The thing is, Linderman has the explosion planned for the day after Nathan is elected into Congress. I don't think Nathan and ted will work together, esecially with Ted going after the 'mainframe' of the tracking system. According to the write ups I've read, both Ted and Peter are trying to leave NYC. How Ted finds out about the explosion,I don't know.

What I want to know is how Micah plays into this. The fact that Linderman knows almost everything helps add to the idea that he's leading the Company, but I still think it might not be him. But that's me.

Oh, and according to Kring, we get at least one new main character next season. It's a girl named Sparrow Redhouse I believe. Supposedlt, she's vital to the storyline. She's Indian (Native American for those technical and PC). I'm guessing if this is true, then there's alot of folklore about people with powers.

Linderman's definitely either heading the Company or he's one of the heads. Remember the chick who casts illusions was the one that grabbed Micah after all.

Anyone else think that all of the Heroes heading for NY at once is bad thing? Didn't crazy English invisible man say that Peter was going to explode from absorbing too many powers he can't control? Having every superpowered character in one city would be a good way for that to happen.

That was what Peter saw in his vision of the future. Of course, I don't think it'll end the way Peter saw it end. If anything, I think Linderman will think of some way of forcing Peter to loose control of the powers he has. Linderman knows that Isaac predicted that Peter would cause the explosion, but I don't think Linderman is planning on leaving anything to chance with this explosion after all.

Yeah, but he's already absorbed most of their abilities...he doesn't need to re-absorb their powers, as is proved by him being able to utilize those abilities whenever he wants.

I know that, but what happens when he ends up absorbing Jessica's craziness? Or radiation man's (who's name I forget) explosions? Powers that cannot be controlled, even by the people who were born with them?

Ted can control his radiation powers just fine.

He just can't control his temper.

Like Peter's got so much self control. He's cracked under pressure before and nobody even knows what powers Ted has. Where the hell did that EMP come from? Peter could get upset and involuntarily release a power he didn't even know he had. In fact, I kind of wonder why that hasn't happened yet. Shouldn't he have super-hearing? How come he's not affected by it like the original super-hearer and Sylar were?

Well, I don't remember him using his powers on accident yet. Actually, that's not true, because I guess his flying and healing the first time was accidental.

But I just guess if he doesn't realize he has super-hearing then maybe he hasn't "activated" it yet. I mean, he hasn't melted any toasters either.

I think Peter has to realize it to fully access a power. Why hasn't he used his ice or dematerializing powers? I don't think Peter knows he has those. And then we could ask, why hasn't he used Sylar's original power? To see how things work?
Peter probably hasn't shown those because he isn't aware of it.

And Ted's power is radiation manipilation. Someone correct me here, but I'm pretty positive an EMP is sort of a side effect of nuclear explosions. Or fision.
 
Re: Heroes *Spoilers*

Peter has to "visualize" someone to use their powers, remeber? And because he cannot visualize people that only Sylar has met, he cannot use their powers. That simple.

Wait, what? Ice powers? Where'd those come from? And yeah, it seems like after the initial "surges" of power, Peter is only using powers he knows he has. He's also usually using them only one at a time, probably because he's not as experienced as Sylar.

That could also be it. Good thinking, Wade.

He got TK from Sylar though, and he never met that first guy Sylar killed.

And he certainly didn't know his brother could fly or Claire could heal, though he had met them.

Wait, you're on to something. Peter doesn't visualize, but has to remember how he felt when he met them. Which.....wait, Sylar's main power isn't telekinesis. So why can Peter use that? Unless he met the guy who had it before?

Peter should've absorbed the intuitive aptitude of Sylar's......huh. Unless, Peter has to 'know' what they can do. Maybe his power was 'confused' because during their first meeting, Sylar used tlelkinesis.

That could be, but it still doesn't explain his flying and healing for the first time.

Sylar froze that dude in episode 2, when we first see Parkman. Plus, he's used it in the graphic novels, and it is a confirmed power by the writers.
Also, he's supposed to be using it in the next 2 shows.

Those weren't on purpose, they activated at random. Remember, he also used Isaac's ability to sketch the future while not thinking about Isaac. We're talking about Peter activating powers on purpose.

actually, i think issac only sees the future, but paints it so he can relay his message.

Well, Sylar was painting it too. Albeit poorly.

Also, if his powers just activate at random like that, why WOULDN'T the super hearing, freezing, molecule manipulation, etc activate just as randomly?
