[Jefferson] Last season on
Black Lightning...

00:00:01,161 --> 00:00:03,120
Now, the purpose
of Black Lightning
3
00:00:03,121 --> 00:00:05,810
was to kill Tobias,
who killed my father.

00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:06,820
[groans]
5
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:08,850
I got that Green Light.
6
00:00:08,930 --> 00:00:11,400
Oh, I got your Green Light.
7
00:00:11,470 --> 00:00:13,310
[Gambi] Thirty years ago,
I came to Freeland
8
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,860
as an agent for a government
organization called the ASA.
9
00:00:15,930 --> 00:00:17,690
They were conducting
an experiment in Freeland.
10
00:00:17,770 --> 00:00:20,570
Their vaccine inadvertently
created metahumans.
11
00:00:20,650 --> 00:00:22,570
People with special powers.
12
00:00:22,580 --> 00:00:24,620
Yeah, I don't wanna have powers.
I don't wanna save the world.
13
00:00:24,690 --> 00:00:26,450
[Lynn] I've been
doing some analysis.
14
00:00:26,530 --> 00:00:28,540
It turns out that the vaccine's
related to Green Light.
15
00:00:28,610 --> 00:00:29,550
[Thunder] Dad.
16
00:00:32,030 --> 00:00:34,040
I need you to find
Black Lightning.
17
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,640
I finished the project you were
working on before you got hurt.
18
00:00:39,310 --> 00:00:40,430
[Tobias] Painkiller.
19

You're a monster.
22
00:00:47,090 --> 00:00:48,470
That's funny coming from you.
23
00:00:48,550 --> 00:00:50,930
You're right.
24
00:00:51,010 --> 00:00:52,600
[Thunder] Okay, how do we
get them out the pods?
25
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:54,230
I... I need the briefcase.
26
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:55,980
[Syonide] From our man
in the coroner's office...
27

28
00:00:58,100 --> 00:00:59,400
Mmm.
29
00:00:59,410 --> 00:01:01,570
You're looking at
the king of Freeland.
30
00:01:01,580 --> 00:01:02,750
Long live the king.

45

[man 1] Amen!
46

It's all right. It's okay.

- [woman 3] Take your time.
48
00:01:58,370 --> 00:02:04,630
The killing of Issa Williams is proof
that this drug, Green Light...

[woman 4]
Lord knows! Lord knows!
50
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,100
Has left our community
in grave danger.
51
00:02:10,170 --> 00:02:16,020
There are people infected with this drug who
are running around with dormant powers.
52
00:02:16,030 --> 00:02:17,480
- [woman 5] Yes.
- [man 2] That's right.
53
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,820
And the police are
using that as an excuse
54
00:02:20,890 --> 00:02:25,280
to continue to hunt down young
black men and young black women
55
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,160
with a "shoot first, ask
questions later" mentality!

But I'm here to tell you...

- [woman 6] That's right.
- [woman 7] All right.
59
00:02:36,030 --> 00:02:39,000
The police have been
killing and shooting
60
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,840
- and brutalizing and terrorizing...
- [woman] Yeah! Yes, Reverend!
61
00:02:41,910 --> 00:02:46,880

Green Light hit the streets of Freeland!

