Monday ’s Heroes was precisely what this show should be every hebdomad : Compelling , tightly - plotted , and give us challenging plot of land twists that actually precede somewhere . Plus , flashback to 1961 ! The only thing missing was Sylar . spoiler ahead !
“ 1961 ” focused all on one group of characters in one piazza – the extended Petrelli family , let in HRG and Suresh , at Coyote Sands . That point - of - survey stability gave us a chance to travail into some serious patch ontogeny , as well as digging into passel graves stock with dead soundbox back in 1961 .
It turns out that the confederacy - of - mutants Company began almost 50 years ago at mystical Coyote Sands , with a black merging between teenager Angela , as well as cuteypants Charles Deveaux ( the don of Peter ’s now - utter lady friend from time of year 1 ) , emo snot Charles Linderman ( who grows up to asterisk in A Clockwork Orange ) , and nerdotron Bobby Bishop ( later to be Elle ’s pappa ) . I unfeignedly make out this scene where the four of them break loose the camp for one night and go out for minor and a little pocket-sized townsfolk racism . I would pay full money to watch a 1961 spinoff of Heroes where Angela and Deveaux fall in dearest and go on a bad-tempered - country fling where they mind - control everybody into permit them do the interracial tango . Eventually they ’ll just brainwash all racialism away and the secret plan of the show will converge with the patch of Hairspray ( the original , you dumbasses , not that terrible remake with John Travolta ) and one of the sport will bring Divine back from the all in and television receiver will be awesome again .

Ahem .
Anyway , in reality , Angela want to sieve through the dust-covered ruins of Coyote Sands , where scientist ( including Suresh ’s smokin ’ hot dad ) try out on “ special kids . ” So that ’s why Angela has gone there , gathering together sons Peter and Nathan , granddaughter Claire , adoptive papa HRG , and mad scientist sidekick Suresh .
Oh , and also ? She has had an apocalyptic dream about her sister Alice being alive . Wait , what ? There is a sister Alice ? Oh yes , as we pick up in more flashbacks ( helpfully take in the black and bloodless that permeated all of realness before 1970 ) . She was pretty whiny and annoying , always call Angela “ banana , ” but she had weather - controlling tempest - esque tycoon . frankly , are there any 10 - Men power that Heroes has n’t plundered yet ?

For grounds that are never excuse , Banana and Alice ’s parents have brought them to Coyote Sands so that Suresh can stick giant needles in them . Also , there are a net ton of other mutant Thomas Kid there and somehow Angela gets picked by Deveux , Linderman , and Bishop to join their boy band . While they ’re out dance and brainwashing white people into tolerating them , Suresh Sr . tries to experiment on Alice with a giant needle . She gross out out and brings a elephantine violent storm that tear lightning into bad guy wire , who then start shooting all the proficient hombre , and then we have to assume that everybody dies except Suresh and Alice ( who blot out under a construction ) . unluckily , Angela lied to Alice mighty before she left , severalize her that she ’d had a prophetical dream that as long as Alice stay on at Coyote Sands she ’d be dependable .
And abide she did , for decades , in some kind of cement bunker that is inexplicably full of newspaper . Apparently she ’s been steal displace food to live on and reading kids books all those geezerhood , but has somehow miraculously morph into a sexy get on flower child with beautiful curly hair and lots of scarf . So she ’s feral , but she ’s an get on hippie momma ? So confusing .
Anyway , Angela eventually witness Alice and they have a tearful reunification full of wry - mouthed apologies ( Angela ) and freaky - eyed raving ( Alice ) . But when Angela admits she lie to Alice all those years ago , Alice flies into another lightning fad , almost kills Suresh , and evaporate . So no more Alice . And then Suresh decides to appease at Coyote Sands when the rest of Banana ’s Clan leave because he desire to live on in broken down shacks and watch old movie of his pa excruciate the great unwashed with grown needles in 1961 .

The best theatrical role of this sequence were the flashbacks , because we see how the early members of the Company – which after became vicious – came together out of a desire to protect each other . Also , we see that Angela could have get together with somebody elbow room cute than Papa Petrelli .
What else happened ? There was an atrocious and thoroughly worthless picture where Claire distinguish her two daddies that she wishes she desire to be normal , but that she like grind up grave or something . And then they both tell her that she ’s just a teenager and that ’s normal . Also , Banana state her that she ’s really substantial and if only Banana had been as strong as Claire then nothing speculative would have chance . earnestly , why is everybody licking Claire ’s butt ? Has she done anything mythic of late ?
speak of butt - licking , there was also a boring prospect where Nathan say Peter they have to forgive each other and Peter says something all incomprehensible about how Nathan stole his tickets to some unsung sporting outcome in 1985 . Just in case you are wondering , Peter and Nathan are TOTALLY MANLY because they like athletics . Unfortunately we are wholly world-weary because we come to watch mutant action not to hear about golf or hockey game or lawn bowling whatever the underworld they were verbalise about . Anyway , for some intellect Peter eventually forgives Nathan because they are “ family , not a company . ” And apparently the conflict between fellowship and companies is that there is room for pardon in families . OK , fine . I like the whole Sopranos feeling associated with that variety of public lecture , and there is a very Sopranos mob dinner party scene at the end of the episode .

Banana ’s Clan is eat at the Coyote Sands Cafe where back in 1961 Deveaux brainwash the bastardly bloodless fellow . But now her family is all together and everything is french small fry and Peter is forgiving Nathan for the hockey matter and the annoying Alice is ostracise again and they ’re all talking about how they ’re going to go back home and be better people . Nathan is reassure everybody that he ’ll “ clean house things up ” in Washington and babble to the president ( which – why could n’t he do that BEFORE ? ! ) . But then they attend up at the TV , and there is Nathan , the way he take care pre - retro windcheater and butch haircut . And he ’s talking about “ big variety . ”
Yes , it ’s SYLAR ! Pretending to be Nathan ! I acknowledge you did n’t see that one come . The truly weird part is that Angela give this creepy-crawly little smile when she realize it . Is this part of her ongoing creepy-crawly plan ? Or is it just that her face is so tight and dry that every construction look like a creepy-crawly smile ?
Tune in next workweek , when an absence of Dancing With Deveaux will make everything suckier .
