A whole season of build-up, which was brilliantly done, leads to a choke-hold, a couple of punches, and a stabbing. Brilliant....

It honestly reminded me of DS9 when they pretty much admitted they were running low on money one season after blowing all their money earlier on (Season 5 or 6?) and had to "make do" with what they could afford. "Quick! How can we end this with $50,000 in CGI budget left?! Masi Oka - hey you were with ILM right? How about a side gig?"
I was expecting a bit of a running battle vs the Mortal Kombat static showdown betwen Peter and Sylar which didn't have to be so expensive. While the past 3 episodes were so well written, this just had the feeling of something being hastily thrown together.
(I'll still watch next season of course)
