Why dont they go to Japan to hide?

[Hockeyking]

The writers are goofing off again. The U.S government would have no authority to arrest Hiro in Japan. Big slip up. If they are worried about hiding out because of no money, they should just go to Japan and let little Hiro supply them with food and money.

The question is, how to get Hiro to Japan especially w/ the U.S. gov watching every single move they make?

[pycer]

Just because one doesnt have permission to do something, doesnt stop it from happening. Nathans teams can clearly strike in other lands without fear of repercussions. It happens in the real world well enough. And of course now, how would they get there? If they take a plane, they would be caught immediately. Peter fly them over one by one? Very slow and impractical given the needed rest stops.

[Superboy2]

This is Nathan Petrelli, you honestly think that jurisdiction is going to stop him from getting to them?

[targis]

Isn't Hiro supposed to be super rich. having alot of money should help them hide

[j-kent]

yeah but that's not Hiro's style...he wants to save the world..he was just attempting to be under the radar

[Level5]

Poor Hiro, I feel sorry for him. I mean he can't do anything without his powers.

[j-kent]

Yeah, but to me he's the heart of the show with his spirit and super optimism!

[Level5]

Yeah, but if they don't give him his power back, then how much longer can they keep him on the show?

[targis]

at the meeting of hereos at the end of the episode hiro looked at a drawing and said he was going to get his powers back or something like that. I don't see how he could though

[Level5]

I thought I heard Tim Kring was moving away from the whole time travel thing? Please tell me I'm wrong though?

[targis]

really if they are going to what is hiro going to do?

[Level5]

That's what I was saying, if that is true and Hiro isn't going to get his powers back. Then how much longer can they keep him?

[Yoshua]

They took Hiro FROM Japan. Don't think they care about international boundaries right now.

----- Added 2 Minutes later -----

Hiro will not get his power back. If Peter is any indication of what direction they want to take the show I highly doubt that they are going to bring a time traveller back. He may get them in some form, such as the ability to slow time DOWN, or teleport from place to place, but I doubt they will give him the ability to jump back and forth through time anymore. Those story lines are played out, you can only have so many 'i am from the future and you are the only one who can help save it' moments before you lose your entire audience.

I wouldnt mind if the powers take a tone down

It would make the characters seem more vulnerable or not too powerful.

In sylars case? I'm going to enjoy seeing his meeting with his dad.

[Kick2theface]

I think they could use Hiro without his powers. I mean he is still pretty good with a sword. I wouldn't mind see Hiro get a power like teleporting or slowing down time.

People keeping saying that Hiro won't be around much longer with no powers and a lot of people are saying that Peter's current condition is just leading into him becoming the badass he is in the future. Has anyone considered that maybe they are leading into turning Hiro into the badass he is in the future as well?

[Level5]

I think they'll have to give him a power of some kind, I don't know if it will be his original power though.

Peter has seen the future, though, it's his job to keep it from coming true. Just like in the first season. I don't know if they've stopped it or not, but the reference made in the this episode from Daphne about Ando killing Hiro, seems to mean that it will still happen.

[Superboy2]

Peter said they can't go back to their odl lives, so none of them would be able to get to Yamagato Industries. Even Hiro calling his sister would be bad, she may turn against him if she thought he was a terrorist. Then ahgain with her parents and brother with powers, she might have one as well.
