Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

maybe the police had arrived by that point. I'm sure that Molly will let someone know.

I'm trying to remember if we've ever seen Peter use more than one power at a time. Could he if he even wanted to?

How come Peter could pick up Niki's power five seconds after he met her, but he couldn't fly himself away?

I don't think we've seen Peter using two powers at one time.

maybe he can only use one power at a time.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

When, oh, when will Hiro learn to fucking cut. off. Sylar's. head!!!1!!1

Exactly! Do they expect us to believe Hiro never watched Buffy?

He... can only use one power at a time, and he was stuck on nuke? Or, or... he was so busy concentrating on trying not to explode that he couldn't make anything else work.

I dunno.

Hmm. Can they use more than a single power at once, those two?

ETA: Wow. Massive one-power-at-a-time X-post.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

How come Peter could pick up Niki's power five seconds after he met her, but he couldn't fly himself away?

Doh! I totally missed that one. I was so busy going "Wow, I wasn't expecting the Peter/Sylar showdown to be quite so physical" that it didn't even occur to me that he was beating Sylar up with Niki's super strength.

That said, have we seen Peter use two powers at once yet? Even if he can, I think the big problem was that Ted's power was overwhelming everything else.

ETA: Hee! Massive "Can he use more than one power at a time"? x-post.

So, is there a record for crossposts?

Sylar seems to be able to do two at once, he made that snow storm for his mother. That looked like it took the freezing ability and the telekinesis to do it. You would think Peter would be able to use more than one at a time, but maybe that's why Sylar's crazy, using two at once sucks the sanity out.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Sylar gains control of his abilities a lot faster than Peter does -- probably because his base ability is to understand how things work.
