Okay, so why exactly (and how) did PP regress Hiro to 10 year's old mentally instead of just stealing his powers and/or killing him? (Aside from the fact that killing Hiro would infuriate half the audience)
My assumption was that Ando's interruption of the process had some weird effects.
My thinking about that scene was that PP wasn't physically in Africa (since he hasn't stolen Hiro's powers, he can't teleport), and thus couldn't do anything but mess with his mind.
Didn't Peter have the teleport power? So Papa could have taken them from him.
Parkman is the worst mind reader evah. Or maybe speedy girl's thoughts are too fast for him.
Was I the only one watching blue fire guy chasing Claire, and wondering if he knows she's his niece?
I just realized that the shot of the shaman's head was an echo of Claire's fate in Mama Petrelli's dream early in the season.
Ubuntu?
Can we please call him this?
Can we please call him this?
Seconded.
Speaking of Ubuntu, did he write the latest Nine Wonders comics, or was Isaac that far ahead of schedule? Or did Peter write it? Or Sylar?
I wondered about that myself. I did enjoy that plot device in season one, but I don't understand why the prescient comics are still around with Isaac dead. I don't think there's any indication that the characters we've seen write comics in their spare time. Maybe the author will be a new character? (And before we give our standard groan about new characters...I realized the other day that I actually like the new characters this year. Well, Flint doesn't do much for me, but I like everyone else.)
Ooh, I found a good and thoughtful analysis of Sylar and Hiro over at io9:

Oh right. I can't keep track.
In that case, I have no idea. At one point I would have been upset about losing Hiro - right now I'd sacrifice almost anyone to get the cast down to a manageable size.
