Do you mean Dwight? Me, I was quite horrified by the underwater people, though the guy with the shadow is the harshest one yet, imo. But I think the show definitely gets some credit for really making life hard for people with powers, and in thoughtful ways, rather than the standard X-mennish oh-woe-is-me, I-can-fly thing.
I'm on to the third season now, and thats one of the things that bugs me about Duke even more - he quite often managed to make a conscious,deliberate, effective use of his powers with no particular side effects. What the hell? Even if, strictly speaking, a lot of people probably could, they never do. The story never allows for it - except for Duke. Ugh, he's just shy of being a Gary Stu and it's the major sore note of the show for me.
The women bug me so much - I was really expecting Original-Audrey to stick around, that could have been hilarious and interesting both, but no. Now I quite like Jordan (not so much the psychiatrist chick, but ok) and am just waiting for her horrible and inevitable death (or something worse,the way this show goes.)
