What was the roach thing? I remember it being there, but I don't remember him doing anything with it.

Yea, i dont think that had any significance. AND Sylar had to listen to suresh's watch to tell him what was wrong with it. Still sensory, audition & vision. There is no evidence that sylar has somekind of ESP to learn others powers.

My take on this is that Nathan has an affair, accidentally ends up knocking up the woman. He aspires to be a big time politician, however he can't have this secret come out, so he gets Claire's mom to "accidentally" cause a fire in the building. I'm guessing neither of them knew about Claire's powers, so they both presume she dies in the fire. Nathan's past stays buried and he can go on with his political career. It also explains why Claire's mom would call him after Claire finds her: their plan didn't go as expected, since Claire survived.

His flash backs to Issac's power were pretty crazy, when he almost had a melt down with the flash backs.
From the sounds, I don't think he was having flashbacks to Isaac's powers. Since he doesn't seem to be able to control powers when he first gets them, my guess is Wireless was somewhere nearby?

it is more likely that claires mothers fire ability manifested itself, and that it wasn't intentional.

if you don't think it had significance then you COMPLETELY missed the whole part where he slowed down his heart rate/body functions enough to make the doctor think he was dead. he got that from the roach.

I bet he ate the roach though. I think Sylar can tell what powers they have but cant obtain them unless he eats their brains. Hence the fact Mr. Bennett saying Sylar has a lot of different DNA in him.

I am thinking only powers that are going to affect him...I think if you are using powers away from him...you are fair game.

10. basically all of sylar's powers

freaking Peter is GOD!

let me know if I'm missing any other powers that he has come in contact with.

Maybe why the name "Peter" was picked for his char.

I could see this, but I'm not sure because of one thing that throws a bit of a wrench into the works... Claire is older than Nathan's children with his current wife. It's a possibility that he wasn't even married to her when he was with Claire's mother or that he was actually married to Claire's mother at one point.

I don't think Peter technically has the ability to read people's minds. I don't recall him ever being near the cop that has that ability.

When he was arrested after the incident at Claire's HS, Matt tried to read his mind and Peter got the power and it went all wacky.

I think the show is already screwing up in their treatment of powers. If Peter needs to think about the person and hence the power in order to use it, the regeneration is pretty pointless. It was only a coincidence that he survived. What happens if he gets knocked out or something happens that he isn't expecting?

his body would still do it since it's the body doing the work, the conscious mind just triggers it.

perhaps he does eat the brains, but he was pretty incapacitated to the point of not moving when he was in the cell. i dunno why he would suddenly be able to reach out and grab the roach and eat it given that in every other cell scene he was completely immobile.
