| Mr. Bennet has only one name, and that is "Bennet". He has no first initial or middle initial. || Mr. Bennet's [[:Image:Bennet's Driver's Licence HD.PNG|driver license]] only lists his name as Bennet. (''[[Distractions]]'') || The single name on the license is not normal on legal ID. If he has no name, it's strange that [[Sandra Bennet|Sandra]] made that comment about everyone calling him "Mr. Bennet" while she referred to him by something else. On the other hand, if his name really is just "Bennet", then Sandra could just find it amusing that everyone else puts "Mr." in front of it, just as it would be odd if everyone called her "Mrs. Sandra". |

| Mr. Bennet's first name is something that is initialed to make "HRG". || None || Mr. Bennet's first name could be Harold Ronald Girard. |

| Mr. Bennet's boss is [[Mr. Linderman]]. || None || |
|||
*Linderman is [[character connections#Mr. Linderman|connected]] to most of the other characters in some way. |
|||
*Mr. Bennet and the Haitian were able to get into [[Montecito|Nathan's hotel room]] easily and the casino staff were rather blasé about a guest disappearing from their room. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Bennet's boss is [[Thompson]]. || Bennet is hired by Thompson and takes orders from him. (''[[Company Man]]'') || Writers have stated in a CBR interview that Thompson is an associate of Mr. Bennet, not his boss. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Bennet's boss is [[Mr. Nakamura]]. || Kaito Nakamura is affiliated with the [[Company]], and is at least higher up in the organization. He was the one who gave [[Claire Bennet|Claire]] to [[Mr. Bennet]] to raise. (''[[Company Man]]'') || Nakamura runs a large corporation with a biotech department. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Bennet's boss is someone in the [[Deveaux Society]]. || None || |
|||
*Relatively little is known about the Deveaux Society. |
|||
*[[Claude]], [[Mr. Bennet]], [[Mr. Nakamura]] and [[Thompson]] meet to hand over [[Claire]] on the Deveaux rooftop (''[[Company Man]]''). |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Bennet reports directly to the President or someone high up in the administration. || A file related to The Company is found in [[the Pentagon]], the headquarters of the US military. (''[[Graphic Novel:The Lonestar File]]'') || |
|||
* It seem unlikely any of the major powers would be unaware of such individuals particularly if the phenomenon has been going on since the 1970s. |
|||
* The resources available to Mr. Bennet seem to beyond the capabilities of anything but government. |
|||
* He seemed to have prior warning of the police raid. |
|||
* He is interested in tracking, not killing or capturing evolved humans. |
|||
* In [[World War II]], Nazi Germany engaged in scientific programs to produce superior humans. Many of these scientist were taken to USA or USSR to continue their research. Just as German rocket science lead to the man landing on the moon, these evolved humans could represent the fruition of this research. |

| Sandra's condition is caused by repeatedly being subjected to [[The Haitian]]'s power. If her health continues to degenerate, [[Mr. Bennet]] will eventually be discovered and forced to reveal the truth about his organization. || Sandra looks visibly ill when she returns from the doctor (''[[Run!]]''). She further shows evidence of unexplained brain hemorrhaging. (''[[Unexpected]]''). || Sandra's memory of [[Claire]] and [[Mr. Muggles]] is temporarily erased (''[[Unexpected]]''). |
|||
|- |
|||
| [[Sandra Bennet|Sandra]]'s condition was caused by the blow to the head that she suffered from [[Sylar]]'s attack or another blow that [[The Haitian|the Haitian]] had erased from her memory so she did not seek appropriate medical treatment. || The [[Beth Lindall|doctor]] reviewing Sandra's case to [[Claire]] asks if she has been battered or suffered a serious blow. (''[[Run!]]'') || |
|||
*As [[Sylar]] approaches Sandra to finish her off, he unexpectedly pauses (''[[Distractions]]''). He possibly saw what was "broken" and was distracted. |
|||
*The brain hemorrhaging was located in the part of the brain that controls memory (''[[Unexpected]]''). This is most likely a cause of the Haitian's abilities. |
|||
*Mr. Bennet is aware that his actions are the cause of her illness. |

