Cool! But that menas Hiro doesn't get his sword in episode twelve. I thought he did. (Masi Oka confirmed that the answer to the dinosaur painting would be given in episode twelve)

The Answer was given re the sword and the dino as there is a shot in godsend that perfectly mirrors the painting issacc did

and the sword hiro "got" in godsend was a replica as we found out that "the linderman Group" owns the original and hiro still has to get the sword from him!!!

however nathan may have a lot to do with getting this for hiro !!!!

Actually, In Godsend, Hiro tells Nathan that they have to stop the exploding man and Nathan says he thinks he can help with that. I believe that he was referring to Peter since Peter had told him that he was the exploding man (from his dream sequence). But it is Samone that tells Hiro that she can help him with finding the sword because she can get him into Linderman's office building or home or where ever he keeps the sword because Linderman is one of her clients.

I love the irony in the fact that Hiro and Ando love Star Trek, yet the person who plays Hiro's father is Sulu from Star Trek.

oh! maybe Hiro's father is so disgusted in Hiro's love for sci-fi that it makes him curious on what he likes so much about it. So he tries out for this original, new, futuristic show, called "Star Trek".
Then Hiro can go forward in time and see his father playing as "Hiro's father" in Episode 12 of "Heroes".

All I can say....is....
TIME PARADOX!!

Hah that's interesting, I'm surprised I never noticed it, oh the irony!

Cough

Do you need a cough drop?

Alright I have had a lot on my mind. And of course last nights episode will not help me sleep at all. So here are my thoughts so that maybe some of you can clear things up for me and maybe I can sleep. Lol.

I really liked Claude. That was a good addition, but what did he mean others? How many empaths can there be? I mean if there were so many like Peter why would he be the most important one? I think his powers are different I don't think his power is mimic because of what Suresh said. He said he is a "sponge". So I think he has power absorbtion. I think if he controlled it he could do any power he has seen before without them there. So maybe Claude thinks he has dealt witrh others like Peter....hm...

And as for Claires mother...Can we say awesome? Yay now we are actually getting somewhere. And by the way I think that Hiro's father isa Linderman. I think that Linderman is a code name. I mean we have never seen him before for a reason. And this isn't a sat. morning cartoon. They will eventually show us all the characters and I think they have just revealed Linderman to us. I think that Claire's father could very well be Sylar, but also maybe not. Reasons why you ask? Well he is quite frightening. And has always been obsessed with being special. Maybe his wife and child were and he couldn't handle that. It made him insane. So her mother sets fire to the house makes it appears as if she's dead. That's why he has been searching for Claire. He knows she survived that. That's why he isn't searching for her mother. hmmm...sound good? But on the other hand he is young (even though Claires mother looked pretty young herself) Is he old enough to be her father? Hmm...dunno any ideas!?

Now the chimes! So do you think Mr. Bennett knows she has been talking to the Haitian? I mean Zach suddenly being back in her life? I'm sure he is an intelligent dude. He had to have figured that out, right?

One last thing.....do you think Micah will help break Nikki out eventually? I mean Dl can go through walls which would come in handy in a break out. She is superstrong and could easily take any guards trying to stop them, but how to get though the gates? Oh boy I wish I had a son who could just shut off all security systems and cameras and unlock doors with electronic codes and such! Oh WAIT she does! Why wouldn't he help her escape. He's willing to steal. I am curious what else Micah is capable of. I mean their whole family has this do what must be done to survive fixation. Why wouldn't he?

YA'll get back to me. I am full of unrest!

I dont believe claire's father is sylar, he is to you i think, and also her mom does look old like her adoptive mom. I think its linderman, cause rich casino owners typically in my perception where bright colored shirts and nice suits and watches, just like the short preview showed. As far as hiros father, it is, hiro worked for his dads company in japan, and his dad just wants him home, because he doesnt want his son wasting he life. that is what i think. but like i always said we just have to wait and see.

First off I hope it's not Linderman who is Claire's real father that would be too cruel giving her two fathers who are both pretty evil in their own way. I also kind of think that HRG might have some suspicions about Claire since he saw the wind chimes. Also I kind of think it would be awesome if DL and Micah worked together to break Niki out of prison, but we'll see

I think they really need to make Claire's father someone who catches us off guard because most of us suspect it's Linderman or Syler (for some reason). I think that'll throw a lot of things off.

