I was slightly off on my prediction on what it would be as I thought it might be something like a super learning ability since he was so smart for such a young kid. When he was rebuilding his motherboard before school in one earlier episode, I did have a thought that he might be like Forge of the X-Men where he can make, fix or invent things that he simply thinks about and then does. Micah’s ability to reactivate a broken pay phone to call his Mom would seem to be some kind of ability to manipulate machines or possibly some kind of electrical ability. Time will tell, but I might have been closer with the Forge thought, but I didn’t write it at the time.

Sorry, bro! Thanks for the synopsis of Heroes. However, I'm not sure how much longer I'll be watching it. I fell asleep towards the end of the episode. I'm not saying it was boring, but my interest is definitely waning. Unfortunately I can’t comment on “Lost” because I don’t watch it. Sorry, bro! Thanks for the synopsis of Heroes.

My guess on the tat is it shows only when Niki is her other personality, which has access to the super strength and rage. That said, what is the purpose? It's like Cable's flashing eye or something like that which shows her power is active??? @Joe: You got marked as spam, not sure why though…

I think that's a stretch. - I think it was just bad writing of the episode. On the other hand the tat may be specific to the good girl / bad girl deal. So, no, probably not a "QA issue" jckss :P @Sean – So, people can pick up how to speak Japanese from watching Godzilla movies…

I didn't notice and just went back to look at both episodes to confirm the location. The camera even lingers on the spot it should be, but it is not. Of course, Joe might call this a continuity error or a QA issue... @Ed: Good catch. I didn’t notice and just went back to look at both episodes to confirm the location.

If I hear one more expository dialogue from that dude, I think I'll perform a brain dump of my entire understanding of the English language. Different topic - did you catch the fact that Nikki's tat disappeared when she turned back to her real self. Well, we know he didn’t learn it from Mohinder.

I'd like to see more people doing so that we can share ideas and thoughts here, and on the Ed Zone for <em>Lost</em>, rather than talk it in person/phone unless you want to have a weekly conference call. It's good to hear other peoples ideas and so far this season, it has pretty much been just me posting on Ed's stuff about <em>Lost</em>. @Joe: And also, thanks for posting your thoughts here.

I did find it odd at first to hear him speaking that much, but I also didn't hear him saying or understanding anything that complex. I think he already knows some English from watching <em>Star Trek</em> and the like (subtitles or not, you'll eventually pick up on some words), just not enough. Plus, Ando could have taught him some things on their drive from LA to LV. @Joe: At first I was going to flame you for not getting the part where he is from the future, but then you further explained yourself.

He can't speak English into the phone to Isaac, but can talk to Nathan about Flying, Waffles and winning the election, but then surprisingly forgets how to speak English when the ride back to Vegas is over? Someone needs to QC the episodes.
