It's a very Wishverse future with everyone dying and Hiro all embittered and alone and Matt working for the bad guys and Peter showing up at the end for an epic battle. Totally.
I thought this when I watched it.

"We have trust issues." Mylar
1) Sylar acquired a power that let him block or shielf himself from Matt's telepathy.
2) Matt was never in the same room with President!Sylar.
3) Matt picked it up, but for reasons unknown, either didn't believe it or kept it to himself.
I was thinking number two myself, but number one would be interesting . . . although that would mean there was another hero out there with powers at least somewhat similar to the Hatian (And really, does he have a name? I've just taken to calling him Francois, because, seriously, give that man a name!) I don't recall what the final verdict on the duplicate powers on Heroes was from upthread, and I am lazy and it's 11:45. Have we seen any yet?
Personally, I am just going to imagine that number three is true because I just really hate Matt and enjoy thinking the worst of him. Don't like him, don't like his story. I had actually almost managed to forget whiny wife until they pulled out the stick figure drawing. Maybe there's an alternate timeline where HRG gets the drop on him and puts him down instead. And in that timeline, Jessica/Niki was the one who blew up leaving Peter and DL to pick up the pieces together.

Woo-hoo! I've been looking forward to, uh, looking forward to that.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
Do we have any word on whether the online commentaries are going to make it onto the DVD? (I'm having a really hard time getting them to play all the way through on my computer. argh!)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
So, anybody up for some specs for the final three episodes? I'm unspoiled other than what I've seen of the promo and deliberately didn't read the big EW Heroes spread as I've been told it was chockful of spoilers. (And I'd like to stay that way!)
Some of the questions from the preview:
1) What's Molly Walker's power?
2) What sacrifice is Ma Petrelli asking of Nathan?
3) Will anyone else die?
4) If Hiro stops Sylar (I assume he will), then who will stop Peter?
I'm very intrigued by 2). There aren't that many things Nathan truly care for. There is his political ambition. And his family, which include Heidi and the boys, Peter, and Claire. And of course, there is himself. Could his mother be asking Nathan to sacrifice himself to stop Peter and save the world? Because if Nathan dies, I'd be heartbroken because I love Adrian Pasdar and the job he's doing in the role, but it'd also be some wonderful storytelling and a heroic end for a very ambiguous character who we've been told is capable of some very dark things. It'd also be in keeping with Peter's vision, in which Nathan approached him with a purposeful look on his face while everyone was backing away.

Oh, good, that's what I expected. But, relatedly, there are five covers, and I was anxious as to which one would show up in my mailbox. And, I won! I got the Bennets!
It'd also be in keeping with Peter's vision, in which Nathan approached him with a purposeful look on his face while everyone was backing away.
I think someone in this thread suggested that Nathan was coming to fly Peter up, up, and away where his explosion wouldn't hurt anyone. I mean, theoretically, he should be able to deposit him and fly away before getting blown up, but...he might just go kerblooey. I don't want to lose Nathan either.
I don't want to lose Nathan, Peter, Mama Petrelli (what's her power?!), Claire, Mr. Bennet, and Hiro & Ando (who we now know have to be a team for the sake of HIRO'S SOUL). I like the other characters okay, but I wouldn't be as sad/mad if they weren't around next season. That's not too much to ask, Tim Kring, is it?

That's been my working theory for awhile, as well.

What is even happening?
I don't want to lose Nathan, Peter, Mama Petrelli (what's her power?!)She's the mom, silly.
I think someone in this thread suggested that Nathan was coming to fly Peter up, up, and away where his explosion wouldn't hurt anyone.This. And then I think Mama Petrelli will force Linderman to heal Nathan.
edit...
Or or or, Peter will have picked up the healing power, by then.
