Just seen this posted. Hope it is new



Shadowrun
Just watched it before I came here, it kind of sucks that it was so short, I'm guessing it's only going to be thirty minuets in total and not an hour. Anyway, I can't wait to see that guy make it to the show, his ability is my second favority power ever.

Not yet, but I have taken down a full description/transcript and posted it at Heroes-Clues. I have also copied it below:

QUOTE
Postman Echo De Mille is shown running down a street, then between two houses. He reaches a dead end and turns around to face an angry dog.

Echo [to barking dog]
: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey. You're not bothered by the cliche of this: you being a dog, me being a mailman? It doesn't have to be like this. You could just roll over.. I could scratch you belly... [dog continues barking] Look, you had your chance. Now back off! I said BACK OFF!"

He speaks the last word using his sonic scream power, which results in the dog running away whimpering.

Echo [to retreating dog]
: "Next time, don't mess with the mailman."

He bends down to pick up his mailbag, when two men approach him. One is in a suit, the other is in a tank-top and jeans and appears to be making serpentine movements.

Agent in suit (Agent Howard)
: "That's a nifty little trick you've got there."

Echo [recovering his bag and trying to walk away]: "Excuse me. I'm running late."

Agent Howard: "My associate and I have been looking for you, Mr. DeMille."

Echo: "How do know my name?"

Agent Howard
: "We work for a company that helps people like you."

Echo: "What do you mean, 'people like me'?"

Agent Howard: "You have an extraordinary ability. We're going to teach you how to use it."

Echo [laughs]: "You've got the wrong guy."

The snakelike agent (NBC site calls him The Constrictor) wraps his arms tightly around Echo.

Echo
: "Get your hands off me!"

Agent Howard: "My friend here is what we call a 'constrictor'. You keep struggling -- he'll keep squeezing."

Echo uses his sonic scream. Both agents fall to the ground, causing The Constrictor to release him. Blood rushes from Agent Howard's ears as he tries to raise his gun.

Echo screams again and runs away as Agent Howard collapses.

The Constrictor crawls over, picks up the gun, and fires two shots toward Echo. He then quickly stands up, pulls out a phone, and dials. Agent Howard is on the ground, bleeding from the head and shaking. The Constrictor shoots him, and his body is still.

The Constrictor [on the phone]
: "Bob, Howard's dead. ... Worse than we thought. ... Ok."

The Constrictor hangs up the phone, and looks at an image on the screen of Echo embracing a woman.

The Constrictor
: "It's a shame, she's so pretty."

The Constrictor walks away from Agent Howard's body, and the video ends with the HEROES eclipse, followed by credits.

Finally found a youtube version.

The Constrictor is creepy.

It was okay. I was expecting it to be a couple minutes longer.

And I didn't like the way they displayed the Constrictor's power. The wriggling around made him look silly and the attack itself looked like he was giving Echo one massive bear hug laugh.gif

Nonetheless I'm looking forward to the next webisode.

Yeah, he did look a tad silly. It also looks like the writers may be running out of ideas for new powers. So they've started taking animal abilitys and use them as a power. I'm pretty sure they're has to be better animal abilitys than constriction, not that I can think of many though.

Or they could just be saving up the good abilities for the real show wink.gif
