Heroes ***spoilers***

[Tage]

Have we seen the Haitian suppress anyone's power other than Matt? Since they're both mental powers, it might be the Haitian can only stop Matt. Or he's simply removing the memories of the thoughts Matt hears as soon as he gets them.

[Fellfrosch]

It has been suggested, though I do not believe it, that the Haitian negated Sylar's powers the first time they caught him. Other than that, though, all we've ever seen was Matt unable to read minds.

I think if the Haitian could actually negate powers, he would have been able to stop Ted from exploding.

Tonight's episode rocked. So many theories confirmed, as well as surprises. I about died laughing (okay, not really) when Linderman said he needed Micah—why didn't I figure that out long ago?! Subtle!

Can't wait for more.

[Tink]

I was just so happy to have a new episode to watch!!

One thing I thought was interesting: when Nathan was talking with Peter about how he didn't know what he would do if Peter died, Nathan seemed so sincere. But when he talked to Claire about how she would need to disappear to Paris, but then come back to be with her family, he didn't seem to believe it at all. I also wonder what Nathan is feeling. He now knows what it would be like to lose Peter. Is he willing to possibly sacrifice him? (Granted, Peter thinks he can survive the blast--but can he?)

Also, I was a little confused as to how Nathan could become President of the US by the time the bomb goes off when the city is suppose to blow up within a few weeks. (Maybe I'm not understanding the timeline of it all. Or maybe we just don't know something. Hmm.)

Yay for Heroes!

You need to pay more attention to Linderman. He said Nathan would get elected to Congress before the bomb goes off, then *after* the bomb Nathan would use the unifying effect of the disaster to propel him higher and higher up the leadership chain. Supposedly, then, the picture of him in the White House would still be a few years down the road. It's vaguely similar to Rudy Giuliani's career since 9/11.

Anyway, I'm just getting more and more excited as Heroes goes on. I'm not sure what they're doing by leading us down this "what if the bomb really does go off" path, but I hope it's as interesting as it sounds.

And poor Isaac! He took his death so well, too. Plus I still maintain my theory that both Peter and Sylar are too powerful to live through the season, so... maybe Peter does explode. Personally though I'm betting on the bomb actually being Ted.

[Tink]

I loved the fight between Peter and Sylar. It was so cool to finally have someone fight him that really had a chance. I was a little annoyed that Peter didn't seem to be picking up on Sylar's abilities--telekinesis and what not. Then Peter could have pushed back against the glass when Sylar was holding the glass in the air.

But I loved the look on Sylar's face when Peter began to heal himself and then went invisible. Sylar's just so annoying.

I also loved Claire getting to meet her father and finding out that Peter was her uncle. I figured she'd be the one to find the glass and pull it out. That was a cool scene.

My new theory after last nights episode is that Sylar will be the bomb. Sylar dies somehow, so I'm thinking he will kill Ted and then end up exploding in New York.

Peter has to live through this somehow. Remember that future Hiro seemed to know Peter in the future.

Pssst, Tink! I love your icon!

I'm confused that Ookla says he should have "gotten" the Linderman-Micah thing earlier. What was there to get? I haven't seen any hints or connections at all before today, so if you've got a theory lay it on me.

Yes, this confused me. Please explain.

[Peter Ahlstrom]

Well, it hasn't been revealed yet per se, so this may be a spoiler for a future episode: That Linderman would use Micah [hide]to rig the election. We knew Linderman knew about Niki's powers, so he had good reason to know about her whole family, and we knew that Nathan would somehow win the election and Linderman wanted him to. How is a mobster going to win someone an election? Election fraud should have been the obvious answer, but I didn't see it before. Many electronic voting machines are made by companies that also make ATMs, and we've already seen Micah hack an ATM. The clues were there.[/hide]

[stacer]

Mmm, yes, I can see it. It was at the edge of my consciousness that it should have been obvious, but I couldn't figure it out.

[Tink]

Pssst, Tink! I love your icon!

Thanks. Me, too  .

ok, I just started ep 19 this morning, and I haven't finished it (linderman just told nikki/jessica he wanted to use micah... though I admit reading a bit of Peter's spoiler, and while I think that will happen, it seems he could also get the list out of Mohinder's computer still too ... I would imagine he has ways of learning about this kind of thing very easily)

But my big thing is this: I don't remember Nikki's man learning about Jessica being in charge. Did I just flake? I didn't miss an episode, no other story is missing any info that I can tell

[stacer]

It was at the end of the last episode. He found a picture of something that Niki had been able to get to him, which was a clue for him that Jessica was in charge. He pretended with her for a while, but finally confronted her, and she replied with "I can do Niki better than she can!" in that sugary-sweet voice.
