Nikki/Jessica is canonically a serial killer

Speaking of that, does anyone think that N is finally free of J? In that last scene with Micah in the closet, she looks in the mirror and, from what I can tell, only sees herself. Was that "I'm not strong enough" and then the kicking of ass supposed to indicate some sort of mental reconciliation between her and her brain twin? If so, lame, and also, not nearly clear enough.

Maybe we're all thinking too short term, and the ultimate resolution for Peter "love" (or whatever) power won't show up until next season (or maybe even the final season, whenever that is)?

As much as I think I would like that narratively, it would drive me nutso to watch, and I really don't think Heroes plays that long a game. Particularly not with this underwhelming finale as evidence. But I would like to be proven wrong.

Did anyone else think Mama Petrelli's power might be one of influence? It was more noticeable in this episode--she kept trying to convince people of things with imperative statements, and then put her hands on them, after which they would agree with her. At least, until Claire chose to dive out a window.

I did.

P-C, according to epguides [link] it's a 23 episode season. So that was it, unfortunately. No second part.

He means yesterday's episode was the second half.

That is indeed what I mean.

Oh--sorry, I didn't get that. The advertising doesn't quite reach here. *g*

I thought Charles's power was magical negritude. It would have been very obvious if Peter began manifesting that power.

I'm staying in my dreaming-related power camp, which the finale reinforced, rather than lessened.

I think too -- some sort of dream-walking.

Wasn't that also the power of that little boy in India that Mohinder saw early on in the season? I'm sorta sad they dropped that story line, but who knows? It could get picked up next season.
