Theories
| Theory | Citations | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Usutu was not born with the ability of precognition; he gained it artificially. | None. | + Matt Parkman seems to enter a trance after consuming Usutu's paste, and then listening to Usutu's Walkman. Usutu might use the same paste to make his drawings. (I Am Become Death) + After death, Usutu seems to be 'passing on' his gift of precognition to Matt somehow. Thus, it is likely that Usutu originally got his ability artificially from an older precog.
|
| Part of Usutu's ability is to allow others to experience his visions. | Matt Parkman has a vision of the future after eating Usutu's paste and listening to his walkman. (Episode:I Am Become Death) | - Since Usutu's visions have been mainly focused on Matt, perhaps only Matt is able to experience them. This might also only be possible because of Matt's telepathy. + The food and walkman may only be necessary to put Matt's mind in the right state of consciousness, much like Isaac's heroin, but Usutu is able to access his ability without them. Matt may have to be in Usutu's presence to channel his vision. |
| Usutu let Arthur kill him for a reason. | None. | + Usutu can see the future. It would be possible that he can see that letting Arthur kill him would be for the greater good.
- Arthur is much stronger than Hiro was. Usutu would need more than a shovel to stop him. |
| Usutu is a spirit guide. | In Dual, Matt sees him after Daphne and Hiro return. | - Usutu was visibly beheaded by Arthur in It's Coming, suggesting a physical body.
• Matt might have been telepathically connected to Usutu when he died, allowing him to experience Usutu's ghost through visions. |
| Usutu has some connection to Uluru. | None. | + Their names are very similar.
