Mum and Dad watch Heroes too

okay before i go one i must say this OMG! Heroes rocked!!!! I love Hiro Nakamura! i wanna marry her sister so my kids can get that special power in their genes too! Please please go watch the last episode

okay back to main story. The mother and the father have been trying to clock in two to three episodes a night of Heroes since last week and now they're at episode 13 or something along the part where Sylar got caught. Its damn funny trying to explain who's who in the show when you already know what happens. For example, Mum will ask what Peter Petrelli's power is, "he can fly right? how come he can paint also?" and then i go like....hmmmmmmmm and try to explain to her about his special ability without spoiling the excitement of figuring out yourself.

Tonight mum wanted to watch the next episode of which i would usually burn two episodes on a rewritable cd and load it into our DivX friendly dvd player for her daily dose of Claire Bennett (My Mum's name is Claire too, I think its her favourite character). Thing is I burnt the Season Finale last night for myself and forgot to record where Mum and Dad stopped, btw they never take note of where they stopped and if they accidently loaded the season finale and saw that somebody had somebody's power and the other guy has the power too, i would be so doomed.

So to ask questions about what happened in the last episode they watched without spoiling too much (or getting the wrong episode which could be a massive spoiler) i had to be really careful with my words, like "Mummy! you watch until Sylar got caught already or not?. But when i reached the word Sylar, Dad already said "yeah he in that jail already! and mum goes "so fast get caught how to end the show?" of which i had to really resist the urge to say "Sylar very Powerful you know! not so easy one"

and then there ar eother questions like
"who's Ted ah? is he the one that can explode?" (reply "yeah Mum he got radiation")
" Wah this Linderman fella, who is he ah?" (reply ...better not tell you")
"This Indian fella got power or not?" (reply "no but he's very important".... replies back "then why no power?")
Dad on the other hand just sits there and tries not to read too much into the show, sometimes looking confused because Mum irons and thus can watch more episodes than Dad who prefers Deal or no Deal. Sometimes i have to explain to him that Claire's Father got no name one he's just HRG, that sorta thing.

anyhoo gtg Episode 13 and 14 are ready for the DVD player, i think i can rewatch it with them.

on a side note: wouldn't it be wonderful to see Isaac Mendez paint something like Steven Gerrard holding up the Champions League Trophy and then you see Claude (invisible guy or in mum's words that transparent man) or Peter Petrelli in the background, clearly showing that they stopped AC Milan from winning which would have brought great anguish to the world.
