I guess they threw that in there to give newcomers a hint of how dangerous he can be, or for some fun for fans who like seeing the downtrodden stand up against their downtreaders or like seeing the "good guys" on a show show off some power and be imposing once in a while. But to me it seemed out of character, unwise, and immoral; the first because he's always been the type to excercise power more quietly and subtly rather than with a physical in-your-face style, the second because it calls attention to him when they're supposed to be going unnoticed, and the third because he was using it not to protect his established rights but to overstep them and take extra which priviledges he's not allowed within the rules and his counterparts still won't get.

It was not fun to see him engaging in potentially dangerous activities and hiding it from his from his family again.

A handful of accounts of strange people washing up on Scottish and Irish shores over the centuries are thought to have been Innuit from Greenland. Of course, most or all of them were dead, but we don't know if Peter found a boat out there that was taking advantage of the currents to get there deliberately, or if his powers allowed his survival without one...

What I wondered about was the flash of blue light from his hand which seemed to propel someone away from him. That's difference from regular telekinesis; when and how did he get it? And why can someone who had such a hard time learning ot use his powers and has "blown up" at least once due to that lack of control now use them at a moment's notice without even knowing who he is?