| Charles has a power similar to [[Sanjog]]'s, like a sort of "spirit guide". || Peter had a dream about the same time Charles died. || Peter's dream was most likely his power of empathy in action; he connected with Charles' feelings and emotions. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Charles had the power of [[wikipedia:Astral projection|astral projection]]. || Charles was in a coma for an extended period and in some depictions, "astral travelers" become unconscious as their mind travels elsewhere. Charles also said that while asleep he had been flying around the world and seeing things happening. The accounts of those who claim to have experienced astral projection are very similar to this description. || |
|||
|- |
|||
| Charles Deveaux was an agent of the [[Company]]. || Several agents of the Company meet on his rooftop in a flashback in [[Company Man]]. Bennet later recognizes as the rooftop of the Deveaux building in [[Unexpected]] from Isaac's painting, indicating that he knew of the building and had been there before. Claude also would be able to hide in plain sight (so to speak) while he was up there, since the last place the Company would look for him is right under their noses. |

| Linderman will eventually play a bigger part in the series. || He is already connected to most of the other characters. || |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman may be funding [[the Company]]. || [[Mr. Bennet]] and [[the Haitian]] are easily able to access [[Nathan]]'s room in [[Linderman]]'s casino. (''[[Collision]]'') || Linderman has money, and is connected to most of the characters. His interest in [[Isaac Mendez]]'s [[painting]]s may indicate his knowledge of their significance and of the existence of superhuman [[powers]]. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman is [[Mr. Bennet]]'s [[Mr. Bennet's boss|mysterious employer]]. || None || See "Linderman may be funding the Company". |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman is an [[evolved human]]. || None || Linderman appears to be a key "villain" in the series, who already has somewhat sinister connections to most of the characters. Linderman collects items that have [[the symbol]] such as [[Hiro's sword]]. He also collects paintings by [[Isaac Mendez]] which may hint that he has a heightened level of awareness such as omniscience but no precognitive powers himself. Since Mr. Linderman predicts almost the exact path that will lead Nathan to the White House, he may have some kind of heightened awareness. Linderman seems without fear after Nathan points a pistol at him. A villainous superhuman would be an appropriate enemy. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman is [[Nathan]] and [[Peter Petrelli]]'s actual father. || None || Nathan's campaign is funded by Linderman. Linderman was an associate of Mr. Petrelli, Nathan and Peter's supposed father. Linderman appears to know a lot about enhanced humans. Nathan and Peter, being siblings, may have inherited their powers from a parent. [[Angela Petrelli]] does not appear to have any powers. However, there is no hard evidence that Linderman has powers. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Linderman is a shapeshifter. || None || Linderman may have been Sylar's [[Cockroach|cockroach]] and [[Mohinder the lizard]]. He may also have shape shifted into Hiro's dad to trick him. And if a live dinosaur is to battle Hiro, it could be Linderman. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Linderman can manipulate probability. || None || Linderman owns casinos, a very lucrative business for someone who may have the ability to manipulate probability. He told Nathan Petrelli that "a series of fluke circumstances" would place him in the White House; a statement that suggests probability will be in both their favors if Nathan agrees to Linderman's plan. If Linderman were able to see the future, then he would have no need for [[Isaac Mendez]]'s [[painting]]s. He may be gathering intelligence about Nathan and his abilities and connections through the paintings. |
|||
|- |
|||
|Linderman has powers and he is recruiting to have world domination. || None || Maybe [[Mr. Bennet]] works for him and captures [[evolved humans]] to monitor them until needed. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman is aware that [[Isaac]] paints the future. He collects the paintings to further his own agenda. He buys all the paintings so as not to draw attention to the ones that really interest him || Simone states that Linderman buys all of [[Isaac's paintings]] that he can. (''[[Godsend]]'') || He may also be aware that the [[sword]] has special properties. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman buys Isaac Mendez's paintings so people don't realize that he can paint the future. || None || Linderman may be connected to the Company. By posing as a fan of Isaac's work, Linderman could be fulfilling the directives of the Company. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman has no powers. || None || Linderman is a powerful character; having no powers would be an interesting dichotomy. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman is [[Claude]]'s father. || None || Both characters have British accents. Fathers having and protecting children with abilities is a recurring theme. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman wants Nathan to become president so that when people having evolutionary enhancements becomes mainstream knowledge, the major power will not be inclined to capture, kill, or otherwise control them. || None || |
|||
* Linderman has a lot of interest in people with abilities. |
|||
* On several occasions, Nathan has spoken on how his natural reaction to people with abilities would be to lock them up and study them. He also is against going public about the evolution of powers. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman is either the embodiment of the evolved humans, or the embodiment of the universe. This is also known as omnipresence. || None || |
|||
* He tells Nathan that if Nathan kills Mr. Linderman, then he will also die. He also may have known about some of the evolved humans before they knew about their own power. |
|||
* However, it's likely that Mr. Linderman merely meant that Nathan would have a hard time surviving the 754 members of his security team. |

