Episode 3x01: "The Second Coming"

September 22nd 2008

--

So I thought as we aren't decided whether its Season 2 or Season 3 that Volume 3 is gonna retun with why not open a new thread and what better then some gossip from the Jules Verne 2007 Festival where they showed a preview of Villains and heres what went down...

SYLAR, and lots of him. It's hard to describe exactly what we were shown--most of it must have been a dream sequence or future-jump scenario because everyone was dead. The bodies of the main cast were littered around what looked like a trashed Company prison. I can only remember Claire (dressed as a cheerleader) and Matt's bodies clearly, but it was pretty grotesque (yay! Not a lot of that this season).

Apparently there will be the equivalent of "Seven Twelve Sylars running around." It sounds like seven killers with abilities, locked up by The Company, have escaped. The only one prominently featured was a lithe black man who seemed to have preternatural speed--and used that to rip a cop's heart out of his chest (or did something with it that killed the guy because he was very much dead afterwards). If I remember correctly all the other killers were just shadows in the asylum's hallway. IMO it looks like Sylar may be the one to break these people out, since he is seen killing at least three people for their abilities... but perhaps he does so unintentionally, who knows. The "Seven Twelve Sylars" line is directly from the trailer and I don't think he'd invite that kind of competition. He probably breaks into the Company building wanting revenge and discovers they have a bunch of special people locked up... hey, buffet!

It appears Sylar is caught by the Company again (he was tied down with a tube going into his nose). He's seen verbally toying with Elle while he's laying on a table as well as when he's upright and dressed normally, though the context was all over the place so who knows which comes first. They have a confrontation. The way it was edited implied--to me, at least--that he kills her, but that could have been within the context of the dream sequence/time-jump. Probably so.

The BEST part was a a shot of Angela Petrelli in the asylum... and then hands coming up around her shoulders. The person behind her steps forward, and it's Sylar. Some of the other peeps in my party were taking that as confirmation that she's Teh Ev0l, but I figure that could just as well be her last minutes alive. There was an awful lot of her in the trailer too, actually, but she didn't look pleased by what was going on.

To see a bit of that for yourself heres a link.

OMG WTF Sylar and Angela Petrelli!!!

wow, it was hard to make anything out.

but how do they have anything even made? I thought the WGA strike had postponed their filming?

No they started filming more episodes before the strike they didn't have a full episode to show so they just took clips from part completed episodes it would seem plus why start Volume 3 when its gonna interrupted.

The link is in french. :s

The text is the video isn't I don't think...

Another rundown from the episode...

First off: This was thrown together very quickly by Tim and Jeph and snuck out of the studio--supposedly. We were told no video tape or pictures but they say we couldn't talk about it. So, hoping I won't get killed for this..

Heroes Clips: THEY WERE AWWWESOMMMMME! Big Big Action!

A bunch of clips--I believe--from the next episode (or next couple). We were shown the clips only once and they were fast and furious.

The Wrath of Sylar"Villians" Heroes vol 3

It doesn't appear to be a Legion of Doom (at the moment) so much as Sylar unleashing HELL! He frees all other Sylar-like lunatics upon the world. A beaten up HRG says, "Its like having twelve SYLARS lose in the world!" (For my fellow comics geeks, its like Joker opening up all the dungeons of Arkham Asylum and saying "Go play!")

The halls of the Company looks ravaged and ripped apart (not blown up). The suggestion is utter chaos!

Lookout Mama Petrelli! (who looks like she's taken the reigns there) and Elle appear to be the main targets (both could survive) and, Sylar seemed to be taking particularly bloody enjoyment in punishing Elle.

Matt is also at the Company and I don't know if he is killed or injured, but he doesn't look at all well.

I think we saw the "Knox" character punch his arm through a Police Car and into a cop's face and through his chest.

I don't remeember seeing Adam or Maya or any of the other characters not all ready mentioned.

There are some truly "Hellraiser" like moments in the trailer I saw.

I hope others who were there last night will post to fill in what I can't remember. I'll PM them later.

By reading some of the post in the livejournal post I remembered some things.

I don't know if any of it is a dream sequence.

Sylar was at one point strapped down on a table.

But later Elle was later the one flat on her back, clearly being tortured by Sylar:

dialogue:

Sylar:...of course, I'm a psychopathic killer.

Elle: It takes one to know one.

The last shot is Sylar coming up behind Angela Petrelli

I don't remember seeing bodies of the main cast all over the place as another poster posted.

