Factual errors: When Claire and Meredith are in the container, Meredith users her fire ability to strip the oxygen from the air so Claire starts to asphyxiate. When Meredith stops the fire, Claire is suddenly able to breath again. Stopping the fire appears to have restored the oxygen to the air.

[after killing the "German"] He was gonna ruin your plan.
Flint: Yeah, what is the plan exactly?
Benjamin 'Knox' Washington: Stay put, raise hell and wait for the man the company sends when super people do bad things. And after he gets here, then I'll beat his horn-rimmed glasses right into his skull.

Heroes: One of Us, One of Them
Okay, okay okay...this is less of a comment, more of a rant, coming from a reviewer who usually likes to carefully organize his thoughts and comments. Not this time. This episode does not garner my courtesy, or my intelligence, because it gave neither to me. Now, before I tare this pitiful excuse for story-telling apart, I want to say 2 things:
1. I enjoyed the first two episodes of season 3, despite the typical holes in logic. 2. I'm about to give new meaning to the term spoiler, so if you didn't watch (which you shouldn't), stop reading.
The writers of this show have made it clear with this episode that they do not give a *beep* about continuity, logic or most of all CHARACTER. Every character in this episode acted nothing like themselves, and their every action served plot. They didn't do what they would do, they did what the writers NEEDED THEM TO DO.
Let's start with Sylar. Noah Bennet says stay back, he does. WTF!?!?! Sylar could tare Bennet apart in a second, yet he doesn't because...the writers don't want him to. He starts to question why he kills...blames the 'hunger'...yet not so long ago, in season 1 when things made sense, he proclaimed he was doing it because he deserved the powers and others were too weak to deserve them. And of course the worst insult yet...in the preview for next weak, the show's main villain...IS IN A *BEEP* APRON, COOKING, AND BABYING MR. MUGGLES!!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?!?!
The writers expect us to swallow that Sylar suddenly becomes 'one of the good guys' because Mama Petrelli says he's his mother? I understand the moral ambiguity that should be going on here, with villains acting like heroes and heroes like villains, but what they've done with Sylar is completely unbelievable and an insult to the audience's intelligence.
Oh and HRG. He wants to kill Sylar, the man who mind-*beep* his daughter, but he partnered up with him...just because. I don't buy it. Not for one second.
Oh wait, and let's check this out people. The whole arc of this season is supposed to be about villains. And they have already been caught. Yeah, they caused some real mayhem (NOT). These villains were stupid, 2D, useless, and stupid (I can shoot flames so I'm gonna burn these people and waste time). They weren't cunning and didn't pose a threat in the slightest.
And Hiro keeps acting like a complete moron. Opening the safe 'because I'm bored and I want an adventure!' and now running around like a childish infant, clumsily executing his plans. We are supposed to believe a man who has twice saved the world, lost the love of his life, and his father, is this immature? Give me a break...
And speaking of losing loved ones...Hiro and Peter...they just don't give a *beep* about their dead girlfriends. They're perfectly okay with it.
Only interesting part of this episode: Traci went to see Dr. Zimmerman, and he confessed that he created her. That was kinda cool.
Okay I'm done. I might be done watching this show too as a matter of fact.