[Rose] Three months ago, the
One Hundred invaded Garfield,
64
00:02:53,230 --> 00:02:56,570
resulting in a faculty member
and a student being kidnapped,
65
00:02:56,650 --> 00:02:58,190
your daughters.
66
00:02:58,260 --> 00:03:00,230
A week ago, three suspects
invaded the school,
67
00:03:00,310 --> 00:03:02,820
one who shot students
with poisoned darts,
68
00:03:02,890 --> 00:03:06,070
another holding kids hostage
in a classroom with a gun.
69
00:03:06,150 --> 00:03:07,860
I'm aware of
what happened at the school.
70
00:03:07,940 --> 00:03:10,620
Of course you are. But after
the fact, Principal Pierce,
71
00:03:10,690 --> 00:03:12,330
because you were not on campus.
72
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,200
Again, I was on a mini
vacation with my family...
73
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,090
In a remote area where there was
very limited means of communication.
74
00:03:18,170 --> 00:03:20,710
Yeah, we get it. But even
days after the attack,
75
00:03:20,790 --> 00:03:22,340
you chose not
to show up to work.
76
00:03:22,350 --> 00:03:26,260
This was just a matter of...
Unfortunate timing.
77
00:03:26,330 --> 00:03:28,180
Very unfortunate,
Principal Pierce.
78
00:03:28,250 --> 00:03:30,940
I'm sure you understand
that something must be done.
79
00:03:31,010 --> 00:03:33,470
- The school will remain closed.
- Excuse me, the school...
80
00:03:33,550 --> 00:03:38,560
Will remain closed until we find
psychological responders for the students,
81
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,730
the school is repaired and the
board is finished deliberating
82
00:03:41,810 --> 00:03:45,780
and has come to a conclusion concerning
disciplinary action with regard to you.
83
00:03:49,980 --> 00:03:51,570
[Agent Odell sighs]
84
00:03:51,650 --> 00:03:52,910
[Agent Odell] Honestly, lady,
that dog don't hunt,
85
00:03:52,980 --> 00:03:54,790
so I'm gonna
ask you to try again.
86
00:03:54,870 --> 00:03:59,120
How did you, of all people,
get access to these pods?
87
00:03:59,130 --> 00:04:01,580
I already told you,
I don't know who it was.
88
00:04:01,660 --> 00:04:03,210
It was an anonymous phone call.
89
00:04:03,290 --> 00:04:06,590
So out of the blue,
someone called you
90
00:04:06,670 --> 00:04:11,510
and asked you to come on down
and claim the pod people?
91
00:04:11,590 --> 00:04:15,060
I've been studying Green Light
for some time and...
92
00:04:15,130 --> 00:04:18,480
I'm not really interested in
what you've been studying now.
93
00:04:18,490 --> 00:04:22,650
I prefer you answer my question.
94
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,950
Excuse me, I would
like to finish my answer.
95
00:04:28,570 --> 00:04:30,660
I've been studying Green Light
for some time now.
96
00:04:30,740 --> 00:04:33,620
And I understand its components
and neurological effects
97
00:04:33,690 --> 00:04:35,740
better than anyone.
98
00:04:35,820 --> 00:04:38,550
What happened to the other scientist
that was managing the pods?
99
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,170
When we arrived,
no one was there.
100
00:04:42,180 --> 00:04:44,510
Just the children in those pods.
101
00:04:44,590 --> 00:04:46,290
So, I guess he went
to the same place
102
00:04:46,370 --> 00:04:50,310
as, um, the surveillance
footage and Agent Proctor.
103
00:04:56,170 --> 00:04:57,260
[sighs]
104
00:04:57,270 --> 00:05:00,770
This is useless.
I'm done here.
105
00:05:00,840 --> 00:05:06,020
You are not allowed to leave town
or talk to anybody about this
106
00:05:06,030 --> 00:05:07,650
until the investigation is over.
107
00:05:07,730 --> 00:05:11,530
And your access
to the pods is finished.
108
00:05:11,610 --> 00:05:14,530
What? Did you
not hear what I said?
109
00:05:14,540 --> 00:05:17,580
I understand Green Light and these
children better than anyone.
110
00:05:22,410 --> 00:05:24,380
You're a liar.
111
00:05:24,460 --> 00:05:26,590
You've been sitting here lying to
me for about an hour and a half.
112
00:05:26,660 --> 00:05:28,380
You know you're lying.
You're not going to admit it.
113
00:05:28,390 --> 00:05:30,130
And I don't like liars.
114
00:05:30,210 --> 00:05:33,170
Not because they lie,
because we all lie,
115
00:05:33,250 --> 00:05:36,220
but because
they make my job harder,
116
00:05:36,230 --> 00:05:39,810
and I have enough
cow manure to deal with
117
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:44,060

make my life more difficult.

