We need to eliminate 1 more in addition to Maya.

anyway i have a feeling Angela will die, especially if the next volume is Redemption.

she wont be killed, it will be self-sacrifice, maybe to save everyone and end it all. leaving her legacy to her sons to right all the wrongs of the past, and redeem what has been done. i thought peter might be killed since there was talk of milo and hayden having tension on set, but it doesnt fit in with the story. if any of the sons die it will be nathan, for the sake of redemption. but i dont see that either as the forgiveness within the family has become a pivotal point in their story, and it wouldnt fit to end it so abruptly. there is no real way for him to go down in glory, he needs time to fix all the mess he made. angela is the one with the biggest burden.

as mentioned above, angela had a dream in the church and asked peter to get everyone together. she saw what was coming, and going to Coyote Flats or whatever it was called, where her family died, wasnt the whole part of it, she took them there to show everyone how it began, and to guide them on how to fix it, try again but do it right, not like she did. “1961″ was a glimpse of what angela has in mind, it wasnt her ultimate goal. i believe she may have seen her own death, if she saw one of her sons die, she wouldnt be as “happy” as she is. shes not happy but shes not her usual morbid oh-there-is-no-hope self. she has hope for once.

i seriously cant wait for next week, and im glad there appears to be another season, although i hope in a way its the final season. the series has been so awesome, i’d hate for it to be ruined with a lack of ideas and a go-nowhere story. especially if this major conflict gets resolved.

as for sylars fate…i dunno yet. hes a great villain, but how much more evil can you get without being defeated for good? he cant/wont be turned, hes been through too much and crossed over too far.
