That doesn't make sense. Why would Bennett even be after Nathan if he didn't know he had a power?
Honestly, it was probably a plot hole they covered up later after realizing it.

Did you watch the episode?
They were trying to abduct him to convince him to become Linderman's pawn in the election. It is never explicit or implicit that Bennet knew he had a power. The entire purpose of Nathan/Vegas was not to "bag and tag" a Super, it was to ensure his political allegiance with Linderman.
Bennet also clearly looks shocked when Nathan flies away.
Tom:
The Haitian must be like Leech, but without the morlock deformities. Odds are, and hopefully, they borrow more from X-Men.

I just rechecked it to verify what I remembered and I'm fully confident that you're talking out of your ass about this.
For one: Why in the Hell would they be approaching him about that? First and foremost, Bennet has no clue Linderman is involved in the company. This is clear when Matt later brings it up to him and he has no idea what Matt's talking about. They made a pretty big deal about it. Second and about as important: Nathan was already in Vegas to speak to Linderman about his campaign. Why would Linderman send Bennet and the Haitian after Nathan when Nathan is already there to cooperate with Linderman in the first place AND Linderman had just acquired blackmail material on Nathan through Jessica? Your theory not only makes absolutely jack shit for sense, it's not even the slightest bit founded in the episodes this occurred in.
Not to mention, half of Bennet's dialogue makes it pretty clear they're after a powered individual. "Do you have any idea who I am?" "Better than even you do."/"Just take the one" imply pretty heavily they're talking about Nathan's abilities. He might not have known what Nathan's ability was, but he most assuredly knew Nathan had one.
