Hana has a list of evolved humans.	She knew where Ted was. (Unexpected)	+ She could've intercepted some of Mohinder's phone calls or emails, or even accessed the list on Mohinder's computer. - Ted's name has not been visible on the list in any aired episodes, nor has his name been mentioned to be on it. • This does not necessarily mean he is not on the list. - Hana could also have tracked Ted using her powers quite easily, assuming Ted left some kind of electronic trail in reaching Nevada. Even if the Company kept Ted's escape and existence out of the media, their own e-mail and phone-calls would still be accessible to Hana. Hana did get to Ted just before Homeland Security did, making it more than likely she was piggy-backing off their reconnaissance. (How Do You Stop an Exploding Man?, Part 1)
Hana has Asperger Syndrome.	None.	+ Her Mossad psychological profile explicitly suggests it, citing a "difficulty in understanding the subtext of social interactions". This would account for her tendency toward inappropriate reactions, such as hitting the IDF enlisting officer, and the unsubtle "seduction" of Casey Smith. - That does not necessarily indicate Asperger's; trouble with social situations can be the cause of lack of exposure to social interaction as well as traumatic experiences. The latter definitely applies to Hana.
Hana will show up in future episodes as "The Ghost in the Machine". Her essence still exists within the confines of the Internet.	Graphic Novel, The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 2 sets this up already when she is talking with Micah.	- The End of Hana and Drucker seems to indicate that her 'code' has been destroyed permanently.
Hana may now possibly go rampant, the condition of a Computer AI becoming insane.	The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 2 explains a virus affected her body, and now that she is part of the machine world, rampancy may become a future factor in Hana's story.	- The End of Hana and Drucker seems to indicate that her 'code' has been destroyed permanently. + Hana's ability demonstrated the capacity for wireless transmission, giving the possibility that she may have copied herself to another computer. + In the Graphic Novel The End of Hana and Drucker, right before the mainframe is destroyed, Hana says, "Phir Milengay, Drucker." This is Hindi for "We will meet again, Drucker," implying that she knew she was about to be deleted, but that she also knew she would survive it somehow.
With the help of Noah Bennet, Hana will be returned to human form.	None.	+ Hana Gitelman was alive in 2011 in the explosion future. - The explosion may have caused the cancellation of the launch of the Chinese rocket, preventing her from destroying the satellite. - The End of Hana and Drucker seems to indicate that her 'code' has been destroyed permanently. + Nothing is impossible in the realm of Heroes, Hiro can time travel and is now known by Noah Bennet which can possibly lead to another encounter with Micah. If the three meet up and make a plan it is possible they can save Hana and her uncle from deletion. Bennet may have found out about Hana's death through company records and informs Hiro that he must save her for her ability will be of great need for the upcoming conflict. Hiro can take Micah back in time so he can warn Hana before she is deleted or before her physical death. - Hiro no longer has his ability. + Hiro can get his powers back, like Peter did. And the theory of Ando supercharging a small remainder of Hiro's power, is possible since last time Arthur took only a chunk of Hiro's memory and not all of it. - It is not known if a remainder of abilities is left behind. - Memories and powers differ vastly. - Arthur got distracted with the eclipse paintings and was interrupted by Ando. Also, the power he uses to take another power and the power he uses to erase memories are different, having different mechanics, different limits and different workings. Taking a power removes all traces of a power. There is a level of control when removing memories, as the Haitian has displayed many times. + The main point is that Arthur doesn't have to do everything 100% in order for him to take what he came for. Yes he got distracted, but he knew he didn't finish the job... did he care? Same thing can go for taking powers. - Not having to isn't the same thing as not doing, Arthur said he's very paranoid, he would do. - Again, taking powers and taking memories are two different things, two different powers that have no relation between themselves. Nothing indicates it's possible to remove part of an ability, it's either take it all or don't take. • In War Buddies, Hana used her skills to get into the Pentagon to access classified government information, she got in and out with out much trouble and since Fugitives will revolve around the government it is likely they need some one on the inside. • They can introduce a new character with that ability, no need to bring Hana back.
Hana is either part of, or is, Libertad/Rebel.	None.	- Hana and Drucker were both deleted. + The writers did say over the summer that Hana would return. + While Hana and Drucker were both deleted in The End of Hana and Drucker, there is evidence suggesting that Hana did in fact survive deletion on the mainframe e.g. her ability is wireless, giving the possibility that she copied herself to another system. She told Drucker that they would meet again as if she knew that they would not die. Also, Rebel's communications imply a couple of things, 1) replies to text messages are instantaneous, i.e. not being done by hand, and 2) Rebel is aware of/intercepting communications from Nathan's team and using that information to inform those with abilities on what to do next.
