I think my expectations were too high, I just thought it was OK. Claire getting out her bedroom window was weak. My daughter is going to be killed tonight, but I'll just assume she is going to sit in her room all night long. I'm sure no teenager has ever climbed out their window in the middle of the night
They should have written it such that the mother says she will watch her, then lets her go.
The Peter/Sylar struggle was weak too. You have all these powers and you are going to grapple someone hand to hand?
I hope they explain in more detail how Mohinder's dad "unlocked" the secret to finding the heroes. Improbable that he could pinpoint people around the world that would undergo genetic evolution.
Something else I noticed.
The paintings are not pre-determined events. If I recall, both Peter and Claire ran up the steps, there wasn't a point where it was just Claire so that painting did not take place (or hasn't yet anyway). Hiro should be visiting the school with his buddy to look at the banner, this might be upcoming once he returns from his journey.
