[QUOTE="Merkuri, post: 4592436, member: 41321"] [I](By the way, spoilers aplenty in this post and I ain't bothering to cover them up. I'm assuming that if you're this far through this thread that you've seen the episode already.)[/I] I feel almost cheated by this season. It was enjoyable, but I feel like they set up a lot of prophesies and we saw not one of them come true. Not even a little. I was waiting to see little hints or signs or warnings that we were coming up on the future that everyone wanted to prevent, but we didn't even get close. I got a little excited when Peter got slashed across the face, thinking "scar!" but then I realized it was in the wrong place. It's like they prevented that future so early in the season that the rest of it wasn't even worth going through. I'm hoping that maybe they'll pull some of that forward into next season, but doubt it. The first season (by far the best - they could've ended it there and I would've been happy) felt very circular. It was complete. I saw the ending coming from a mile away (Peter exploding and Nathan carrying him up to where he couldn't hurt anyone) but felt... I guess the best word would be "fulfilled" to see it come through. Nothing like that in this season. It's like they didn't even make an effort to close the loop this time - like there was no thought for the ending when they started writing the beginning. Regarding Ando's powers: I will bet money that in the next season we see Hiro being jealous of Ando having powers. It's a complete turnaround for the duo, with Hiro powerless and Ando powered-up. That's bound to come up at some point, at least once. Regarding future use of the formula: The catalyst seems to be gone. I doubt that even if Hiro hadn't torn up the formula (and somebody get a lighter, please! tearing up a piece of paper does not make it unreadable) that it could be used again simple because the catalyst died in Pa Patrelli. Oh, and about Peter getting his powers back and them being reset... did anyone else notice that at the end of the episode when Nathan and Peter were talking in the forest (or wherever that was) that Peter's cheek wound was no longer visible? Was that just the lighting, or did he heal it? Just out of curiosity... why does everybody keep referring to Noah Bennet as HRG? It's been a very long time since he's been the mysterious man in the horn-rimmed glasses. It actually took me a while reading these threads to figure out that HRG=Noah. [/QUOTE]
