I admit, I'm very torn about this. On the one hand she has a better chance of being developed as a character, if she doesn't end up as a love interest. This also improves her chances of sticking around much longer. On the other hand the scenes with her and Peter had a *very* romantic element and it's the first Heroes romance I would be actually rooting for. I don't really get it, to be honest.

This may be further proof of the La-La Land I live in, but I'm convinced this is a line they are feeding us because they got cold feet about presenting Emma to us as a love interest. Same thing with Gretchen. Everything still feels very romantic within the show, but their publicity is designed to calm people down... which gives an opportunity for the people who really want it to speak up, rather that the show only witnessing backlash and then quickly backing away from it (as with Mohinder/Maya). Which isn't to say this is deliberate strategy to judge how well we like it before we commit -- just that they have decided to shut p because they don't want to deal with it. Even if the current episodes are platonic, I would bet money on a kiss before the season finale.

Everything with Sylar!Nathan adds up the way you present it. I think, however, that the cop probably won't have any chance of success. The best I would hope for is the cop getting possessed by Sylar rather than Nathan, but I think this is clearly the moment when Sylar regains his body and probably loses a mental battle against Nathan. Possibly only temporarily, because it seems like there ought to be further ramifications to everything.

Is it wrong that I'm half hoping the flight scene would actually come first? I know it seems completely unlikely, since Peter appears to be trying to heal Matt... but I would't mind if fractures of his old power started coming back and he could hold onto two at a time. The other reason is because that mountain side looks potentially like it is overlooking the carnival, and that makes sense for how Peter might find Nathan. I don't know how, however, they would find out about Matt and trek off to save him. I don't know that in any circumstances, but it actually makes more sense to me for Peter and Nathan to meet at the carnival, have an emotional conversation, run off to the hospital, and then for Nathan to get possessed again.

Oh, I hope you are right. If not, I'll join you in Denial land and fan fic.

Yeah, I think you are right. After reading Kring's comments earlier, I was afraid for a second that THIS is the death scene and Adrian only plays a corpse or one of Sylar's mind games after the episode. But Adrian's comment reassured me a little.

No, and I think your spec makes sense. Perhaps we are over interpreting the pic of Matt and Peter.
