"Sylar acquires abilities based solely on examining brains alone -- no blood or adrenaline involved. Claire and Adam's abilities seem to be a function of their blood alone, as it revives both other evolved humans (such as Nathan) and normal humans (such as Noah) -- no adrenaline or brains involved. Now Mohinder is saying that it's adrenaline (while specifically stating that it's not blood). Can you reconcile these seemingly-contradictory bits of information for us?"

Is it really contradictory? Is it? Do you know exactly how Sylar's power works? I think there are some surprises in store in regards to who and what Mr. Sylar really is. And Claire and Adam' ability isn't a function of their blood - they're blood simply has a strange side-effect when administered to others. So, Mohinder was right - kinda - adrenaline figures in heavily to how these abilities work.

"Are we going to see any response from Nathan's wife and children to Nathan's near death experience?"

Not immediately, no - but you will see them this season.

"In the first season, it was hinted that Claire would die if her brain or head was removed. In the second season, Adam confirmed that there was "no going back" from having your head blown off. Sylar, however, said that Claire could not die, no matter what he did. Does this contradict the first season's tagline 'Save the Cheerleader, Save the World?'"

Nope. Claire indeed can be killed, as can Adam and Peter and Sylar, too. Decapitation does a pretty good job. We think Sylar was just fucking with Claire.

[quote]"In 'The Second Coming,' Sylar says to Claire, 'You see, I lost everything that made me special. Does Sylar mean that he permanently lost all of his acquired powers except for telekinesis? Has his slate of powers been 'wiped clean' and does he have to start all over again? If so, then by the end of 'The Butterfly Effect,' it appears that he only has his telekinesis power, Claire's healing and regeneration power, and Bob's power to turn things to gold. Or am I reading into things?"

Nope that's right. Sylar's starting over. Getting a whole new slate of powers as he goes. You can count Jesse's voice powers into the mix as well.

ZooBot23 is wondering about the chain of command at Yamagato:

"Hiro's sister, Kimiko, was both qualified and eager to run Yamagato Industries. How did Hiro end up with the company?"

Hiro's father left him the company - Japan is still a very male dominated society. Kimiko's still running the company as Hiro isn't exactly CEO material, but he still must accept the responsibility.

"Since Sylar says that he is now immortal from adapting Claire's powers, doesn't it also mean that Peter is immortal as well?"

They're all hard to kill - but no one is immortal.

"Who was Future-Peter running away from in the opening, and why would he need to run anywhere when he can teleport himself? Why would Claire think that she could kill Future-Peter with a gun?"

He was running away from "Heroes" fans on the boards, asking tough questions of him. You'll find out why she thought he could be killed next week.

So Niki/Jessica/Tracy/Gina are basically this show's version of the Stepford Cuckoos, right? Except they each have different powers. I'm fine with this though, <333 the Stepford Cuckoos.

I mean they must be clones, right? That seems the most logical explanation. I hope so, so Ali Larter can continue to be killed off but always have a new person to play. <3 She'll be like a Cylon.
