Is it just me, or is the writing on this show getting sloppier every year? It's fun watching Hiro and Ando, as always. And Daphne is kind of interesting. But the rest... *shrug* Decent, at best.
And where's Molly in all this? Mohinder (must come up with some derogatory nickname for him... but for now I'll settle for keeping "shutting up Mohinder Suresh" on my interests list, where it's been since late Season One) is off working and being creepy and, as one friend put it, ripping off Beast. Parkman is off wooing Daphne (and, even with the fact that he's a telepath, the whole "love at first sight" thing seems to be rushed and perfunctory). So that leaves Molly... what? In her room, where she stays until someone needs her to move the plot along? Who's taking care of her? The turtle? (And how'd he get that through customs, anyway? Kidnap a wild animal from another continent, claim it as a pet, and then take it home without even a quarantine period? How many officials did he mindwipe to make that happen?) At this point, I'm guessing that the only person who knows where Molly is would be the one whose power is the ability to locate anyone just by... oh, wait. That's Molly.
What's the deal with Sylar? "We're going to make him a good guy. It'll be a fun and interesting twist! ... Oh, crap. It's not working. They're not buying it. He's not fun and creepy anymore. And the sudden and rather contrived revelation of his parenthood isn't floating, either. And neither is the sudden and contrived thing with Elle. Quick! Undo it all!"
At least it did result in some fun. "Cake!" And that elevator scene.
But this whole "catalyst" thing makes no sense. And now with "the light"? That can be willingly transferred from one person to another? What the heck is that? And where did the light go? Does Sylar have it now?
Where is all this going? What are they doing?
"Don't worry. We know what we're doing. We have a plan. It'll all make sense in the end. And it'll be really mind-blowingly awesome!"
Sylar sense tingling! You're lying!*
*I find myself tempted to make an icon of that. But I'm not sure it'd come out well. And I know I'd never use it. I also have a feeling it's a momentary thing. He got what he needed out of that power, and I don't expect he'll be using it too much anymore.
