Okay, there are a number of things I still don't get, I will allow for the fact that Papa Petrelli couldn't take Sylar's powers until they manifest and clearly Papa had taken to bed. But if they have a lab working on how to give people powers, are you telling me that they didn't have a partial formula for reducing/removing powers? That doesn't make any kind of sense.
If you know that your son will present the apocalypse, the ONLY way to prevent it is to drown the son? Sounds to me like Angela, etc. would be a lot more creative.
Yes, I realize by calling for Heroes plots to make sense I may indeed be crazy.

Why would they have that? Powers are a great thing!

Not so crazy during season 1. Since then, however...

Unfortunately, now Papa Patrelli has Ted's Fat Man & Little Boy power thanks to Peter.
And Maya's black-eyed plague power! And apparently, not just Peter's ability to learn powers, but also every power he absorbed, which now that I say it doesn't make sense...

Someone on another board posited that Bryan Fuller was the reason season one was great, and the mediocrity of the subsequent seasons is actually the base state for this show.

That wouldn't surprise me at all.

It's odd to think of the influence of one person on the writing staff who's not even the showrunner, but note that Lost began improving when Brian K. Vaughan joined.

Between Sylar, Pre-patri-choked!Pete and Papa, I have no idea who's absorbed which powers anymore, or why they don't use 'em at any given time. Like considering how long PPC!Pete had Matt's mind-reading powers, it's weird that he was always getting bamboozled. Stupidest mind-reader ever.
Also, why didn't Papa P absorb Matt's dad's powers before killing him? You'd think those could have come in handy.
