In the lab, Peter knocks over the largest bowl of jello left, which spills all over the floor and heals Suresh's face. Jethro gets his blue fire hands going and Peter's like uh we're all gonna die. Jethro says he doesn't give two shits about Peter or his brother so buhbye! Nathan comes up behind him and knocks him out with a lead pipe. Then he hits Peter. Peter gets up and Nathan slams him in the knees and tells him he broke his heart. Oh wah. Jethro wakes up and starts the room on fire. Smooth move. Now you're in the middle of a fire, dumbass. Peter finds one last injection of formula (HANDY!) on the floor and injects himself. He grabs Nathan and they fly off.
And now for a very dramatic scene involving Sylar, Mama P and Mama P's waddles. The lighting people hate this woman.
She tries to smooth talk Sy by telling him that by killing Papa P he saved the world and she always knew he would, but he's not having it. He knows she's not his mom and that she's been lying to him this whole time. He wants to know why. She says she wanted to love him like a son but he senses her lie and starts cutting her head open. She caves and admits that she wanted to use him as a thug because he was born evil and that's what he's good for. He gets all whiney and wah-y about it and since she's in harms way she resists the urge to slap him and tell him not to be such a little girl. He almost kills her, but she says that she knows who his real parents are and he'll never find out where the caterpillars on his face came from if he kills her. He loses it and starts to strangle her anyway but Claire comes up behind him and shoves a paper clip into his soft spot. And he's down! Chop of his head and crush it, you morons!
Look, ma! A shark's about to eat my eyebrow!
I'm glad I got from the jail cell to GlamourShots back here in time.
SYLAR'S DEAD? Somehow, I don't buy that. He'll be back. Right? RIGHT? I was just starting to like him again. Well, except for the whining. Dammit I'm so conflicted! Claire runs back to the cell to save her mom, but she's still freaking out so she has to leave her to burn. Dang. This episode is a bloodbath. As Claire and HRG run off, Meredith erupts and the building goes up in flames. Somewhere in the desert, Peter and Nathan land and start fighting. Nathan wants to know why Peter saved him and Pete says that he may seem like a hypocrite for taking the formula, but he wanted to save his brother. Nathan says that he wouldn't have done the same thing. Ouch.
Suresh gives his last meaningless good and evil monologue of the season while we watch Pinehurst burn and an epilogue clip of Suresh, pretty again, wandering around on the freeway. Huh? How in the hell did he escape when he was covered in magic flammable jello in an exploding building? Tracy picks him up and gives him a ride to the facialist. THE END.
But before we go, we get the first scene of Volume Four. Nathan is in a stretch limo handing over a file of all the heroes. He tells the man he's talking to that they are dangerous and need to be rounded up before they can harm anyone. The 4400 plot still has some life in it! The man agrees to give the senator what he needs. Nathan says "Thank you, Mr. President!" Ooooooh! Uhoh. The President's black and somewhat homely. You know what that means.
You've got til episode four and you're dead. If you get fat on hiatus you'll only make it to two, so watch your points.

It must be ire that drives you!!! I never know how lame this show is until I read your recap, tho, even I could see the Saw going on, sans the gore!
"Look, ma! A shark's about to eat my eyebrow! "
Too funny!!! See that, dear Flip, without you I may have never noticed the catapillars of love on Sylar's brow!!!
Also, I happen to think Matt is def do-able, he's the most likely sex object in this show for me (and perhaps J-mo, tho I shouldn't speak for others) the fact that he seems sweet is a plus, but alas, he's straight, just like 'em all . . . sigh . .
Well, as for the show, I'm glad Peter got his power back, I hope Meredith pulls through, love me some Mama P and her waddles--it was fun to watch her be honest, but I wish they had run further with it. Sylar can't be dead, c'mon, he did the whole Star Trek movie with nary a peep of his contract with Hero's or conflict, or money talk, and he makes a killer Spock, no!?
Ain't buying the Nathan conversion, but then nothing stays the same here, and Tracy was a perfect, corrupted side kick, so why fire her . . . Never saw the 4400, but I believe, I believe . . .
If this is our last cap before the Holidays, may you have the bestest of them!!! HUGS AND KISSES!!!!

Clair's lip gloss was literally poppin' this whole episode. Which made 0 sense.
At least we got to see pretty Suresh once more before X-Mas. Thank you NBC/Universal.
