Just finished. Thought it was solid all the way around. Good Character development. Good use of Time Travel without resorting to Bill and Ted hijinks.
Minor complaint that they had a lot of exposition around 5's and Klaus' expanded powers, but nothing that really explained Diego's new ability. He seemed to just do it because he needed to.

Also Allison's powers really seem limited with her having to prefix those words before her powers work. She's basically only effective if people don't see her coming. Then again without that constraint she's would be Overpowered. I think if her powers worked on direct eye contact might be a good compromise.

Not a new power fam...

Diego's power has also been trajectory manipulation... Typically it's how he manipulates the knives he throws... but the final battle showed him manipulating the bullets shot at him. He just did it on a larger scale then normal.
They showed it during the opening moments in episode 1 too when the Soviets were shooting at him

Right, but you would think if he was fully aware of that power he would use it in his hand to hand combat as well. I just like a little setup before it seems new powers come out of nowhere. They set it up nicely for Klaus by having Ben hold him up and appear to levitate. They foreshadowed 5's time shift ability with his conversation with their Dad. Like I said it's just a minor nit pic.

I'd probably shift a couple around, but he got No. 1 right.

Some of my favorite season 2 quotes:

(Diego to Klaus) "If you don't go up there, I will BEAT you.... And not in the way that you like!"

(Klaus) "Is it just me, or did we all get sexier?"

(Allison to her husband) "I wish I could be here for the nervous breakdown that you so deserve."

(Klaus) "Allison has become very involved in local politics."

(Allison) "Klaus started a cult!"

(Secret society dude to Sir Reginald) "Looks like somebody's ready for a fight..."

(Five to Elliott) "Any closer and I will melt your brain."
