Why was the Haitian alone in Haiti? How did he get the plague?
Why would Bob refer to the Haitian as an "Assignment" to Suresh, one would think that the Haitian was more of a friend and more important to the company/Bob than that. (unless the Haitian ran after letting Peter go, but why is it impossible for the Haitian to lose someone?)
How does the company keep finding "Assignments for Suresh"? The tracking system is down and Molly wasn't in the company hands at the moment.
Why Peter didn't say, "I remember, I remember everything, oh **bleep** Kaitlyn." <Timetravel>

Yeah, I never thought about this until you brought it up. Maybe they were files they already had. <shrug>

Seriously. It may be brought up in the next episode, but it isn't like Peter to leave someone stranded like that.
Why are Claire and HRG back to their old ways? I thought the point of their story last season was to clear the air between them. Now, they argue and fight, one of them storms out of the room before either one can explain what is going on in their lives!
Why did Bob really want to inject Monica? That whole bit was random as hell.

Peter hadn't forgot about Caitlyn, so why would he comment about her when did get his memory back? If you knew nothing about who you were, and then you suddenly remembered your whole life and everything that has happened to you (which is a lot for Peter), wouldn't you be taking a few minutes to take it all in? Not just go ok, yeah, I remember who I am, but none of that matters, I need to save Caitlyn! Nathan is far more important to him then Caitlyn ever will be, and he knows that Nathan is killed by the virus, so Peter has his priorities. He hasn't forgotten about Caitlyn, but he does have a lot more to worry about then just her, he has to save the world (and his brother)!

I hate bringing up time travel again but now that Peter has left Caitlyn a year in the future in a timeline where everyone gets the virus, if he stops the virus from happening, where the heck is he going to find her? Also, did you notice that he makes the Hiro face when he attempts to time travel back to her?

True true, but it just seems like poof future, grab, poof back while saving the present isn't as simple. Also depending on how time really flows, you could be destroying the future she's in (and thus her) by saving the present first.

Does anyone else still think that somehow, the virus that they are playing with in might not be what kills the world? I still find Sylar/Maya's part in this season pointless and annoying should it not play some kinda part in the events to come. (Kinda like the whole mask of sylars not the bomb, peter is the bomb of last season.)

I started a Caitlin lost in time thread. I like that Sylar/Maya idea. He could be Nuclear Maya powered. A little bit Ted and little bit Maya. He could explode and spread her black oily eyeballs all over the place.

They had new assignments before the tracking systems, they'll have them after they're gone, too. Bob told Mohinder they found Claire through the newspaper clipping. They probably look through news media all over the world, looking for key words and phrases.
Maya wouldn't be in the show, unless she was leading toward something big. My guess is that she's either the plague, or the cure. Maybe both.

I don't think the future Peter visisted exists anymore ... he's already on the path to saving the world from the virus. That future is now already an alternate timeline that will not come to pass. Caitlyn is screwed. As far as we know, Hiro or Peter have never visited an alternate timeline. They have both gone to the actual future and have come back. With their knowledge of that future and their intentions and ability to change it, those future's would disappear instantly if they are able to change the outcome and intend to.
What do you guys think? I hope I made myself somewhat clear.

No, it doesn't exist. Yet. That exact future may not ever exist again. It would be too coincedental for every little thing to happen exactly the same way, all over the world, for an entire year. It will be different. However, I see no reason to believe that when one year passes, Caitlin won't be there. Only the circumstances should change, unless someone goes further back in time, to prevent Peter from taking her.
I don't remember the exact date, or how long he was there, but for the sake of argument, we'll say it was March 03 2007, and he stayed one day.
So, on 3/3/07 Peter took Caitlin to the future. On 3/3/08 Peter and Caitlin show up in New York. On 3/4/08 he left alone. On 3/4/07, Peter arrived back in Montreal.
No matter what happens in the next year (even if Peter dies), on 3/3/08, Peter and Caitlin should still show up in New York.
Right?

I don't know. She shows up with Peter in a timeline with the virus. At the point they left to go there the timeline was on that course. If Peter fixes the future they will get to a place without the virus and he won't know to go home and stop the virus. Paradox. I think if it's Back to the Future time travel the future will morph into a different one while she's there alone and since she never lived for the past year what the heck would be going on in her mind. The way this show does time travel will go like this. Peter gets back an in one week's time stops the virus. Caitlin will have lived one week in the future and then it will suddenly change.
Imthehero
Nov 15 2007, 02:55 PM
man, I think my brain just exploded.
Ok, the way I figure it is either 1. Peter killed her the second he left her there, as by going anywhere in the "past", he is slightly altering it, causing it to splinter off of the main timeline, and become an alternate reality that no one (this far) can reach.
or 2. Peter will be able to get back to her as long as he makes the attempt before the date that they arrived, and all he needs to to do is gain more control of his powers.
the main thing I wanted to see (and better next episode if Mr. Kring knows what's good for him) is some information on Sylar. We have always known little about him, but i think we deserve some information.

Either two things will happen (in this post anyway).
One: The spread of the virus is stopped and she doesn't exist anymore.
Two: There are two time lines, one with the virus and one without.
Caitlin and Peter arrived in future with the virus. That still happened in the present Peter is in because she isn't there anymore. Say they stop the virus. Where to Peter and Caitlin end up now? If they end up in a virus free world then when he gets back to Adam's place and he says "let's save the world", he'll say "I was just in the future and it looked okay to me." If they arrive and there is still a virus then here comes another multiple timeline scenario.

Well, lets use Hiro's jump to 5 years into the future as a basis for time travel events on the show. It is stated in 5YG that because Hiro has now come into the future, he is no longer in the past, and thus not able to stab Sylar and help prevent the bomb. So by that logic, when a person travels into the future, it is a future that would exist if that person suddenly dissappeared from the present. So this virus ravaged future occurs if Peter was to dissappear from the present, and by going back to the present, the future is already changed, though in what way we don't know.

Maybe if they fix the event and the future changes she'll get "kicked out of the future" in order to prevent any sort of time discrepancy?

It must be an alternate timeline.
I just attempted to re-edit "Four Months Ago" as the real season premiere. I put the Mohinder opening from this season's premiere at the start of "Four Months Ago" and start with the Nathan dropping Peter. Then I play it straight through to the Haitian whiping Peter's Memory and handcuffing him. I removed all the subititles about how many weeks or months ago it was and all the "present day" scenes. Then I attached this seasons premiere "Four Months Later" to it and made it one long episode. It now looks like Peter was cell mates with this mystery man who says he's 400 years old and can't be killed. When Hiro drops from the sky in 1641 we find out that the guy is Kensei. My version is better than their version. However, what sticks out like a sore thumb is no explaination of what happened to Matt. The lack of a Sylar explaination makes sense because he isn't shown yet in those episodes. But since it showed DL recover, it just looks like big continuity error because he is suddenly well. When it catches up to episode 2-7 I have to add Peter remembering Nathan to the end, and let's go save the world and the to be continued part. It is a masterpiece except for Matt. I hope whenever they do the Matt flashback (if the do). It will fit in my new premiere perfectly. Otherwise, I'm screwed.

Wasn't that telekenisis to lift himself? He used it when he offed the lady with super hearing.
I'm not going to get into speculation about his situation when the company had him, but they did confirm in this episode 2.8 that the Haitian does block powers. So as long as the Haitian was around his powers were blocked. (personally I think they pulled that out of their *ss).

1) Maybe, but I'd like to finally find out and stop speculating.
2) So, the Haitian was near him the entire time? I doubt that. I figured they use drugs, but that doesn't explain how he got control.
3) Yes, but does Sylar? See #1
