He tells Parkman that the reason he even knew he was at Shady Pines was because Daphne told him. Her excuse was that she was afraid. Afraid of Papa showing up and killing him? Nice work, dumdum. She's making about as much sense as Winona Ryder probably did when she was on that plane trying to steal gum out of sleeping passengers' purses this week. Daphne says she knows now that Matt's bleeding and that she was wrong and begs for another chance. Papa tries to convince Matt to tell Daph to suck it, but she drops the "I love you bomb" and Parkman buys it. As they kiss, Mama tells Papa that they used to be like that. We know. We saw it last week. Please don't ever be like that again.
Mama tells Papa that he still loves her and he will let her go. She seems to be using some kind of power on him and repeats sternly to let her go. So Mama has the power of mind control now. Why not? Her handcuffs break and she wakes up in the hospital room. Papa goes back to his body to finish watching Elle and Sylar slobber all over each other.
As Daphne and Matt leave the hospital, in walk Peter and Claire. Matt attacks Peter and shakes his jowels at him, but then he remembers that the last time he did that he was shipped off to Africa to be force fed mystical donkey poo and lets it drop. Back at the lab, Joy Behar is in such pain that she begs Suresh to kill her. Unlike Sylar, who would try to make out with her, Suresh takes pity and administers a lethal injection.
Now just get Hasselbeck, Sheri, Whoopie and Barbara out of there and I can watch The View again.
Ando tells Hiro that the comic book is the plan for the future, but Hiro thinks it's a trick. Even when Ando shows him pages of conversations they've had.
You're hot.
You are.
Hiro starts to believe and wants to find out what happens. Ando flips to the last page, which has a pic of the eclipse on it with the caption "IT'S COMING". The credits? Nope, sorry. Another scene with Mama P. She tells Nathan, Peter, Claire, Parkman and Daphne that she had the other half of the formula hidden but it was stolen. Papa has both pieces, but there is a third piece. A catalyst! Claire tells them about Sylar looking at her brain and telling her he's special. Two weeks ago, before he turned into Julio Iglesias. Everyone in the room has enough manners to not sigh "YOU AGAIN? WHY GOD? WHY?"
Suresh starts blabbering his closing monologue.
"It begins with light,
And it ends with light,
But in the end, there's darkness."
And then I turned off my TV. It just seemed fitting.

I just loved the Elle and Sylar scenes- HOT ! (Waay better than the Daphne and Matt romance- yawn.) That is what saved this episode for me.
I am so over Hiro and Ando.

You have my deepest sympathy for having to try nd recap such a shitty episode. These writers think we're morons. Oh that's right, we just don't know how to truly watch this show in a superior way......
It's a good thing your recaps are way better than this show. You at least see it for the crap it is!

flip, this was so Fozzie of a recap!!!! Loved it!!!! Better than the epi by far. I'm so glad I just get toasted and let it all slide by without too much thought, tho, even I cannot bring myself to bear the Hiro story lines . . . and I'm glad Tracy's a biotch, she looks good with that evil zeal on her face!!!! XOXOXOX