I do remember a silohuettes of either Heroes (one looked like Claire, one like Niki) or Villians

Word Ballon has this great interview with Jeff Loeb and Jesse Alexander. It's funny and informative and not really spoilers, but great insite and I agree (So far) in all they have said.

Here is what Jesse said about Angela's power:

"Angela?s power has been established in the show and it?s there?s for hardcore people if they were to look at the show and look at peter and think about him and what he can do and they could probably figure out what Angela?s power might be."

Why would we have to guess when they should have shown it already. I doubt her power is the same as Peter's.

    • I just looked on my computer and there are settings and log files for utilities I have never even turned on!
    • O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 by Razvan Serea O&O ShutUp10 offers a simple yet effective way to take control of your Windows privacy. It provides access to almost 50 privacy-related tweaks, most of them hidden or not easily accessible to the average computer users. Using a very simple interface, you decide how Windows 10/11 should respect your privacy by deciding which unwanted functions should be deactivated. Using ShutUp10 you can easily disable Windows Defender, turn off telemetry, disable peer-to-peer updates, turn off Wi-Fi Sense, disable automatic Windows updates, turn off and reset Cortana and more. ShutUp10 allows you to create a System Restore point before you apply any changes, so that you can revert your system at any time if you run into problems. O&O ShutUp10 is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software, like so many other programs do these days! O&O ShutUp10 Free and Premium The latest version brings O&O ShutUp10 Premium, expanding the app’s long-standing privacy controls with automatic enforcement of user-defined settings. Instead of manually rechecking options after every Windows update, users can set their preferred privacy configuration once—or apply recommended settings in a single click—and the tool continuously monitors them in the background. If Windows 10 or 11 re-enables disabled features or introduces new data collection paths, Premium restores the chosen settings automatically without user intervention. The free version remains available and fully functional for manual adjustments, offering the same core privacy controls for Windows. However, the Premium tier is aimed at users who want long-term, hands-off protection, adding automatic reapplication after updates, ongoing monitoring, and optional notifications to ensure privacy settings remain consistent over time. O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 changelog: Added “Show Differences” button in the overview panel “Don’t show again” option for the restore point prompt Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut for search/filter functionality Detection and linking of system-wide and user-specific setting associations Automatic search while typing PREM: Option to preserve notification counters and timestamps across application restarts PREM: Reset blocked settings button in the Settings dialog PREM: Informational message when no settings are blocked PREM: Update check can also be triggered from the menu PREM: Notification deduplication and activity log summary feature Improved L005 “Disable Windows Location Service”: Version-specific split (up to Windows 11 23H2) and new variant for Windows 11 24H2+ L001 (Disable Location): Added Night Light warning to the description in all languages Search now detects setting IDs even when ID display is disabled and offers to enable it Detection and removal of Copilot/AI desktop apps in RecallTerminator Optimized High DPI support PREM: Reset button is now only enabled when blocked items exist – setting IDs are shown in the confirmation dialog PREM: Updated tray icons with higher-resolution versions PREM: Activity Log timestamps now use localized date and time formats PREM: Tray icon status now uses OK/Warning indicators and localized tooltips PREM: Recall folder detection switched to service-based detection PREM: Copilot uninstallation now provides UI feedback and improved verification Fixed Description text was not displayed correctly for the last item and disappeared when clicking the scrollbar Crash when clicking a search result heading or the […] button PREM: Installation path is now correctly preserved during upgrades PREM: Tray icon was not reliably removed when exiting the application PREM: Main window was not displayed correctly in single-instance mode PREM: Incorrect display of the & symbol in tray icon tooltips on Windows 10 PREM: Fixed notification flooding after sleep/standby PREM: Dashboard was not refreshed after applying recommended settings during onboarding PREM: Progress bar was not reset after deleting Recall folders PREM: Fixed service startup failures PREM: Fixed incorrect drift detection when Automatic Protection was disabled PREM: Notifications now correctly count all deviating settings when protection is enabled PREM: Registration Wizard was shown after sleep/standby despite a valid license Download: O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 | 76.4 MB (Freeware) Download: O&O ShutUp10 32-bit | ARM64 View: O&O ShutUp10 Home Page | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Fascinating...W h i t e P o w e r is now also asterisks out.  
    • In the past few days I have noticed two odd moderation activities. First, when I posted the term 'White Nationist Christian' it was asterisk's out. When I changed it to **** it was allowed! Second, in the Politics is a ###business thread I was allowed to post that the GOP is a party of p e d ophiles but I was censored  when I posted the GOP are a party of p e d ophile protectors. Wtf Neowin. Please explain.