It would make sense if Hiro's father was Linderman since he wants Hiro to stop using his powers, along with the others. but why Hiro's dad lol

True, but it will put claire in quite a predicament. It would be interesting to see how things churn out if that were the case. It would be alot for her.

LOL, I guess there is a reason we call you jester

A couple thoughts from the last episode, I looked and looked (maybe in the wrong place) and didn't see anything on this...

First, 36 individuals were mentioned to be on the map....here is my count based on the last episode
Claire
Hatian Guy
Peter
Nathan
Hiro
Nikki
Mikah
DL
The girl from the restaraunt in Texas (can't remember her name)
Invisible Man
Sylar
Eden
Radioactive Dude
Claire's Mom, Apparently
Isaac
Matt

If I missed a couple, it still leaves us short...my count only shows 16...I thought maybe mr. muggles might be one...wonder if dogs count...remember when he barked when daddy came home?

So, this leads me to believe there are a few other heroes out here. Super exciting!!!

Also, I was wondering when Peter dissaeared from the room (only to find out a split second later he went all invisible), do you think he might have tried to fly away? And if he did, how far do you think he would have gone before he fell out of the sky? I wonder what his range is...

Syler strikes me as a guy who is in his mid to late 20's, don't think he can be claires dad, but then again, if he is a hero he might not age like the rest of us.

If there is another post with this, I am sorry. Great episode though! Can't wait for next week!

I think that was just a doggy's intuition


Of course there are many more heroes left out there that this show has yet to introduce

I'm not sure that Peter has learned how to fly yet on his own, I think that's something that he will learn from Claude fairly soon.


There's no way that Sylar can be Claire's father, it just doesn't seem plausible

As interesting as that may be, Linderman most definetly isn't Hiro's father and the actor who plays Linderman will probably be [spoiler]Eric Roberts[/spoiler]

There's something about that Cock Roach that was in Sylar's cell. This isn't the first time Cock Roaches have been on the show. Remember Mohinder's Lecture about them in the very first episode?

Very true and they may possibly be linked but also the cockaroach may have just been shown to show how "dead" he was

I really like the role of Claire's mother.

I think, definitely, its someone we already know that its her father.

I really hope not, I can't think of any characters that we already know that would be good as Claire's real father

Ok first I said on the "board of which we don't speak" that Micah was gonna hit up the ATM's I love it when I'm right! (pats self on back).
Second, who is this Wireless chick, it's not Claire's mom right? cuz she lit the cigarette with her fingers ala (flame on) Johnny Storm. (btw that is friggin kewl as hell).
Third, could the guy talking to Hiro and Ando in Japaneese no less be Linderman not just a lakey thug with great language skills. ( naw... they wouldn't be that obvious would they?)
Fourth, OMG Sylar apparently didn't hear the fat lady sing. cuz it ain't over! and because of that fact somebody's gonna see him come outta the paper factory and Matts gonna get his job back...might even get promoted to Fed.
Fifth well I got no fifth right now I gotta get home...I'm done at work t'day.
L8R

I think I actually remember you saying that Micah was going to do that so good job



The Wireless chick is not Claire's mom but Hana Gitelman a spy who wants revenge (check out the graphic novel if you haven't yet)



I don't think that the guy talking to Hiro and Ando was Linderman he wasn't "bossy" enough he was probably just a guy who works for Hiro's dad

I'm wonder about the Claude's plot, because yeah...he said that he had meet others like Peter before, but with Peter's power? or only others with powers?

and Claire's mother have a power! I wasn't expecting that, really.(and Claire found her very easily imo) The effect in that scene was pretty cool though, not like the one with Nikki and DL, that you can easily could noticed the croma there. I didn't like it this chapter that much but it was ok in the end.

Someone else had posted a thread about the cockroach and that Sylar was able to somehow obtain certain characteristics from its DNA...maybe leading to him being able to play dead so well.

I thought it was a bit of stretch, but I suppose it's possible...

What if Linderman was...Ted?!?!

I dunno...just tossing it out there.

That seems like too much of a stretch to me and I doubt that Linderman would sit in a shack in the middle of nowhere

Good point!But he could easily know it by watching StarTrek re-runs or Sci-fi T.V. shows. the same manner how we know al of these stuff.

invisible guys sacasm is sooo great lol

mother manipulating daughter is the worse.
