I can’t remember…were Mohinder and his sister twins? If not, what’s the age gap? Is there any indication the Mohinder’s parent concieved him hoping he could cure his sister? (like those parents who have another child hoping for bone marrow match for the first one)

Mohinder told Molly in S1 that he was indeed conceived in the hope of saving his sister in this fashion but that she died before he was born.
Thanks! I totally couldn’t remember.

And didn’t somebody a few episode threads ago complain that Matt’s wife’s kid had to be Matt’s, based on the 5-years-later future timeline?
[/QUOTE]
I mentioned that he had an offspring in that future timeline and that the offspring was apparently powered, but there’s no way to know whether that kid is the one currently gestating or another one.
So, who are some characters who have NOT met by this time? I’m not referring to the new ones from this season like [del]Smallv[/del] West and the Wonders but those from last season.
And the old “Stock Company scientist: Japanese” helping Ando read the documents- who do you suppose he works for? It’s highly doubtful that he coincidentally stopped being able to read just as they were about to fight White Beard (speaking of, how hard would that be? True he has an army, but Hiro could stop time, go in, remove him, take him hostage, and come back with a sword at his throat.)
I also think that Hiro is going to be his own ancestor. Of course last season I thought it would be revealed that he had a baby with the waitress during his alternate timeline relationship with her (yes, I know she had a tumor, but this is TV).

I think it was implied Ando’s scientist buddy works for Hiro’s father’s company, just like Ando and Hiro.
Also, Hiro can’t just stop time because Kensei has to be the hero.

I believe everyone from last season was at Kirby Plaza so they’ve all “met.” There wasn’t a lot of interaction between, say, Nathan and Micah, but they’ve all at least seen each other.
you have a very loose definition of met…

No, Mohinder carries the antibodies against the virus that’s affecting the heroes. The virus is what blocks their abilities. A dose of his blood would bring the abilities back in an infected person.
As for Matt, in his hallucination he tells his ex-wife that she had told him the baby wasn’t his. She counters that he can read minds and knew she was lying. Implied pretty strongly to me that the baby is his and he’s feeling guilty.

Thanks for the correction.

See, I’m not convinced that Papa Parkman is capital-E Evil yet. As has been mentioned in a couple of previous threads, the last he knew Molly was Company Property so putting the whammy on her is defensible if he’s on the run. Now suddenly after 25 years his son shows up out of nowhere with some guy Papa Parkman doesn’t know, asking about the whammy that he’d put on the Company Property. Again, not at all unreasonable for him to whammy them and escape. Papa parkman is petty and small, sure, but he’s not necessarily EVIL.
[/QUOTE]
The real question is this: if Parkman’s dad got into a fight with Michael Larson, who would win?
Poll: Who has the worst Irish accent, the Yank, the English guy, or the English chick?

I couldn’t tell that the Yank was even trying to sound Irish.
The first couple episodes he tried but by this one he’d apparently given up.
Well, not like he needed to stay in practice for next episode or anything.

The thing that bothers me the most is that they all have different irish accents, even though they’re supposedly family, or as close as family that I assume they grew up together.

Let’s just pretend it’s somebody’s superpower whom we haven’t seen yet. Since Maya and Alehandro and everybody else they met in Mexico also had accents from all over Latin America. And we presume that the twins grew up together, too.

People have raised the same criticism about the Wonder Twins, complaining that they have different accents. The thing is, in America we don’t know from different accents. Spanish is ferrin and it all sounds the same to us. Same goes for Mick (I’m a Mick, I’m allowed).
Now, if you present us with a show made outside the US that presents various members of a close family speaking with a Georgia drawl, a Boston Brahmin accent and a Texas twang, that would be something to complain about.

The characters have names. You know the names. Use them.

No, but the two British actors should know better, and have no reasonable excuse, in my opinion.
