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.

    • If you can't spell a simple word that 2nd graders learn, your entire argument is suspect.
    • And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.
    • "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
