I think that was his file, but Mohinder's curiosit, he saw the little girls file first.

- The soccer ball person - isn't that S. Ylar? It couldn't be the sister, since she was 5 when she died.

No, i think that was his sister that Mohinder's mother spoke of.

There seems to be a gap in the story, but I'm sure it'll be patched up.. the space-time continum is not the same as in the movie like Back to the future it seems.

Looks like it, she convinced Issac to stop taking meds, and probably others like Moshinder to stop looking for the answer..

grreeeat episode.. i still want to see a Hiro movie or spin off, his story (minus the super hero stuff) reminds me a lot of Mystery Train, an odd movie which had a sub-plot about japanese tourist...

I like how the characters are evolving and I particularly like that this episode lacked Niki - her story line just isn't that interesting

yeah, but who has Silar killed so far? He seems to be invulnerable already since he didn't die from those bullets that the mind-reading cop fired at him in a previous episode.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looked like the soccer ball person was male. Furthermore, his sister's last name would also be Suresh.

This was the biggest revelation to me. They've been wanting you to think Clair's dad is "the face of evil" because they show him every time they say "the face of evil". But tonight, they made it seem that maybe he's not bad. Or, maybe he is, and they want to confuse us.

I don't think he gave her the Japanese phrasebook. He "changed" the past when he went back, so she wouldn't have remembered him earlier cause she hadn't met him in the past she experienced then.

if silar gets claires powers he is indestructible. then he gets that new radiation guys powers and he can create and set off nukes anywhere anytime he wants.

Claire is not indestructible really, if you were to stab her to the ground with a big stake...she'd remain dead until it was removed.

I wonder what would happen if she was shot in the head and the bullet was lodged in her skull. That really wouldn't be too difficult.


She'd be able to handle any surgery to remove it, DL could probably phase it out of her as well.

She would need the projectile removed if she couldn't heal around it.

My only question is once Claire is saved, where could the show possibly go from there? Everyone comes together to help, but I'm still trying to understand how this could possibly go forward with a long-running series w/o seeming too campy.

Especially with the Nikki character. She is BY FAR the worst character on the show and her "super powers" seems more akin to my GF when she's PMSing.

The name on the file is Iyer Sanjog.

not confirmed but:

Sylar is suspected to have one or more of the following powers: telekinesis, cryokinesis, regeneration, super-jump, power absorbtion.

Powers revealed in the actual story:

In Don't Look Back, Molly's father is frozen solid while eating dinner, mid bite, with the top of his skull removed. Molly's mother is pinned to the staircase by silverware about 5 feet off the ground, and it is stated "It must have taken three guys to lift her up that high".

In One Giant Leap, Sylar manipulates Audrey, forcing her back against a fence, then forcing her right hand to point her firearm at her head. She is attempting to hold back her right hand with her left hand.
After being hit by several of Matt's bullets, Sylar rises a minute later, almost "lifting" himself from the floor, seemingly unharmed. The sound of metal hitting to the floor is heard, as if Sylar was able to shield himself from the bullets.
Sylar escapes by leaping up the wall (a reference to the title of the episode).

In Seven Minutes to Midnight, Sylar pulls a glass into his hand from across the table, presumably telekinetically.

Your girlfriend rips people in half when she's PMSing? yikes.

maybe NFS4 is also super strong,
that way, his GF would just be normal, not like the fragile girls that he's dated before
