Episode Reviews/Discussions (POSSIBLE SPOILERS)For your take on the latest episodes, news on upcoming episodes, as well as your own reviews etc. BEWARE: THREADS MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!
So we know:
Ando + Matt Parkman = Larger area of mind reading
Ando + Daphne = Travel through time
Ando + Peter = ?
Ando + Nathan = Travel through time??
Ando + any other metahumans.
Hm!! Just some things to wonder about for next season.
I am also intrested to see how Ando's powers work out around others. Remember he kills Hiro or atleast it looks like he does in the future with red lighting coming out of his hands. So he must have some sort of hidden skill that comes with his power.
Ando is a booster, so with any metahuman, is goping to be like.... more of it, Nathan could finish on the moon, ot jupiter, and die ofcourse. Hiro, now powerless, what can he do? too sad. Maybe Ando can give back powers too? who knows.

That would be perfect I think. If Ando is some how able to bring Peter's and Hiro's powers back by super charging them or something along those lines. That would save lot of episodes for the volume 4. I hate to see a long road ahead of Peter and Hiro again just so they can get their powers back.

Re: Ando and ??
Some powers do not lend themselves to being supercharged, like Claire's; not much difference between really fast regeneration and instant regeneration. Baron Samedi's power is another--what, would he be more invulnerable?
Speaking of the Baron....I wonder just how invulnerable he was, hrm? Sure, he could shrug off bullets, small explosives, and being flown into cars but could he shrug off powerful fuel-air explosions? Being thrown into a building at Mach 2? A rail-gun projectile travelling at 2km/sec? (yes, such a device does exist)
Like I mention elsewhere, there were still some viable doses of the formula in the lab at Pinehearst. If someone were to time-travel or teleport into the lab before the explosion and make off with a dose, Hiro would be able to recover his power. Apparently, a metahuman who loses their power can regain their previous power via the formula, as Peter did.

Re: Ando and ??
I concur. Mundanes injected with the formula get a power at random. Metahumans who have lost their powers seem to regain the power they used to have.
I wonder what happens if you inject a metahuman who already has a power with the formula? Does their power change into a different one? Do they get an extra power? We may never know.

Since "heroes" is fiction, anything can happen, however, I'd like to compare with athletes who inject esteroids, and finally they could die of cancer. As Shanti, Mohinder's sister, she die because her malfunction of her power or ability.
Ando is more than just a power-booster. As we saw when Hiro visited the future in the beginning of the season, Ando can also use his powers offensively (he killed Hiro with it).

Re: Ando and ??
I suspect that was a different power that that version of Ando gained under different circumstances....but I have insufficient evidence either to prove or disprove this at this time.
