"it's Happening, It's Happening"

thanks kryssi, i guess that makes sense
kinda hard knowing whether they are using invisibility or not when it's only claude and peter alone on screen, right?

Claude punched Peter to stop him from seeing the future again and possibly becoming overwhelmed once more. That's the precognition ability. If he were using another ability at the time, you can't just punch someone to knock them out so easily... I'm sure Peter would subconciously defend himself and whoever was posing the threat would be instant toast. While prognosticating Isaac is blind, and the same goes for Peter... so he didn't see the hit coming.

A difference that I can see about Peter versus Isaac is that Peter is able to remember fully what he's seen in the future(although that earlier vision seemed more of a dream with bits and pieces of the future placed in it... not a full usage of his power... sort of hints at the future, which I believe is more common in reality than full on prognostication), whereas Isaac paints what he sees, and with the evidence given in the episodes, either he doesn't talk about anything beyond the image he's painted, or he isn't yet able to remember the entire vision even though he's not high anymore.

Perhaps Peter will end up being the one who teaches others to use their powers more fully. Synch, a character of the X-men universe, had the ability to mimic others abilities, and was always pushing himself very hard to see the extent of them. This annoyed some of the X-men, since Synch would sometimes use their powers better than they had been able to at the time. So maybe Peter's path will be similar, and help others to overcome their difficulties. Just a thought

That makes sense, and I do think that precognition was one of the abilities Peter was going through, but what was with the weird twitches? I recall something akin to electricity practically going through Peter as he shook. It looked to me as if every ability was hitting him at once. It would also explain him being partially-invisible; He wasn't able to hold onto one ability at a time.

But your theory still makes sense; Precognition WAS (to me) one of the abilities hitting him, so it would make sense for him to be blind and not see the hit, but I think the line "It's happening!" kind of conveyed that he thought he was going to blow up at that moment because of everything he was facing.

To me, at least XDD Then again, I have the misfortune of having like, tunnel vision and not letting go of my opinions =P

I'm glad that they removed the Terrorist theme of the show so it wouldn't revolve much around the Terror aspect of it and MORE FOCUS on the characters themselves.

I think 9/11 was probably some inspiration, 'cause it does have a similar feel.[/b]

"Sleeper Cell" (2005) is the BEST show that deals with Terror. It Ideals with aspects of belief and character.

"24" (2001) CTU is more of a Suspense Action Adventure.

Really? It's the opposite for me; I think the show's getting too large and too complicated. I say it should go off course every once in awhile, but come on. Chapter 15 was a bit ridiculous when it came to Hiro's part, and they didn't even show Peter. I say that they should focus a bit on one problem at a time (for now, the explosion) and have only a few subplots instead of having every single character have an entirely different story.

I doubt he'll be able to be slapped out of the actual thing. This was minor, the powers were barely colliding. As some said already, he was overreacting. But when that explosion's going down, it might be hard to just punch it out of him XD Especially if his benefactors are around. Hey, do you guys think that the amount of power he has will be doubled if he learns to use the power without the Hero with said power nearby, only to have every Hero nearby on the day of the explosion?

...if that makes sense?[/b]

Another thing I was thinking is that what if the heroes start to get new powers? (I'm remembering the first season finale of Mutant X. The characters basically got a Power-up) Perhaps if they start to get expanded powers and Peter, having absorbed so many of their powers, will get several of the "Power-ups" at once, causing him to possibly explode.

One question about that scene...
Peter's losing control and stuff right, and all his powers sorta show up, but then he starts to turn invisible??

Shouldn't he always be invisible around Claude? Or did he become invisible to the invisible? :P

So far I don't know if Claude's ability is permanent, or if he only uses it when he wants to?
If he can use it when he wants to, why does he do it ALL the time? Why not just walk down the street like a normal person?

It's funny how in some scenes Peter and Claude are standing in the street and people are walking around them, instead of into them. like when they're talking about Simone. They get bumped, but not so much as they should be [/b]

There's another question I have. When Claude and Peter are invisible, can people not hear them? People seem to be confused when they get bumped into by an unseen force, but they don't seem to hear anyone when that happens.



One final question: Peter has encountered Hiro (In the Subway) but that was a future version of Hiro. Does that mean that Peter didn't absorb his power because of the temporal issue? Also, Peter has been near Sylar when he was protecting Claire. Does that mean that he now has Sylar's powers?

As far as I can recall, Peter has encountered Nathan, Claire, Isaac, Sylar, Matt, and Hiro. Am I missing any?

Sleeper Cell is awesome. I haven't met many who watch it though. (I don't have cable so I have to wait until a month from Tuesday for S2 to come out on DVD.)

Hi all, I'm new!

just to say that peter, in the subway, did absorb hiro's power, otherwise he could not hear neither see him!

hid did absorb Hiro's power, Hiro traveled back in time but Peter stopped it. I think. Here's a heroes vid I did thats on you tubehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3AfwLk7kj0
