the way they stored Strain 138 of the virus. if something is dangerous enough to wipe out 93% of the worlds population, why put it in a glass vial? they should have put it in a plastic vial, becouse its harder to break if you accidentally drop it on the ground.

You make a good point... Then again, how do we know what the vial was made of? They show it dropping like it might break like glass - and that builds up tension; but it is possible it is something that just looks like glass and is actually the most indestructable substance the primatech can get their hands on..

My question is why they kept/created something like that at all, least of all in a safe where it could be so easily stolen by Peter/Sylar/Zane(when he was alive)/DL/Matt(could force someone to open it) and all the other unknown specials that could get in there no problem. Putting the lives of 6 billion people on the line by creating this thing is just insane, and not destroying it once you know it has no beneficial use is just as horrible.

When they locked Adam up they should have destroyed it then!

I've always wondered why Peter didn't just phase through the vault. Although, Adam wanted the vault open, so the virus would spread out. So, I guess Peter is really not a thinker...

Yeah, Peter should have just been like, "Adam, to make sure that you don't kill the population of the world, I'll phase through myself to prevent you from having any say in the matter." But that would require thought, wouldn't it? Oh well, the virus is gone so I guess we can all just stop complaining about how it was destroyed.

Plus, the whole end of this volume was wayyy rushed because of the writers strike. Oh writers strike you are the true super-villain of Heroes...

I totally agree, VBO

Get with the simple program here!

It was kept in a glass vial so that there was the potential for it to break. There was a potential for it to break so that Peter and Adam would have a storyline to follow.

Geez. lol

I totally agree though. This last season was crap. Simple storytelling, shallow plots, and really not all that imaginative.

Oh, and can you guess if Caitlin's going to make another appearance, or just be written off for good?

I'll take bets for the written off takers!

What's funny about the whole thing to me is that it was Hiro's father Kaito who made SURE that the stuff was kept, and not destroyed!! WTF was he thinking???
