HEROES episode 4.04 “Acceptance”
Airdate: October 5, 2009

NBC is on a roll! It’s only two days till HEROES so things are ramping up a little at the Peacock network. Of course, we’d love us some photos and sneak peeks too, but this spoilery summary is good.

HEROES volume 5, this time for episode 4.04 titled “Acceptance”:

THE HEROES ARE TRYING TO ASSIMILATE BACK INTO THEIR OLD LIVES — ROBERT KNEPPER, RAY PARK, BRUCE BOXLEITNER AND SWOOSIE KURTZ GUEST STAR — As Hiro’s (Masi Oka) life continues to hang in the balance, he distracts himself with saving the lives of others. Meanwhile, Angela (Cristine Rose) tries to help the new “Nathan” (Adrian Pasdar) remember his past, at the risk of his remembering too much. Elsewhere, Tracy (Ali Larter) is determined to get her old job back, but soon realizes that she needs to make more of an impact. Jack Coleman, James Kyson Lee, Zachary Quinto and Milo Ventimiglia also star. Ashley Crow, Saemi Nakamura and Dawn Olivieri also guest star.

So the heroes are trying to get back into their lives but the past is catching up to them. Hmmm. What Angela is doing is quite scary. I’m sure she’ll wake up the “sleeping giant” and if Sylar’s not conscious of where he is yet, it really won’t be long before he realizes he is not Nathan. Bad move, mama P.

Meanwhile, I wonder what Tracy will do to get her old life back. That woman is dangerous I tell you that. She is self-preservation with a capital S, and she often gets what she wants too. Well, especially now that she’s the ice queen.

And poor Hiro (Masi Oka). Do you think Hiro will die? I sure hope not. You know there’s been rumor that one of the cast wants out right? (Or has that been going around already). I can’t picture HEROES without Hiro. Maybe they will resurrect him, or find someone new with powers to heal him… Or wait, we have Claire to do that! CLAIRE, yoohoo!

Well, we only have to wait for two days and HEROES comes back, so we’ll know a little by Monday night!
