Keeping with Heroes trend of totally predictable storylines . . . or as I like to call it – plausible storylines without insulting longwinded pointless mysteries, this .....I saw the Nathan/Peter thing from miles away. Everyone knew that Nathan was going to come back and fly Peter out of trouble......The real question is did Peter or Nathan survive? .....Of course, if Nathan really had it all figured out, ....The exchange could gone like this:
Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nathan: “Peter, fly away! Did your stint on the Gilmore Girls rot your brain?”
Peter: “Oh, yeah. I forgot, I’m god. Not only can lay waste to entire cities, but I can fly or teleport to any point on earth or time.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Parkman has to die.....
That is rich. You're right they never explained that Peter couldn't use more than one power at a time. The Heroes could have stopped the explosion any number of ways, inlcuding killing Peter or knocking him out, if the Hatian was around he could have just willed him unconscious.
Why wasn't Parkman wearing a vest?

One final point before I’m done, when Hiro had teleported to 1671 Kyoto, I’m assuming the lone Samuraion the hill was Kensei? And didn’t his eyes look a lot of like George Takei? Or am I just confused?
That's exactly what I was thinking, as we have not been told/shown what Hiro's father or Nathan's mother can do.
I'm assuming he's immortal until further notice.

I've been seeing a lot of posts here and over at the NBC board detailing disappointment with the finale. Most notably Sylar's escape and the lack of a major Peter/Sylar power display. Okay, so maybe the others should have been paying more attention to Sylar but come on, it was a little more important to see if Nathan was going to get Peter clear in time.
For those complaining about him surviving Hiro's attack the better question should be why didn't he prevent it? There was ample time to push Hiro away, after all he had no problems stopping those bullets with even less reaction time. I'm thinking he had the same vision that Isaac drew in the comic and knew he would survive. Either Hiro missed the magic kill spot or Sylar has other abilities that have not yet been revealed. Remember, he had already killed several people before Parkman was on the case.
With regards to a major throwdown between Peter and Sylar we already had a taste of that during the future episode. Besides, this show isn't an all out action slugfest anyway.
The only concern I have is that Nathan and Peter both will be back next season. Apparently Nathan released him and flew away before the explosion. As much as I like Nathan I really would have preferred the finality of a heroic sacrifice.

Thank you for posting what I was about to post. Keep in mind that this is a tv show. An expensive tv show, but a tv show nonetheless. Nowhere in their budget can they have a huge fx filled slamdown like in X-MEN: THE LAST STAND. And after that anal rape, why would you want to emulate that. So instead of going for the fx bonanza, they went for the emotional and spiritual climax of self sacrifice ala THE IRON GIANT.
My eyes were watery after that, so don't say that the finale was underwhelming.

I personally found it quite good... and not very underwhelming like people seem to want it. I hope they close out Nikki, DL, and Micah next season or their time on screen is minimal... allow more room for more Heroes.
I've got a feeling that Nathan might revert... since he is now the actual one of the senators of the state he has a rep to uphold. Might be Peter's conflict next season is that since he has all these powers to suppress them will start to get harder.
I can see Claire, Noah, Molly, and Mohinder working together next season, that is... in some form. Could be 2 different storylines but it could be something like... Mohinder finds the heroes with Molly and Noah finds them sanctuary away from the paper company.
(On a sidenote I still can't get that scene out of my head... "What am I thinking now? "Your last thought" KABOOM!)
