Heroes 12/15/08 "Duality" or maybe it's "Duel" (spoilers)

I’m guessing now: Ando’s ability will end up jumpstarting Hiro’s lost powers. And what Hiro saw in the future was Ando boosting him to jump back and save the world.

Beat you to that prediction in last episode’s thread:

@Half_Man_Half_Wit

My prediction on this (read: baseless speculation) is that Ando gains a power-giving power after treating himself to a dose of super sauce, which happens to express itself through red lightning (note how the sauce was red, too), so that Ando zapping Hiro in the future was just him trying to give Hiro his power back; also a good way for the writers to claim ‘see, we did plan all this in advance! Totally not making stuff up as we go!’.

Also, I thought this ep was pretty good, better even than last week’s – it’s had some genuine moments of awesome:

• Hiro socking Tracy in the face (after apologising)
• Matt (!) ‘explaining’ Einstein
• Lab-accident origin story! (I wonder, though, wasn’t what was in the big vat un-catalysed super sauce?)

Also, did Peter merely gain flight as his power, or did he get his old power back, and then assimilated Nathan’s?