|||
| Ando has the power to focus or amplify other people's powers. || Every time Hiro uses his powers near Ando, Hiro is able to do what he wants. When Hiro is not near Ando his powers are unpredictable. Also, when Isaac was around Ando, he was able to paint the future successfully without drugs. || The possibility of this is unlikely. When Hiro attempts to go back in time and save Charlie in Episode 8 ("Seven minutes to midnight"), he moves back 6 Months to April, far further than the day he intended to, despite his proximity to Ando. If Ando's ability is just developing it might explain this though. Also, Ando is next to Hiro at the [[Museum of Natural History]], and Hiro is only able to slow time, not completely stop it (''[[Godsend]]''). |
|||
|- |
|||
| Ando has some kind of power involving the control of objects in motion. || Ando is nearby when the bullet from Hope's gun stops and then goes back into the barrel, causing it to "backfire". (''[[Unexpected]]'')|| |
|||
* Hiro was also near the gun, and was actively concentrating. (''[[Unexpected]]'') |
|||
* Hiro has reversed time in the past. (''[[Genesis]]'') |
|||
* Hiro's power is [[space-time manipulation]]; Ando has shown no other examples of using any powers. |
|||
* Ando told [[Peter]] that he does not have any powers. (''[[Homecoming]]'') |
|||
|- |
|||
| Ando has the ability to speak the future. || |
|||
There are many instances where Ando's offhand utterances later turn out to be true. In a recent episode, he says that he and Hiro need to find hope, only to meet a woman named Hope moments later. He also says "maybe you need the sword to find the sword." to Hiro, which seems like it will also turn out to be true later on. His ability may be that he is some kind of oracle. |
|||
|| |
|||
This observation may simply be a device the writers have used to play up the need for Ando's character since Hiro learned English, or, more likely, to play up Hiro's quest for destiny. |

| Mr. Nakamura has powers. || None || The Petrellis and Claire Bennet's ability to have super powers may have been inherited. If this is consistent, Mr. Nakamura also has powers. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Nakamura is the head of the [[Company]]. || He seems to have incredible sway over other members of the Company (''[[Company Man]]''). He also is known to have significant resources at his disposal, given how easily he monitors and abducts [[Hiro]] and [[Ando]] (''[[Distractions]]''). || Some members of the Company speak Japanese, possibly having learned the language at the orders Mr. Nakamura. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Nakamura has been hiding [[Hiro]] from the Company. || Mr. Nakamura tells Mr. Bennet he will have to turn over Claire when and if she manifests a power. (''[[Company Man]]'') || Mr. Nakamura has not turned over Hiro to the Company. It is possible Mr. Nakamura does not know that Hiro has powers. Hiro himself didn't know he had powers until recently. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mr. Nakamura's organization is a competitor to Linderman's organization. || Mr. Nakamura's organization is powerful and well funded. Linderman's people act independently of the Company, and no one associated with Linderman has the tracking marks. |
|||
In ''[[Hiros]]'', Nathan flies away from Mr. Bennett and the Haitian, after having met with Linderman. |
|||
|| This is part of a theory of Independent Action, where not everything lines up with two factions. |

| The father of Janice's baby is not Matt. || Janice has been having an affair with [[Tom McHenry]]. (''Seven Minutes to Midnight'') || It would make sense that since Janice and Matt have been having so many marital problems that the baby could not be his. Also, the time when she discovered she was pregnant could fit together with the time when she was sleeping with Tom. Also, Janice always seems to be very tense when Matt is around and when he is reading her thoughts, although that could be she is just busy censoring her thoughts for privacy. |
|||
On the other hand, she specifically requested that he read her mind about the baby rather than simply telling him about it, which could be read as evidence that she at least ''believes'' the baby to be Matt's. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Nathan is the father of Janice's baby. || None || Though Nathan has had sexual relations with more than one woman, he has not had sex with Simone Deveaux, Claire Bennet, Janice Parkman, Sandra Bennet, Eden McCain, Charlie Andrews, Hana Gitelman, Kimiko Nakamura, Angela Petrelli, Candace Wilmer and many other females on Heroes. There is no evidence to this claim, however. |

