Let?s start with something that I touched on last week: the whole ?seeing or being from the future & leaving cryptic messages? routine. I realize that the drama & tension have to be ratcheted up every now & then, but once, just once, I?d like to see someone come from the future (I?m looking at you, FN Hiro) & actually tell someone something of worth. ?Save the Cheerleader, save the world?? What kind of crap is that? What cheerleader? Where? How about a school, at least?

Another question brought up, related to the time displacement problem this show has, is just how long was Good/Evil Niki left sleeping in Nathan?s bed before his lackey came in & booted her out? Nathan was abducted, flew away to BFE for breakfast, came back to the hotel (I believe it's the same one, The Montecito from NBC?s ?Las Vegas? [as pointed out by the ever vigilant ETS] that Hiro & Ando were ejected from) & then ran into Good Niki. I guess this is feasible, if Good Niki chose to hang around the hotel for a few hours after she got up. Maybe she was looking around for Nathan. Maybe the hotel had a great all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet & she was trying to get her $8.95 worth (she is eating for two, in a manner of speaking). Who knows?

Another theory that?s been brought to the table, & this goes back to CD getting around the country really quick, is that he?s not one person, but more like an Agent Smith from The Matrix, only without the mad kung-fu skilz. I know that Texas, Nevada & California aren?t all that far apart, but the guy?s really rackin? up the frequent flyer miles with all the traveling he does. And if he?s gone so much, how would he be able to keep an eye on Claire? That could be remedied if he?s a clone.

It wouldn?t explain, though, how MM is always with him. Unless Miguelito?s theory that CD?s power is the ability to shrink MM & carry him in his pocket is correct.

Hey, it could happen!
