As for Simone being a hero, where does it say that she has to have abilities just because she is prominent?  She could easily be for character development.  She's the skeptic.  The girlfriend.  The motivation in as much as two people with abilites care for her.  That's all that's necessary.  I like the fact that she is an ordinary person trying to come to terms with this.  Heroes is, to me, the time before XMen.  Before the paranoia.  Before we get the tights.  These are just people.  And they are surrounded by other people who are just people.  The character of Simone would be so rich and fulfilling if they keep her role as such.  But we could find out she has abilities.  I just don't happen to think she does.  I think we would've seen more tangible proof that she has abilities.  All the characters with abilities have shown us something.Oh yeah.  I've been seeing that a lot to.  It'll be interesting to see if it's just the calling card of Sylar or something more.Yeah.  I was and still am suspicious of her.  I think she could be working for Claire's dad and is just playing dumb to both Mohinder and his dad.  Or she could be a red herring and be completely innocent.  Either way would be cool to me really.I really like this show too.  I like how it's before we get the prejudices and all we have is that transition time of when no one knows and the moment before everyone knows.  I like this first great threat.  And how it might not even be the first great threat.  I have this feeling that the nuke might be just a side thing and the real threat will come from somewhere else.  Not the first time something like that has happened.  All in all this show is cool.  Heck, Sylar could be the red herring and the nuke be the end all.  Either way, it's all good.</blockquote>
