Heroes Volume 4 : Fugitives


Recommended Posts

Really did enjoy that episode, but the ending was well sad. Goodbye Daphne :(

Tracy scene was awesome, one of the best things I've seen on Heroes.

We all knew it that it was Micah

Yeah Micah is awesome but also subtle advertising for Sprint :p

Hiro and Ando receive a message from the mysterious REBEL to "Save Matt Parkman". But when they arrive at the address all they find is a baby. They soon discover that the baby has a power and is, unbeknownst to Matt, Matt Parkman's son. After saving Baby Matt from being abducted by agents Hiro and Ando suddenly become the sole protectors of the child. They set out on a cross-country mission to unite father and son but quickly learn that traveling with young children is never easy. And then there's the issue of diapers...

Quite liked that episode, lots of story progression. I nearly wrote the episode off when Daphne just all of a sudden left Matt but then it did the nice twist and it made more sense.

When Tracey froze them all the effects were brilliant. When she winked was that a hint that she isn't dead and has some kind of Alex Mack power and can liquefy herself.

So we got our first death tonight with Daphne and of course perhaps even our "fake-out" death with Tracy.

Well here is our weekly spoilers round-up enjoy!

1) From several previous reports we already know that Ali Larter will return. Yes many of you noticed Tracy's wink and of course her melting into the drain. So will we see her again.

2) According to one of our inside sources, there has been some chatter of how to introduce Barbara into the storyline, but we have NO confirmation yet on how or even when? So your guess is as good as mine.

3) Greg Grunberg has confirmed that there will be a death of a character in the finale and it is not him. Apparently this will be a "permanent" death with the character not returning.

4) Nathan and Claire will return and we will see them in hiding in Mexico (Click Here to View Set Pics)

5) Expect to see more of Peter, Angela and The Hunter

6) No official confirmation that Sylar will be The Hunter's "surprise" ally but it is fairly obvious from the new promo.

7) Kristin from E! Online is reporting that as a part of the The Hunter's storyline we will see "concentration camps" for the Heroes

I have read some good reviews so far now Fuller is writing again for the show, maybe people will return after they seemingly gave up :yes:

I'm not holding my breath. I'm now four episodes behind and lack any motivation to catch up.

Sounds interesting! Like the sound of 7

This certainly did feel like an oldschool heroes episode, way too much. It wasnt "character" centric like the previous ones (they werent bad but it made it feel awkward), claire wasnt there to annoy, hiro, ando, and baby parkman kicked ass, and the 'coldsnap' scene was good too. The wink was tacky though. Oh and micah was there! So they actually showed many of the heroes without getting the impression of having to many characters. That's how it worked in season 1, they would leave 2-3 characters out of the episode and focus on the others.

I agree. When Matt started flying, I was like: "What?! First painting and now flying?" But I felt it was a great way to send Daphne's character off the show.

Exactly the way I felt. I was getting ready to start screaming at how Matt was getting too powerful when it should be Peter doing that, but then, of course, they started hinting it was a mind trick. Surely enough, they played a mind trick on all of us.

I think this episode brings a lot of closure to what we have seen so far, making way for Brian Fuller to make things interesting. Here is to hoping the last five episodes close out volume 4 with a bang.

Episode 3x21 - Sprint Sneak Peek

Episode 3x20 Commentary Reveals Spoilers

Hey All,

Apparently during the Episode 3x20 Cold Snap Commentary with Bryan Fuller and Masi Oka, Bryan Fuller confirmed that Tracy will return, that in the next volume (Redemption) that she will take on more of a leadership role for the Heroes and finally Fuller confirmed that Daphne's death is indeed permanent.

Cold Snap was one of the best episodes we have seen in a long time. This is what we have needed for so long. I had a friend watching who said, " is this really what I've been missing? this is amazing!" Sadly I had to respond that this is what we have all been missing. Daphene's death was unexpected, and the revealing scene really threw everyone off. I don't think there was a single person who when they saw Matt fly didn't think something was off but still didn't realize that instant it was all in her head. Tracy's snap was just amazing. The whole look and intensity that was put for that shot was perfect. And I am glad Tracy will come back. I was surprised to see Peter able to find his Mom, but it was awesome the way he saved her.

If we can get more episodes with this kind of drama/intensity/action/suspense/ and character interaction, I think Heroes can top the charts.

True that. The sense of urgency is finally returning for all the characters to carry out their own little agendas until they finally unite again sometime toward the very end of the volume. The best part was being able to include scenes with many characters without the feeling of being overwhelmed with too much info.

