OMG! HOW CAN YOU STILL NOT BE CONVINCED THAT THAT KID IS SYLAR'S BROTHER. THAT'S WHY HE KNOWS ALL THAT STUFF. THAT'S WHY HE GOT THE CART AND BIRD WATCHING TREATMENT. THAT'S WHY HE KNOWS WHERE THE GUY LIVES NOW. Because it's his father too. Even the line "Maybe I reminded him of you" screams BROTHER!!!!! And the reason the kid isn't freaked is because he's a junior serial killer in the making, and like Sylar he just wants someone he can relate to. When it is revealed that the kid is Sylar's brother I'm coming back here to rub it in like a brilo pad ( ... )

Hmmm... Angela never crossed my mind. That's an awesome guess! I don't even remember Hana, and I watched season 1 like five times. I guess I need to watch it again. I still have a slight feeling it's Arthur, but that's a LOOOOOONG shot.

In my opinion, I'd say this was the best Heroes episode (season 3) yet, besides the one where Sylar's son gets blown up, etc. I agree, the India thing and Tracy thing was a bit ridiculous, but I love the introduction of [very few, as in two] new characters that have interesting powers, and the ending was AWESOME. It's finally getting addicted again. I'm so excited for an all HRG episode.

Season 3? I thought this was Season 4? Yeah, season 4 is leaps and bounds better than season 3.

Oh, my head hurts now. No wonder it came back so fast.

I think Sylar's a Rebel. that would be one of those nice unexpected things that, we all know, Heroes' scriptwriters love so much:)

I know, I know...everyone on Heroes is related. Maybe I'm just in denial because I don't *want* the kid to be Sylar's brother. It would be a stupid, over done reveal.

*And* it would make previous scenes look like nonsense. I mean, say you're the mom, Mary Campbell...a crazy man breaks into your house looking for the father of your son (who happens to live a few doors down). He starts to torture some guy to get this information and threatens you and your son. Do you:

A. Tell the lunatic everything you know about his father's whereabouts as well as the fact that your son is his brother. After all, maybe he won't kill you all if he knows you're family.

or

B. Sit there wide-eyed and deny having knowledge about anything for no good reason.

Yes, because yesterday's episode with Tracy proves they would never make characters do stupid things in order to progress the plot...oh wait...

And without him being the brother, none of the stuff about him going on trips with him in the wagon makes sense. Even if this woman hadn't bonked this man (which clearly she did because they have a child together :p) She knows him reasonable well for her child to be going on 5am trips with him. And she still didn't speak up. "Here's everything you want, have a nice day Mr. Killerman". *waves*

And the boy had Sylar's father current address memorized. I don't memorize the new addresses of people who used to live on my block (unless they my daddy!). Face it, from the moment he used his power and didn't set off Sylar's lie detector when he said "I know where your father is" I knew the kid was his brother.

See, the vibe I got from the Luke's stories was less mom-approved birdwatching and more strange neighbor takes unnatural interest in young boy without mom's knowledge.

Before sunrise? Who doesn't know where their child (small enough to fit in a wagon) is before sunrise? Let go of your false hope.

Luke didn't ride in the wagon. He mentioned that the guy used an old wagon to cart around his bird watching stuff. Then Sylar said that he remembered riding in the wagon.
