And I think the situation with Hiro's father was abrupt was because of poor writing, not totally unseen plotting on the part of Hiro father.No sign was presented to clue the audience in to plotting on the part of Mr. Nakamura, nor to the possession of super powers by Mr. Nakamura or Kimiko. Compared that to the introduction of Meredith, who while on the phone with Claire – out of Claire sight but before the audience – lit a cigarette with her pyrokenetic powers. Then she calls Michael – out of Claire sight but before the audience – revealing him to be Claire’s father.Nothing like that happened with Mr. Nakamura or Kimiko. They never demonstrated any powers, regardless of whether or not Hiro was around, and they never engaged in any plotting while Hiro was not around.This may be changed later. We may see Mr. Nakamura, Kimiko or both, possess powers of some kind. But to date they just waltzed on and then off stage.   And I think Sylar’s success was due to gullibility on the part of Mrs. Bennett, not that Sylar used The Voice. He was just being sinister.</blockquote>
