Nathan's Fate On Heroes Decided Tonight

Will he die or won't he? Fans of NBC's Heroes know that the ultimate fate of Nathan Petrelli has been up in the air all season, stemming from the events of last season's finale. Now, the network is promising the final answer to that question. Which means a lot, considering death is about as liquid on Heroes as most daytime soaps.

NBC describes the episode as such:

SAMUEL STARTS TO SEE HIS VISION TAKE SHAPE - H.R.G. (Jack Coleman) is greeted by some unexpected visitors and Samuel's (Robert Knepper) grand plan begins to come to fruition. Meanwhile, Peter (Milo Ventimiglia) struggles to accept the truth and takes extreme measures to get what he wants. Elsewhere, Claire's (Hayden Panettiere) journey leads her to an unexpected destination. Adrian Pasdar, Zachary Quinto and Cristine Rose also star. Jimmy Jean-Louis, David H. Lawrence XVII, Madeline Zima, Dawn Olivieri, Todd Stashwick and Elisabeth Rohm guest star.

David H. Lawrence XVII? Could the Puppetmaster be returning? There's also a distinctive lack of mention regarding Nathan's ongoing internal struggle with Sylar for the body they both now control. With Nathan's body on ice, a resurrection remains a possibility, but he could just as easily go into the night.

But pictures are worth a thousand words, so video must be worth even more!

Heroes airs Monday nights at 8 PM ET on NBC.
