Ando

I think that Ando is finally going to have a proper role in this section for he is going to be the one to power Peter so that he can take more than one power at a time.

Dania?

The NBC website says that Dania Ramirez will star in this episode. Is this true, or are our sources wrong yet once again about Maya? (Dania was said to be in several episodes that she wasn’t in, in the last volume.) However, her being in the last graphic novel suggests that we haven't seen the last of her character after all. Any thoughts?--Mohinder613 (my talk page) 14:28, 10 February 2009 (EST)

  • It could be that she'll be around next week. I guess we'll have to wait and see.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:19, 10 February 2009 (EST)
  • She's listed as part of the cast, on each episode's press release. It means that she's part of the season's cast, not that she's in the episode. Remember that this is still Season 3. - Josh (talk/contribs) 15:25, 10 February 2009 (EST)
    • Thank you, I wasn’t sure if the (as listed) “show cast” literally meant the cast of the season or individual episode. Yes, I have read every “next on Heroes” for the past fourteen episodes, but I apologize, I just had it in my head that it was for the episode’s cast. Still, I have this feeling (or fear) that Maya will be back. (She’s not my favorite character.) --Mohinder613 (my talk page) 23:57, 10 February 2009 (EST)

Epic Episode

I loved this episode. The scene with Tracy's escape was wonderful; I was glad to see her victim wobble a little instead of simply stiffening. Sylar and Luke are great. Also, from a show that rarely plays contemporary music, I was overjoyed to have Sylar serenaded by one of my favorite songs, Psycho Killer by Talking Heads. Great one altogether. Kortu 22:12, 16 February 2009 (EST)

  • Agreed, it was as great as always. I was disappointed when Sylar left Luke but that made it that much better when he went back to get him. Bloodbath 22:17, 16 February 2009 (EST)
    • That ending was GRREAT!!!!!!! Did not see that one coming. --Crazylicious 23:06, 16 February 2009 (EST)
      • The ending was superb, but I was thinking to myself that Peter was even shown once in this episode. Enter the finale and I was proven wrong. --TrueBlueBrooklynite 23:07, 16 February 2009 (EST)
  • can someone lpease tell me the ending
    • Noah was drinking in a bar and apparently Peter, Matt, and I guess Mohinder drugged his drink. Noah passed out and P/M/H carried him off. Bloodbath 00:11, 17 February 2009 (EST)

Who is being hunted?

Nathan had a nice little bulletin board with a lot of pictures. Can anyone get a screenshot or two of the board so we can start identifying people? If you have a 10th wonder account, post it on this thread, please: http://www.starkvilleforums.com/showthread.php?t=1974 Timebender13 22:41, 16 February 2009 (EST)

Redirect

Okay, Building 26 currently redirects to the actual building. This is somewhat problematic, especially since the link on the front page even redirects there. What can be done? --Crazylicious 23:26, 16 February 2009 (EST)

  • Any references to the episode must point to the article which is Episode:Building 26. Any that point to the redirect that usually exists have to be updated. (Admin 23:28, 16 February 2009 (EST))
  • I also didn't realize the AOTW template was now using the currentep information, so I reverted my changes to currentep until the new episode article is a little more complete. I updated the article of the week template so that even when we do switch it to the new episode the link will be fixed and now point to the episode article rather than the building. (Admin 23:34, 16 February 2009 (EST))
    • I think Building 26 should direct to the episode, with a disambig.--Riddler 23:44, 16 February 2009 (EST)
      • I agree, Riddler. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:53, 16 February 2009 (EST)
      • No, the Episode: namespace was originally created to address this exact scenario where an episode name matched some other article. The redirects in the main namespace that exist for every episode should never have been added in the first place. They contaminate the namespace, however until now it's almost never been an issue. The Episode: namespace is for episodes and the main namespace is for anything that we don't have a dedicated namespace for (which is generally everything we don't expect to see a naming collision with). We just need to go through and fix the dependencies we currently have on the episode redirects. (Admin 23:55, 16 February 2009 (EST))
        • Gotcha. I am only concerned because I think there must be some templates that use PAGENAME when referring to the episode name, which means Building 26 would be talking about the episode, but would direct to the location. I can't think of any off the top of my head, but I'm sure we'll run into them soon enough...It also means some extra work to go through and make sure the links direct to the right place, but that's less of an issue and more just taking an extra second to be exacting. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 00:13, 17 February 2009 (EST)
          • I found a couple of them already and corrected them. I brought this up a little while ago here because I saw this coming once I saw the episode was the same name as a location. Once we find them and correct them we'll be in pretty good shape. (Admin 00:15, 17 February 2009 (EST))
  • Okay, so I just want to be explicit for anybody who will be linking to one of the two articles. When referring to the government building in which Nathan works, please use [[Building 26]] to link to Building 26. When referring to the episode, please use ''[[Episode:Building 26|]]'' (note the extra pipe) or [[Episode:Building 26|]] (in the case of Character History headings) to link to Episode:Building 26. When citing the episode, the episode namespace should always be stripped or removed. That's done by piping. Thanks, all! If there are any questions, please ask. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 00:38, 17 February 2009 (EST)

New actors and characters

Okay, there's a whole slew this week! Here goes...

          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          

It's the agents that are going to be the biggest killer. I didn't include them in Template:AppearancesBuilding 26 because I'm not sure which is which. It doesn't help that the names aren't very descriptive, and that we're missing images for one of them. I'll have to go back and really study the episode to figure out which is which. If somebody else would like to do that, it would sure save me a lot of time! Thanks... -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 00:53, 17 February 2009 (EST)

  • Dang, more numbered guys. I never liked them; but we always get these issues with agents, guards, officers, etc. Which reminds me of the Primatech guards that still need to be deleted. Oh well, at least these guys are credited, which gives more of a reason to add them in. If no-one has rewatched the episode and figured out which guard goes where (I think we should number them according to their order of appearance... that is to say, if we find that Agent 4 appears before Agent 2, we need to renumber them) by Thursday (which is when I usually watch new Heroes episodes, I'll go ahead and do it. --Radicell 03:52, 17 February 2009 (EST)

The diner where Sylar and Luke stop

According to the sign on the window, the diner where Sylar and Luke stop is called Olympic Coffee Shop and Diner. I think the sign outside the building said Olympic Coffee Shop and Restaurant. One should link to the other. I'd go with "Diner" as the main article, and "Restaurant" as the redirect. According to the writing on the police cars, the building is in Illinois. Oh, and don't forget to include the ZZ Top guy! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 00:59, 17 February 2009 (EST)

Costa Verde Hotel

Do we know if this is the name of the hotel? If it's not the actual name, then we should not capitalize "Hotel". Instead, it should just be "Costa Verde hotel". -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:38, 17 February 2009 (EST)
