Theory	Citations	Notes
Sandra's condition is caused by repeatedly being subjected to The Haitian's power. If her health continues to degenerate, Mr. Bennet will eventually be discovered and forced to reveal the truth about his organization.	Sandra looks visibly ill when she returns from the doctor (Run!). She further shows evidence of unexplained brain hemorrhaging. (Unexpected).	• Events in Company Man corroborate this theory. • Mr. Bennet considers himself responsible for her illness. - Mr Bennet is no longer with the company. - He also has already told her everything.
Sandra's condition was caused by the blow to the head that she suffered from Sylar's attack or another blow that the Haitian had erased from her memory so she did not seek appropriate medical treatment.	The doctor reviewing Sandra's case to Claire asks if she has been battered or suffered a serious blow. (Run!)	• This question would be a routine one given the nature of the injury, and probably indicates the doctor was still trying to diagnose the cause, not reporting her findings. A subdural hematoma ("bruise") in the brain would usually be caused by heavy impact to the skull.
Sandra Bennet has the ability to affect probability.	When forced by Eric Doyle to play Russian Roulette with Claire and Meredith, Sandra is shown focusing on the spinning gun. When she blinks, the gun stops moving. (Dying of the Light)	+ This would explain the gun stopping first on Doyle, then on Claire. + Also explains her headaches. • Since when does probability manipulation cause headaches? - Her headaches were probably caused by her memory erasure. + May also explain why Mr. Muggles won all his competitions. • Mr.Muggles competitions were most likely not based on probability, and her headaches weren't either. • Charlie did not know her memory skills were an evolved ability, Sandra may not realize either.
Sandra wants powers.	Everytime Meredith shows Sandra what she can do to protect Claire, she seems to feel useless, and wants powers to save Claire herself for once.	- She did at the time, but she's proven that just by being a normal human she can do good such as when she helped Claire defeat Eric Doyle. Claire never could have done it without her help.
Sandra and Noah will get a divorce/estrange in Volume 4.	In a alternative future they are apart and still alive.	+ They love Claire, but she is frequenty endangered as a result of Noah's actions. They may decide to separate for her sake. - How would them separating be safer for Claire? + Sandra might take custody of Claire, to keep her away from Noah, who has a rather dangerous job. • Noah's life style for his family is too much for them all to bear - Sandra has had to watch her daughter be shot, run over, burned and in her death bed. - The explosion future didn't happen. + The writers have said the explosion future is slowly coming true, and we saw Sandra and Noah decide to take a break. Maybe they won't ever get back together.
