So, I rewatched an ep over the weekend, and you know the scene where Hiro and Ando are hiding in the luggage compartment, and the lady comes over and tries to shoot them, and the bullet goes back into the gun? That doesn't, to me, quite fit with Hiro's time/space travel abilities--it looked more like classic telekenesis, which makes me wonder if Ando did it (as much as I like Ando being the non-powered partner)

I'm still in the camp that thinks Hiro somehow reversed time, which could be cool if down the road something bad happens, we're all shocked and "Nooooooes!" and then Hiro hits rewind and averts the disaster.
It's even better than going back in time because there is no "other Hiro from five minutes in the past" to contend with and that whole paradox thing. Hiro will flow in time like the Spice (I'm sure I messed that up).
But, yeah, it would be cool yet sad to have Ando with powers and not be normal/straight.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
But telekinesis is a redundant power. Have they repeated powers on the show yet?
(Peter and Sylar not withstanding.)

Telekinesis is only redundant with Sylar, right? That, to me, is a less significant redundancy. And we've established that powers are not truly unique to the individual (cf empathy), but just within the cast.

Well, it's redundant with the guy he stole it from. Even outside the main cast, the randoms we've met all have different powers.

Did Claude ever imply that there were other empaths like Peter?
I do think that just cuz we haven't seen a repeat of powers doesn't mean that it can't happen.
But I still want it to be all Hiro!

I always assumed that the bullet thing was Hiro reversing time.

Me too. In other news, I'm TOTALLY psyched that it's finally back on tonight.

If you want to get yourself in the mood, stop by Hana's blog and watch all the videos about the voting test. It would have been cool to have participated more in that in real time, had I not been busy. I'm also pretty damn sure that those events are going to become canon, given that they used a couple actors who have appeared on the the show.