00:09:37,460 --> 00:09:39,390
She needs
a therapist to talk to.
175
00:09:40,710 --> 00:09:43,260
What? [Scoffs] A therapist?
176
00:09:43,340 --> 00:09:45,390
Come on, Lynn.
177
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,850
Jennifer's life is a lot more
complicated than the average teenager.
178
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,220
Really? What,
you think I don't know that?
179
00:09:50,300 --> 00:09:53,020
So, is she supposed to talk to her
"therapist" about her powers?
180
00:09:53,100 --> 00:09:54,940
I don't know, Jefferson.
181
00:09:55,010 --> 00:09:57,190
But what I do know is
our baby girl is in there
182
00:09:57,270 --> 00:09:59,360
floating and glowing
in her damn sleep.
183
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,320
What's happening to
this family, it's not normal.
184
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,570
- Yeah, I know...
- No, I know it's normal for you.
185
00:10:03,650 --> 00:10:07,240
The suit, the powers, the insanity
of the vigilante lifestyle.
186
00:10:07,250 --> 00:10:09,160
But this is new
for Jen and Anissa.
187
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,920
There's gonna be consequences.
188
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,660
Yeah, I know about consequences.
189
00:10:13,740 --> 00:10:15,710
You know that
I know about consequences.
190
00:10:15,790 --> 00:10:17,040
Tobias brought the consequence...
191
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,920
Jeff, this is not about Tobias.
192
00:10:18,930 --> 00:10:20,890
It's not even about your father.
It's about our children.
193
00:10:29,270 --> 00:10:30,270
[sighs]
194
00:10:35,260 --> 00:10:36,780
How did it go
with the school board?
195
00:10:36,860 --> 00:10:38,160
Did they believe you
about the vacation?
196
00:10:39,450 --> 00:10:42,790
Uh... No. [Scoffs]
197
00:10:42,860 --> 00:10:44,950
But it went just like
it always does.
198
00:10:45,030 --> 00:10:48,070
They threaten me in
some shape, form or fashion,
199
00:10:48,150 --> 00:10:50,630
slap me around
until they feel satisfied.
200
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:52,870
And then, when
they think I've heard them,
201
00:10:52,950 --> 00:10:54,960
we come to
some sort of compromise.
202
00:10:55,030 --> 00:10:58,420
Well, we'll figure it out.
Yeah. What about you?
203
00:10:58,490 --> 00:10:59,880
How did things go with the ASA?
204
00:10:59,950 --> 00:11:01,640
[sighs]
205
00:11:01,710 --> 00:11:04,020
Well, Agent Odell could tell
that I was not being honest.
206
00:11:06,250 --> 00:11:09,310
He told me to stay away
from the pods.
207
00:11:09,390 --> 00:11:10,810
Yeah, I think
that's a good idea.
208
00:11:12,510 --> 00:11:15,150
What? Why would
you say that to me?
209
00:11:15,230 --> 00:11:16,770
You know how much time
I've put into this.
210
00:11:16,850 --> 00:11:18,400
Lynn, your work is in a lab.
211
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,230
Hey, you don't get to say
where my work is, Jefferson.
212
00:11:21,310 --> 00:11:24,740
You know what?
Never mind. [Scoffs]
213
00:11:24,810 --> 00:11:27,080
We're not seeing eye-to-eye
on anything right now.
214
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:29,460
[sighs]
215
00:11:36,490 --> 00:11:37,970
- [door opens]
- [bell jingles]
216
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:44,510
Can I help you?
217
00:11:47,330 --> 00:11:50,300
You put a lot of children
into the program.
218
00:11:50,380 --> 00:11:52,510
[chuckles nervously]
I'm sorry?
219
00:11:52,590 --> 00:11:54,980
I know you were the spotter for the
ASA original Freeland operation.
220
00:11:57,550 --> 00:11:58,360
[exhales]
221
00:12:00,510 --> 00:12:04,490
Peter Esposito,
the untouchable tailor.
222
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,030
Who are you
and what do you want?
223
00:12:11,110 --> 00:12:14,490
I'm a fellow spotter
who's out in the cold.
224
00:12:14,570 --> 00:12:17,710
I have no resources. You're
the only person I can go to.
225
00:12:17,780 --> 00:12:21,290
- And why would I help you?
- I know who has the briefcase.
226
00:12:21,370 --> 00:12:24,380
I'll get it.
When I do, it's yours.
227
00:12:24,460 --> 00:12:28,180
But I need out of the ASA and
safe passage out of the life.
228
00:12:30,540 --> 00:12:32,690
What's in the briefcase
that makes it so valuable?
229
00:12:35,220 --> 00:12:36,230
[scoffs]
230
00:12:41,260 --> 00:12:43,190
I didn't know
it was a rogue operation.
231
00:12:43,270 --> 00:12:46,780
Does it really matter?
Now, what's in the briefcase?
232
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,370
Hell.
233
00:12:53,650 --> 00:12:55,240
[Napier] I'm gonna be honest.
