Hmmm... I've wondered where Peter got the prophetic dreams from that first got him thinking about flying. Do you think that it could be that he was in contact with someone who had prophecy dream powers, like, say, Simone's dying father?

Maybe he ran into Buffy now that she's left Sunnydale.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Regarding Petrelli Sr.'s death, all we know is that it was called a heart attack for a while, until Mother Petrelli said that it was really suicide. No mention of the method used, although I get the impression it was an overdose of something.(or poison)

I think that\'s exactly right, Theo.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I think it would be bizarre if they didn't bring Simone's father into it, given that he lived in that building, and that building is definitely Significant (even if it's ultimately for budget reasons). And he did seem like a dreamer. Seems like a kind of...underwhelming power, unless I'm misunderstanding.

eta: but with both of them dead, it would be hard to do, outside of flashback, but that is now an established convention of the show.

Not just lived in it -- He owned it, didn\'t he?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Yay, Heroes thread! Thanks, Theo, for suggesting it!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Not all powers are necessarily very useful, like being able to glow in the dark, or turn into a purple guinea pig. We're just spending more time with the interesting powers, presumably.

Trust my rage

Well, we know that the fire was on the top of Claude/Simone's dad's building. So if Meredeith was there with Nathan, perhaps it did belong to Petrelli Sr.
