Heroes Reborn races towards its finale in “Company Woman.” It has been announced that this will be a series, not season, finale. I guess the ratings weren’t there to keep things going. Evo powers can’t fix everything.

In a programming choice that still baffles me, the Heroes Reborn series went on hiatus ten episodes in. Then, with only three shows left, they came back before most of the other shows that went on winter break. The show’s ratings aren’t the best, and there’s a lot of doubt about it coming back after the initial thirteen episode run. Maybe NBC is burning off the episodes.

“11:53 to Odessa” is the mid-season finale of Heroes Reborn. I’m not sure why they are calling it that, since this is episode ten out of thirteen, but whatever works for them, I guess. There’s a lot going on in different times and places, that’s for sure.

June 13th, Part Two is an episode of Heroes Reborn that will make you think a little bit to get through it. Time travel can do that, and there are a few examples of that in this show. Add in memory manipulation, and it makes for something that you really might want to be paying attention to in order to get the full story.

Things get even grimmer for Noah and his band of Evos in “June 13th Part One.” That, of course, is the date of the ill-fated conference in Odessa when the word changed and Evos became the newest oppressed class in the wake of a terrorist act that killed many. Noah finally convinces Hiro to use his powers and take them back to the conference, trying to prevent the bombs from going off and find out what happened to Claire, Noah’s daughter.

Heroes Reborn ends up in the “Lion’s Den” this week. Noah, Quentin, and Taylor are learning there’s a lot more going on at Renautas than they suspected, even worse than capturing and stealing powers from various Evos. They come up with a plan to try and get more information about what’s going on that requires more help from Taylor.
