Do anyone have the answers or theories to the following questions?:

1. How did Nathan come back to life after being shoot?
It wasn´t Linderman since he only was imaginary due to Maury Parkman. Immortal blood from Adam Monroe could be it. But that would ruin the show if a simple blood injection gives immortality(that would make Noah Bennet an immortal now since he got Claires blood in season 2).

2. Is Arthur Petrelli truly dead? Is it possible to permanently kill an immortal(Adam, Claire, Sylar, Arthur, Peter) without taking their powers away permanently like Arthur did with Adam? Doesn´t seem that way when H.R.G talked to the Haitian about killing Sylar. He didn´t know how which would mean temporarely power-loss due to the Haitian´s power isn´t enough. Remember that Peter exploded at the end of first season and yet he lived. There´s been a lot of talk about a bullet through the back of the head but that doesn´t seem like a permanent solution.

3. Why did Peter need Sylars power to understand how he could save the world?

4. How did Maury Parkman escape? He was comatosed and at the end of season two. Writers slip?

5. Will they show us the scary place the future becomes for powers?
Future Peter with scar talks to claire in s.3ep.1(and again with Nathan a few episodes later) about the horrible future for powers. A future where powers are hunted, being tested on, forced into hiding and placed in camps. Then when future Peter brings present Peter to that future which he wants to stop from ever happening it doesn´t seem like a scary place for powers. Powers are openly flying around in the city doing thier buisness... Hopefully they will adress this in the next volume "Fugitives".

1) Nathan was given a transfusion of regenerative blood.

2) Permanently? Possibly, but only if the bullet stays in his brain and he is buried without anyone removing it.

3) Because Peter isn't very bright.

4) Maury was a very skilled and powerful telepath. Escaping from a nightmare was something he learned how to do a long time ago.

5) That future is now no longer a possibility.

[Timmothy]

I will take a stab at this.

1.) Like Mathsorcerer said Nathan and Noah took a blood transfusion which I take only heals wounds once. To have wounds heal like an immortal all the time a person would have to have pure immortal blood running in their vains at all times.

2.) As for question two, even though I don’t like Arthur’s character, I hate to see an immortal die because of a gun shot wound in the forehead. In my opinion if Arthur’s character bites the dust like this it would do more damage to the story line than help it. Arthur kills Adam, and takes over for Mr. Linderman two awesome villains; then gets capped three episodes later. That to me is just bad writing.

3.) I am confused about this also. To me Peter and Sylar are very similar power wise. The only difference between them is Peter doesn’t kill others to take their powers. So taking Sylar’s powers to me just didn’t make sense because he doesn’t need them.

4.) I agree again with Mathsorcerer with this. Maury Parkman is the master of that game. I don’t think it would be hard for him to escape a new player of the games coma/nightmare.

5.) My theory is every time Peter and Hiro try to fix the problems in the future during real time it can change the Future entirely. So it doesn’t bother me that the future is different every time they travel to it.

I am hoping next season fixes a lot fo the loop holes and ties some story ends together. I like to see next season be a lot like season 1 more serious and well thought out.

The Haitian took away Arthur's powers, thus when he was shot, we was a mere mortal, and mere mortals don't survive bullets to the head. Of course this doesn't explain how Sylar and Claire came back from the dead after being stripped of their powers earlier, but you know, eh, Heroes Season 3 has been filled with plotholes, this is just one more.

1. I'm with Mathy on this one. Although, this has the implication that anyone that has had an injection of regenerator blood is for all intents and purposes slightly immortal. From what I know an injection can give someone the ability to heal from major trauma and hemorrhagic shock in hours, maybe minutes. Not only that but it severely retards ischemia and infarction as evidenced by no brain damage from lack of oxygen.

I don't see how it could have been anything other than the injection he had just after the explosion that healed him. If Maury had anything to give Nathan he would have given it to Arthur a long time ago. Therefore the source of the Linderman hallucination (Maury) and the healing have nothing to do with each other.

2. Technically speaking it is impossible to truly kill an immortal. Going back to season 1 Claire comes back to life and walks out after being dead for hours. Once the mind is reconnected to the body it can heal all trauma and cellular infarction. A little surgery and Arthur is back in play, depending on how bad the damage was.

3. My take was that Sylar's ability allowed one to understand, on a super-human level. It's been my position that he merely understands how an ability works and can replicate it in himself. Unfortunately he must apparently need to expose brain matter in order to visually assess the variables. I see how this could be useful to understand enough variables and predict what needs to change for a perfect future. However, while that might work in a Newtonian universe, it does not in a universe where quantum physics has a role. As Mathy said, Peter ain't the brightest crayon in the box.

4. Maury Parkman = Matt Parkman + 20 years of experience. Enough said.

5. The Future from our standpoint is dynamic and ever-changing. A single choice can result in a good future going horribly wrong. In my opinion a timeline is like a giant rope in the process of being braided. As choices are made the rope is braided a certain way, changing the position future choices. Future choices are arrayed like a giant spider's web, as choices are made these choices attempt to resolve themselves into a cohesive whole, the future as Hiro, Peter and others have seen it. This is why every time someone travels into or looks at the future it's different. As Claire put it, the future is not written in stone, it is highly dynamic and changes as choices are made in the present.

I'm not so sure that the blood transfusion he had earlier would still have had an effect when Nathan was shot. It wasn't Linderman (duh) or Maury.
The moment future Peter walked into the room, he didn't seem worried at all. It had to be because of him.

[Eidetic]

Wouldn't the future where people are hunted because of their powers still come info affect? Nathan is going after everyone with powers (shown in the last part of Dual, and in a TV preview of 'Fugitives') so this whole, 'camp or kill them' future could easily still be coming out.

[hcc2503]

In season one, five years into the future, meta-human were fugitives, but for different reason, as some people says, whats mean to be, is mean to be.

[karambit]

The destiny of meta-humans is to be hunted? Compelling.

On a side note, would meta-humans ever be accepted in modern society? Abilities such as Ted's and Matt's make this a hard question to answer. Somethings like simple Flight and telekinesis are all well and good for normal people to have, but try convincing anyone that you should be allowed to live out a normal life when you can persuade anyone to do as you wish or can alter the past at whim. It's not fair to the rest of us.

Personally I would fall on the side of Nathan for this one. Bag and tag everyone, and then let the harmless ones go. The world is dangerous enough with normal people in it.

The real problem are US, People, human being, Are self destructive, and also destructive, we kill nature, kill everything in the way of "evolution" and "society". Who are we to decide what have to be destroy in order to evolve?. The goverment can kill anyone who interfiere with "national security", lie us, as dumb kids. And this world is in danger of extintion. The only thing who does all this are human, we should consider as "virus".
