. And if Sylar won the fight in Five Years Gone, Future!Sylar would have Peter's power.
but only if Peter's brain remained intact. Sylar didnt' get Eden's power because she blew her head off.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

What if the way that Molly Walker can be used against Sylar is that he kills her, eats her brain and gets the virus? So, Mohinder saving Molly means that Sylar doesn't die.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm pretty sure he doesn't eat the brains. He just looks at them to see how they work.

Molly said he eats the brains. It's quite possible she saw him eat her parents' brains. Or she's a kid and imagined it. Boogeyman. But: braaaaaaaaaaaains.

or she saw him take the brain out of the head and assumed he ate it.

Maybe he looked at the brain of a zombie, saw how it worked, and now he eats brains.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
but only if Peter's brain remained intact. Sylar didnt' get Eden's power because she blew her head off.
I'm not sure Peter would think of that, but my point was more about whether either of them would gain all the powers or just the base power.

This is what I thought. Weren't there jars and jars of brains in his apartment when Matt and Clea Duvall were tracking him?
On edit, or Mohinder. SOMEBODY found Sylar's apartment at some point.

I remember a detail! An examination of Peter's DNA showed that his genes actually morph. His brain physically changed to give him the powers he absorbs. So a good chance that Sylar could get more than base powers. Since Sylar presumably has similar powers to Peter, only via brain examining, I think the same happens in reverse with Peter. Which means Peter already has super-hearing if only he knew it. Anyway, my speculation until disproven. Definitely not conclusive.
I'm trying to figure out how you take out Sylar. His TK makes him pretty hard to take down, and he seems to keep improving his ability to use his powers. Once you get him, incinerating the body and scattering the ashes seems an obvious move. But even with Molly to locate him, taking him down in the first place is not so easy.
