As for Hiro's time traveling/teleportation, he did mention to his friend that no matter how many times he tried, he just couldn't save the waitress. I think his time travel has a limit to how long he can stay out of his own timeline. Remember when his future self went back to give Peter the message? If he had all the time he wanted, why not just stick around and explain everything that's going on, except leave a cryptic message of "Save the cheerleader, save the world."
I agree that having any kind of time traveling power is a paradox waiting to happen. However that could also be an unexplained aspect of Hiro's abilities to prevent such a paradox from occuring. He DID call himself at work, remember? I think Hiro tried going back several times in order to try and save Charlie (the waitress) but when faced with the fact that her death was inevitable and beyond his ability to save, he couldn't accept that. When he was about to kiss her, I think his power was saying "time's up" and jetted him back forward to his original time leaving Charlie standing in the middle of Tokyo wondering WTF?? I'd guess it was from there he tried going back again, and doing it all over again in another manner to try and save her before finally giving up. Maybe they'll elaborate it more in the last episode.
Sylar eats brains. At least that explains the trail of empty skulls he's left behind throughout the season. It might sound odd, but I think he can sense what is wrong with any given person or object and find that one thing that's different. That's how he can fix watches so easily. He can also sense the powers of others, that thing in their brain that makes them different. Seems he also has the ability to eat that thing and gain whatever power it's attributed to.
Peter is my favorite character. He reminds me of myself. Jack of all trades, and a master of none.
I don't think Mr. Bennet has a power. It seems the nameless black guy that's his shadows has the ability to enter and control minds, though not in the same way as the cute chick that works for him. She can command people and they obey. The other guy seems to be able to do all sorts of things; supress powers, erase memories, create new ones, etc.
As for the Niki storyline, I could honestly care less for that. I love the fact that the kid has a techno-power, but the story is boring. She seems more like a villain than a hero. So she has an alternate personality that also happens to be her dead sister AND be incredibly strong. Bah, I've seen worse at daycare.
Anyhow, sorry for the long comment. Not many people I know here watch heroes so no one to talk to about it. hehe Long live Heroes!
I think Sylar not only eats the power that its attributed to, but makes himself BETTER at it somehow. Like his telekinesis was WAY better than Brian Davis (unless Davis was just out of practice or something).
You're right about Hiro. I forgot he called himself at work... but that wasn't even the part that bugged me lol.
For some reason, I never considered that his time travel had a time limit. That would definitely explain why Hiro disappeared, and showed up back in the present--maybe near the same spot?
I figured the reason that Hiro came back from the future for so brief a time and gave that cryptic message was not necessarily for time limit, but so he didn't cause a paradox--giving the WHOLE story might create one, but a cryptic message would be just enough to get Peter where he needs to be. But you could be right too.
As for Niki's sister Jessica, I'm thinking Jessica had the super power to be incredibly strong. Maybe? Well, I like it ^_^;
