Heroes Reborn Recap: E.P.I.C. Fail

Heroes Reborn Recap: E.P.I.C. Fail, Thursday’s adventure of Heroes Reborn can best be summed up by Ghost‘s Oda Mae Brown: “Molly, you in danger, girl.”

Even admitting the hour was absolutely agonizing for Miko, Tommy and the blow of the Evos, none of them were kidnapped, tranquilized on a flight to Colorado or had affairs amid into their skull so that a base association could use their admiral for evil. So, yeah, Molly Walker wins this round.

But afore I get advanced of myself, let’s breach down the data of “Under the Mask”:

DANCIN’ WITH MOLLY | Now that their car and a lot of of their assets accept been baseborn by Luke and Joanne, Noah and Quentin are affected to go on the run from Renautas as they clue down Molly. Aboriginal thing’s first, though: Quentin needs to see a doctor afterwards demography a ammo to the arm, and if Noah accompanies him to the hospital, he is anon accustomed by one of the agents members, Dr. Moore, who endure saw Noah on the day of the Odessa explosion. Allegedly their endure affair didn’t go too well, either, because the afterimage of Noah has Dr. Moore calling aegis aural seconds. Sensing that he’s not in Dr. Moore’s acceptable graces (but clumsy to bethink why, acknowledgment to The Haitian), Noah holds one of the hospital’s aegis guards at gunpoint and armament him to acquisition the building’s camera footage from June 13 — a assignment that gets able way too quickly, if you ask me.

The aegis tapes acknowledge absolutely a bit of information: Not abandoned does the timestamp accumulate jumping aback and alternating (which accept to beggarly Hiro Nakamura was there at some point), but Noah is spotted in the morgue, complaining over Claire’s body. Present-day Noah is, understandably, abandoned added puzzled afterwards examination the footage. Wasn’t Claire not in Odessa on the day of the attack? What does Hiro accept to do with any of this? And what did The Haitian wish Noah to overlook if he wiped his memory? Already again, Noah concludes that the abandoned being who can accord him answers is Molly, so he and Quentin accomplish their way to Midian, Colo. to clue her down.

Molly, meanwhile, is accepting a asperous go of it afterwards accepting captured by an Evo and his adherent in a Las Vegas auberge room. They admission Molly into a clandestine Renautas jet headed for Midian (and balm her already she’s on board, for acceptable measure), and already they’ve landed, Molly is the endure section of the addle that Renautas needs to barrage E.P.I.C., a new anatomy of technology that will accouter Molly’s admiral and locate every individual Evo on the planet with the columnist of a button. (That’s absorbing and all, but I’m still not over the accomplished “moving pictures” affair that the iPhone 6S can do. The future!)

The acceptable news: Noah and Quentin acquisition their way to Midian, bastard into Renautas’ address and get Molly abandoned for a abrupt chat. The bad news: Molly doesn’t wish to go anywhere with Noah, and she refuses to acquaint him what absolutely happened in Odessa because “there’s too abundant at risk.” Sooo… that was a bust. And to accomplish affairs worse, Molly is hauled off to a tiny, aphotic allowance by a few Renautas advisers just moments afore the company’s CEO, Erica Kravid, affairs to present E.P.I.C. to a allowance abounding of Renautas higher-ups. Molly struggles as abundant as she can, but it isn’t enough. She’s absorbed up to all sorts of wires, and if a bung is amid anon into her arch (!!!), E.P.I.C. is launched, giving Renautas admission to every Evo in the world. Great.

Elsewhere in the hour…

* With the advice of endless Evos actually at their fingertips, Luke and Joanne acquisition themselves at a capital — she wants to accumulate their killing bacchanalia going, but he can’t accept why they’re still accomplishing this afterwards a abounding year has anesthetized back Odessa. Luke gets so frustrated, in fact, that if he angrily turns down the car’s radio volume, the punch al of a sudden sparks, and their car break down abnormal later. That afternoon, if the brace stops at a booth for lunch, Luke actually cooks his actual attenuate steak into a crisp section of meat, artlessly by affecting his knife to it.

But this has to be a fluke, right? There’s no way an Evo analgesic could accept admiral himself, right? For Luke, no such luck: Afterwards he and Joanne stop at a cabin for the day, Luke feels himself afire up — nay, aglow — in the afternoon sunlight, and afore he can stop it from happening, columns of ablaze activate alpha from Luke’s palms. (This will be a actual afflictive altercation with the wife later.)

* In Tokyo, Miko is just a few concussed aegis guards abroad from award and extenuative her father… but she is chock-full by Harris Prime, a Renautas agent who takes Miko’s brand and informs her it isn’t hers. If Harris presents the brand to Erica Kravid, they both apprehend the weapon belongs to Hiro — I accept the chat “Yatta!” is adapted actuality — and Harris is instructed to authority Miko in the building’s capital appointment room.

Once there, Miko is afflicted with new information: Not abandoned does her ancestor accept powers, but there was allegedly an blow that dead Miko in the past. Harris offers to jog Miko’s anamnesis with an ominous-looking set of knives, but afore he can alpha disturbing her, the ambrosial video gamer Ren bursts in and saves Miko. And herein lies the crazy part: If Miko severs Harris’ arm afore artifice with Ren, the addendum anon regenerates on Harris’ physique — and a additional physique regenerates from the burst arm. Not abandoned are there two Harrises now in the appointment room, but there could be endless copies of him beyond the globe. Let’s just alarm it Heroes: Orphan Black and alarm it a day.

* Speaking of Orphan Black, Dylan Bruce — aka Orphan‘s Hot Paul — makes his aboriginal actualization in Adventure 3 as an adversary of the Evo citizenry in Los Angeles, who tries to bag and tag as abounding acquired bodies as accessible while accepting intel on El Vengador’s underground railroad. Carlos, who has absitively to clearly yield over his brother’s masked adapt ego, advance down Hot Paul — yes, I will alarm him that until Dylan’s appearance is accustomed a name — and attempts to annihilate him… but allegedly Hot Paul is an Evo himself, and Carlos is no bout for his adversary’s super-strength.

* Just afore he attends a abode affair befuddled by Brad, Tommy informs his mom that he’s been accepting bearding argument letters that are admonishing him of danger. His mom anon deduces that it accept to be Casper Abraham — aka The Man With The Pennies — and if she pays Casper a appointment at gunpoint, he informs her that he is alone “following the plan” and that “the apple will charge Tommy soon.” It’s all actual cryptic and harder to decipher, but Tommy’s mom is afraid abundant to aces him up from the affair early. Although Tommy tries to calm her down and argue her that they don’t charge to leave boondocks this time, his mom is so beat while active that she runs a chicken light… causing their car to be T-boned.

* And let’s not overlook what’s blow in the Arctic Circle: An Evo called Malina is acquirements to accouter her powers, which, at this point, assume to absorb the ascendancy of bright storm clouds that are aggressive the planet. Just as Malina is alpha to accept her abilities, though, Harris and a few of his Renautas henchmen access in the Arctic Circle, area they activate to abutting in on Malina’s whereabouts. (Malina, you aswell in danger, girl.)
