| The dead man in the [[:Image:Painting eight of eight.jpg|8th painting]] is ''not'' [[Noah Bennet]]. || None ||
[[Image:Lindermans archives president.jpg|thumb|center]] {{plus}} Other paintings have shown the results of [[Illusion|illusions]], ''e.g.'' ''The President Stands Alone'' turned out to be [[Sylar (future)|Sylar]], masquerading as [[Nathan]]. <br> {{plus}} It could be that Noah's father is still alive and is the one shown dead in 8/8.
:{{note}} Noah's father may have been a member of the [[group of twelve]].<br>{{minus}}The only two shown with glasses in the [[Group of Twelve]] are known to be [[Mr. Petrelli]] and [[Bob]].<br> {{note}} It can also be someone who didn't wear glasses at the time the picture was taken but wears glasses now.

{{plus}} The man in the painting appears to be wearing plaid. Mr. Bennet seems like the kind of man who wouldn't be caught dead in plaid. So to speak.
|-
| The [[:Image:Painting eight of eight.jpg|8th painting]] does not picture the actual death of HRG. || None || {{plus}}It might not be Noah in the painting. (See above) <br>
{{plus}}Future events painted by Isaac have been prevented, ''e.g.'' [[:Image:Painting the explosion.jpg|the bomb did not go off in the middle of New York City]] in our current [[timeline]]. (''[[How to Stop an Exploding Man]]'').<br>{{plus}}Isaac could have altered the painting after he initially painted it.<br>{{plus}}The painting could depict events in someone's nightmare, as induced by [[Maury Parkman]].
|-
| The painting portraying Noah's death is a fake planted by the [[Company]]. || None || {{plus}} It is very convenient that this was the only painting left for Mohinder to find. <br>{{note}} This implies that the Company knows about Noah and Mohinder's alliance. <br>
|-
| The [[:Image:Painting eight of eight.jpg|8th painting]] does not actually picture [[Claire]]. || None || {{plus}} Lack of facial detail caused confusion of which cheerleader was murdered on the part of [[Peter]] and [[Noah|HRG]]. <br> {{plus}} The painting could depict any of a number of other blonde characters.
|-
| The figure embracing Claire in the picture is [[West]]. || None. || {{plus}} West is currently in a romantic relationship with Claire. <br> {{plus}} If the dead body depicted is indeed Noah Bennet, West is a likely suspect in the murder: West was once "bagged and tagged" by Noah when the latter worked at the Company, and may want revenge. The picture may be depicting the immediate aftermath of Noah's death. <br> {{minus}} The blonde girl in the picture may not be Claire, and it is unlikely that, if West were present, he would be embracing someone else. <br> {{minus}} The two figures embracing in the painting are roughly the same height. West is shown to be quite a bit taller than Claire, if the blonde girl is indeed Claire.
|-
| [[Jessica]] is the blonde girl in the painting of Noah's death. [[Mohinder]] is the shadowy character, and is also the one who killed Noah. || None. || {{plus}} Mohinder is becoming increasingly unwilling to follow the will of Mr. Bennet, as evidenced in ''[[The Line]]''. <br> {{plus}} Painting 7/8 in the [[series of eight]] depicts Mohinder holding a smoking gun. (''[[The Line]]'') In painting 8/8, Mr. Bennet is obviously dead due to a gunshot wound in his eye. <br> {{note}} The person who Mohinder believes to be Niki at the end of ''[[The Line]]'' might actually be Jessica, as Niki/Jessica's sudden recovery, employment by [[the Company]], and coming on to Mohinder seems uncharacteristic of Niki.<br>
:{{plus}} Niki/Jessica is wearing the same black outfit that Jessica is seen wearing previously in the series.
:{{plus}} Jessica has shown that she is capable of using her sex appeal to manipulate others. She could manipulate Mohinder into killing Noah.<br>
{{plus}} Niki/Jessica claims that she is working for [[the Company]] now. (''[[The Line]]'') Since Noah is working to bring down [[the Company]], Niki/Jessica would want him eliminated.<br>
{{plus}} The two people kissing in painting 8/8 are roughly the same height. Jessica and Mohinder are roughly the same height.
|-
|[[Niki]] is the blond woman hitting the metallic surface. || The surface may be a mirror || {{plus}} Niki bears a resemblance to the character as both have blond hair and brown eyes brows. They also have a similar facial structure. <br> {{plus}} If the surface is a mirror than Niki could be beating it in an attempt to ask Jessica for help as the mirror was her source of communication with Jessica who is now (apparently) gone.
|-
|The vial in painting 3 is a vial containing the 'Shanti' virus. || None. || {{plus}} The blood in the background could symbolise the destructive effect of the virus
|-
|The shadowy figure holding [[Claire]] in the [[:Image:Painting eight of eight.jpg|8th painting]] is [[Sylar]], after having regained full use of his abilities including [[Candice]]'s power of [[Illusion]]. The painting shows another attempt by Sylar to steal [[Claire]]'s [[regeneration|ability]] through an elaborate illusion, perhaps making her believe that Sylar had disguised himself as her father and is now neutralized. || None. || {{plus}} As seen in ("[[Five Years Gone]]") Sylar highly values Claire's power of regeneration and has been shown to use illusions in order to steal her ability. <br> {{plus}} The silhouette of the shadowy figure has hair similar to [[Sylar]]'s (i.e. spiky in front). <br> {{plus}} Sylar has been depicted as the shadowy figure in [[Isaac]]'s paintings before, e.g. the [[:Image:Painting_claire_menaced.jpg|painting]] of Clair running and the [[:Image:Painting_claire_murdered.jpg|painting]] Peter finished.
|-
|The painting 6/8 is set in the present. || None. || {{plus}}Hiro might bring Takezo in to the future, accidentally or not.
:{{plus}} No one knows what happened with Takezo Kensei.

{{plus}}Takezo might still be alive.

{{note}}The colors in the background are green, impling a more natural place.

{{plus}}The painting at least appear to be in chronological order, and it would be weird that the event was placed in the far different pass and be numbered after Kaito's death (1/8)
