Talk:Timeline:Possible futures

I know the promo said 2012, but wouldn't five years ahead from November, 2006 be November, 2011? Really, Hiro could be in either 2011 or 2012.--Hardvice (talk) 01:29, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

Hey, anyone else see the dates on the door of Issacs apartment when Hiro and Ando enter (approx 40:57). Are these too insignificant to mention here?

3/3/07 6/2/07
3/5/8
4/7/08

• There's really no significance to it until the next episode airs and we find out more about it.--Bob 20:39, 24 April 2007 (EDT)
  • IAWTC. But thanks for noting them here -- they'll be a great reference next week, I'm sure (or at least I hope). — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 20:48, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

Plan for future of this article

If and/or when the events of Nov 8 take place in a different way than Future Hiro or Hiro who traveled to Nov 8 experienced, will we have to move the events detailed here about them to another article? What should that article be named? Suggestions: "Alternate Timeline", "Parallel Timeline". Should we put Claire's death in such an article already? Gregorus 11:53, 26 April 2007 (EDT)

• Since this page is titled "alternate futures", I think it allows for multiple timelines easily enough. The actual events of November 8th (the season finale) will, of course, just go on Timeline:November 2006. As of right now, we only have proof of one "alternate" November 8 (the one Future Hiro participated in and the one Hiro observed--we can't really tell if they're the same or not). Once Five Years Gone airs, we'll probably have a second (where Peter explodes instead of Sylar). I think we can deal with this easily enough with something like this:

November 8, 2006

• After using his power, Hiro teleports to Times Square, New York, NY. (Genesis)
• At a newsstand, he finds 9th Wonders!, Issue #14, with a prophetic drawing of himself on the cover. Using the address in the comic book, he travels to Isaac's studio, only to find Isaac dead on the floor, his head mutilated. He is questioned by Detective Furakowa about the murder, and Hiro is confused to learn that the date is November 8th. To prove the date to Hiro, the detective shows him a newspaper which reads "Petrelli Wins in Landslide". Together, they call Ando, who claims to not have seen Hiro in 5 weeks. There is a sonic boom, and looking out the window, Hiro witnesses the explosion. In a panic, he teleports back to the present to Tokyo. (Don't Look Back)
• In the streets of New York, a massive explosion occurs:
  • First Timeline: Hiro stabs Sylar before he explodes, but Sylar immediately regenerates and explodes.
  • Second Timeline: Because of Future Hiro's message to Peter Petrelli in October 2006, it is Peter, not Sylar, who explodes.

• • But it's not called "Alternate Futures" it's called "Possible Futures" and your solution is very good and solves a definite problem (what happens when there are two "Possible Futures" that need to be taken into account), but what I'm talking about is what happens when the presumably final and definitive events of Nov 8 occur on the show. The events listed here, at that point, would be neither "possible" nor "future," but rather both "alternate" and "past." Gregorus 13:02, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
