Even if Peter didn’t absorb Sylar at the end of the show, does his touching “Nathan” (and clearly absorbing his flight ability) mean that he now has ALL the powers Sylar used to have? Or did he just pick up flight?

@ Paul

It has to do with Mohinder’s dad’s research – something about people with abilities giving off some type of measurable force…Samuel’s power allows him to harness that force. I think it’s pretty cool, actually.

Anyway, I think he has some idea that being around others with abilities makes his ability more powerful, but the secret to why – and presumably how – lies on that tape.

Wait, why is it that Samuel’s powers get multiplied when he’s near other people with abilities, and this doesn’t happen to anyone else? Why did he send Hiro back to get that reel if he already knows this fact? Hasn’t he been trying to “grow his family” with more powerful people every damn episode so far?

@Madison: Myself and a few of my friends are convinced that Syler’s mind is now inside Peter. None of us can remember Peter’s hand ever glowing like that when he took a power before. Pretty sure that was Sylar jumping again.

@ Josh

It all happened pretty fast, but I think Sylar got back into Nathan. That’d be pretty cool if he ended up in Peter, though.

@ Laura

Ha, things got better right around the 4th episode. Crappy luck. Catch up on Hulu!

Damnit. I freaking quit Heroes this year after dedicating my time and energy to the series after the downfall that was the past 2 seasons. I gave up after 3 episodes this year, and now I hear good things??? This would happen to me.

I didn’t get the chance to read your review, but does anyone know if Peter is the one with Sylar in him and not Nathan? When Nathan brushes Parkman’s hand, their hands glow. When Peter touched Nathan to take his ability to fly, Peter’s hand glowed. I’ve never noticed this before and I’m worried that Sylar is now in Peter and not his own body (because, let’s face it, we need Sylar back in full force. Besides House and Walter from Fringe, there is no better character on TV)

@ Rob

That makes sense, and I considered that. Maybe Noah or Angela will say as much.

I think Matt was scared to death of Sylar and realized he can’t control him anymore, so he was pretty much pleading with Peter to help him.

And yes, a straight jacket should have been no trouble for Mohinder.

They probably kept Nathan’s body incase they met someone who could bring people back to life or something…wonder if Peter could of if he thought to do it. I’m sure they would of done that by now if so though…

Why would Matt tell him the truth anyways? Why didn’t he just keep his mouth shut about Nathan dying and just say Sylar is making shit up about him to possess him since he’s more powerful than Parkman.

And couldn’t Mohinder’s super strength get him out of that Straight Jacket?
