Any guess as to what it might be, and will it play a role in the overall gist of things?

Shapeshifter. Totally a shapeshifter.
Jamie_The_Hiro
Can being a snob be considered a power? Because she's really good at doing that.
Gothiksprite
Didn't she say something about talking like Claire used to or something like that? It made me think that her power might be like Eden's but a bit different.
CrewWolf
Well we don't really know if she has a power. *blinks* Well if Papa Petrelli didn't have a power, I guess that would make it likely she has a power. But it could skip generations right?

I think she shoots laser beams out her eyes.

Yeah...I was thinking maybe she doesn't have one considering how she kinda danced around the straight-out question.
SuperPetrelli
Shes no shapeshifter lol, Im sure she Heals or something, although her power might be tottally crazy compared to everyone elses...Like she turns into ULURU lmao no Im just kidding, but Seeing what she can do will be interesting
sylarf
theyre gonna start runnin out of good powers now

She's not a healer. Or she would have just healed Peter?
Jamie_The_Hiro
Did anybody else get the impression that Linderman is the true papa petrelli? For some reason I don't trust mama petrelli one bit. Of course, they already used the aldutress love child scenario this season, so maybe not...

And powers don't skip generations, look at Niki, Micah, and D.L. (that's if D.L. is really Micah's father. For some reason I think that everyone one this show sleeps around)

But in the online comic, Austin/Linderman comes to see Dallas/Papa Petrelli and Mama Petrelli and Little Nathan are in the room. Unless Nathan has an older brother..
Matchstick
It'd be funny if she has some really lame, Legion of Substitute Heroes-type power. Like she can turn purple or something.

Which would mean another long lost sibiling/child. Can anybody on this show keep it in their pants for 2 freakin seconds?! Jeeze! Next thing you know Sylar and Mohinder will be... oh wait, I think that already happened
SuperPetrelli
Well if she doesnt heal, she has to do something cool, maybe freezes, or Empathy, Or maybe her Power is to give Birth to Heroes lol
Amsted
I would have to say that Ma Petrelli has the power to undermine a man's confidence within a 6 foot radius.

As long as Dog Welder exists in this world, I find that quite impossible.
hakim
Did anybody notice that Nathan Petrelli seemed to be painting? Did he paint the picture of himself in the white house and hide it in a shipment of Isaac's paintings?
Jumper
Well I do say that Mama Petrelli does have an abaility because I think it is passed through the parents and it doesnt skip a generation. What I think is that if you have one parent who is gifted and the other isnt the childern have a 50% chance of getting an ability. (Like Mama Petrelli and Matt with his child) But if you have two parents (Niki and DL) I think that the child will for sure get one, it was just a stroke of luck that Peter and Nathan got an ability tongue.gif

I think she has the power to see things as they happen or right after they happen
Like they way Peter saw Nathans accident in his dreams.
CelestialMystic
^It was Isaac's picture - Linderman let him keep it, probably, just so he could think it over.

For those of you who doubt that Angela has a power - both Nathan and Peter have powers. Either that's a complete genetic coincidence (of which there are no such things on this show), or... one/both of their parents have powers, and my money's on both.

I'm betting her power is something more mental, like a version of Eden's power or perhaps omnilingualism (as lame as that may sound, imagine if you could hold conversations, with minute bacteria or something, as they're technically living).
hirofan16
I feel like her power is going to be something like knowing things or something similar to Matt's where he can he thoughts. She ALWAYS seems to know what's going on. She knew about Claire all this time even though Nathan thought she was dead. She said, 'you can spit out bullets to Claire' so it seems like she knows about the time she was shot. I don't quite know what it is but she seems to more than anybody about the big picture (except maybe Linderman).
keybladehero
its not for sure that she actually has one although it seemed she aluded to the point she did, and if she did i think it would be something that would fit her personatity or her like stature as aperson, maybe she can like be anywhere at any givin time, because shes worring about both sons, let alone able to keep an eye on claire, and she had a husband who had suicide atepts so idk

This actually makes a lot of sense. Peter absorbs his powers from others. This was the first power he manifested. Where did he get it from? It makes sense it could be from his mother.
keybladehero
people think he got it fromp papa devoux, the dream thing, and your parrents dont neccesarily have to have a power, look at sylar, and charlie, hiro, niki/jessica, DL, mohinder's sister, mohinder's parents didnt have powers, yet how did his sister get them anser me this "genetics wizes out there "

It has to be something emotional then... something that really connects her to Peter, because she says that he is her favorite and that she connects most to him.

