I enjoyed this episode a lot. considering the latest episodes, at least we had emotion coming from a character we didn't see before, and Hiro (Masi Oka). I was moved by it...
My biggest problem with the episode: Arthur, how the hell did he know when to take the catalyst?, why didn't he do it before?
He getting kill by Peter/Sylar I have no problem with, what could he do if the haitian was there? (and if he even knew the Haitian was there as well?) escape before Peter and the Haitian entered the building?
everything else was just fine

He could have at least tried to stop the Haitian from coming into use.

Yeah If I was Arthur, I would have made killing the Haitian one of my top priorities after healing through Adam Monroe.
Still, what the hell was Arthur Petrelli's main goal all along?

Something to do with giving everyone powers (for no reason) and making Nathan president (you know, the one he was trying to kill a year back, even though Arthur apparently still wanted to destroy New York in order to... err...).
All part of the issues we have here as the idea of a continuous plot to get drawn into has stopped existing. For all its faults, season 2 did actually have a coherent pllot.
Heroes has often suffered form this problem. 'Save the Cheerleader, save the world' actually doesn;t make much sense when looked at in detail; I'm not actually at all sure why she had to be saved, looking at the whole season in context. They said it was to stop Sylar regenerating but that made bugger all difference seeing as it was Peter that blew up. In fact, all the efforts of everyone were pretty much for nought- all that happened in the end was that, basically, Peter was moved somewhere else, and I am unsure we needed a whole series to build up to that. Also see my comments about how much zero sense the 'Hiro views the future' bit introdcued intot he storyline in... some other thread somewhere. But it was at least dramatic and the Sylar confrotnation was worthwhiile.
So yes, Heroes gets very focusssd on shocks in each episode at the cost of maintaining coherency, which is really starting to show now.

I think Arthur's plan revolves around building a super human army under his leadership... but he's kinda not around for that.
