“Every hero must learn his purpose. Then he’ll be tested and called to greatness.”
Those words, pronounced by Hiro Nakamura during Heroes episode 1 ‘Genesis’, sound more and more prophetic as we approach Heroes Season One finale. Hiro will soon face a challenge, and the result of that challenge will determine -and hopefully change – present and future events.

During episode 21 ‘The Hard Part’ we’ve seen Hiro facing Sylar, and the impression was Hiro lost only the first round of a long match. What could be even more important is that Hiro’s famous weapon, the sword he stole from Mr. Linderman’s collection, has been damaged, and we all know how important that sword is when it comes to boost Hiro’s self-confidence.

What’s next? (spoilers warning)

This week EW published a great article on the next 3 episodes of Heroes. This issue of EW is available in 5 collector’s edition Heroes covers.

Here’s a sneak peek to Sylar vs. Hiro scene.

Zachary Quinto is rehearsing a scene in which Sylar confesses to his mother (Ellen Greene) that he has a nasty habit of murdering others of his freaky new ilk. (He spares her the part where he might be eating their brains, too.) Naturally, Mom is disappointed, so she grabs a knife and tries to gut him. The actors struggle â€â€? then they freeze. The physical universe has ground to a halt. It’s Hiro time. Slipping into the scene, Masi Oka withdraws his sword from its sheath and prepares to bring it down on Quinto’s head. Does the noble hero have the stones to decapitate a defenseless, time-paused soul, even one as nasty as Sylar? “I’m sorry,” says Oka. Then, breaking character: “Don’t worry. It’s not sharp.” Quinto, steely brown eyes unflinching, doesn’t laugh. His response: “Bring it.”

This morning, Masi Oka, who plays Hiro Nakamura on the hit NBC show
“Heroes,” stopped by for an interview with Meredith, David, Al and
Campbell.

I caught up with him for a few minutes before his appearance, and we
chatted about his recent fame, Robin Williams, and his upcoming
college reunion. Here’s some of our conversation:

Q: So you’ve got your 10-year college reunion coming up at Brown
University. What will you say to people who come up to you and ask
what you’ve been up to lately?

Masi Oka: Oh, I’ll just tell them I’ve been living the life. Living my dream.

Jack Coleman revealed some info about episode 20, which will be aired on early May. According Jack Coleman, episode 20 is about five year later from present day. Hiro & Ando, yep Hiro and Ando(!), making a jump into future. Altough our lovely ex-cop Matt Parkman will be little bit different..

[spoiler]

Greg Grunberg : We’re shooting an episode… we’re about to shoot, where it’s five years in the future, and it’s not the Matt Parkman that anyone is used to seeing. My character is in a place that is really dark, and I’m not going to play it like this menacing, evil guy. I’m just going to play it as normal as possible. That, to me, is the way to make the most impact. Let the actions speak louder than the words

[/spoiler]

Maybe we can get a chance to see Peter as Scarface?
