked the last episode. It explained why we haven't seen Dr. Suresh in a while, and proved a lot of people wrong about the whole past altering stuff. But the next episode seems interesting too. I really don't see how Parkman is going to live with Sylar in his brain, his life is going to become hell. I don't really care about Claire, but I am curious to see why those circus people are interested in Noah. I mean, he doesn't have any ability, as far as I know. And they really need to wrap up the whole Peter/deaf lady relationship, it's becoming somewhat boring.
indeed… and that wasn't Isac!!!! lol… btw, it's becoming interesting… and most important it seems that Peter might get his fathers abilities… i mean using all the powers he absorbs, wich will make him sexier… also Sylar (the real one not Parkman's) what will happen if he really takes his memory back, he will kill the whole circus people and really become powerfull… will Hiro take Charlie back? i don't really think that he will get Charlie, i think he will get killed or saved by some of the circus people or Peter instead… wich btw, Peter can cure the deaf lady (wich her power is logically applied to Bethoven)… Suresh is dead… interesting turn to see what will Hiro do, but what i think is that since they might cancel the show, they are trying to make an ending asap… and they dont have a clue about how to end it….
Cheers and lets hope Heroes gets a season 5
Yea i did catch that too… but lets tryn come to the conclusion that mayb he only knew Sylar as Gabriel Gray & only thot that Sylar was the name of someone else with the same ability.. at least that makes me feel better to assume that lol..
totally agree.. wat are they trying to do with those 2?? Hmmm I wonder
This was a great episode.. Love how they gave HRG another dimension.. It was a lot of Hiro but hell we hadn't seen him at all last wk so i cud live with it & besides he wasn't being a dumb-ass with wat he was trying to do.. next weeks episodes is going to get (REAL) for Matty Parkman, & im glad their showing wats going on with Mohinder & i think the invisible chick is tryn to get to Claire thru her pops (or not) lol.. We'll see.. LET'S GO HEROES season 5- we have to have one.. keep up the great work on season 4 for now tho!!!
Cool episode that one! Now Charlie has joined Catlyn as yet another girlfriend stuck in a certain future lol. Was finally glad to see Mohinder. Guess he'll appear in the next-to-next episode. But hell parkman is in serious trouble with slyar takin over his body. He's made him a murderer!
fforget the rest, peters getting some sort of new ability!!
hiro sorted his powered out now(gained control nearly) and peters dad stole his power.
so, peter should be getting his powers back too, hes been healed by the healer too which hiro hasent.
That is a good point….he did only know him as gabrielle or Mr. Gray as he called him. What really got me about it is that he walked right past him in the diner and didn't catch it. Not only that but Hiro and Charlie were there and it's like Bennet had no idea he was surrounded by supers lol. It really is a story line flaw that can be easily fixed or explained but really I just think it's funny because Noah knows everything all the time….except in that scene lol.
yeah that so right like hiro has now been gettin full control so peter must as well though i hope that there is another season 5 cause this one has gotten good
i think that the noah might not know what sylar look's like because sylar had killed molly's dad right? and i dont remember anyone on the show saying what power he had, so maybe noah thought that it was illusion of shapeshifting. so he thought that sylar would look like anyone, just a theory. i do see how its a flaw, but i dont care. HEROES ROX!!! lol
I agree! I didn't really like how they ended up turning the burnt toast diner into somewhere where EVERYBODY important happened to be at the exact same time–heck, I was halfway expecting Peter to be there for NO APPARENT REASON (okay, maybe quarter way, if you take half of the “halfway” and turn it into sarcastic joking…if that makes ANY sense at all…). But like you said, it's a forgiveable flaw, not that big a deal. Just about as awkward as HRG's sexy partner flirtingly refer to the haitian's powers as “Haitianing”…kinda brought back memories of Hatian pills which I'd rather forget…
But then again, even that wasn't so bad as it came back in a cool way at the end of the episode.
In other words, the episode seemed to be lurking with minor flaws just beneath the surface, but overall, I'd say it's definitely one of the most solid parts of the season as a whole–and the thing is, until the twist ending (revealing Samuel's true motive with Hiro), the whole thing about Hiro rescuing Charlie one more time could have played out like something that could have been told in a Graphic Novel or other part of the expanded Heroes experience (whatever their calling it these days…I haven't kept up with that stuff since season 1, which is exactly the point I'm getting at)–where it would have been wasted and only the utmost dedicated fans would really get it, but the mass audience wouldn't; but no, they made an episode out of it and it was AWESOME!!
Totally…It was a great episode, I've watched it like 4 times now lol.
These are two different scenarios altogether though. I wish it was this way but when arthur took their powers he left them both empty….Hiro started getting his back because of baby matt parkman touching him and kind of reactivating him. Peter on the other hand his current ability is formula given but you could be right, and I hope you are.
