    Damn that was a good episode. Heck of a cliffhanger too..
    The Haitian guy seems like a good guy, letting Claire keep her memory and all. But I kinda still feel bad for her since now she knows her father is doing some shady stuff and she 'lost' her friend Zach, he seemed like a cool guy too.. =[
    Hiro, Ando, and Isaac teamed up.. should be very interesting..
    And poor Peter.. I feel so bad for the guy... Can't wait till January!

    This was looking to be such a happy episode, what with DL and Nikki making up and Sylar being caught and the budding romance between Claire and Peter, and Issac being able to paint without drugs.

    I also love hoe he turns to his latino accent when saying Hiro's name. He sounds more Japanese than Hiro and Ando, hah.

    then Eden died. Poor Eden. I liked her. Her death, while unexpected, was handled a little better than the waitress. It was still kinda stupid. How come Sylar was able to resist her? And smash the crystal, too? Because the Haitian wasn't there? Maybe people can resist Eden when they know what may happen? Well, not that we'll ever find out.

    And Hiro battles a dinosaur! lol, "I really need to get that sword." I wonder if that means he'll travel to the past to battle dinosaurs, or maybe someone will bring the dinosaurs here. Or maybe Issac was just painting unrelated stuff.

    I liked Peter's dream sequences, or whatever they were. The series is taking a Christmas break or something, right? Aw... it was a hell of a cliffhanger, for us to wait a month or so....

    I just thought Sylar could resist Eden because of his power. From what I can tell, his power is to be able to perceive the nature of things and how they function. So wouldn't it be reasonable that once he realizese how Eden's power works he'd be able to counter act it? Thats my reasoning for it anyway. I also thought her death was kind of sad because I liked her too.

    Also, regarding the Peter dream sequence thing. What the heck triggered something like that? It seemed so out of the blue, with no warning whatsoever, besides the slight cough he had. My theory on the whole New York explosion thing is that Peter some how comes into contact with Ted the Nuclear power guy and absorbs some of his ability. Then, when he Peter absorbs Teds power, he won't be able to control it and then explodes.

    Looking forward to January. (Man that seems like a long way off)

    I don't know about the cough, but Peter having a dream about a future event is not out of the blue, he's done it quite a few times already... Mainly in the first episode when he was thinking he could fly.

    I may be reading too much into it, but during that dream sequence nathan had a wierd look on his face as he approached peter. He wasn't scared like the rest, or worried, or even sad like hiro and ando. He seemed to have this wierd look of determination on his face. Not the mention that he was the only one going towards peter while everyone else was running away, and as i said, he didn't look too worried about his brother.

    Think maybe nathan has something to do with peter going nuclear?

    If we assume that they both have powers, Niki's power might be something like Sylar's. She might be able to absorb other heroes' powers and consciousness. And since she hasn't learnt how to control her power Jessica gets the upper hand in some situations.

    Another more probable theory is that the powers are all Niki's and she/her sunconsious manifested them in the form of Jessica.

    Regarding Linderman:
    If he is a hero he must have some awesome power of hell from doom. Like being able to kill with a stare or giving other people powers or making them stronger.

    We also know that he buys Isaac's paintings. Which probably means that he know that Isaac can predict the future. He possibly bought the painting of dead Peter to keep him alive so that he would destroy NY.

    He collects objects with the "godsend" symbol or whatever Ando called it.

    He wanted Nathan to become mayor of NY.

    About Niki and Jessica. So, even if a real Jessica did exist, maybe the Jessica we are seeing inside Niki is simply part of a psychological disorder; she having multiple personalities herself, instead of Jessica actually being inside Niki. And as you say, her powers are simply manifested when she goes Jessica Mode. That's not to say, that she can't learn how to use the powers by herself later on. I just doubt that the dead Jessica, who seems to have good understanding and control of the powers, would allowed to be killed by her father if she actually possessed the super human strength at the time.

    About Linderman, I'm pretty sure that he lent money to Niki and that's why she was in debt in the first episode. The goons she killed were Linderman's goons.

    A pretty good setup episode, but if the next ep isn't really action packed it'll mess up the flow, but they have plenty to run on. Claire's Firestarter mom, Her Dad's likely suspicion of the Hatiian (I think he recognzed the chimes), Peter's training, Hiro's Dad (SU-FUCKING-LU!), Parkman's baby (not all that interesting unless it's the anti-christ child or something) and Michah's grand theft ATM, which is definately a crime and he was probably on camera while doing it.

    Was he even tall enough to be to caught on camera?

    That ATM looked pretty old-school to me.

    And Hiro needs a pair of balls, he's acting all girly.

    The discussion we are having is the result of a plot device (or is it called plot hole?) and you all know it. Unless they reveal some big thing like them being brothers or lovers it will remain as such.

    He could have at least crippled him in some way. Just leaving him (kind of) unharmed is stupid. Sylar isn't really a bushido kind of guy anyway.