234
00:12:55,250 --> 00:12:57,200
I don't think you're taking
this situation seriously.
235
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,010
Oh, I'm taking it
very seriously.
236
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:03,090
Then act like it. Stop being
so damn stubborn and arrogant.
237
00:13:03,170 --> 00:13:05,430
- Oh, so I'm arrogant now?
- Negro, please.
238
00:13:05,510 --> 00:13:07,710
Is that really up for debate?
239
00:13:07,790 --> 00:13:11,380
The board has always thought that
your inability to listen to anything
240
00:13:11,460 --> 00:13:13,100
about enhancing
the school's security,
241
00:13:13,180 --> 00:13:15,550
especially after your girls
were snatched out of it,
242
00:13:15,630 --> 00:13:20,140
was the height
of "I'm the HNIC" mentality.
243
00:13:20,220 --> 00:13:23,060
A mentality that left the school
vulnerable to exactly what happened.
244
00:13:23,140 --> 00:13:24,610
Oh, really?
245
00:13:24,690 --> 00:13:27,230
- Do you feel that way?
- Yes.
246
00:13:27,310 --> 00:13:30,030
Jefferson, we have been
friends since the Olympics,
247
00:13:30,100 --> 00:13:32,740
but on this thing, you're
putting me in a position
248
00:13:32,820 --> 00:13:36,660
to have to explain to these white
folks all things African-American,
249
00:13:36,740 --> 00:13:39,750
- including your black ass.
- Oh.
250
00:13:39,820 --> 00:13:42,620
So you're their, uh...
Their blackspert now?
251
00:13:42,700 --> 00:13:45,420
Watch yourself, brother. I don't
like the way you said that.
252
00:13:45,490 --> 00:13:47,550
Too damn close
to calling me a house nigger.
253
00:13:47,620 --> 00:13:50,840
Come on, Napier,
you were born in Freeland.
254
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,970
We come from the same place.
255
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,430
And you know that the board has
been trying to take over Garfield
256
00:13:55,500 --> 00:13:58,560
simply because I will not treat
these kids like criminals.
257
00:13:58,570 --> 00:13:59,930
Oh, they have money, right?
258
00:14:00,010 --> 00:14:02,480
They have money
for metal detectors.
259
00:14:02,490 --> 00:14:05,030
They have money for...
for guards with guns,
260
00:14:05,110 --> 00:14:07,650
but they never seem to have
money for books, though.
261
00:14:07,660 --> 00:14:10,230
Teachers' raises
or core computers.
262
00:14:10,310 --> 00:14:14,410
When I'm sitting on that board,
my only concern is the students,
263
00:14:14,490 --> 00:14:15,790
not you, Jefferson.
264
00:14:16,980 --> 00:14:18,660
But we're blessed.
265
00:14:18,670 --> 00:14:21,790
Who knows how much worse
the situation would have been
266
00:14:21,860 --> 00:14:24,960
if Black Lightning and Thunder
hadn't shown up.
267
00:14:25,030 --> 00:14:27,300
Like them, I'm trying
to save the school...
268
00:14:28,660 --> 00:14:29,600
Not your job.
269
00:14:34,170 --> 00:14:35,970
[sighs]
270
00:14:36,050 --> 00:14:38,550
We've taken a look
at the government's response
271
00:14:38,630 --> 00:14:43,980
to our request that they release or
allow you to see your loved ones.
272
00:14:44,050 --> 00:14:47,150
Their position is that
this is a public health issue,
273
00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:52,230
and in the interest of public safety
and the safety of your loved ones,
274
00:14:52,310 --> 00:14:57,200
there will be no access granted to your
family members who are still in the pods,
275
00:14:57,210 --> 00:14:59,030
until further notice.
276
00:14:59,110 --> 00:15:02,580
Basically, their position is
they own your family members.
277
00:15:02,660 --> 00:15:05,080
- What the hell you mean, "own"?
- [woman] Really?
278
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,460
So we're going to have
to sue the government
279
00:15:07,530 --> 00:15:09,550
for the return
of your loved ones.
280
00:15:09,630 --> 00:15:13,340
And I'll be honest with you, it's
gonna be a costly legal battle,
281
00:15:13,420 --> 00:15:15,670
but we have to be
willing to sacrifice
282
00:15:15,750 --> 00:15:17,600
- for our children.
- Yes.
283
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:22,060
Reverend Holt, as Dr. King said,
"We all have a role to play
284
00:15:22,140 --> 00:15:24,520
in the struggle for
the liberation of our people.
285
00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:26,190
- Each and every one of us."
- [man] That's right.
286
00:15:26,260 --> 00:15:27,610
[applauding]
287
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,120
God bless you, brother.
288
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,740
And I would personally
like to thank Benjamin Crump
289
00:15:36,750 --> 00:15:40,320
for his service
