Heroes Creator Solves Finale’s Biggest Mystery

You’ve been wondering, we’ve been wondering, and you have to figure that Niki, Claire, HRG/Noah, Matt, et al, were wondering, too. At the conclusion of the Kirby Plaza skirmish on Heroes’ first-season finale, why didn’t Peter just fly his explosive self up, up and away, instead of making Nathan take one for the team, as well? Presented by TV Guide with that burning question, series creator Tim Kring pauses before saying, “You know, theoretically you’re not supposed to be thinking about that.”

When assured that viewers are, Kring confirms that â€â€? as many have theorized â€â€? radioactive Peter’s other powers were “incapacitated” at that pivotal moment, and “somewhere in there is the explanation” for having Nathan grab his bro and do the “flying man!” thing. “But the real explanation is that we wanted Nathan to show up and [save the day]!”

“Yes, I will admit that there’s a very tiny window of logic there,” Kring continues with a laugh. “But what can I say? It’s requires the proverbial suspension of disbelief.” Which, when airing opposite 24, a season finale is certainly allowed. â€â€? Matt Webb Mitovich, with additional reporting by Michael Logan

    Nathan is dead, even if he managed to let Peter go and fly off he would of been caught in the bomb, the bomb is supposed to take out New York, that in its own right is a big radius. Peter and Hiro will not die, they can teleport to another time at any time to there liking. Claire is not as important as it looks, Peter learnt enough without her. Who was Claude hiding in Company Man? Why was Sylars body not where the blood was trailing from? And who could possibly be worse than Sylar?

    I think that they shoulda had Niki knock that little pansy-assed, insecure, UNWORTHY, momma’s boy the eff out. HRG was there, he knew Peter’s ability would’nt work if he was unconcious (VERY smart, remember. Also, he worked for O.W.I for 14 years). No conciousness, no boom. Up yours, Tim Kring, for effin up a SUPERB story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I agree with kazmeyer. Even at the time I kind of “knew” Nathan was going to drop in and fly him up.

    Now, I am also assuming that Nathan is dead, and Peter is alive.

  4. Michael says:

    First of all, it’s Kring’s f’in story, and he can do what he wants with it. Second, I wasn’t as dissapointed in the Sylar/Peter because it was obvious Peter didn’t have full control of his powers, making the radioactive/flaming hands from “five years gone” a no show. The battle from that episode (I can only imagine what that fight looked like with them both having the regen power) occuring at a later date (you know, when Peter’s repitore of powers has grown). There is no need to be negative at all about this episode or Kring.

    I really wanna know who molly walker cant see.

  6. Bonez says:

    Maybe the person who is worse than Syler is Grandma Petrelli! LOL!!!!!

  7. Leuron says:

    Kane is the one worst than Sylar, and he has the power to control insects because he is like one (can live for very long time)
