He said his father also needed glasses at 41. + They are living in The Bennets' new home in Costa Verde, CA. + He likes waffles just like Noah Bennet. + It would also explain why he named his son Noah in a possible future. - Noah received Claude as a partner in the company. The policy was one normal human, one evolved human. Noah did not have a power. + Because they have not seen a power from Noah does not mean he doesn't have one. - In Five Years Gone the Company has a way to difference an evolved human from an regular one. • Maybe this technology has yet to be developed. - Noah could always get a synthetic ability. - The only known vials of the formula left are uncatalyzed. - The writers have been steadfast on the issue of Noah not having a power. + The writers have been known to be inconsistent with what they say sometimes. - Noah could always get a synthetic ability.
Noah, knowing what would happen in the painting, arranged with Mohinder to be shot by him. Mohinder was able to access Claire's blood and used it to revive HRG.	None.	+ Mohinder and HRG had a lot of time together alone in the car to work on a plan. + Mohinder and HRG still planned to take down the Company, even though it appeared that Mohinder was on both sides. - Bennet seemed genuinely surprised when he regained consciousness - it seems unlikely that he expected to be revived in a company facility. + It's possible he was simply surprised by the feeling of being brought back from the dead. Even if he knew it was coming, it's difficult to prepare oneself for something like that. - Mohinder was distraught looking over the gun he had, almost in tears by what he had done. He couldn't have been in two places at the same time. - Noah stopped Mohinder from shooting him when painting 7/8 was realized.
Bennet will always have secrets.	None.	+ He has a history of not telling the truth about his work. Also, he tried to hide the truth about Claire's biological parents from her. + He may be hiding that Claire received her ability through injection. - As all of Claire's maternal side of the family has powers, and these powers run in her paternal side as well, it seems quite unlikely that she was injected with a synthetic ability. Plus, the fact Claire survived the fire as a baby proves that she had the ability from birth. - Only her mother and maternal uncle were shown to have powers. - Noah was seen holding Claire after the fire, so he saved her. - Claire only began displaying a power in Six Months Ago. • It is unknown as to whether Noah knows that The Company developed a formula to grant people abilities.
Noah will eventually die permanently.	None.	+ He died in the explosion future and the exposed future. + 93% of the world died in the outbreak future. Noah was probably among them. - Probably is not a confirmation. - Noah dying in some of the possible futures has nothing to do with the current timeline that the show is following. + Since Noah does not have rapid cellular regeneration, that is a certainty for him to die sometime. • Rapid cell regeneration doesn't completely prevent death, as seen with Arthur.

Noah is, or is secretly working with, Rebel/Libertad.	None.	+ Noah had two opportunities to kill Peter, yet took neither of them. + Noah has been a double-agent before. + In Five Years Gone he hid the harmless evolved humans from the government, while that timeline no longer exists, it still proves he is capable of filling that role.