| Angela knows Peter's friend [[Claude]]. || Angela is caught shoplifting socks (''[[Genesis]]''). Her son [[Peter]] meets a man who uses [[invisibility]] to sort of frame him for purse snatching (''[[Distractions]]''). || Claude has behaved as if he encountered people like Peter before — even helped them understand their powers. Perhaps those people include Angela and/or Peter's [[Mr. Petrelli|father]]. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Angela Petrelli has powers. || Both the Petrelli boys have super powers and [[Claire]] has powers because her father [[Nathan Petrelli]] and mother have super powers. || If there is a link between the mother and the passing on of the abilities, it is possible, since all mitochondrial DNA comes from the mother, that this is the key to expressed abilities. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Angela Petrelli is an agent of the [[Company]], who was partnered with Mister Petrelli. || We have seen Claire handed off to be with surrogate parents until she manifests, it is possible that Peter and Nathan were given to the care of Angela and Mr. Petrelli in the same manner. Since the pairing of one person with powers and one person without powers seems to be the norm for the Company, we can hypothesize that Angela Petrelli is the one without powers, and possibly killed her partner before he could go public against Linderman and the AWI. This allowed her to tell Peter (her favorite son) that his father had simply had delusions of grandeur when he committed suicide (she was the one to find him too). || This allowed her to protect her favorite son, since Linderman and the Company already seem to have tabs on Nathan. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Angela Petrelli is part of an organization working against the [[Company]]. || She has been working with [[The Haitian]] and was aware of Claire to a greater degree than [[Nathan]] was. (''[[Parasite]]'') || |
|||
|- |
|||
| The organization working against the [[Company]], of which Angela Petrelli and the Haitian are a part, is a powerful ancient/ancestral organization that has existed for ages. || The Haitian wears the "Godsend" [[symbol]] around his neck, which he has been wearing since before he met [[Mr. Bennet]] (''[[Company Man]]''). Further, the Haitian does not comply with Mr. Bennet's order to make Claire forget In (''[[Fallout]]''). || |
|||
*He probably did not receive the necklace from the Company. |
|||
*He pretended he could not speak when he actually could, an easy manner to retain his information while gaining new data. |
|||
*He tells Claire it is very important that retains her memory. |
|||
*When Claire and the Haitian meet, he tells her very seriously she should be respectful of her gift, for it is God-given (''[[Godsend]]''). This indicates a spiritual/mystical approach of the abilities, as opposed to that of the Company, which seems way more focused on technology, science and DNA analysis. |
|||
* The Haitian clearly says he answers to someone outside the Company, whose orders supersede Bennet's (''[[Company Man]]''). It can be alleged that only an extremely powerful organization can supersede the Company. |
|||
**Though he is in an alliance with Angela, he does not clearly indicate that she is outside the Company. |
|||
* The person whose orders supersede Bennet's is Angela Petrelli (''[[Parasite]]''). Not only does she know Claire's name, but also that she is Nathan's daughter. Although she doesn't say it in so many words, it is also made obvious that she is aware of her family's abilities, she very possibly has an ability (or more) of her own as we have seen that parents with abilities produces gifted off-springs. |
|||
*Angela goes through great lengths to protect Claire by keeping her away for her biological family. |

|- |
|||
| '''</u>The Fake Petrelli Suicide Theory</u>:'''[[Mr. Petrelli]] is not dead, but in hiding from [[Mr. Linderman]], possibly as a part of the [[Wikipedia:United_States_Federal_Witness_Protection_Program|Witness Protection Program/Witness Security Program]]. He faked a suicide with the help of [[Nathan Petrelli]] to protect his wife and family and so not to be put into a position either against his son or against Mr. Linderman.|| Nathan was the one who told Peter that his father was dead, yet when Nathan was almost killed, he felt it. Peter also sensed when [[Charles Deveaux]] passed on, while he didn't sense his own fathers passing.<p> Their mother stated that Nathan was the one who found his father dead.|| Peter's not sensing his father's death could be explained by his powers just developing; however, since Peter's father supposedly committed suicide after [[Nathan's accident]], he had already experienced his first [[vision]].<p> This theory requires that nobody other than those in on the fake suicide, like Nathan, had seen Mr. Petrelli's body, an unlikely scenario that has not been indicated in the show.<p> While Nathan tells Peter that their dad is dead from a heart attack, [[Angela Petrelli]] told [[Peter Petrelli| Peter]] in the hospital that his father suffered delusions of grandeur and had committed suicide. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Linderman orchestrated Mr. Petrelli's death to look like a suicide. || Linderman clearly has enough power to do such a thing, and he benefited from Mr. Petrelli's demise in that Nathan switched from being about to sue him to being a "candidate in his pocket." || |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mister Petrelli was an agent of the AWI and was killed because he was about to reveal company secrets to the public. || Children with powers often seem to be placed in surrogate families until their powers manifest (this seems to be the custom indicated in "Company Man"). It is possible that Mr. & Mrs. Petrelli were given Peter and Nathan and were told to raise them as their own until their powers manifested. Over this time, they had normal lives and grew to regard the AWI agents as their parents, and in order to continue his protection of Peter and Nathan, Mr. Petrelli was prepared to go public. He was killed by the AWI to prevent this, and his partner (though we can't be certain which of them had the powers) Mrs. Petrelli covered it up as a suicide. || Mrs. Petrelli's behavior toward Peter after his semi-failed attempt to fly also can therefore be interpreted as her desire to keep her 'favorite' son from being exposed. |

