Theory	Citations	Notes
The Company (or Bob) did something with Niki/Jessica so she'll do everything Mohinder tells her to do.	None.	+ There are other evolved humans who are slavish to someone who works for the company. - The "slavish" actions were because of Eden McCain's power of persuasion, however she committed suicide in Fallout and there have been no other confirmed cases of this power. • The Haitian is kind of slavish to Mr. Bennet. • The Haitian was brought to Bennet as a boy, and Bennet probably gave him the same care he would a son. This could mean that the Haitian reveres Bennet like a second father, and would explain why he works with him in all seeming cases.
Despite the events of Powerless, Niki is still alive.	None.	+ We never actually see a body -only the explosion of the building Niki was in. It is entirely possible that she managed to escape somehow. + The explosion of Peter led viewers to believe that both Peter and his brother, Nathan, were dead at the end of Volume 1. It's possible a similar bait-and-switch occurred here. - The previews suggested that two Heroes would "fall". Nathan was one and Niki seems to be the other. + The same sort of prediction was made when Noah was shot. This may mean that Niki is down, but not completely out. It also could easily have referred to Maya getting shot. - Not even Niki could have survived that explosion, as she had no exit and it happened almost immediately after Monica went out. + Tim Kring said in an interview regarding Volume 3, that Niki's fate was "up in the air and will be determined when we come back after the (Writer's Guild) strike." + Maybe her power is taking on the personality and powers of those that die near her. Might even be more specialized to include those that she is close to or she can choose who. If she was able to take on D.L.'s power, she could have gotten out of there. Or, if D.L. is somehow still alive, he may have gotten her out of there.
Gina was the one who attacked Bob in Fight or Flight not Niki or Jessica.	None.	+ At the end of Season 1 Niki and Jessica integrated into one personality, so Jessica couldn't be the one who attacked Bob. + In Four Months Ago Gina is the current personality existing in Niki before she turns herself into The Company. + Gina, just like Jessica would be able to access Niki's super strength.
