Heroes is quite an amazing show…season one captured my attention and just about made me cry when I got to the finale and realized there were no more episodes that season. Luckily Season 2 came, and it’s every bit as awesome as the first! Miss the premiere? No problem, here’s a synopsis!

The premiere episode for Season 2 is called “Four Months Later” and it takes place exactly then. Dr. Suresh is touring the country, giving lectures on a deadly new virus that threatens the entire world when a man simply known as “Bob” identifies himself as a member of the Company and makes Suresh an offer he can’t refuse.

Claire and her family are being towed around the country by her father in an attempt to stay out of sight of the Company, and they finally alight in a new town for a fresh, inconspicuous start. The plan is to keep out of the spotlight and be anonymous, but that gets rather difficult when another classmate with his own secret realizes that there’s something different about Claire and begins to take interest.

Molly Parker has been taken in by Suresh and “Officer Matt,” but all isn’t exactly calm in the household. Molly’s been having horrible nightmares about “the man worse than Sylar,” and there’s plenty of policework going on. Both Kaito Nakamura and Angela Petrelli have received grim death threats, and they suspect they’re coming from one of the “elders.”

With Peter missing after the explosion, Nathan Petrelli is convinced that his brother is alive somewhere. Haunted by guilt and dark visions, Nathan has pushed everyone away, drank himself into a slump and seriously needs a shave. Peter is indeed alive…but we find him handcuffed in a shipping container in Ireland, with no memories of who he is or what he can do.

Hiro is astonished to find himself all of a sudden in 17th century Japan, alongside the great Takezo Kensei of legends…although he quickly learns that there is a lot more to Kensei than he ever expected, and the legendary warrior is nowhere near who he thought he was.

Finally, we meet a new pair of characters, Maya and Alejandro. Wanted for murder due to Maya’s stress-triggered ability that causes everyone around her to die, the brother and sister pair are fleeing to America to find a certain “Dr. Suresh.”

This first episode is jam-packed with action and storyline, and would be a really hard one to miss. We can be absolutely positive that Heroes is keeping in the tradition of the first season, with wrenching cliffhangers and edge-of-your-seat wonders to make your jaw drop.
