What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Kate, Au Co is a Vietnamese woman with the power to make crops grow. Linderman and Petrelli's group was ordered to take her out (they initially thought "Au Co" was a village to be destroyed).

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Thought: is Mohinder's dumbness just due to meta needs? Is it possible he was intended by the writers to be dumb as a box of rocks from the beginning? Academic talent does not necessarily keep you from acting in extremely stupid ways in every other area of life. Some of Mohinder's choices in past episodes don't show the greatest judgment. He makes smart moves on occasion, but they are usually outnumbered and outweighed by bad choices. Which fits well with someone with the capacity for intelligence who fails to use it.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I mean, his superpower is understanding how things work -- he of all people should realize that smashed keyboard != unrecoverable data!)
I thought that Mohinder smashed the computer, or it was smashed in the brawl, but it really didn't look like the hard drive was there. So I figured that Mohinder had the presence of mind to take the thing. It's possible I'm giving him too much credit, there.

Really, using the computer to smash Sylar would have been the best of both worlds.

Heh, what was that quote from bob bob in Natter (I think)? "Academic moments" a la "senior moments" It certainly explains why a friend of mine, who is an academic and one of the smartest book-smart people I know, can also never EVER be on time, leaves his bank card in the ATM, forgets to renew his car registration, etc. Of course, he's also blond, so maybe it's double jeopardy in his case.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Since my memory returned, I can do this one: She was killed by Papa Petrelli and Linderman when they were in the service. The death was pretty brutal.
