[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 4682240, member: 20741"] A disturbing thought came to me last night, thinking about the show and where this is all going. Bennett's comment on how Nathan's 30 second spiel to the President changed 20 years of secrecy and how that 30 second event could not now be undone.... Oh really? Is that where all of this is going....again? Because how else do the writers get us out of this plot arc smoothly? Right now, I don't see how that happens. It looks to me that we have the government chasing Heroes, and that's pretty much it for the rest of this show. Barring mind control of the President or some similar plot device which radically changes policy - I think this policy carries on now for a good long time. Not an easy plot arc to end or resolve without extreme intervention. But if undoing that thirty second conversation would serve - who says that the writers can't undo it? That's pretty much what this series has been about from the get-go - undoing and reshaping the future via prophecy and time travel. We still have Ando and Hiro's scene from the beginning of the third season to deal with - a scene in which the issue of the formula has not been wholly resolved and in which Hiro had a power of some kind (we know this as Ando's red charge up lightning power had an effect on Hiro when it zapped him). The end of Villains did not resolve all plot arcs. My point: that plot arc between Hiro and Ando which began in Villains has yet to end. And Hiro WILL get his powers back. So.... are we destined for a bit of time travelling to extricate the series from the current plot arc in Fugitives? Are we dstined to have Hiro make all this go away and prevent Nathan from telling all of this to "President Worf"?? Are we watching a "dream season"? [/QUOTE]
