The 21st episode of season 3 NBC Heroes “In Asylum” saw Claire hangin out with her good ole dad, Nathan who eventually gets wasted drunk in a shot game at a bar in Mexico,and passes out.Unfortunately he lost a couple of bets in the process, but Claire is able to step in and help out since her regenerative powers allow her to drink as much as she wants without getting drunk.

Meanwhile Peter Petrelli helps fly his mom, Angela Petrelli out of a bind when she’s surrounded by a bunch of Danko’s men in an elevator. Now, for the really interesting part. Sylar teams up with Danko to bring down a shape shifter who has been secretly killing off Danko’s men. Sylar’s deal doesn’t take to well with Danko at first. But after having trouble catching the shape shifter, Danko eventually is swayed by Sylar to let him help him catch the shape shifter even knowing that when he does, he will take his power. Sylar and Danko eventually do capture the shape shifter at a club. Sylar, then takes his power so he can now change or shape shift into any person he desires. He also is still working with Danko to capture all people with powers or abilities.

My Take :I thought this episode was particularly more entertaining then the other episodes which was refreshing as “Heroes” can tend to be a little boring and just plain weird at times. The advent of Sylar gaining the power to shape shift puts a very interesting twist on this show,now as he could be anyone. They’ve got me interested again. I say that because I was staring to get pretty board with the show as a whole.