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more by Taras Buria Microsoft's new Surface Laptop Ultra generated a lot of buzz earlier this month, but in addition to its most powerful laptop with an NVIDIA chip, Microsoft also has a more affordable laptop lineup, which has been waiting for an update for quite a while. Today, Microsoft announced the eighth-generation Surface Laptop. The new Surface Laptop is powered by the Snapdragon X2 Plus and X2 Elite processors. These chips offer faster CPU performance, up to 58% faster graphics, and 80 TOPS Neural Processing Units (NPUs) for on-device AI processing. Like the previous models, these chips retain their great energy efficiency, and Microsoft says that buyers can expect up to 20 hours of work on a single charge. The laptop is available in two sizes: 13.8-inch and 15-inch. You will have a hard time finding visual differences between the new and previous models, as Microsoft is not taking any major design leaps, except for the new Jade color, which may look familiar to Surface Laptop 5 owners. Other colors include Platinum, Black, and Dune. The 15-inch variant got a higher-resolution display. It is a 3,270 x 2,180 resolution screen with a pixel density of 262 ppi (the 13-inch model has a 201 ppi density) and a maximum brightness of 600 nits SDR and HDR. Unlike the Surface Pro 12th-gen, which is available with optional OLED displays, the Surface Laptop sticks with IPS, a 1,300:1 contrast ratio, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 3:2 aspect ratio. Another notable change in the Surface Laptop 8 is its trackpad. It now provides haptic feedback when you perform various actions in apps and the operating system. It is a relatively new feature that Microsoft brought to Windows 11 in recent updates, and it is only available on certain devices, such as the Logitech MX Master 4, Surface Slim Pen 2, the upcoming Surface Laptop Ultra, and now the Surface Laptop 8. The new Surface Laptop with the new Surface Pro Like its tablet-shaped sibling, the new Surface Laptop is notably more expensive. It starts at a $1,599 for a 13.8-inch configuration with a 256GB SSD and 16GB of RAM. However, in the US, the base model has double the storage while keeping the same price. Available configurations include up to 64GB of memory and up to 2TB SSD (user-removable PCIe Gen4). The Surface Laptop 8 is now available for purchase on the official Microsoft website.
    • Microsoft announces 12th-gen Surface Pro with Snapdragon X2 processors by Taras Buria So far, 2026 has been rich in Surface announcements. Microsoft started with a fresh lineup of Surface for Business devices powered by Intel's new Core Ultra 300 processors. Then the company revealed the Surface Laptop Ultra, its most powerful laptop with NVIDIA's RTX Spark processor. Now, it is time for new Surface Pro and Surface Laptop models with Qualcomm processors. Microsoft's original Copilot+ PCs with Snapdragon X1 chips debuted in late May 2024. Two years later, Microsoft is finally updating the lineup with new models featuring Snapdragon X2 processors. The 12th-gen Surface Pro continues the well-established formula of Microsoft's flagship tablet, and Microsoft is not even changing colors, as the tablet will be available in three colors: Dune, Black, and Platinum. The most important changes are mostly hidden inside. Microsoft switched from the Snapdragon X1 to the new Snapdragon X2, which promises up to 53% faster graphics performance than the previous generation and up to 15.5 hours of battery life. The built-in NPU is also much more powerful, and it can run at up to 80 TOPS for on-device AI processing. Like before, the new Surface Pro is available with a 13-inch IPS display, and Microsoft is still offering OLED as a separate, more expensive configuration. Speaking of configurations, the Surface Pro will be available with a 10-core Snapdragon X2 Plus or a 12-core Snapdragon X2 Elite. Microsoft expanded the available RAM configurations to 64GB (previously 32GB was the maximum), while storage remains unchanged at 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of user-replaceable PCIe Gen4 SSDs. The new Surface Pro and the Surface Laptop Other specs remain mostly unchanged. The computer has the same 1440p Windows Hello webcam, two USB4 ports for charging, data, and display output, Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 support, dual speakers, and compatibility with Surface Pro Signature and Flex keyboards. With that said, there is one very important aspect of the Surface Pro that changed significantly, and it is the price. While the previous-gen Surface Pro launched at $999 for the base configuration, in 2026, the entry-level Surface Pro with Snapdragon X2, 16GB of memory, and 256GB will set you back an eye-watering $1,499. To sweeten the pill, Microsoft is running a limited-time promotion where Surface Pro buyers can get a free Surface Pro 13-inch Keyboard. The promo runs from June 16 through June 30. The new Surface Pro is available now on the official Microsoft Store website.

    • They probably should have it where they can open other formats but only save in the open formats.
    • The next time you apply for a shift at Taco Bell or KFC, you may be interviewed, assessed, and onboarded by three AI agents named Maria, Daniel, and Claire — and those agents will continue scoring your behavior long after you clock in for the first time.................... For workers applying to or already employed at those chains, the implication is concrete: an AI system is assessing their conversational behavior over WhatsApp and phone calls, storing that behavioral data, and using it to inform decisions about whether they are hired, how they are onboarded, and whether they are flagged as a flight risk https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318390/20260615/ai-agents-now-score-taco-bell-kfc-workers-via-whatsapp-day-one.htm
