I know you don't care but I was reading the Heroes recap on TWOP today and Erin nailed the purpose of the show right on. Everything was worthless once Peter put on a shirt.
Here's how I would shorten her recap:
Previously - Peter was found chained up in a container. Shirtless. You heard me. And you'll hear me again, because Peter's pretty much shirtless throughout this episode, and I don't care if you're a straight male who's watching this show: it's really all about Milo Ventimiglia without his damn clothes on and you know it.
We begin with Shirtless Peter, strapped to a chair, getting splashed with a big bucket of water. Oh, great. So now he's shirtless AND WET? I'm never getting through this episode. So, whatever, Peter's wet and shirtless and the leader of the Shamrock Boys is demanding to know where the hell Peter stashed the iPods. This storyline is completely retarded, but it affords us the opportunity to see Milo wet and naked, so I suppose I can allow it.
The Shamrock Boys leave, giving Peter a chance to concentrate fully on getting himself out of the ropes. He grunts and struggles and closes his eyes until, finally, his wrists just...phase through the ropes. He grabs a shirt off a shelf and puts it on DAMMIT. And thus ends the Shirtless Peter portion of this show. And now I'm bored.
I didn't care to read the remaining 6 pages of the recap.
