HEROES 4.09 “Shadowboxing” Episode Description

HEROES 4.09 “Shadowboxing”
Airdate November 9, 2009

Here you go! If you saw tonight’s episode on HEROES you would not want to miss anymore of this show! The stories are riveting, and it’s keeping us on the edge! What will happen to Claire now that her powers are exposed? How will Matt Parkman regain his body back from Sylar? The sneaky psychopath tricked him! And if you recall from two episodes down, Peter acquired Jeremy’s powers of death-and-life. Can Peter handle that kind of power to give life or take it?

Check out the episode summary for HEROES 4.09 “Shadowboxing” –

CLAIRE LEARNS THE TRUTH BEHIND THE ATTACKS AND SYLAR TAKES MATTERS INTO HIS OWN HANDS – JIMMY JEAN-LOUIS, MADELINE ZIMA, DEANNE BRAY, DAWN OLIVIERI AND TESSA THOMPSON GUEST STAR — Claire (Hayden Panettiere) is determined to get to the bottom of the Sorority Rush attacks on her own, until H.R.G. (Jack Coleman) intervenes only to realize he may be the source of her troubles. Meanwhile, Peter’s (Milo Ventimiglia) new ability is a perfect fit for his job and gives him the opportunity to help Emma (guest star Deanne Bray) accept her new life. Elsewhere, Sylar’s (Zachary Quinto) battle at gaining full control over Matt’s (Greg Grunberg) body escalates — with potentially dangerous implications at stake. Robert Knepper and Adrian Pasdar also star. Kat Purgal, Carlease Burke, Danica Stewart, Candice Patton, Sally Champlin and Assaf Cohen also guest star.

Let’s speculate! Peter’s first patient will be Emma and of course he restores her hearing! But would that remove her powers? Emma isn’t someone who is very open to change, so I wonder how she will take this, or if Peter will get to use his new powers on her.

I wonder what the writers mean that HRG is the cause of Claire’s trouble? Samuel had mentioned Jack previously as someone who had been on their tail. Is Samuel’s intentions for Claire because of her dad?

And of course, there’s Matt versus Sylar. This is just scary to think what Sylar can do to Matt’s body now that he owns it! I don’t like the sound of “potentially dangerous implications at stake”. When it comes to Sylar, you just know it’s catastrophic.

[This post was corrected to show that Emma is deaf, not blind. Thanks RP.

    Dont get me wrong this season is such an improvement, season 2 and 3 were both good but this is deffinately up there with season 1, i’m a little annoyed that Claire and her dad are constantly dragged into this mess of her powers coming out it just never stops, couldnt they just give her a couple of episodes of normality?
    and why is the whole gretchen and claire storyline taking so long?
    and peters powers should be fully restored its a bit crazy that they arent, and hiro shouldnt have the clot its just silly
