Hah! Did I not say Nathan would be one of the heros to bite the dust last week?? ::buffs fingernails:: 
Yeah, yeah, I know technically he’s not dead. But I have to say I miss my little naive, unspoiled Hiro. ::sniff::
Oooooh what if he had stuck Adam in the same COFFIN with his father? (I’m assuming he got him into the coffin while Adam was frozen in time, so this would have been easy enough.) Can you imagine Adam in a coffin forever with an increasingly decaying Mr. Sulu? Serve him right for killing the guy…
Plus he got to eliminate Claire’s biological father, effectively making him the ONLY candidate for that role (eventually, once he is able to rejoin his family).
I couldn’t help it! Sylar made me do it! Or maybe it was the other guy, I’m not sure–gingers have eldritch powers of persuasion!
In fact, Peter, Matt and Nathan, the only guys in the room when the virus was destroyed, have not used their powers since Peter did his little glowing hand thing. It struck me during Nathan’s speech that he was going to say “Look at me. I’m different. I can fly!” And then…Nothing.
SO maybe the virus did get out, or was mutated?
No, Matt got the reporters ready to listen. I think the implication was that he pushed them into paying attention and believing what Nathan was going to tell them.
Yeah, it looked like him.
Yep, I saw that as well. I was hoping it would leave a scar on his hand in that shape. Wouldv’e looked cool.
Also, since Nathan already received a blood transfusion from Adam, I wonder if he still has the healing ability? Is it permanent? If so, then he should be able to heal the bullet wounds without getting Peter’s or Claire’s blood.
Yeah, I wasn’t sure about that. Did we see him do his little head lean-y thing or was it off screen? He could have just used his position as a NYC cop in little Odessa to impress them.
And how come Nathan thought no-one would know who he was, I mean he was elected to congress 4 months ago. And then vanished into a hospital bed for four months. Wouldn’t the national media be covering the disappearance of a congressman?
Only MSNBC and a few locals turned up to the news conference. 
On a dumbness scale, Peter > Mohinder > Maya > Mrs. Bennet > Elle. Nobody is anywhere near Peter’s class in pure stupidity.
Mrs Bennet seems to have been cured of teh stupids, now that the Haitian is out of the picture. The others have no excuse.
It’s probably wore off some since the (month or so?) since he got the Adam top-up; now he’s only got enough left in him to heal shaving nicks and paper cuts.
Whenever Hiro uses his time travel ability I always think of the Seth Green line from the second Austin Powers movie:
“If you’ve got a time machine, why don’t you just go back and kill Austin Powers when he’s sitting on the crapper or something?”
Well exactly. Hiro could go back and prevent everything that has happened to set the events in motion that constitute the entire story. Then the show would not have existed.
Was Sylar supposed to have eaten Alejandro’s brain to get this power? I thought brain-eating didn’t work for him anymore (like with the shapeshifter)? Because Maya isn’t supposed to be able to stop once she’s started, right? IOW, convincing her to stop didn’t work in the past, it had to be someone who had the power to counteract her.
Maya recently developed control, in the same episode in which Sylar killed Alejandro. Sylar did not consume Alejandro’s brain and talked Maya down rather than absorbing/blocking the stinkeye.
One wonders, now that Sylar has his powers back, if he’ll gain Candice’s illusion power. I hope not.
He can start over by impersonating a ‘oh my god, he survived!!’ Nathan. Except that he can’t fly. Small flaw.
How would Hiro know that cutting off Adam’s head would’ve worked? Claire, Peter, Nathan, and the Company (presumably) know that’s a dead-dead – but we never saw Hiro experience anything that would’ve told him cutting off Adam’s head would’ve been successful.
Hiro knew Adam could probably grow back other limbs and organs. And, let’s face it, it’s not like a head is a vital organ in the Heroverse – just about nobody uses the damn thing, anyway. So better to be sure (and vengeful).
Adam was obviously the one doing the planning the whole way – witness his smirk as Peter gives himself a nosebleed trying to TK the door off its hinges. Peter was stupid in that he listened to Adam, but Adam’s plan was pretty smart – for Adam, not for Peter – because at the end, Peter was too exhausted to go into the vault with Adam.
Wouldn’t do to have your more-powerful patsy fresh and able to think clearly when you’re about to betray him and kill 93% of the world.
He shouldn’t. He didn’t have his own power when he killed her so theres no way he could have absorbed hers.
That would also explain why it took so long.
Did I imagine a “special effects” sound when Niki entered the burning building? Looked/Sounded to me like she had her D.L.'s power (hehe, could you imagine if their powers could be sexually transmitted?), but I’m probably totally making that up.
Hiro didn’t kill Adam because that would break the code. The Comic Book Superhero code, that is, which Hiro has been playing by since he discovered his powers. This is also why he is reluctant to use his powers to edit the past in his favor. Hiro is aware of his place in the world, and self-consciously lives up to the examples of his heroes, which include Spider-Man and Superman as well as legendary samurai.
Simply put, superheroes do not kill, except perhaps during wartime or as an absolute last resort to save the life of an innocent. Hiro could not have killed Adam because he didn’t *have *to.
Now, permanently imprisoning a villain, even in a situation well described as “a fate worse than death”, that’s completely within the Code.
