But did not have any issues with putting a bullet in him early? I just think he was so freaking afraid that Sylar could wake up before he did anything. I personally have seen tooooooo many movies where the bad guy wakes up just before the death blow, to trust my luck, that is why you have henchmen!

We don't know how long Mohinder was being beating by Sylar, nor do we know what was said to him in that time. Mohinder, was afraid, very afraid.

According to producer Greg Beeman, originally, Mohinder pushed him out the window, and Sylar managed to survive the fall with TK and get away, but that was cut for budget reasons.

If he gets constant powers just by being exposed to them, then he should have picked up super hearing from Sylar. And he'd sure notice that! Hey- and the quick learning/perfect memory trick that the waitress had.

Unless I'm remembering wrong, in this timeline, Sylar never kills adorable waitress because she dies of a brain tumor or something like that. So neither Sylar nor Peter would get her abilities.

Hiro learns he can't save her, and is thrown forward in time. She still is killed by Sylar though, since Hiro's buddy is still at the diner while they mourn.

Correct!

Linderman wants to nuke New York so that the world will huddle together in fear. What planet has he been living on for the last six and a half years? About a quarter of the world's population will celebrate and most of the rest won't care.

It won't be framed as a terrorist attack. It'll be framed as "the mutant threat among us". It's not the US getting hit with a suitcase nuke. It's one guy getting pissed off and taking out half a city by himself. And he looks just like everyone else.

But now we've got President Petrelli (and Linderman's shadow government), and we've got the technology to find, track, and neutralize these Threats to the Human Race(tm).

Linderman has no problem with the sacrifice of .07% of the world's population. I'm sure he'd be able to deal with the "maintenance & upkeep" on that as well.

 

[bodhi]

Oh good lord. Only on a D&D message board would we fault Mohinder for not taking out Sylar!

Kill the Bad Guy.
Loot the Body.
Repeat.

How's he 'sposed to level up otherwise?

 

[PhoenixDarkDirk]

I thought it was nice to get confirmation that Linderman runs the Company.

One more thought about the Peter/Sylar fight. Peter is invisible. Sylar telekinetically lifts up a bunch of broken glass. Now any 10 year old can see what's going to happen next... So, does Peter duck? Does he get behind some cover? No, he turns his back on Sylar. This is just beyond stupid. Way beyond.

Peter probably didn't tivo Heroes. He doesn't know about sylar's hearing power, thus peter thought he had the advantage. Peter had never failed with invisibility before.

Wait, I thought they were mourning her death because of the cancer, not death by Sylar.

Heavens, why should he call the cops with a dead body and a serial killer in his home? Nope drive up to a rich family's home and say "Hi, I'm a compleat stranger and I've got your dead son in my taxi. What do you wanna do with him?" Yeah, riiiight!

Because calling the cops pretty much ensures him either a ticket on the next plane back to India, or being thrown in a jail cell to rot for the murder of a prominant politician's brother.
It's the very, very last thing he should have done in that situation if he wants his freedom to act. He's very likely already a 'known troublemaker' since he's called the NYPD out to at least one wild goose chase, so he's already in their system with probably a half-dozen flags to his name by this point. They find him at a politically-sensitive murder scene and he can kiss sunlight goodbye.

He's not a complete stranger to Nathan; they've interacted at least twice I can think of.
