did the girl say how she learned japanese? didnt she say someone gave her a how to book? i could be totally wrong..

but if that is what she said maybe hiro gave it to her in the past when he tried to go back n save her?

Great catch.

I totally overlooked this. She told Hiro and Ando that she got a japanese phrasebook for "her birthday about 6 months ago and just started poking through it last week".

Given that Hiro appeared in her b'day photo at the end of the episode, it's likely that he's the one who gave it to her.

So she was pretending not to recognize him? I'm really wondering how they'll handle the parallel time lines. If Hiro is successful in saving the girl's life, everything will be different. Sort of like the different time lines in Back to the Future 2.
