What happened with Mohinder? Last time I checked, didn't he have scales growing on his neck and face. He was going through the metamorphosis and the eclipse stopped it. When the eclipse subsided...I guess it appeared to retard the metamorphosis..but it wasn't explained thoroughly? Also, how is he fighting this dark side of him that we were implied was a side-effect of his powers. The dark side that made him unpredictably turbulent, distressed, murderous and predatory, and "hungry"- but at the same time still brilliant lol

eh i think the writers just want us to know that after he drank or took the injection formula for power by accident, everything was fixed. He was able to get the power he maintained and cleaned up all the screwed up areas. So in this case the formula was more of a medicine lol since he already had powers.

I think they handled all that poorly.

I don't remember him taking the formula when did he do that?

Like I said, I think they handled all of that very poorly.

Does Mohinder still have the formula. I don't know if he could make it work without the light or not though. Does anybody know what happen to it.

I thought the light was lost forever, but I could be wrong. And I don't think Mohinder can make a new formula without it.

Yeah it could be gone forever. But it had to go somewhere and they had to get it originaly somehow.

maybe he can recreate it as it is now part of him. Reverse engineer is the term i think

He kept his strength but lost his agility? Must've been the spidey-suresh side that got kiboshed after the serum bath!:lol:

Did he lose his agility? That's what I was thinking...numerous occasions when he should have used his agility (esp. the scene was he was being chased at the parking structure). But his whole thing hasn't been clearly explained so he could have retained all his spidey powers

The formula is gone for good it's useless without the catalyst which is gone since Arthur died which is why his body was glowing and then went out after he died implying the catalyst is gone. Although they never mention what the hell the catelyst really was lol beside one of the recipe in making the formula, all I saw was Hiro's mom putting it in him. And from that that was poor writing I guess... because they didn't get into it more ,so how are the viewers suppose to know if the formula is dead for good since we dont know if that was the only catalyst or is there other ways making a formula that gives powers without the catalyst?

Does anyone know if the same formula was used to give Nathan his power. What about the guy Tracy talked to. maybee he knows how to make the formula

Good observation...but given that the formula was halved and ensconced well before them, it wouldn't seem consistent so I think they were just engineered with powers. More than likely injected with a catalyst like Mohinder's that binds the correct protein sequence for metahuman abilities.

I'm not fully certain about Mohinders powers now, but in that parking garage scene it certainly 'seemed' to suggest that he was moving a bit faster and without tiring much when he was running down the ramp. Could be wrong, but that was the feeling I got from it.
