While I agree on the lack of coroner when Claire wakes up on a gurney with her chest cracked open, I think maybe this was done to see the utterly horrified look on his face when he walks in on her. Where do you think her sub-plot will go from here?
I'm thinking that she heals in time to get out of the morgue as the coroner calls someone to let them know that a 16 year old girl with a hole in her head and a cracked open chest has just woken up. She makes a run back to her place to grab some clothes and other stuff because after this, she definitly can't stay in Odessa. She maybe runs into the A/V guy who filmed her and tells him everything, and he either decides to come with her, or he stays behind to kick the ass of the quarterback who killed her. All the while, the mysterious step-dad will be following Claire as she makes her way cross country, maybe possibly meeting up with Hiro in Vegas. That could be a fun episode. A sullen, indestructible 16 year old cheerleader paired with an ecstatic, space-time breaker who used to be an office drone in Japan.
I wonder if there's a fanfic of that already?

Leonard Roberts (Forrest on Buffy the Vampire Slayer) plays D. L., Niki's husband and Micah's father.
It is possible that Sylar is also someone we already know, and in that case my bet is on Nathan Petrelli.
ETA: I certainly think it is possible that D.L. could be Sylar. Micah surely knows something about his father that he is not telling even his mother.

I think that Claire will heal and get out of the morgue before the coroner gets back. It will be played off as a body snatching. Claire will come to the realization, after talking to the nerd w/ the camera (and the crush on her) that her life in town is over. She will try to get revenge on the guy who killed her (as we saw in clips for next week) before leaving town. I think her friend will then convince her she (or possibly they) need to leave town. I think they will be compelled to go to either Las Vegas, or New York, since that seems to be where the two greatest concentrations of Meta Humans seems to be now.
I have no doubt that Claire's adoptive father will follow her, knowing as he does what she is.
This is shaping up to be a great show.

That's assuming that the person who removed said foreign object from the brain was the ME--and not, say, her adoptive father? The ME may be lying unconscious (or worse) just out of camera range...
As to the garbage disposal suit, my question is, what would really happen if you put a human hand into a running disposal of that make? If they have some kind of safety system to prevent serious injury, then their suit has merit; if not, then not. In either event, NBC's legal department shouldn't have shown a specific brand-name on the thing.

I like this show but my husband is fanatical about it. He uses his free time at work to read the graphic novels and blogs on the HEROES website.
His theory is that Syler has all the powers that the other do. So he healed over his gunshot wounds (like Claire would) and pushed them back out (a la Wolverine) and flew away like Nathan. Plus he's got a few more nifty little powers that we haven't seen in anyone else yet.
He said the website is really cool and is loaded with theories from other viewers. Anybody here checked it out?

Quote:I was thinking the same thing as your husband. Sylar (or whoever the shady character was) is somehow developing or has developed some type of aggregate power.

I’m also thinking that the shady character, whether he is Sylar or not, might not be a bad guy. That’s a possibility that I’m drawing from the way these kinds of things play out. Did anyone see the shady character actually kill anyone?
Concerning Claire’s autopsy, I’m a little bewildered by the sequence of events also. It seems unlikely that a coroner would have left such an object lodge in the skull during an autopsy. It seems equally unlikely that a coroner would begin exhuming the chest cavity and then leave after only peeling back the abdominal and chest tissue. Also, after Claire came back to life there would have been massive bleeding. Furthermore, in Claire’s case, the head would have been examined, which means peeling back the tissue on the skull and removing the brain, which would seem to have drastic consequences to hero-stricken individuals (actually you’d be surprised how many things that would kill.) In spite of these seeming inaccuracies, it was a pretty good ending to the episode.

I recently got pointed toward the official site from another forum (I don't like "official sites" as a rule; too much flash and java that'll kill anything short of a cray supercomputer with a dedicated DSL line).
The graphic novels are here: http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/novels/
And check out Hiro's blog: http://blog.nbc.com/hiro_blog/

Claire will definitely be getting out of Dodge. Whether or not she bothers to get revenge remains to be seen.
What I am more concerned with is Hiro and his buddy heading towards Vegas. One of the last things we see is his friend looking at psycho mom on his cell phone. If they have a run in with her I'm thinking it will end badly.
That girl hanging around with Mohinder has got to be a plant. She is way too calm about the weird things that are happening. It is no coincidence that the apartment they broke into was cleaned out before the police got there. She didn't seem at all surprised by this.
Anyone else think the explosion in NY is not simply a nuke? My theory is some villain who is able to manipulate energy the same way Hiro messes with space-time.

. . . WOW. . .
Select to view spoiler:
FUTURE HIRO!!! With the Blade-style body-armour! And the soul patch! And the Katana strapped to his back!!
He's freakin' CABLE!!!
"You look different without the scar." I'm getting the impression that the future he comes from is pretty damn post-apocalyptic. . .
So it looks like Pete isn't just a flyer, he's Synch ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synch_%28comics%29). Interesting.
It looks like the black dude who works with glasses is some kind of power jammer --I'll be calling him Jammer (with apologies to Battlestar Galactica) until we learn his name.
Also: There's a new comic up at http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/novels/, and a hidden link to Claire's 4th-wall-breaking MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/clairebennet.
