RobbieOC:
They got rid of Molly because the actress is growing faster than the character should be. Presumably.
Lines:
They do that. They can have some time pass and then bring her back, like they did with Walt in Lost, but that could be years or not at all. Who knows.
I am excited for a new villain. I wasn't impressed with the powers of the level 5 guys, minus the guy Peter was stuck in, and Sylar is in a transition period now. I can see him becoming the "good" guy who can sometimes cause trouble or be an ass, which are usually the more interesting good guys.

It's not contrived at all when you consider that way back in Season 1 Linderman said he had been controlling Nikki's entire life - presumably he was doing the same with Tracy - and seeing as how the explanation is that Linderman had the doctor genetically engineer a whole bunch of "Nikkis"... well, I just don't see how that's particularly contrived. Contrived would be that she survived the fire by flipping into a different personality with ice powers and freezing the room around her and then forgetting about Micah and getting a job for a Senator in the span of a few days.
EDIT: Oh and speaking of contrived, what the fuck is up with Nathan being able to SEE DEAD PEOPLE, or Linderman being a ghost, or... whatever the hell contrived reason they used to get Malcom McDowell back on the show?
imagist42:
I was pretty sure the implication was that Nathan is jacked up in the head. But maybe I'm thinking too much like a person not watching a show about people with superpowers.
Boro_Bandito:
Apparently in the online comic books and stuff there was a lady who could see the dead, she got killed by someone who leeched out other people's "auras" and became hungry for those with powers. *cough*ROGUE/SYLAR RIPOFF*cough*.
That reminds me, some of these powers are getting a bit out there to be "caused by adrenaline" though like in Mohinder's experiments. I really think that that was a shitty "scientific" discovery. Lacks verisimilitude* after a certain point. Sure, people hopped up on adrenaline like mothers can gain super strength to save their babies or some shit but stopping time? I realize I'm being too picky here, but its distracting me a bit.
That said I don't think that it's just Nathan being fucked up, Linderman was a great idea for a villain, a mobster who could heal anything and yet was willing to kill millions? I'm only to happy for him to remain in the show, if nothing else I like the actor in all his cheesy goodness. Unless its Sylar, having come back in time with Hiro's powers and the ability to take on other people's forms like future Peter can, as well as become selectively invisible. But that would be soap-opera style silly.
