I love how this is going.
Hiro's now got a sidekick (and is enjoying this adventure way too much)!
Looks like I was right: Sylar's telekinetic. And appears to have some kind of healing factor or invulnerability.
Claire proves my assumption about powers being linked to brains (and also hints how to "kill" Wolverine, theoretically. . .). There's gonna be a confrontation between her and the jerk (and the jerk's girlfriend). Pity Hallmark doesn't make a "your boyfriend just tried to rape me, then got my head impaled and left me for dead(*)" card. I'm actually more irritated at the unseen Medical Examiner. What kinda incompetent ME starts an autopsy with a big foreign object lodged in the victim? And then removes said foreign object and just strolls out of the room?!? Ducky would have words with this nincompoop.
Uh, sorry. Wrong show, for a second there.

I still wasn't quite sold on this show untill the last shot of last night's episode. That was one hell of a way to end an episode.

Husband looked at me last night at the end of the show and said "ME must be retarded for leaving the stick in her brain. Ducky or Jordan would never have done that."

Sylar has to have teleportation powers as well as telekinetic. Matt, the telepathic cop is in L.A., but the apartment that Mohinder assumes is Sylar's is in New York. Either that or their is more than one person working in collusion.

I don't know if anyone noticed this, but the man who plays Silar was Forrest (Riley's friend) in Buffy. And from what I've seen, I believe his character is psychokinetic, which includes cryokinesis, pyrokinesis, and telekinesis. It would explain the woman being pinned to the wall as well as the man being frozen. And now suddenly realizing how geeky I sound.

I'm not entirely positive it's telekinetics. It seems to me that every bit of evidence of TK also involves a metal object. I remember seeing knives and other thingies to pin people to walls, the gun...
Think they may be going Magneto on this one? That could also help ecplain the not getting killed by all of those bullets thing. I'm just guessing, mind you. TK would make me happy too.

WOW!
That is all I can say about that episode. It was all about the ending. Cheerleader chick coming back was awesome. I hope she freaks out the dude that put her in that position. I'm also curious about the Ali Larter's character. Where's that one going?
Great show! Hope NBC sticks with it to give us the answers we are looking for.

Quote:If it was magnetic, she could've just twisted away from the gun. Plus I was watching her finger --it looked like she couldn't pull it away from the trigger (which likely would've been her first instinct at feeling the gun being twisted around).

Also, IIRC, you could make out the bullets hitting him (squibs on his clothes). If they hadn't, he wouldn't have gone down like he did, or moved quite so stiffly as he was getting back up.

Definitely telekinetic & not magnetic. The female FBI agent was fighting pulling the trigger when Sylar made her point her weapon at her own head. There is also the matter of lifting people into the air to impale them on the wall.
As for the bullets, I think it was a matter of telekinetic ability stopping them short of entering him, not some sort of healing ability. I think a hastily erected TK shield stopped them from wounding him, but the force of the impacts still knocked him down. When Sylar stood back up you could hear the bullets hitting the ground. Just as he disappeared you heard a "whoosh" sound as if he flew or jumped up to a great height to evade capture.
Definitely getting really good. I think we will see heroes and villians. Sylar is one, but I think we will see more.
