Theory	Citations	Notes
Linda Tavara will be a villain in Season Three.	None.	+ Quote: "After I steal his power...no one will be able to stop me." - Linda is dead. + She could've gained the power of Illusion and fake her dead. + It seems odd to include her so mysteriously into the lives of Linderman and Arthur and then just kill her.
Adam's eleventh wife is Linda Tavara.	None.	+ Adam says that his newest wife will find him. This seems to imply that this person either has a power, or is a skilled tracker. Linda has a power, and was a private investigator. - Linda is dead. + Why give Linda a backstory if she wasn't going to appear in future episodes. - Episodes and novels are not inter-connected for the most part. Since there is quite a while until the Episodes return the novel writers come up with unrelated story lines. This is what happened with the season 1-2 break. - Even if Linda survived, she would be a little bit old to be Adam's newest wife. + Adam is 400 years old. He's been with dozens of women young and old. + During those 40-odd years, she could have gained a power that slowed her aging.
Linda Tavara may have had an ability that helped her survive the fire.	None.	+ There are many abilities that could have saved her such as pyrokinesis or illusion. + She may have gained several other as-yet unknown abilities using her power. + She may also have the power of replication.
Linda Tavara has the power of Illusion.	None.	- She has shown no evidence or having or using this ability. + There's no evidence that she survived the fire, but it doesn't mean she didn't.
Linda will meet Sylar.	None.	+ They are like-minded people and it would be an interesting twist if they met. - Linda is dead. • If they did meet, Sylar would most likely kill her and steal her power. • Or the other way around. • From a writing perspective, having three people with potentially limitless powers is a bit of a trouble spot. • Pretty cool though.
Linda was hired by the Pinehearst Company.	None.	+ We don't know what organization hired Linda. + The Pinehearst company seems to want to create an evolved human army. Linda would've been the perfect candidate for the team had this been the case. + This would also explain why they wanted Linda to hunt down evolved humans. Though they may not have foreseen her betrayal. - It is likely Pinehearst was formed after Arthur left the Company. Linda began working long before the Company was formed. + Pinehearst could have been the predecessor to the Company. The writers have referred to Primatech as the Company 2.0.

- |Linda was just in the novels to introduce Arthurs ability Sylar. | None. | + She is dead and her ability is like Arthurs.
