I keep thinking about what Diego did in the finale with the bullets.
Diego’s ability always sort of baffled me, because the mechanics behind it are unknown, all we knew was that he was adjusting an object’s trajectory in mid air. I always wondered what the limits on this kind of ability were? We have gotten proof now that it has nothing to do with him throwing it. When the agents all fired, he caught them in midair and forced their trajectory sideways.
This revelation hit me like a ton of bricks, and I have no idea why nobody else is talking about it. Because it’s obvious that Diego has what seems to be a form of telekinetic ability. Now he might not be able to lift things that are not in motion, that’s why I think he only uses it when throwing things. An object already in motion might be easier for him to correct, but regardless, he is using some sort of ability to alter their movement.
Even his landing in the first episode, that’s not just him being THAT bitch (I mean he is that bitch, but that’s another story entirely). The others landed pretty hard, so I’m thinking that Diego has learned how to alter the impact of his own body by not only regular training but also with his ability.
The possibilities this could open him up to are amazing. If he jumps from a building, could he then alter his trajectory at the last second and decrease the force impact so that he could land on his feet from large heights? Could he have Luther throw a car at him and he launch its trajectory somewhere else??? If he’s altering trajectory and impact, the force of which things move, could he then reverse this impact, giving him the ability to levitate objects or even himself???
Look, I don’t read the comics or even really want to. And I know these possibilities are unlikely but you have to admit that the scene with the bullets changes the game for Diego. I think they all might have a lot to learn about themselves, Five is still perfecting time travel, Viktor is learning about how he can use his powers for good, Klaus is learning to manifest and use spirits. Who’s to say Diego doesn’t have something up his sleeve?
