I think it's interesting that we've seen more characters with powers just like other characters... Kensei having regenerative powers (and being a blonde just like.... hmmm ;)) and West, Claire's friend with flying powers (and brown hair just like... well now!)

Actually, this plays into something I have wondered about. We learned that the flying boy (sorry, can't think of his name) was evaluated by Claire's father. Knowing the way Mr. Bennett plans things, I can't help but feel that he moved to the town where this boy is intentionally. So, the question that occurs is why did Mr. Bennett want Claire and Flying Boy to meet?

At least a part of my thought was that Mr. Bennett wanted Claire to not feel so alone, that now she will be able to have a friend that also has a power. And your post makes me think that the reason this boy was chosen to be a friend with Claire may well be related to the idea the boy has the same power as Claire's biological father and, because of that, be more attractive to Claire. You have to even suspect that Mr. Bennett knows Flying Boy does little to hide his powers and that, just by being close to him, it could "out" Claire again.

Mr. Bennett seems to still have plans in play. Setting his daughter up like this, particularly without being honest with her about it, seems back in line with the secret planning and dishonesty that was standard operating procedure when he was part of the Company. So, my question becomes is he still "evil" or is it just a case of old habits dying hard.

I hope the whole storyline with Kensei is not as transparent as it seems.
Will Hiro actually be the reason Kensei is a hero? Is it not that his presence will alter history but actually fulfill it? Could Hiro actually be the legendary Kensei himself?

Yes, his presence makes history come to pass. You also have to remember, that old Japanese legends are somewhat tall tales, and everything told ain't entirely as it actually happened. Kinda like Paul Bunyon..you know what I mean? And I think that Hiro is the "dragon" who teaches Kensei everything he knows. ;)

That got me wondering,too. Did Nathan have an affair while with his first wife? Is Claire this guy's half-sister? ewwww.

That guy resembles Peter, did the casters do that on purpose? He could be related to the Petrelli's somehow.

I'm wondering if Sylar was given the virus so that he would be "safe" while in captivity; it would explain the loss of his powers. I also found it interesting that he told the twins his real name, Gabriel Gray -- though I suspect it is because he is "ordinary" so he doesn't consider himself Sylar.

This season has a lot of questions and few answers to this point.

Maya could have easily killed Sylar/Gabriel, I think...but then, that would have ended the story. If Sylar gains Maya's power, he will be even more formidable!

Apparently Matt's dad (the nightmare man) has similar powers to Matt...though much more powerful, it seems.

Monica apparently has similar powers to Micah, in a way: Monica can duplicate things she sees on TV, and Micah can manipulate or fix the TV...or any device of technology, apparently, like a computer, etc.

What will become of Molly, who is apparently in some kind of coma?

The fact that Monica and her family are survivors of Katrina is somewhat interesting, I guess...

Ugh...I can't believe they're going to introduce "Veronica Mars" (Kristen Bell) as a character. Sure, she's pretty and all that, but I associate her too much with "Veronica Mars" to have her comfortably fit into "Heroes." Is she going to have detective powers or something? LOL! Maybe the following week, they should introduce Jennifer Love Hewitt and give her the power to communicate with ghosts! LOL! Sorry, I'm getting cynical now...

Cynical, but funny! :) I never watched the Mars show though. Yes, obviously his dad's powers are pretty potent, but I believe that all of their powers are way more than they realize. Remember last season, when Ted was imprisoned at the company, and HRG told him that he knew Ted could do more than Ted even knew? ANd he helped him create and EM pulse? I think that this is Peter's "lightning" power... just Ted's power under control.

Who else hopes West dies a horrible, painful death? His lines are gag worthy and the "romance" seems forced.

I think Clair's father knows she is with a boy (hello, the painting clearly is evidence for that) and he didn't get where he is today by being a fool.

Hopefully he will change the future and knock West off :)

I don't think West is all he seems. I think he knew about Claire before he saw her regen. There's something fishy with that boy.
He does seem a little TOO perfect for Claire...

I totally agree. There's definitely something shifty about him. But even if there isn't, I personally just don't like him. I think his character is dumb. :|

According to the painting, isn't West supposed to kill Claire's dad? And doesn't Claire's dad know that? And, when Claire's dad went to the sliding glass door, wasn't there evidence that West had been there, secretly watching and listening, and had then flown away? Obviously, Claire's dad knows what's going on, and I think West does too.

That painting could mean anything. The man in the painting doesn't look like West. (The clothes and hair are different.) And, if it is, it could be that West and Claire find her dad together and West is comforting her.

Here's a thought. What if West works for the Organization? Remember, all those with power were tagged by the organization, whether they worked for them or not. The guy who knocked Nakamura off the roof disappeared, maybe flew away. Then there's the fact that he picked up on Claire from the start. Perhaps his being there isn't so "accidental" but purposefully placed by the organization to get to Claire, capture her, and kill her father for betraying the organization.
