1. ... They've only run into three other superhumans so far (unless I'm forgetting somebody) -- Linderman, who didn't tell them what he could do; Nathan, who also didn't tell Niki/Jessica anything, and Hiro, who never got to tell DL what he could do. As far as DL and Niki/Jessica know, their family is the only ones with powers. (Like I said, unless I'm forgetting someone. It's possible. I've been awake all night long. Who needs coffee when you have a night job? ;))
Well, Jessica's also met Matt Parkman, who told her he could "hear" her partner Niki, but I'm not sure that she's made the connection.
4. The timelines of the various plotlines are a bit wonky if you try to think about it too much.
The timelines are kinda wonky, but the show's been known to play with them before. Also, I seem to recall (haven't finished downloading the ep yet) that Ando asks Hiro if he really wants to wait two days to kill Sylar when Sylar's right there. That would imply that the two of them arrive in New York the day before the election occurs.
The Bennet/Parkman/Sprague trio hits New York on the day of the election, having hotwired the car in St. Louis the day before. And clearly, Mama Petrelli was in to give Nathan a pep talk the evening before the election.
Although... there's a substantial inaccuracy on the calendar DL and Jessica are looking at. It shows Tuesday (Election Day) as November 8, 2006. But (a) Hiro's visit to the future showed the headline from November 8 as "Petrelli Wins in Landslide" day -- clearly the day after the election -- and (b) November 8 doesn't fall on a Tuesday in 2006 anyways. Bad script assistant.
But ah! Clearly Linderman neglected to pick up a calendar from 2006 and only had one lying around from 2005, when November 8 does fall on a Tuesday. *grin* No-Prize, please? ; )
As for #5...? Who wants to bet that, before that, the virus is used to help eliminate Sylar?
Sylar's clearly the Big Bad of season 1. I have a sneaking suspicion that the Company is going to be the Big Bad of season 2. Which hopefully means we'll see more of Claude and the Haitian. *grin*
