Man, the first generation was COLD, wasn't it? Claude wasn't exactly the nicest dude, Thompson, Ma Petrelli, apparently Linderman and Pa Petrelli were also not very nice people in the comic (which I haven't read yet), and Linderman's definitely not nice NOW. Mohinder's parents may or may not have wanted him above and beyond saving his special sister. Creepy Pa Takei Nakamura.
...are ANY of the first-gen adults nice/sane? Bennet seems to be the only one that "fell" off the corrupt, scheming, and evil train, save for the Sureshes, who may or may not have really wanted Mohinder. And they're the ones without powers.
...powers = evil-making. Obv.
Okay, there probably wasn't a lot of sexual there, but really, does Ma Sylar really strike you as the kind of person that would encourage sexual expression? Despite being exactly the sort of woman that should have been asking "when are you going to settle down with a nice girl, you know that investment banker I was talking about has a very sweet daughter, you should go on a date with her..." Nothing. But in almost every way, he was acting tied to her apron strings (save for the occasional droopy-eyed rebellion of smacking her with a snowglobe).
That would be the best scene ever. And then he'd make some snarky comment about Bennet having been just this bad in the past, and Parkman would make some comment about Claude being middle management, and then they'd ALL get knocked cold.
