[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 3888400, member: 710"] I liked this episode. A couple of points that were brought up: 1) Nuclear Explosions & EMPs: I don't know enough about nukes to say if there always has to be an EMP. If Peter just created a lot of radiation instead of a "classical" nuclear explosion, this might explain the lack of the electro magnetic pulse. There are definitely some differences between a real nuclear explosion and Peters explosion. (A normal nuke would probably leave a lot of radioactive material behind, but Peters explosion did not) 2) Isaacs Painting: It is true that we know the events depicted in his paintings can be averted. But not all of them are, and people have to do something to avoid it (and usually they do it in reaction to the paintings). Sometimes, there are still costs associated with preventing the events. (DL and Nathan getting seriously injured, the other Chearleader getting killed by Sylar instead of Claire). The paintings are still interesting, and they seem a nice way to motivate people. Some questions: Why doesn't the company want Adam to use his blood to help others? Or was that just a lie he invented, and he himself refused to use the blood for the company, at least not on their terms? Is it possible that Adam did find Hiro as a young child, and his attack on Hiro (or Hiros friends) forced the Company to remove him from his position and put him into his cell? [/QUOTE]
