Heroes Preview: Season 3 Episode 10 (3.10) The Eclipse Part 1
The eclipse is here — and the Heroes’ powers are gone! The first of a major Heroes two-part event, part one of “The Eclipse” promises clashes aplenty: the world’s worst dad, Arthur versus granddaughter Claire (and probably HRG and Sandra, too); Matt, Hiro, and Ando versus Daphne’s past (and probably a couple of comic book geeks, too); and the Petrelli boys travel to Haiti in search of the Haitian (and probably a revolution or two). Well, where else would you find someone called The Haitian but in Haiti? But as the promos wonder: what would a world without Heroes be like? Here is your preview of Heroes Season 3, Episode 10, “The Eclipse Part One”.
Official Description:
A POWERFUL ECLIPSE CASTS A SHADOW OVER ALL OF THE HEROES THAT IMPACTS THEIR ABILITIES
After reuniting Sylar (Zachary Quinto) and Elle (guest star Kristen Bell), Arthur (guest star Robert Forster) orders them to find Claire (Hayden Panettiere) and bring her to him. Matt (Greg Grunberg), Hiro (Masi Oka) and Ando (James Kyson Lee) team up together and follow Daphne (guest star Brea Grant) to her hometown of Athens, Georgia to discover what she’s been hiding. Meanwhile, Nathan and Peter Petrelli (Adrian Pasdar and Milo Ventimiglia) travel together to Haiti in search of the the only man that can stop their father from destroying the world, the Haitian (Jimmy Jean-Louis).
Robert Forster guest stars.

am i 1st?
sylar is god
Yes, Bravo, your first.
You may worship Sylar, but for me Claude is God because he Reigns LOL
omg that looks sooooo good!!!
do you think that because everyone is losing their powers Peter and everyone whose powers got taken will get them back??
I don’t know what’s gonna happen, but here’s their chance to kill Papa Petrelli, that’s for sure.
it’s gonna be so cool!!!!
i wanna see what they’re gonna do without their powers
i hope claire lives
KILL CLAIRE!!!! she is annoying. kill hiro his part is on the same level as claire. love the show. sylar is the best character hands down. i thought the eclipse was going to be this episode.
You can’t kill Claire. She is simply to important to the story. So is Hiro. If you don’t remember, he’s the one that’s suppose to stop everything else. And of course this wasn’t the eclipse episode. Wouldn’t it make more sense for the eclipse episode to start on the episode named The Eclipse Pt. 1.
Completely agree, Hiro needs to go. He just plain sucks now. He’s so ridiculously annoying that I’m starting to cringe on every scene he’s in.
You can’t kill Clair, she is the show!!
Ok, so this next episode looks incredible! Critics have been saying lately that the life and death apsect of the show is almsot unexistant, but the threat of death for our beloved character will certainly be apart of this next episode. Without their powers, Claire, Sylar and Arthur are now vulnerable. Man, I can’t wait! I hate to say it, but I’m hoping for some death to come out of this next episode…
what if the eclipse only makes heroes lose their power DURING the eclipse. then once the sun is full unblocked again they have their powers again.
think about it, this could work, it would cause a kind of “we have one shot to take down author” mentality by the good guys. which explains the ‘bid for power’ in the preview synopsis. also if one of his henchmen become disillusioned…maybe say sylar makes a bid to the throne to take down author?
in the preview for eclipse part 1 we see claire shot. obviously the writers wont kill her off…she just needs to live till the end of the eclipse. thatll add lots of drama, nail biting, etc, while not killing off an ratings getting character…this may also trick author into thinking shes dead and that the catalyst is now out a reach…which may in turn stop the formula from destroying the world.
which would be why a repentant sylar would allow what looks like elle to shoot claire. he did just say he never meant to hurt her and never wanted to again. why would he stand around and let elle shoot her, unless it’s part of a plan…he does know ‘how things work’
plus if it is temporary like i think it is, then it fits the continuity with the eclipses we’ve seen in the past… we’ve never seen anyone try to access their powers DURING an eclipse. what if its always masked their abilities, just now its more important because we in the middle of a WAR.
Why would Sylar let Elle shoot Claire?
Because Sylar knows what Claire is. Sylar knows that he can avoid the future Arthur wants to create by killing the only thing that can make it possible. People think this is the moment to get Arthur. I think Arthur is thinking this is the moment to get Claire. While everybody protecting her is powerless.
