[QUOTE="DonTadow, post: 3548438, member: 22622"] I"m basing my opinion on the actual tactical knowledge of the basic human person. This is the basic flaw in this argument. It has only been a few months. We never saw ONE single training montage with any of them and their powers. There was some training with Peter, but not any of them. YOu're thinking of this as 9 months of training because the show was on for nine months, but, and someone can correct me, isnt the timeline of the show about 3 months (maybe less). They weren't waiting turns, they were waiting for someone else to do something or waiting for a chance for them to do something. They are not a tactical team. They aren't even a team. I could very well see why it would take someone a minute to digest A. should i help and B. what should I do. YOu see this everyday. Google 91 year old man carjacking Detroit and see what i am talking about. People always say "what i would have done" but in the situation you're a different person without the training of what to do. No ones inserting unseen scenes. I"m talking about logic. What is the more likely thought. This is only an hour show. The producers can't put every basic assumption on the screen. If you see HG at the paperfactory during one scene and at home another, its safe to assume he drove there. Do you need that scene to figure it out? Same here, we obviously see that Parkman doesn't know about Sylars powers. We are safe to assume that Parkman has not figured out that he cant' shoot sylar (considering this is the third time he's done it). Because of the likelihood of a bullet missing at long distances and other intangibles, its more logical for a non-informed about sylar individual to believe there was some other reason, other than telekinesis, why the bullet did not hit sylar. Who is thinking "this guy has telkenetics". Only the tv watcher who knows that. Why would they have a long talk about sylar. What catalyst would have brought in on. The evidence states that parkman does not know much about sylar, so the long talk is illogical. Your logic stream is flawed because of a lack of this catalyst. Why would HG discuss the superpowers of Sylar and everyone else when it has nothing to do with their immiediate mission. The shield comes on the following day an hour later. This isn't a crime drama or forensic show. We've seen Sylar stop bullets 3 different ways now. two of which would A. keep the bullets with him. B. send the bullets flying in other directions. Because this evidience was never brought up, and it would be important, we can assume there was no hardcore evidence that parkman's bullets missed or hit. WAsn't there blood at the first scene? That's all I need to know that I didn't get a good shot. Parkman's not a marksman, elite supercop, trained swat officier. He is a beat cop. For the record, Nikki was so super strong that she could rip a parking meter out and hit someone with it. She was not strong enough to simply lift her dying husband and run to a hospital.[/QUOTE] Nicki's from Las Vegas, where is the hospital. This is New York City. She'd need superspeed aswell. [/QUOTE]
