Eric Doyle is an escaped prisoner from Level 5. He has the ability to control a person's physical actions.
Character History
Elle accidentally knocks out the Level 5 power grid with an electrical outburst, inadvertently giving the Primatech Research prisoners the chance to escape. While Knox, the German, Jesse, and the others escape, Eric is running after them.
Meredith looks through some of Noah's files with Sandra Bennet and becomes worried when she finds Eric's file. She notes that Eric doesn't live too far, and since Claire has lied about where she went, said she'd check there first. Sandra tries to follow her, but Meredith stops her, as it's too dangerous. Later, Meredith is sitting at dinner with Eric, moving exactly as he does, thanks to his ability to control another's actions. He tells her to eat, then demands a kiss. Meredith tries aggressively to tell him off, but he shuts her mouth by snapping his fingers closed, and they kiss. They sit back down, and Eric seems very pleased with himself.
Eric is thrown into a cell on Level 5. Noah Bennet enters and describes three "suicides"--Marcus Wilde, Stephen Taylor, and Tristan Rivers--caused by Doyle. Eric demands a lawyer, but Bennet tells him he's not the police. Two years later, an agent named Michael chats with Eric while bringing his meal. They discuss the differences between "us" and "them", and Michael speculates that Bennet let Sylar kill Eden. When Elle's electrical outburst knocks out the power, Eric's cell opens. Michael tries to stop the escaping prisoner, but Eric uses his power to force Michael to kill himself with his own lasers.
