Question on Heroes

[sei_shounagon]

All right, I finally caught up on all the episodes of Heroes that I had missed by deciding to watch the show a little late. And I just had to ask if anyone else thought the guy who "hollows" people with Claire's dad had the same symbol on his tie that appears on Nikki's back when she's Jessica. I noticed it in the 5th episode (Hiro's) when they

I'd have to double check, but are you talking about the same little symbol on Mohinder's father's computer, Matt, and the guy who can burn things? If so, then yeah, it's probably the same thing.

Um...there was a symbol on Mohinder's father's computer? Missed that one.

I'm guessing Matt is the police guy, and then you're talking about those two stitch marks on their necks? The one on Nikki/Jessica was more like an S with lines coming off of it. Like I said, I was probably just seeing things because I don't know what connection they'd have. :\

[aradiantsun]

It was in "hidden" in the scrolling text/numbers.

Yes, on both counts. I think that the two stitch marks and the S shape join together - making the shape that you can see on the computer. I think the shape has something to do with the special abilities, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was on the guy's tie.

You're watching Heroes! <3 I'm up to ep 8, have to catch up.

Anyway, check out this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroes_(TV_series)#Symbols :)

I had tried to reply yesterday, and then lj ate my comment. Grrr.

Anyway, yeah, that's the symbol I was talking about. I guess it is the same, but then it also shows up a bunch more times that I never caught. >.>

But still, I'm proud I did at least catch the necklace on the Hatian guy (except I thought it was a tie tack, haha >.<). Wonder if it was just thrown in a bunch of places for the fun of it, or if it means something more. Thanks for sharing that link (why didn't I think to look at wiki?). :)

And don't worry, I just started watching last week (caught the last half of the ep purely by chance) so I had a lot of catching up to do in order to understand what was going on. :P But it's a good show, I wasn't going to watch it because the ads made it seem like something different (not even my husband saying it's good convinced me). I'm glad I accidentally stumbled upon because look what a great show I'd be missing. D:
