Theories

Theory Citations Notes
Eric Doyle is somehow related to Matt Parkman or Maury Parkman. None. + Eric has abilities not unlike Matt or Maury.
- How is telepathy similar to puppet master?
+ How is Micah's technopathy related to D.L.'s phasing or Niki's enhanced strength?
- Niki's ability was synthetic, it could have as-of-yet unknown effects on natural ability inheritance.

+ Eric has similar features to Maury.

- They would have mentioned this earlier as both were locked up in Level 5.

+ Saying puppet master is similar to telepathy is only logical in the sense that they are both at certain levels of mind control, but the starting theory is like saying that Eric Doyle is somehow related to Brian Davis as telekinesis has more in common with puppet master then telepathy does.

Eric Doyle is a misogynist. None. + Eric Doyle tormented no less than four different women in Dying of the Light. To date Doyle has tormented no men.
- According to graphic novels and his assignment tracker profile, Doyle was responsible for at least four male deaths: his uncle, his neighbor, a guy who bullied him in school and a complete stranger who cut him in traffic.
+ These men are all killed coldly and efficiently - his uncle by drowning, his neighbour with a gunshot to the head, the bully with sleeping pills, and the stranger with a car crash. All are simple murders, as opposed to the psychological torture he inflicts on Claire, Sandra, and Meredith.

+ Eric Doyle rejects Meredith's love. Maybe he never really wanted her to love him, he just wanted to force her to bend to his will?

- Eric didn't reject Meredith's love. He just didn't believe her.

+ Eric Doyle never married, nor has had any known healthy relationship with a woman. Perhaps it's because he hates women.
+ In Shades of Gray while about to use his ability on Rachel Mills, Eric quotes "I just have this effect on women."

Rebel somehow orchestrated Doyle's capture and gave him to Danko. None. + In the previous episode Doyle just smiled when Claire asked him if he really had changed. If he had indeed continued in his old ways, ever-principled Micah would have perhaps decided he no longer deserved to be saved from the government.
- Micah's ability does not exactly lend itself to physical capture and elaborate stringing up of a dangerous man like Doyle.

- Sylar's, on the other hand, does, and it would be an interesting place for the character to go having found 'answers' after meeting his father.

+ The promo for the next episode says Danko has an 'unlikely ally'. No-one is more unlikely than Sylar, the ultimate evolved human at this point in the show, to be helping in the capture of his kind.
Eric Doyle is Claire's real father. None. + Doyle's lecherous behavior towards Meredith combined with her contempt for him are consistent with that of a rapist and his victim.

+ Nathan's paternity of Claire was never verified with a DNA test. He only thinks he's her father because Meredith told him so, in an effort to extort money from him. Meredith may have been lying.

- Nathan's sexual adventure in Texas happened at the same time Meredith became pregnant.
- Nothing suggests Doyle has ever been to Texas.

+ Meredith may very well prefer to let Claire think she's the daughter of a famous and wealthy politician rather than the offspring of an incident of rape.

- Meredith can defend herself with her power.
+ She couldn't during Angels and Monsters and Dying of the Light. Doyle has demonstrated the ability to control other people's powers before.

+ Angela may be going along with Meredith's lie due to information from a precognitive dream. She's known to be willing to lie to someone about their parentage for her own benefit.
+ Every confirmed member of the Petrelli family except Claire has black hair.

• This is because all the Petrelli's significant others have black hair. Meredith has blonde hair however.
• So does Flint, which means Claire has 'Gordon' hair.

- Nothing suggests this.

Eric Doyle's real ability is telekinesis. Webisode: Nowhere Man, Part 4 + At the end of the episode Doyle shuts the door using his powers, the puppet master ability is only the ability to control people's actions.
• His ability could have evolved.
