He also got contacts!

Also, he seems to be able to control his teleport/timetravel power in a
way that he doesn't currently.

I think that sort of sets up that this series will have additional
stories to tell once/if they save New York sometime later this year.

I think this is pretty obvious, right?It seems very similar to the
power of "Rogue" from X-men - only requring just proximity and not
physical touch.

It seems possible that he also enhanced the cop's power.   Previously,
the cop was only occasionally hearing voices.   Now, he is hearing
voices constantly, which he used to effect with his wife, and which
caused him problems in the C-Store

And without all that pesky "making the other person pass out and

Evil Glasses Guy said something to the effect that PsyCop's power
is advancing more quickly than he'd have expected.  We haven't seen
enough of the "wipeout" guy's power to know if he can be a booster
as well as a damper.

Yeah, I think the Cop just got a mindwipe of the recent events.  Not
a total wipeout like was done to the quarterback-rapist.  I'm not
sure if HRG* is good or bad at this point.  He certainly seems like
a bad guy but he did delay in shooting the FlyingCandidate, so
perhaps he wasn't so bad.  I don't think he is Sylar.  Doesn't quite
fit.

My theory is that Sylar has powers similar to Mimic-boy.  But if he
takes/absorbs/eats the brain of his victim, he gets to keep the
power permanently.

Of course, after the previous episode, I was convinced that
FutureHiro was played by a different actor than SuperHiro and that
Nikki's husband was the mindwipe guy.  But after this episode, I see
that I was incorrect on both of those.  I think we are going to find
out a lot more about Nikki's powers and past in the next episode.
Based on the preview, it looks like she had some sort of trauma in
her past that caused her to split into two Nikki's.  I still think
she's the one who killed and buried hubbie's gang members.  I wonder
where the $2 million went...?

Did you catch the long ponytail?

I D/Led mondays episode last night just so I could catch some more

Considering how well he spoke English, he would have to be from
pretty far in the future, I'd think.  Actually, I don't think a
adult native Japanese speaker would EVER be able to speak English
that well without an accent but that's just being nitpicky and I'm
willing to over look that.

Does that mean that he's not the same person as "Mr. Linderman"?

Looks to be appx. 18 to 24 months of hair growth. But *when* he quite 
getting it cut is key.

I agree about the lack of accent. Seems to be a bit of a fluke.

I noticed something else while rewatching mondays episode tonight.

Hiro holds his left arm across his stomach with his fist clenched 
loosely during the entire scene, never moving it at all, as if it were 
broken or somehow injured.

Perhaps a hint of events to come?

I doubt it.  The hotel lady didn't know what happened to FlyingGuy
in the morning.  Unless she was a very good actor, I suppose.
