But then why would she think being in jail would protect her?

Didn't she say it wasn't so much for her own protection, but for that of all the other people with powers? If she copped to the crime, the investigation ends with her. She feared that an active investigation into Kaito's death would result in uncovering the truth about everyone else, resulting in their persecution/something bad.

Okay, so, it seems clear that Papa "Deadbeat" Parkman is the Nightmare Man, yet it was a slender person who threw Kaito from the roof. Ando saw this person, yes? So could that have been a nightmare? Or is someone working with the Nightmare Man? Or was it not him at all?

Nathan's nuked face worked better in glimpses and distorted mirrors. Let's not see it for that long ever again.

In re the Irish girl - it must be nice to have a job where you can just close up and take a Petrelli break when you want to.

Yeah, that's a very nice perq.

Sighhhhhhhh

I need a Petrelli break.

(Though given the choice between a Petrelli break and the chance to smack Mohinder upside the head I'd be torn.)

I was remarking to my roommate that the Wandering Stones must be the most-deserted Irish pub in the history of bars. No wonder they have to turn to crime for a profit....

For that matter, aside from Matt, Monica, and Ando, how many of our "Heroes" have actual job-jobs (as opposed to cover jobs or nefarious work for The Company)?

Alex Ross cover for the graphic novel and the Jim Lee cover.

I assumed they are not a pubkeeping family who turned to crime, but a crime family who run a pub as a cover story.

For camparison, I understand that in real life Al Capone kept a used furniture store as a cover. Every now and then when someone clueless wandered in to price furniture, whoever was there (sometimes Capone himself) would treat them kindly, but honestly admit that neither their quality nor prices were of the best, and that so and so down the road offered better deals. As far as history records, this was more than sufficient to discourage inconvenient interruptions by would-be furniture buyers.

When/how did Micah learn how to play piano? Was it when his parents barely had enough money to keep a roof over their heads? Hmm.

Nikki agreed to Jessica's first mass murder (that we know of) to get money to send Micah to an extremely expensive private school. I got the impression from what Nikki has already spent and still owed for the quarter that is was well above the $20,000 per year mark. So it was likely that piano lessons were offered at that school. Alternatively, if Nikki was spending that much on the private school, she might have thrown in a little extra for piano lessons somewhere else.

Or it's possible that, with Micah's big brain, he learned on his own. Just think what he could do with a player piano!

And, Typo, I love the idea of Al Capone and his "staff" going with the truth in advertising thing.
