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!

Entitled “Four Months Later,” Season 2’s first episode starts with Mohinder Suresh traveling the country lecturing on a deadly virus with potential to devastate the population when he is met by “Bob,” a Company operative who offers him help in finding a cure for the virus if he’ll join their efforts.

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.

Officer Parkman and Dr. Suresh have decided to take in Molly and give her a real home, but things are far from relaxed. Molly is consistently having worse and worse nightmares about “The Nightmare Man,” and Parkman has his hands full in a police investigation regarding some death threats against Kaito Nakamura and Angela Petrelli.

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.

We are also introduced to a new pair of characters, Maya and Alejandro. Driven from their home and pursued by the police as murder suspects because of the accidental first release of Maya’s ability to cause a sort of plague in all surrounding people whenever she gets extremely upset, the brother and sister are fleeing to America to try to locate Dr. Suresh in hopes of finding a cure.

So that’s that. This season is certainly going to be eventful, at least if the premiere is any good indicator. There’s a lot going on, and as you probably hoped it hasn’t lost any of its charm and certainly still loves the cliffhanger endings. We’re in for one wild ride!
