In the dark future Ando talked to Future Hiro about his sword training. Had this happened already, or are we to assume that he zipped off through time, learned to fight, and came back? Does modern day Hiro have any sword fighting skills?
I think the bit with Sylar's mom hinted at a lot. We know the powers are genetic and often passed down from parents. His mom didn't seem AS surprised as she could have been that he had powers. This could have been written off as her being a bit crazy, but I like to think that his dad had powers and was a total bastard. His mom started saying he was damned after thinking about it, and I like to think, making the connection between father and son. I doubt this will be expanded on, but in my little version of the show his dad was the nemesis of the Linderman super hero team.
The fact that Linderman seems to have set up DL and Nikki to eventually create Micah bothers me a bit, how much knowledge of genetics does this guy have? Or, I suppose, how long had Isaac been painting the future.
No Haitian this episode, which is a downer, because the exploding man solution would seem to be 'Have the Haitian nearby', or did he end up on the plane to Paris?
Parkman's goofy "I am using my POWERS!" eyeball thing makes me laugh, but his powers seem to be getting less useful as time goes on. At first he could pick up peoples stray thoughts without a problem, now he looks at them funny and still doesn't get anything. In the dark future why wasn't he getting a constant stream of "Holy shit I'm in the future!" from Hiro (although I suppose Hiro would be thinking in Japanese, that doesn't explain why Parkman got anything from him).
Speculation is below, none of it based on teh sekrit knowledge of what is to come.
I think the series will end with Nathan's redemption for being such a dick. I think someone will start to explode and Nathan will grab them and fly out over the ocean or into low orbit. The mutants will be revealed like in the dark history, but because NYC was saved by one they wont be vilified. At least that is how I would end it, just enough comic cliche ("Must...Get...Bomb...Away!" as he strains to fly as fast and as far as he can) to fit into the rest of the series, but will seem like a fresh and selfless act to the non comic book reading viewers. |
