[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 3849651, member: 20741"] No. The feedback was not "intentional", in the sense that he could decide whether ESP would cause feedback or not. However, the feedback [I]was[/I] certainly a known and predictable consequence of simultaneous ESP use and Maury clearly knew this (which means there is probably at least one other person with Maury's power other than Matt - as it is likely that Maury knew about feedback from past experience. We know that one other person who is a telepath - at the least - is Peter Petrelli. Whether there is another telepath other than Peter, Maury and Matt is unclear at this time). The "trick" was to cause the feedback to occur so that MAtt would no longer attempt to read his mind at all. Maury then unfolds his quick little escape plan and off he goes. The viewers know that this feedback will manifest when ESP is used simultaneously between target minds at the same time. We saw this phenomenon of painful feedback between Matt and Peter in season #1 after Homecoming when Matt interogates Peter. Matt's Father did not lie about the ability. It clearly [I]does[/I] become "so much more" when a Hero's telepathic power is mastered. But Maury is a master telepath - and Matt isn't ...yet. Matt had not projected before his "breakthrough" with Nathan. This was a key discovery by Matt and will - I predict - lead him to a new path of development of his power and to the rescue of Molly from the nightmare she is trapped in. The fact that Maury would do this to his own son is quite a remarkable step for a villain to take. For all he knew - Nathan could have killed Matt. Maury didn't care. Maury Parkman is a bastard who is going to get killed. Who will eventually kill him and serve him up his just desserts remains to be seen - but I think it will be Maya. [/QUOTE]
