YES. I was sitting there going, "Dude, you're stupid if you fly him up there and die. She's got a gun. Take the gun and shoot him."
I am looking forward to whoever it is who can see the girl when she tries to look for him. (I don't think it's someone that's been introduced or mentioned yet.) And I almost hope that someone stole Sylar's body vs. him still being alive, though that's probably not it. (I'm starting to get sick of him. I liked seeing his flaws when he was with his mom, but I'm bored with him now.) I really hope it doesn't get too much like X-Men though, because in the 5 years in the future episode, Nathan/Sylar wanted to exterminate them. Now that those two are "dead" and that won't be the future, there's still the possibility that they could have whoever ends up being president wanting to do it and I don't think it should be done.
About the post above, I'm not sure they are contagious necessarily, I think they just don't develop right away, but they do over time. It seems to be genetic, with the parents of the "heroes" having powers themselves. (Noah doesn't have any powers. If they had been contagious, he could have gotten them from Claire. Her real parents, however, have powers, as well as Peter and Mrs. Petrelli.)

(though, are powers contagious? they seem to have dropped a few hints now indicating that they may be. but more on that later) He had a name nothing else really. Most of those names came from a DNA repository. We know that Sylar clearly isn't Patient Zero, if fact he is a member of the second generation (assuming that there haven't been heroes since the 1600s) Linderman, Angela, Simone's Mom, possibly Pappa Petrelli (though I still have my doubts) and possibly Nakamura senior make up the first generation. If there was a Patient Zero, then obviously he would be a member of this generation. And he would probably be quite powerful. So, here's the question, do we know the name of Sylar's father? Is it possible that Sylar's name is actually Gabriel Gray Jr.? Could Suresh have been looking for Gabriel Gray Sr. and came across his son by mistake?

Actually, there's a hole in that theory that cropped up in the ending that leads to a potential theory I have. For one, no one ever said patient zero meant "the first," it could be more an Alpha and Omega thing, the beginning and the end of the string, with Sylar and Peter representing those ends. Notice that there were absolutely no duplicate powers. There were some vaguely similar ones, but no two people at the same time displayed the same powers (Short of Peter's mimicry). I get the impression they took a lot of the idea from the comic Rising Stars, where there is a set list of designated powers. I think the "Patient Zero" line is more along that than an actual chronological order of manifestation.
Though, if your theory turned out to be true and it were a matter of chronology, Sylar could still, technically, be the first due to Hiro's accidental journey to the past. To our knowledge, Sylar's parents didn't have any powers. His mother, at the least didn't. Many of the others, particularly the ones visibly younger than Sylar, had clearly defined lineage with powers (To the point that Linderman was even manipulating family lines to produce Micah, ala Mr. Sinister). With Hiro's journey back to feudal Japan, the lineage splits elsewhere. Over the course of four hundred years, a family line can be completely diluted to the point of being physically unrecognizable, but still carry certain genetic traits. If Hiro were to have a child back in that era, Hiro could be the first historically while not literally being the first powered individual to have developed. This is a completely stretched theory and not something I entirely believe, I think it's 80% likely the "Alpha and Omega" concept," especially after Charles Deveaux's comments, but it is something to chew on.

Come on guys, you gotta admit I kind of called it...
I mean there's always him surviving and all that, but I'm pretty impressed with how close I was. I said that back on March 2nd!
He's obviously not going to be dead and will come back at some moment and everyone will cheer and smile at their tv sets.
Scandanavian War Machine:
out of everything that happened in finale, the thing i am the most excited about is Hiro's trip to feudal Japan. that's the one thing that happened that i didnt predict ahead of time in some respect.
it was a total curve ball for me so i'm looking forward to seeing it played out.

So, are you looking for a pat on the back or a cookie? With the eight million theories we've all thrown around on here and elsewhere, some shit's gotta eventually occur along those lines. I can name over a dozen things I predicted that happened versus many I predicted wrong. Welcome to the world of serialized fiction. Throw out enough theories and the occasional instance has to stick, it's just the law of averages.
