Heroes 3.24 “I Am Sylar” – description and spoilers

Heroes episode 3.24 “I Am Sylar” 
Airdate: April 20, 2009

When Sylar took the power of the shapeshifter, he thought he can be whoever he wants to be. He would be harder to track down and easier to evade capture. Not that Sylar is known to back down, or run away from a challenge, but having the ability to change identities can be pretty handy. Unfortunately for the psychopath killer, the new ability comes with an “unexpected identity crisis”. Will Sylar become a liability for the Hunter?

Meanwhile, the heroes still need to take down the Hunter’s operations. Who’s going to step up? Matt’s got new daddy roles to play now, so he might be pre-occupied. There’s Peter, and Angela, if they can figure out what to do. Nathan and Claire, maybe. How about Hiro and Ando? Will Hiro get his powers back?

Masi Oka revealed a little spoiler about Hiro’s abilities –

“When Hiro gets his powers back, there’s kind of a final mission. Rebel has something in mind for them once the current mission is over. So, we’re moving forward to a finale that wraps a lot of things up. [Hiro is] going to have a hand in trying to fix that situation [of heroes being captured] somehow. But it also forces him to make a choice, and he’s going to have to make a sacrifice in a situation that could be life threatening.

Interesting isn’t it! Well, here is the episode description for “I Am Sylar”, which is the last episode prior to the finale. There is no hint about how things will end but we’re getting there:
