Notes

• Isaac's paintings are produced for the show by comic book artist Tim Sale.
• There is fan speculation that the painting in Simone's portfolio is the missing painting. Alternately, the finished version of the girl with pom-poms could provide the needed clue.

Fan Theories

• In Homecoming, Mr. Bennet is pushing Eden and Isaac to create more paintings. Isaac finally paints one that shows that Sylar will be on the hilltop after the incident at the high school. Eden goes there with The Haitian, and together they apprehend him. This would explain how Eden and The Haitian were casually waiting (and hiding), knowing Sylar would appear.