Plus, she just manages to freakin know everything. Kinda like Peter knew there had been another car in the crash, She knew about Nathan's mistake in the first place, then also that Claire was still alive. However, strangely enough, she didn't know that peter was dead. Plot hole? Counterexample? Or, maybe the knowlege only comes in dreams. So she would have had to fall asleep and dream, in order to figure out that Peter was dead.
Jumper
Well maybe she's like Isaac but instead she...dreams about them? so maybe she does have a different ability that allowed her to see the future...

Peter wasnt technically dead though. Just incapacitated?

Well, technically he was dead. He just got better.

she just used her power!
keybladehero
ok WE DONT KNOW FOR SURE IF SHE HAS A POWER READ WHAT I POSTED!

MOHINDER'S SISTER HAD AN ABILITY YET MOHINDER AND HIS PARENTS DONT, JUST BECAUSE U HAVE ONE DOESNT MEAN THE WHOLE FAMILY DOES!
Chrispminis
Lol, I can't tell if people are actually serious at all with some of the crazy theories that are spewed out.

While Heroes *tries* to involve genetics into the whole equation it does so poorly, but I don't really mind. I doubt that the writers would re-introduce old powers, simply because that's kind of lame. I really think Omnilingualism is the most likely candidate.

Although she speaks horrible French, her thing might be the power to understand and speak in all languages. It would be fairly unique.

Either that, or keke, yes, the power to give birth to heroes. Ahahaha.
Marchon2884
I'm wondering how much we're betting on whether they'll repeat powers or not. Notice that Linderman's art gallery was from many different artists. He kept saying "artists" that dreamed of a brighter future, etc (sorry for the paraphrase). Maybe she DOES dream about the future, or at least events that she can't see with her eyes right in front of her, and then she can tell someone else the dreams and they paint them. It seems that Linderman's been collecting for a while. And if they were friends (as I assume they were) before, perhaps she was the first "dreamer" and then Linderman had to find a new one (ie Isaac) after the group split. Just a thought.
special ability 10
he was dead lol & i was tlking to my friend nd im like how is he going to live thru THAT..nd then claire turns over his head and im like OH YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! lolol
ClayAikenRocks
Hmm, not a lot of powers left. She could be the source of peter's vision power..

That's true but I think people are speculating because two of her sons have powers and we know there is a genetic link. It's not definite but I think it's a good bet she has powers, especially with her being so involved in the company (through her husband) and knowing the Haitian and knowing all about powers...there aren't too many people we've seen so far who know about powers that don't have them except for Bennet and it doesn't seem like she's directly involved with the company like he is. It's more like she's going against it by protecting Claire. Plus, she's alluded to having a power.

So, while we're not positive she has one and there won't be proof until we see it, I think it's a safe bet to speculate that she does. That's just my two cents though.

And good call with Papa Deveaux, I forgot about him. His power definitely seemed similar to Peter's.
keybladehero
maybe i will im just saying thats where it started, and you dont know for sure if she acutally has one, plus he could have gotten the dream powere from at least three people if u think its his mom thats one, Papa devoux is two and simone would be three

I was thinking something along the same lines. A really pathetic and/or useless power. That's why she's not admitting to anything. wink.gif
Hero?
My money is on Lindermann being the father to the Petrelli brothers and the mother's power is some kind of psychological thing...controlling mentally...something along that lines. Lindermann kept her in Nathan's life for a reason...someone had to lead him to politics to fulfill his destiny of saving humanity.
Go! Go! Hiro!
Super Speed! Go Speed Granny! LOL!
Rocker681
I wonder if it's super speed, that's one they havent touched on yet
Dreaux
I think that she may be a Power Sensor. She has the ability to just KNOW what powers a Hero has. [It's a form of perception.]

Although it can stem from Hiro's power. If he just slows down time, and walks around, it will seem like super speed. Like when he stole the replica sword from the museum.

I still think its omnilingualism. It seems more Mama Petrelli-like.
Rocker681
What if it is almost like Isaac's. when she walks into the room where peter and Nathan are talking she mentions knowing something long before them
