What the heck is gonna happen on "Heroes?"

Many viewers of "Heroes" have complained that the series is in the dreaded "sophomore slump". Personally, I think they just have a lot of story to tell, and it takes a while to get there. Consider it like a novel- you have to get through the first few chapters in order to get to the action-y good stuff.

So what's going to happen on upcoming episodes? Monday, 11/12, we'll see what happened right after Nathan flew off with Peter. Nathan was severely burned, and somehow miraculously cured (there is the storyline that tells us Claire's blood may hold the key to stopping the new strain of the hero-killer virus, so maybe that's what helped Nathan). It's also rumored that this new "cure" may be able to help some dead heroes too...It's possible that DL survived the shooting, but actually died inadvertently because of something Nikki did. We'll also see how Peter came to know Adam and Electric Elle, and how Adam has convinced him that they need to do something to save the world (which, knowing that Sark- uh Kensei- has had 400 years to stew over losing his princess to Hiro, it's probably going to be something that will, say, kill off 93% of the world's population).

Should the strike not reach a resolution soon, the 11th episode could possibly serve as a season finale. An alternate ending has been shot just in case.

There are also reports that two heroes will die, and one will come out of the closet, so to speak. Someone who previously has shown no powers now will be.
