I told you Matt was probably capable of mind control.

Claire's birth mother is Meredith Gordon.  And she's blonde.  (She also kind of resembles Elle....but I think that's just my hair bigotry acting up...)

As for Matt...he successfully carried through with his first mind rape!  They...they just grow up so fast...

Really...I want to know Angela Petrelli's backstory soooo much now....even without exhibiting a power, she has proven to be one of the more intriguing (and sometimes disturbing) characters...mostly just due to the fact that she basically knows everything about everyone.

By the way, did it catch anyone else's attention that Kaito told Hiro "we have the powers of gods?" Maybe he was quoting something, or maybe he meant people as a whole, but it made me quirk my eyebrows a bit when he said that.

Victoria Pratt, wonder who she will turn out to be?

Btw, scientificly the powers of Claire and Adam don't seem logical. A human ages because cells are being damaged and because of copieng mistakes while the cells devide. Rapidly deviding cells for regeneration should actually kill them faster :p. This was done right in Naruto though.

This is true.  I think that is why they brought up the remark of thinking that Adam "only had one power" (or something to that effect), implying that they were wrong to think that regeneration was his only ability, and his ability to live this long was somehow related to the regeneration, but was not entirely due to it (like Parkman being able to read thoughts and also implant them; same basic concept, two different functions).  I'm hoping that his effective immortality was an extension of regeneration, rather than a byproduct.  But, who knows....

By the way, did it catch anyone else's attention that Kaito told Hiro "we have the powers of gods?"

Actually, it didn't catch my eye, strangely....I just assumed that he was referring to himself and Hiro (implying that he had a power, which he most likely does).

I just looked it up, and aging as I stated it was just a theory. It seems that certain organisms don't age (which, is according to the wiki article bad for natural selection). Anyways it's funny if you look at animals that don't age, our friend, the lizard comes by again.

I wonder when Claire and Adam will turn green and scaly 8).

I wish the Mexicans would go the way of Internet Girl from season 1. Anyone remember her? She was standing in Noah's house at the end of one episode with Fat Cop and Nuke Man. Then at the beginning of the next episode, she was gone. No one in the room even noticed. What the fuck was that all about!?

Aye, she was an absolutely pointless character, but why put her there in the first place if you're gonna just retcon her 4 and a half seconds later?

Hannah Gittleman (think that's it?) she dies in the comic and has some backstory added, but they could have at least mentioned it on the show.

I wonder where Noah is now? I guess with the company...?

Also I thought it was obvious that all of the earlier generation had powers, i.e. Maury, Kaito, Adam, Angela, Bob, Charles Deveaux, Linderman, etc.

I'm thinking that maybe the woman in the picture may be Angella Petrelli's sister? Who else but family ties would want to protect enough like that?

EDIT: Since claire's blood causes the regeneration in people when it's put into it, does this mean that these people now have claire's power? It would stem to think that all these cells from claire would keep on dividing, keeping their trace in Noah's bloodstream, and Nathan too? Or do you think that once those cells die out the power of regeneration goes with it?

That's why they formed the Godsend society in the first place, wish they told us Sulu's power though :(​. The only red-headed woman I remember is the one that Hiro liked that worked in the diner.

As biology teacher I can inform you of the fact that all bloodcels are fully grown and aren't able to devide (you need stemcels for that). Red bloodcels don't even have a nucleus/cellcore.

Of course, it's not like the show is biologically correct in the first place. I eat brain for powers1!

My guess is that Sylar doesn't eat brains, but looks and hears how the brains coorperate to use a power, after that he just mimics that.

Actually, immature monocytes can and will divide.

I think that he looks at the brain's DNA samples or strains or whatever, or examines how they work, and injects the blood into himself so he can use those powers also.

Do you think he even needs the blood? I always assumed he just knows how things ticked. So if he could see your brain, and learn how it ticked, he could then immitate that power. Although I guess blood would make everything make a bit more sense.
