First mentioned: | The Butterfly Effect |
When Mohinder Suresh first discovers a way to give people abilities, his formula isn't complete. Pinehearst's formula is also incomplete, and the results of both lead to violent mutations of any one injected.
About
The Second Coming
Mohinder creates his own version of the formula after believing that control of abilities are found in the adrenaline glands. However, his version is incomplete as it lacks the catalyst. He injects himself with the imperfect formula and immediately manifests super strength.
The Butterfly Effect
Mohinder feels more energetic, he has great agility, and feels that he is a new man. But he finds out later that night that scales have grown on his back. This is the beginning of his mutation.
I Am Become Death
In a possible future, Mohinder has mutated to a state beyond being human. He lives in the dark, is reclusive, has odd behaviors, and has developed a new voice.
It's Coming
Arthur and Mohinder inject their test subject with the imperfect formula. Serious growths and swelling can be seen on the test subject and he is terribly uncomfortable. Later that evening, Mohinder states that the test subject's heartbeat rose to 164 beats per minute, and that level has been sustained for two hours. The test subject then begs Mohinder to kill him to end his pain. Mohinder injects the test subject in the neck, which eventually puts him to sleep.

Notes
- Most people who were exposed to the imperfect formulas died soon after from side effects. Mohinder is the exception, because his formula was different.
