Heroes Season 1(#9)---11/20/06-'Homecoming'

[Taelorn76]

For every small flash of Sylar's face we got, I get thinking ...."That looks alot like Peter!"

That's what I kept saying as well. But in the previews for next weeks show you see a clearer profile of Sylar introducing himself to Mohinder's father, he says "I'm Sylar"

 

[dravot]

Well, I'm actually moving onto the theory that Sylar is Nathan, and that Nathan's flying is simply one aspect of his true power, teleknesis. Didn't Sylar fly away after Matt shot him?

Nathan had access to Isaak's paintings, got a look at the last piece and tried to destroy it so Pete can't head him off. It didn't work so they have a brotehr-vs-brother confrontation.

But Nathan is in New York when Charlie the waitress dies. I don't see him flying from Texas to New York, finding the painting, and then going back to Texas.

 

[Felon]

Y'know, this was a good episode, but that dialogue needs work. That scene with Claire and Zach in her bedroom discussing self-esteem was awful.

 

[Taelorn76]

But if they are the same persons, why did Sylar forget who Claire was?
On the other hand - why would Peter go mad and go around killing people - probably because he got mad and maybe lost his memory in the process.
Still, seems like a stretch. But one never knows.

Or maybe Claire's dad get's him out of jail and the hatian guy wipes his mind.


Or better yet at some point he got near Niki and absorbed her split personality. And the reason he has more names on his map is because he absorbed Hiro's time bending and went back to find these supers.

Looks like Sylar just likes head-kills. The finger-as-a-knife thing was pretty creepy. I'm thinking that it's mostly Sylar's MO because that's the one thing that's a threat to Claire-bear.

I called it last week. he used a Psi-Blade

But Nathan is in New York when Charlie the waitress dies. I don't see him flying from Texas to New York, finding the painting, and then going back to Texas.

Well, first off, we don't know where exactly Nathan is when Charlie dies. He's not in that episode.

Secondly, if a guy can fly, that pretty much explains being in one city one day and another city the next.

 

[Taelorn76]

How would they be the same person now? Sylar was captured by the rogue mutant force and Peter captured by the police. They are played by two different actors. They both appear in the same shot and a witness sees both of them. The previews for next week hint at sylar's origins. I think this theory is shot to heck in this episode.

I am starting to think it is shot as well, but it could be the same Peter from two different times.

But Nathan is in New York when Charlie the waitress dies. I don't see him flying from Texas to New York, finding the painting, and then going back to Texas.

Remember there was a sonic boom when he escaped from Claire's dad. The only other thing I see to disprove this theory, is that when Mohinder and Eve went to Sylar's apartment Nathan's picture was on the map. I think that may have been the only picture. Soo why would he have a picture of himself?

He won't have the power long enough to keep the split personality, or Hiro's time-bending.

The interaction of Peter and Niki/Jessica will be fascinating though.

 

[Sir Brennen]

How come no one's mentioned Isaac's "useless" painting yet? It looks like a Human-Torch type figure flying at the viewer. Sylar controlling Radioactive Guy's power, maybe?
