Sugesting that somehow Molly's abilities have anything to do with Peter exploding is REALLY stretching it - especially when you dismiss Ted as a minor character when Molly has been on screen all of 10 minutes (if that) this season.
That's all I'm getting at. The show has taken surprising twists and turns all season, and I concede it's entirely possible the writers may have yet another one up their sleeves. But based on what we'vr seen, we have no reason not to think that someone acquiring Ted's ability, or Ted himself, is what is behind the explosion in NYC.

I'm curious to know why you think Ted is going to help Peter destroy NYC. It's either too obvious, or it doesn't make sense. I choose both. He is a guest-starring, re-occuring character, who's already demostrated his powers in the Bennett house. Why would the writers take him in that direction again? Surely they haven't run out of ideas already, have they? Ted IS a minor character at this point in the series, nowhere near tied in to the destruction of NY as say Peter, Nathan, Hiro, and a host of others. He didn't even have any idea what the hell was going on until Bennett told him that he and Matt had to go to NYC.
Given the twists and turns of the series, and given the popularity of the show, I doubt they're going to let Ted be the one to help destroy NYC. Too predictable, and an idea that is going to leave the show grasping for straws. Sylar, Molly, and other characters are too important for Ted to catalyze the ending.
