Following up last night’s episode with great spoilers is a tall order but I’ll do what I can in this roundup. Tim Kring (series creator - as if you didn’t know that by now) did a followup interview with TV Guide in regards to last nights big revelation of Nathan being Claire’s bio-father. For those who think the soapy familial tie was done strictly for rating boost, think again. Kring says that it was always in the plan from the beginning and that both Adrian and Hayden knew pretty much out the gate. Claire will find out about Nathan in next week’s episode Chapter Fifteen “Run” but they’re gonna just miss meeting each other. Kring says that Meredith (Claire’s bio-mom) won’t be to prominant this season but hints that she’ll be around for season two (more like avoids the questions). And if you think recent events are causing the rise of the heroes - think again, Kring reveals that people with abilities have been around for millenia - there’s just a whole lot more of them now.

On another front, Kristin at E!Online chimes in with a couple small spoilers herself.  She hints that we haven’t seen the last of Kaito Nakamura (but those who’ve been following spoilers already know the George Tekai stated in an interview that he’s done a scene with Jack Coleman (HRG/Mr.Bennet) that was entirely in Japanese). She mentions something about someone bankrolling him - everything is interconnected. Now we’ve all been hearing that someone important is gonna bite the dust during the February sweeps. But Kristin drops this little hint “There’s one person you probably think they would never kill off because of his or her special role on the series. But what if there were someone who could instantly absorb that person’s special role?”