| [[Mohinder]] has lived in the US prior to Genesis. || Mohinder has a [[Mohinder's taxi license|license]] to drive a taxi cab.

|Mohinder is on the list || Mr. Bennet asks him if he's on the list and he hesitates.<br />His sister [[Shanti]] was described as special; if this means she had powers, then the fact that the Petrelli brothers both have powers would suggest that Mohinder should have powers as well. || Disproven by Joe Pokaski and Aron Coleite. [http://www.comicbookresources.com/news/newsitem.cgi?id=9485] |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mohinder will be the next character killed off. || [[Chandra|His dad]] worked with Sylar and Sylar killed him, he could decide to do the same with Mohinder. || Tim Kring said in an interview that Mohinder is one of the few truly safe characters. |
|||
|- |
|||
| Mohinder's sister, [[Shanti Suresh]], had the ability to morph her body into stone. || When Mohinder remembered his father's reference to having a heart of stone in [[Homecoming]], he tried to think of a connection between the phrase and the password to view [[the list]] on Chandra's computer, and put in Shanti. |

| [[Thompson]] is [[Mr. Bennet's boss]]. || [[Mr. Bennet]] received a text message from "Thompson" asking if [[Hana Gitelman]] had "manifested" while she was being trained at the [[Alaskan facility]]. || Mr. Bennet received a cell phone call from an unidentified superior in [[Fallout]] who gave him instructions regarding [[Sylar]]. |

| [[Sylar]] believes Molly is an [[evolved human]] || It's not yet clear what Sylar's interest in Molly or her parents is, or whether any of them are [[evolved humans]], but he did attempt to kidnap her. However, since the only other of Sylar's victims shown with their [[Brain Removal|brains removed]] have been evolved humans ([[Isaac Mendez]] in the future, [[Charlie]]) or believed by Sylar to be an evolved human (i.e., Sylar thought [[Jackie Wilcox]] was [[Claire Bennet]]), it's quite likely that at least [[James Walker|her father]], who was on [[the list]], possessed superpowers. || [[Mohinder Suresh]] mentioned James Walker when listing those his father believed to have powers. |
|||
[[Hiro Nakamura (future)]] said in a coded email to Hana that he "found Molly Walker and will find others" as part of the Heroes 360 Experience. |

Sylar could have been taking Molly somewhere to take out her brain in seclusion and away from security. |

| Zach has an unknown ability. || None || Zach shares an uncanny similarity in facial features with Mr. Muggles. It is possible that he is a shapeshifter. |

|- |
|||
| He is killed because of [[Claire]]. || None || He no longer remembers [[Claire]]'s power or friendship, having been mind-wiped by [[the Haitian]] in ''[[Episode:Fallout|Fallout]].'' |
|||
|- |
|||
| He is gay. || Confirmed by NBC as not gay, but not yet confirmed in show, so there is a chance that that may change in future. Also his blog was supposed to be designed to be alternate lifestyle friendly || Confirmed off screen by [[Tim Kring]] in an interview with [http://www.out.com/detail.asp?page=1&id=19106 Out magazine]. This most likely means that [[Zach]] is not and never will be gay in the show or graphic novels, but this may change at any time. |

| Zach is actually Claire's twin brother. But neither knows it yet. || They were childhood friends. He can't remember where he heard of Kermit Texas. He has had his memory erased once, and possibly more than once. When he and Claire start hanging out again, Mr. Bennet appears both suspicious and interested in Claire being nice to Zach. || The newspaper article about the fire that supposedly killed Claire's real mom mentioned only a daughter. However, the whole accident, the alleged deaths, and the separation of the parties was clearly part of a conspiracy. Perhaps a lost brother could have been in the mix too ''a la'' Luke and Leia. |

| Zach "remembers" Kermit, TX because he and Claire had previously tried to find her parents and the Haitian took their memories || none || |
