lol the formula

[Yoshua]

Ok, so Hiro tore up the formula.


Does he really not think they dont have a hundred digital copies of that thing backed up on like 100 hard drives across the nation?


Not to mention the way Mohinder has been looking at it and working it over he could probably recite it from memory.

lol i thought that myself which is true .. but no more catalyst , did that not go up in smoke with arthur ?

So far as we know it did. But they had ONE researcher on that formula. Asinine. The goverment can put 100 top notch researchers on it and come up ways to circumvent the catalyst. Obviously Mohinder can make the syrum with side effects without even having the formula.


Given enough time they can crack it without a catalyst. They might not be able to give people already alive abilities but they could definately modify embryos to kick start the gene.

A major possiblity , although one thing i did notice the first time around when arthur first used the catalyst thing , Suresh said it was going to cause some sort of chemical reaction , reckon Suresh could have been smart enough to record this reaction ??

Remember the glow around Arthur after he died. I reckon that could've been the Catalyst leaving his body. And who were close to him when that happened? Maybe the Catalyst just found another body. And maybe the Catalyst was already gone when Arthur added it to the formula. Maybe the "let's give everyone powers" storyline ends with the end off "Villains".

I bet some samples of the formula are still around.
I seem to remember Tracy telling Nathan that the injections were ready, but he told her to only give the test subject the injection.
There were several "volunteers" ready to take the shot, but when the tables were trashed, there looked to me to be only a dozen or so in that tray.
Could Tracy have taken them? Was that why she just happened to pick up Mohinder as he was stumbling down the shoulder of the road?
