That showed that clip on Regis and Kelly yesterday or Friday (so before the episode aired) and it was to show her two sides. And the actress said it was Jessica taking over, not Niki.

Hmmm, I thought that the key there was that Niki had superpowers (I read an article about Niki getting another power besides CRAZY!twin).

So for now I'll stay on the fence about it

It has been suggested (on other sites) that Niki is the one that has the super strength power, and Jessica has some kind of projection power, which allows her to take control of someone's body. Some say that Niki doesn't know that she has a power, and Jessica has been using that to her advantage.

I like that idea, and it makes sense that this is how Jessica ended up in Niki's body before she died (there was a grave right? I missed the flashback episode!).

It'll be interesting to see if Niki has yet another power, but I have to say I like Heroes avoidance of giving characters OMG ALL TEH POWERS EVAR! and keeping it simple instead.

SPOILER


Read TV Guide for next week, an interview says that another character will die this season... someone who's been with us since the beginning. Oh, specifically a HERO will die, so I'd say Simone/ Mohinder isn't an option.


END SPOILER
/Are you on the List?

Okay...so does Mr. Bennett have a power or not? Is he a hero? I've always wondered about this -- it's as if he has some kind of super speed because it seems like he get from Point A to Point B *snap* just like that.

So here's a theory.

Linderman didn't put the fake sword in the museum -- FUTURE HIRO DID!

Why?

Maybe in an alternate timeline, Hiro loses the sword or somehow ruins it, so Future Hiro arranges for present Hiro not to have the sword (plus Future Hiro gets his), and then draw him to Linderman, thereby meeting other Heroes enroute.

It's a little crazy, but things like this have been done before in time travel fiction.

Now the question is...who the eff is this Linderman?

I'm not saying that Niki doesn't have other powers, that'd be awesome by the way, but from the show it was my impression that Jessica was the one acting out via Niki in that particular scene. Or maybe the disussion on Regis and Kelly was just based off what we currently know. So that it wouldn't be a spoiler and what not. I dunno!

Good question about HRG, I just assumed his agency with no initials had resources to get him places.

While it's a possibility Future Hiro seemed pretty particular about not messing up the time line. I'd think it's too risky, although now that they're all in NYC, they're all heading to Vegas again (just in time to go back to NYC for the big boom I assume)

All we know about Lindermann now is that he's rich, likely owns the casino Nathan stayed in, buys politicians, and collects art/antiques, and is not a very nice person. I see much potential for super villian there... Lex Luthor much?

Oh yeah, I know we're just guessing! I asked my boyfriend and he said he thought that was Jessica too so Niki must have another power dammit!

Mr. Bennett said that he worked for someone....Could it be Linderman?

IMHO, this is something like the X-Men/Marvell Comics that there are at least two different "sides" forming for their own purposes. And just who or what those "sides" are has yet to be disclosed.

[Drolefille]

It's possible, he had access to Nathan in Linderman's hotel, but he seems to have access to everywhere.

Everyone I know refers to his organization as the Agency Without Initials because of a line in the earlier half of the season, but I like the thought of that. As we seem to be going to Linderman and Vegas again, I suspect we'll find out soon...

Bennett said he worked for an organization that had no initials. At this point, it could be Linderman since we've yet to meet the infamous man.

I agree that it's similar to X-Men/Marvell Comics in their joining of two sides.
GOOD SIDE: Isaac, Hiro, Ando, Claire, Mikah, Simone, Matt, Mohinder, Peter

To me, Niki is a wild card b/c of her inability to control Jessica. Nathan is a wild card b/c he does what benefits him & not necessarily what is right. HRG & the Haitian are unknown factors b/c we still don't know who they are working for. As for the new HEROES like Nuclear guy, Technopath girl, & Invisible man, who knows.

BAD SIDE: Sylar is the one we definitely know of so far.

Who is Technopath girl? Maybe I missed that episode.

She was in the special extra thing that played during Deal or No Deal last Monday. I think you can see it on NBC's site or on youtube.
