All good points Action!

My thoughts are that Nathan is starting to chicken out, so I put him in the decidedly anti-bomb faction in this loop.

If Ted is stunned, or frozen, I don't think we'll see him go nova. Hey.. do you know someone with freezing powers? Shocked

I'm thinking Peter's going to be Mr. Boom, just because he's still jumping into situations without thinking about the ramifications of his actions. He's put himself next to Ted this last episode, and is now learning about the power Ted keeps under control. What's to say that he doesn't keep it totally that way, and loses his control at a critical moment?

I'd have to say that Claire's got some serious choices to make.

1) Side with HRG, and try to help him bring down OWI.

2) Side with Peter, and try to help keep him from going nova.

3) Side with Nathan, stop HRG, assist Linderman, and basically bring NYC down to what we saw in '5 years gone'

Quite a mind twist for a Texas cheerleader..

Here's a question...

In the "Five Years Gone" timeline, do we think that F. Sylar possessed Ted's ability? That is to say, when F. Sylar existed during the time of the explosion in HIS time, did he claim Ted's brain?

I don't know if there's enough evidence or not to say either way - just because Nathan told the world that Sylar was the bomb doesn't mean that he actually had the ability. If F. Sylar never claimed Ted's ability, then I would say that that's a very big change in the timeline right there, making that change number 2 (in addition to saving Claire).

Thoughts?

ok I just wanted to throw a quick idea out there... What if the bomb is a big hoax orhcestrated by Linderman involving a few other specials?
First let's assume that NY is basically deserted as seen in Peter's 'dream vision'

Ok then there's Candace who can cast illusions.. That not only 'hide' her but the environment as can be seen when she 'hides' Simones body and takes on her pesona. She would be doing the brunt of the work ie making it look like one big explosion. (She may need some help from an unknown heroe who can amplify other's powers.)

Next there is Micah who erases/destroys all digitial/video/electronic machinary in the vicinity of NY. (or it could be Ted using his 'new' refined power of the EMP.)

and Finally there is the Haitin who erases/manipulates the minds of all of those that are present.

All of this is so that Linderman can get Nathan elected into the presidency so that he can get all those with special powers 'registered' and he'll know where they are so he can use them for his own personal gains......

Ok it's a REALLY, REALLY far-fetched scenario but wanted to share.

I've been looking for a way to say this correctly for days, but this will just have to do, for now.

I believe that Five Years Gone was a Future Based off of the events we'd seen up to the point where Hiro teleported into the future. From that point on, it was basically on auto-pilot based on the choices that were most likely to happen based on the current events. Peter blew up, Nathan got elected/started throwing specials into tracking systems and whatnot, etc. It's ALMOST what's going to happen.

Based on this, I'd say there was a big enough chance that Sylar was going to kill Ted (as nothing Hiro did once he got back from the future changed or had much of an effect on any of Sylar's own actions) that yeah, he probably had his power.

But Sylar survived. Why? Because, up until that point, Hiro didn't have Isaac's comic book. So he would have gone forward, firstly not thinking to go after Sylar, and secondly not knowing that Sylar kills Ando. So he wouldn't have had the courage to save Ando until it was too late.

Now, he's got his guide back (the book). He knows what to do, where to go, and when to go there and do it. He just doesn't know what to say. But as long as he follows the general idea of the comic, and doesn't say anything TOO much out of character, he should be okay, and safe from turning into the man he saw as his future self.
