My comment was more aimed toward the grammatical incorrectness of the title.

Lol, silly Ikin. "I Am Become Death, The Destoyer Of Worlds". You can't always translate things into grammatical English.

Referring to Mohinder's "solving" of the Heroes' powers -- i.e. power in a syringe -- in this case, I believe.

Ikin has never read the Baghavad Gita...but he should at some point. The rest of you should, too. I started to back in college but never finished it. *sigh*

Read a few excerpts, but I've never gotten ahold the full text.

Watching the episode right now. Sylar still has me laughing hysterically in the commercials. The music really did it. So freaking ridiculous. And he even has a "Hail To The Chef" apron.

I wish they had explained the scar on Peter's face but I'm sure they'll get to that.
I don't get if Nathan was meant to be good or bad.

I'm pretty sure the idea was that Nathan felt he was doing good, regardless of the true morality of what he was doing. But that wasn't really the point. The point was that he was supposed to read Nathan's mind, and then see way more than he used to, thanks to "Gabriel". And then he wanted to dig even deeper, and for that he needed a closer look. I must say, that was a very easy way to make Peter darker. And very clever of them; I always just imagined that Sylar had mental instability and then the massive power he was given just made things worse.
