Notes
|
| Linda Tavara will be a villain in Season Four. |
None. |
+ Quote: "After I steal his power... no one will be able to stop me."
- Linda is dead.
- + She could have gained the power of Illusion and fake her death.
+ It seems odd to include her so mysteriously into the lives of Linderman and Arthur and then just kill her.
+ Arthur Petrelli was thought to be dead but returned, it is likely this is what may happen to Linda.
|
| Adam's eleventh wife is Linda Tavara. |
None. |
+ Adam says that his newest wife will find him. This seems to imply that this person either has a power, or is a skilled tracker. Linda has a power, and was a private investigator.
- - Linda is dead.
- + Why give Linda a backstory if she wasn't going to appear in future episodes.
- - Episodes and novels are not inter-connected for the most part. Since there is quite a while until the episodes return the novel writers come up with unrelated story lines. This is what happened with the season 1-2 break.
- Even if Linda survived, she would be a little bit old to be Adam's newest wife.
- + Adam is 400 years old. He's been with dozens of women young and old.
- + During those 40-odd years, she could have gained a power that slowed her aging.
|
| Linda Tavara may have had an ability that helped her survive the fire. |
None. |
+ There are many abilities that could have saved her such as pyrokinesis or illusion.
+ She may have gained several other as-yet unknown abilities using her power.
+ She may also have the power of replication.
|
| Linda Tavara has the power of Illusion. |
None. |
- She has shown no evidence or having or using this ability.
+ There's no evidence that she survived the fire, but it doesn't mean she didn't.
|
| Linda will meet Sylar. |
None. |
+ They are like-minded people and it would be an interesting twist if they met.
- Linda is dead.
• If they did meet, Sylar would most likely kill her and steal her power.
• Or the other way around.
• From a writing perspective, having four people with potentially limitless powers is a bit of a trouble spot.
- • Pretty cool though.
|
| Linda was hired by the Pinehearst Company. |
None. |
+ We don't know what organization hired Linda.
+ The Pinehearst company seems to want to create an evolved human army. Linda would've been the perfect candidate for the team had this been the case.
+ This would also explain why they wanted Linda to hunt down evolved humans. Though they may not have foreseen her betrayal.
- It is likely Pinehearst was formed after Arthur left the Company. Linda began working long before the Company was formed.
- + Pinehearst could have been the predecessor to the Company. The writers have referred to Primatech as the Company 2.0.
|
| Linda was just in the novels to introduce Arthur's ability. |
None. |
+ She is dead and her ability is like Arthur's.
|
| Linda is Arthur Petrelli. |
In War Buddies Arthur doesn't display any power. |
+ Linda could have stolen Illusion from someone.
+ Linda then could have followed and killed Arthur to get close to Linderman.
+ Linda has been living as Arthur Petrelli, to keep Linderman from knowing that she is actually the woman who almost killed him.
- They clearly have different powers.
- + They have very similar powers, and over 30 years, Linda might learn how to not kill people from removing the power.
- • This is very plausible considering Arthur has very advanced control over newfound abilities than people like Sylar and Peter do.
- - Linda's notebook has a page for Arthur Petrelli with his address. It would be unlikely for her to do this if she herself was Arthur Petrelli.
- • She may not have killed him and taken his place yet.
- + It is conceivable that Linda may have more than just power theft, she may be able the ability to absorb people and every part of them including memories, skills, body and power
- - There is no evidence she has developed this ability.
