1. Shooting Peter at point blank range in the back of the skull (as they discussed a few episodes ago) could probably kill him if it destroyed enough of his brain, which is the source of the powers. No brain, no regeneration.
2. This bugged me a bit but I think the idea is Peter was overloading and losing control of all the powers he'd accumulated and he couldn't manage to fly away on his own. (Would have liked to have seen him try though.)
3. + 4. Science and this show are like unmixy things. I gave up on them ever getting anything right in the pilot when Mohinder asserted that human beings only use 10% of their brain. Completely false. A myth that continues to be propagated by superhero shows (see also: The 4400).
I totally called the Nathan flying off with Peter thing in the car on the way to a Heroes viewing party. I refuse to believe that either character is dead until I see a corpse (yeah, I know vaporized, still won't buy it). I can't see them really killing off two of their best actors. o_O
