Fan Theories
- This episode will deal with acceptance in numerous ways: Peter's acceptance that his brother is dead and currently only exists in the mind of a man with very bushy eye brows, Nathan's acceptance of the fact that he's the figment of a serial killer's imagination, Claire's complete acceptance that she cannot live a normal life (it's about time,) and Noah's acceptance of Sandra moving on to a man that is just as obsessed with show dogs as she is. Mind you, several of the character's may decide to "unaccept" these things in future episodes as the plot asks. Heck, Claire can and has switched back and forth between wanting to live a normal life and an abnormal one in a period of three episodes.

- first: learning to control his power
- second: losing his power
- third: getting his new power
- forth: learning how to use his new power and
