Me either, and that's something worth looking forward to. I'm still hoping that they use this to make his character tougher and darker like the future Peter, but like Irish pointed out, it may be hard to do it convincingly.
 
He got Ted's (nuclear man) ability without ever touching him, although I wonder why he didn't have Sylar's ability to see how things work, he had gotten the telekinesis power when they first met so it's kind of strange he only just got it now.

Thats what I mean...if peter absorbs powers without meaning to, then he should have had Sylars hunger since middle of season 1!
 
I'm sure at some point someone in the show asked what was up with that and they came up with a reason for it.
 
My first post in this thread,i wonder 1 thing from episode 4,what did Future Peter mean by that present Peter must meet Sylar to get his abilities to prevent that the same mistakes Future Peter made,didnt happen again?

Did i miss something or havent it been answered yet?

No he shouldn't have.

The TK power was the one that Sylar used almost exclusively since getting it. One of the things most comics do to contain characters with Empath abilities of any kind is set the restriction that they can only use one power at a time. When they are well trained then they can switch relatively quickly but for the most part its a conscious change which is why Peter couldn't just fly himself out of Baxter Plaza and had to have Nathan escort him away. What happens is for powers like healing they kick in automatically so when those are happening he is powerless to do anything else which is why you see healing occur usually after the fight and not during for most characters.

Due to the fact that Sylar was using, therefore calling forward the TK abilities, that would be the power that Peter would automatically absorb. Sylar never used his given ability unless he was removing an ability from someone which he never did in front of Peter so there would be no opportunity to gain that ability. It the same thing with the hyperactive hearing that he stole from the mechanic or the incredible memory he stole from Charlie or even the ability of Alchemy from Bob. Peter doesn't have these because Sylar never used them in his presence.

The hunger is a side effect of Sylar's power, a questioning of how the powers function, why they do what they do. He has no need for it while using another power.
 
I don't care if no one else likes it, I'm still loving it. Finally bought season 2 last night.

Well then that narrows it down to the power has to be USED in proximity of peter in order to gain that particular ability. I can live with that...
 
That is how I always understood it it worked or else he would absorbed a ton of powers by just being in Baxter Plaza or Level 5.....the powers must be in usage to be gained...
 
I liked it, too. I'm glad they prevented Sylar from becoming the dumbest character on the show by implying that he's not quite trusting of Arthur and actually saved Peter.
 
Ah, a man after my own perverted heart!!!! I had all sort of NSFW or anywhere else for that matter going on in my mind!!!! Especially on the plane! Dammit, I am so going to Hell if there is one!

"We're gonna die!!!.... Lick it!!!"

Wait. That didn't happen in the episode? I must have dozed off. :monkey3

That happened in the episode I was watching in my head..........but damn, I love me some Kristen Bell

Was it just me, or could Claire just give Peter a little bit of his blood and heal him instantly???????????

So that did that count for Future peter using powers in front of present peter? Cause he used a bunch of powers in front of peter....plus when Present peter got Sylars power in the future.....there was a huge battle where Speed, and the fear strengthening power were used.

ALSO...how did future peter die? Couldnt present peter just have pulled whatever out of the back of Future peters neck and ASKED him what the hell he had been talking about before he died?
