  • The cure for the virus

    And its definitely not Claire.

    It's Maya and Alenjro. If you think about it it will make sense. A virus needs a host in order to survive. The twins ability allows them to kill people and bring them back, thus killing the virus. Now I know why these characters were introduced with such a power. Seemingly a bad one but a blessing in disguise.

    But a virus doesn't leave a dead body until after rigor mortis.

      Uhh rigor mortis occurs because there is no ATP. A virus cannot function if the host cell machinery is shut down.

        It may be a slight twist. I think it's not Maya, but Alexandro who is going to be the Key. His ability is to TAKE viruses into himself and they disapate......just expand his powers...and whamo...you have your key.

          But not every body system shuts down after death. Everything is finished when a body enter rigor mortis.

            actually i think a virus will stay around even after that. dont the police look at magot and things to see how someone died? i think the magots and stuff will still have the virus and thats days after the person died.
            i know of storys about people who snuck past nazis by hiding in coffins and when the nazis wanted to check and see the body in the coffin the coffin carriers would tell them that the person in the coffin died from a contagious virus and the nazis would get as far away as possible. now its possible they didnt know they couldnt catch something from a dead body but i think that a virus hangs around and can still infect people even later

              Maybe Alexandro has a power similar to Linderman's? We have seen how Hero's are able to develop their powers, maybe he has only used his gift to cure his sister because that is all he has tried to use it for, but he is in fact able to cure anybody of anything. Given the repetition we've seen in abilities in people not necessarily related to each other I would be surprised if there is no-one else with the ability to heal others.

                But remember this isn't death from a gunshot or anything. This is full blown shut down - they literally just die on the spot. That's why I think BOTH the twins are needed. One to kill the virus the other to revive the people. I dont think Alenjdro's power extends beyond healing those black tears though, because Sylar said they had a half power.

                Really if they aren't the cure why are they even in the show? Everything's connected.

                  I wish they weren't in the show, but at least this gives them purpose.

                    So when Gabriel kills him and takes his ability he'll have the only cure for the virus and then he will be "very" special...

                      And he'll crawl into the fetal position in the corner and repeat: "I'm a very special boy."

                        Gabriel could already be the cure... If you remember in Season 1 when Mohinder takes a sample of Gabriel's spinal fluid, and said basically saying that Gabriel was the key to finding them all... I'm not good with words but basically I think his DNA is already the cure to the virus...

                          that doesn't make sense because there is a theory that sylar has the virus and if they were the cure wouldn't he have his powers again, unless he simply doesn't have the virus. and like i said if he does have the virus he would have his powers because maya killed sylar to get past border patrol.
