Because if Peter went back in time and took his old ability, he would loose it again as soon as he tried and take another one.
All he could do there, is to tell his old-self not to trust and touch his farther, but that's about it.
And that will certainly not happen, cause it would detach the whole storyline.

He cannot take more than one ability at the moment, until either Matt's baby reactivates it or Ando supercharges him.
And even those are just theories.

I think your almost there but your missing the fact that it took both peter and sylar to get them out combined trying as peter was still holding on to the anger of sylar killing nathan, and once he realised that sylar had truly changed he realised he could release him as peter was the one with matts ability.

Peter's probably gonna die in the next episode. His mother says he dies… in his vision of syler saving the chick he's not there, and that will be the “shocker.” I'm almost positive. Iron Maiden chick will show her powers next episode at a pivitol point. Stacy will help save bennet. The world might just blow up if the don't renew heroes… personally I hope they blow up the world if that happens it'd be the best ending to a show ever and a big screw you to the network.

Same here. I never liked Samuel's character at all !

No I deliberately didn't mention Peter because I was addressing why the wall existed in the 1st place from the perspective of Sylar. Peter being there added to the complexity of the prison SYLAR was in from the moment he became aware of him, but if you watch again the wall was broken by Sylar, not Peter. Peter joined in because by that time it had become BOTH their prisons, with Sylar holding shut the barrier until he has faced his demons – part of which are dependent on Peter facing his demons regarding Sylar and Nathan….. but I completely agree that there were 2 battles going on. Sylar breaking the wall and Peter needing Sylar to break the wall so that he could get them both out – both reliant on the other.

I think provided her brain is intact and is alive (which basically means receiving blood from the heart, ergo must be connected via blood vessels) I would say her brain could grow another body. The brain is the most complex organ. If she can grow another toe she could grow another heart.

We don't know how much time needs to pass before her cells will stop regenerating after seperation of her head from her body. If she was truly immortal, then you could cut her head off, bury it in Tokyo and then bury her body in Los Angeles for 10 years, then bring them back together and if she regenerated then it's safe to say that necrosis doesn't limit her ability.

So far I've not seen anything in her or any others with similar abilities to indicate this is the case.

Good comment there, thanks for your answers mate
Didn't really see it that way you're describing it.
I was just wondering how that wall got there all of a sudden, didn't seem to make sense..

But one thing still bothers me, when Peter touched Syler to get into his head, the wall wasn't finished (otherwise he couldn't have touched him), but when they woke up, it was.
By that it means Matt completed his job.
But doesn't he care at all for Peter?
It looked like Matt just shove him aside and leave him there.

Anyway, as Talentedfool already pointed out, Sylar needed Peter to get free.
He was in there for 6 years already when Peter joined him, and he didn't really seem to mind being in there, it looked more like he'd made peace with it by doing what he loves, fixing watches.
So I think, if it weren't for Peter, Sylar either had gone insane or killed himself (i don't think that would actually have any consequences, i imagine it to be like in Groundhog Day).
The point is, Sylar would most likely not have gotten outta there without Peter's aid.
So if the copy guy had killed Peter, Syler would (probably) have been trapped in there forever.

hey can someone please tell me if there are more then 18 episodes in season 4??

The last episode of the season –Episode 19–airs Feb 8 and we can watch it here this coming Tuesday Feb 9

There's been just 18 so far, you're up-to-date.

that is what he had been assigned to do, i.e a negative role !!

hahahaha, that Iron Maiden your saying is not “one of them”. according to benette she is called A.K.A “Iron Maiden” but shes not special.

hahahahahha i can see her doing that also xD

Aloneness?!

Now i've heard it all!! what ever happened to real words like Loneliness?

I love samuels character. He is a great villain and I want to see him next year but he really needs to be stopped this season(maybe he doesnt have o be killed but de-powered by matt parkman jr)

best tv show ever! every episode has different flavor i love this show…

Still unable to view video. Says “video cannot be found”. Any thoughts anyone?

I hope Samuel makes it trough the next ep.

He is a really tricky villain. Which is refreshing over the other who were always in some power trip.

I agree with you. Peter might die in the next episode, but even if I don't like him very much, it will be a big shock!
However, he will maybe help other people or try to stop samuel, while Sylar will help Emma. Because Peter wasn't in the dream doesn't necessary mean that he's gonna die. Petreli's mother said he will die, but this is not the first time she misunderstand her own visions. So even if it is a possible and logic it's not sure that he will die;
plus Sylar seems to apreciate him, because of the time they spent within their own minds, so maybe he won't only help Emma, but other people too.
And remember that Sylar has never hurt “normal people” he never aimed such a thing, and will probably be the man of the situation to control Samuel. Or other theory: he is as powerful that it will give more power to Samuel even if Sylar doesn't want to.

i hate samuel the dirty cunt

mutliple man: ima stop you bitch

Sylar: DO YOU KNOW WHO THE FUCK I AM CUNT?!?!?!?!?!

Sylar and Peter are going to mop the floor with the multiple man although Sylar would be awesome with the multiple ability.

I guess in the end it might be down to who gets a super charge from Ando, Samuel or Sylar?

Can anyone help me watch this video… none of them work not even Megavideo i think their website fucked up or something because i cant even get onto their website.. and i've tryed it on different computers and even up my mates house?!?!?!

One question:
Does anyone of you think that peter could get sylars true ability to understand things, he could use the empathy-aspect of it on sylar (sylar got the lightning ability from elle that way)to get all powers sylar has now to be again a peter that can do more than existing? sure he has to understand sylar and his feelings and all to do that, but they spent much time together in their minds…

Claire bitch die pls
