Preview of coming episodes *spoilers*
February 5 Distractions Hiro tries to explain his new life direction to his unsympathetic father and sister; Niki tries to connect with D.L. and Micah; Peter gets another lesson in harnessing his power; and Claire's search for her birth mother leads her to a Texas trailer park. George Takei: Saemi Nakamura Jessalyn Gilsig Christopher Eccleston: Claude February 12 Run! Matt takes a job as a bodyguard, which puts him in an assassin's line of fire; Hiro returns to Las Vegas to get the sword; Mohinder locates another from the list; Simone makes a surprise move in her search for Peter. Christopher Eccleston: Claude.

Can't wait for tonight's episode! It will be interesting to see what Hiro's relationship with his father is like and how Claire gets along with her birth mother. I don't know if we find out tonight who her father is or if that's coming up later. Like many others have speculated, I think Claire's dad is going to be Nathan. He's had an affair with a blonde before (Niki) and he's old enough to be her father. However, it could be that Linderman is Claire's dad or her dad is someone who hasn't been introduced before. It looks like Claire's current mother might be killed since Sylar breaks into their house. I hope he doesn't kill her dad, too. He's been an interesting character. With any luck, maybe the Haitian will show up and save them.

February 19 Unexpected Peter is disappointed by a betrayal; Claire can't contain her anger toward her father; Matt loses control when radioactive refugee Ted Sprague (Matthew John Armstrong) shows up with a new hero (Stana Katic) who has “wireless” mental powers. February 26 Company Man The Bennets are taken hostage by Matt and Ted Sprague, which leads to a tragic showdown---and some insight into Mr. Bennet's mysterious past. Eric Roberts guest stars.