Im thinking the same they lose their powers for a temporary time then after whatever happens in Eclipse one or two they get thwm back or something like that and WHY the heck would any1 want hiro DEAD!! because of him or future him the all saved the world twice and technally hiro saved it the first time by Stabbing Sylar and nathan saved it by Flying peter out so he wont Die… Sometimes sure i dont like claire and sometimes Hiro but that dont mean they shouold DIE SERIOUSLY…….Go to Projectfree-tv.com Spread the revo
I dont think all of them should lose therye ability….i dont think the eclipse is anything to do with it taking it away and also i thought they said Claire was the missing part? Also, nearly all the Heroes have been seen to use their ability before the original eclipse so this should back my theory. Another point is that Adam hasnt lost his ability from it.
Maybe it only triggers abilities? It kind of fits the scientific side of Heroes with something like that, but scientifically, if you do something twice it dosent change and go back to normal the second time.
OMG ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
i cant waitt anymore
this week is full of exams >.<
Message to Arron on november 18th You are a nob head Hiro is one of the best Characters and claire has one of the best super powers Jackassssssssssssssss
it’s gonna be a long week. waiting for next Monday!! Not often you say that….
here is another spoiler:

@Tyrone.
thats the only reason i can see for sylar letting that happen… or else he flips back to the bad side and thats just a weak explanation.
bottom line the next 3 episodes are going to be crazy…
the heroes have to get their powers back by the end of the eclipse because the episode after that is titled war… its a bit hard to have some all out episode where interviews have said ‘buildings get blown up’ its ‘good versus evil’ and ’several heroes will die’ without some amazing power’d up fights…
so im definitly thinking the eclipse is a temporary thing….
though one thing…adam was over 400 years old…i’m sure he’s seen a buttload of eclipses…how come he never died from old age?
They’ve said it already, the first eclipse activated their powers, it didn’t take them away.
guys seriously HRG is now the best charicter he now is the strongest 1
I can
t wait for next week. Claire is one of my favorite characters so it is nice to see her the center of some drama. Overall, it is going to be an amazing episode. I think these next couple of episodes are going to be the most explosive so far in this season. Can’t wait!!!
Okay, the eclipse is going to be temporary, unless they’re all going to be injected with the formula after its over. Claire wont die, she cant die, Sylar said so. I think that she’ll be clinically dead for a few minutes but will come back alive after the eclipse is over, her blood brought HRG back from the dead so i presume it’ll bring her back too. And how come everything has to be in claires blood? like season 2, the cure to the shanti virus was by mixing mohinder and claires blood and now the catalyst. It would’ve been cooler if it was inside Hiro, that way he would be protecting the formula without knowing it.
Sylar and Elle, i think that Arthur helped put it together in order to have blackmail material, just in case Sylar tries to take over or leave. Arthur needs him, he’s too much of a threat to have wandering around doing his own thing, and if he went back to Angela’s team she’d have the benefit of two people that can mimic powers.
In any case Arthur is going to die by the next chapter and Sylar is going to take over, and i think that Arthur’s original ability is the same one that Peter and Sylar have and he got his power stealing ability from someone else.
Also how is it that the government have no idea about these people? I mean if a professor in India can find how come the government cant. It makes no sense.
Personally i think that this will be the theme in ‘Fugitives’ and all the characters will have to band together to escape the clutches of the government, or some secret organisation that deals with people with abilities and has done for centuries, hence “The Hunter”.
Anyway, just some thoughts and theories.
Yeah i thought it was Hiro too because when Angela said he was the key to everything in like the first or second episode, and then they said the key was in someones blood so i immediately thought it was him and Angela just wasnt telling him everything (because she’s always soooo truthful haha)
looks like papa petrelli still got a soft spot for angela.
i swear this petrelli family is one twisted family.
by the way i aint gonna get tired of saying this:
SYLAR IS THE BEST!
I’m really enjoying Sylar’s story, they took his character to a whole new level and are continuously building on it. Zachary Quinto is a very talented actor. This season just keeps getting better. Sure they had some bumps at first, but like any good thing, they endured and will soon be back on top.
ok somebody will definatly get killed in this next episode, but as all episodes somehow they will be able to come back. It won’t be claire because she is just too important, and there’s just no way possible, i mean she’s the catalyst!!!! Hiro might die, just cause he thinks he’s 10 and he doesn’t remember how to do anything. Papa Petrelli can’t die because then the whole thing about good vs. evil won’t be able to do anything anymore. Personally i think Nikki or whatever her name is now is going to die because her role in the bad guy area of the thing isn’t that big and she’s not in that pic that hiro saw.
3 characters they will never take off the show; Hiro, Claire, and Peter. Too many fans…
the show is called HEROES, not ORDINARY HUMANS…so if they want to keep the show going for longer that say next week, they better have some way of returning the powers to the heroes.
You’re saying firefighters and policemen aren’t heroes?
I think that Arthur will soon die and like the other episodes indicate, claire will some how take over Pineherst. I think that Peter will regain his powers after the eclipse.
What is everyone elses take on this.
