Notes

| The Watcher is Teddy. |
None |
+ Teddy and "The Watcher" wear similar clothing (hats and pink shirts) and have similar facial hair.
+ When Teddy made a cart disappear (Tabula Rasa), he did it in front of the ball toss game. The Watcher is the ball toss attendant.
+ Teddy's ability allows him to hide things. The Watcher mysteriously pops out of nowhere, perhaps being able to make himself disappear.
- Teddy's ability appears similar to dimensional storage. That wouldn't explain how he could appear and disappear in literally the blink of an eye.
+ In chapter 7 of Slow Burn, the Watcher made Jennie Bowman inaudible and invisible. This seems like a possible application of cloaking.
- They have different abilities.
- + Teddy could have manipulated Sylar's eyes to make it seem as though the cart disappeared.
- - Samuel would know if this wasn't Teddy's ability.
- + Teddy could have manipulated everyone into believing this was his ability.
- + Nothing suggests that Samuel does not know what Teddy's ability is.
- The Watcher claims that every wept when they discovered he was gone but gradually accepted it. The carnies still know Teddy is around.
- + He never stated who wept for him. It could have been his family, at a time before he joined the carnival.