to our community.
290
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:47,830
Well, uh... We are doing everything
we can here at this church to
291
00:15:47,910 --> 00:15:51,540
put together a plan to try
to give financial assistance
292
00:15:51,620 --> 00:15:54,800
to anyone or everyone
who needs it.
293
00:15:54,870 --> 00:15:58,300
- Well, how much money do we need to raise?
- Right.
294
00:15:58,380 --> 00:16:00,730
Considering we have
a lot of families to help,
295
00:16:02,420 --> 00:16:05,810
we need to raise
well over $500,000.
296
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,520
- Wow.
- [all gasp and murmur]
297
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,660
Like I said,
we're doing everything we can.
298
00:16:12,850 --> 00:16:15,030
[Anissa] The government
owns them? That's crazy!
299
00:16:15,100 --> 00:16:17,700
- We have to help those people.
- We already have.
300
00:16:17,770 --> 00:16:19,910
We exposed
the Green Light experiments,
301
00:16:19,980 --> 00:16:21,790
got the pods into
the hands of the authorities.
302
00:16:21,870 --> 00:16:25,080
Now it's time to let the
justice system run its course.
303
00:16:25,150 --> 00:16:27,800
Oh, Dad, come on, now.
The system?
304
00:16:27,870 --> 00:16:30,580
The system is rigged. You
know that better than anyone.
305
00:16:30,660 --> 00:16:34,300
Okay, look. Black Lightning and Thunder
will always fight for justice,
306
00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:36,130
but as unfair as the system is,
307
00:16:36,140 --> 00:16:38,590
some issues need to be
resolved within the system
308
00:16:38,670 --> 00:16:40,140
to bring about permanent change.
309
00:16:40,220 --> 00:16:41,590
Okay, so if Jennifer and I
were in those pods,
310
00:16:41,670 --> 00:16:43,150
- would you be saying that?
- [sighs]
311
00:16:43,220 --> 00:16:44,810
Those people are never
gonna have enough money
312
00:16:44,820 --> 00:16:46,100
to sue the government
for custody.
313
00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:47,820
Okay. Anissa, listen to me.
314
00:16:47,890 --> 00:16:50,730
I despise the fact that
those kids are in those pods.
315
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,350
I could easily be in one.
316
00:16:52,370 --> 00:16:56,570
But Tobias, Khalil, Syonide
are still out there.
317
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,990
The attack on Garfield was just
a trap meant for me, for us.
318
00:17:01,070 --> 00:17:04,280
They're gonna keep coming
again and again and again.
319
00:17:04,360 --> 00:17:06,580
They will not stop
until they get what they want.
320
00:17:06,650 --> 00:17:11,290
So we need to be focused on finding them
or being ready for when they find us.
321
00:17:11,300 --> 00:17:17,050
Anissa, look. We have done all
that we can for those children,
322
00:17:17,120 --> 00:17:23,680
but our job right now is to facilitate
the demise of Tobias Whale.
323
00:17:23,690 --> 00:17:26,110
It's time to walk away. Okay?
324
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:28,860
I'll see you at the house.
325
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:37,690
Jen, you can't ignore this in the
hope that it's gonna go away.
326
00:17:37,770 --> 00:17:38,740
- [remote clicks]
- [Jennifer clears throat]
327
00:17:40,150 --> 00:17:42,610
- Give me that.
- [remote clicks]
328
00:17:42,690 --> 00:17:45,370
Look. I know
this has been a lot,
329
00:17:45,450 --> 00:17:47,280
finding out about
your dad and Anissa.
330
00:17:47,360 --> 00:17:49,120
And discovering you have powers
331
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,460
must be mind-blowing
on so many levels.
332
00:17:51,530 --> 00:17:53,960
But you can't isolate yourself
and not talk about...
333
00:17:54,030 --> 00:17:56,000
What do you want me to say?
334
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,130
That you're gonna commit to finding
a way of dealing with this.
335
00:17:58,210 --> 00:18:01,050
Dealing with what? The fact
that I float in my sleep?
336
00:18:01,130 --> 00:18:03,630
Or that Dad died... Twice?
337
00:18:03,710 --> 00:18:06,510
Are you dealing with the fact that
you shot someone with a shotgun,
338
00:18:06,590 --> 00:18:08,390
or that Gambi killed a man,
339
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,020
or that I electrocuted somebody
who might be dead now?
340
00:18:10,090 --> 00:18:12,350
Which part do you want me
to deal with first, Mom?
341
00:18:12,430 --> 00:18:14,100
Watch your tone,
young lady! Jen!
342
00:18:14,180 --> 00:18:16,230
[Jennifer grunts]
343
00:18:16,310 --> 00:18:17,870
- [flesh searing]
- [crying in pain]
344
00:18:20,980 --> 00:18:22,750
Mom, are you okay?
345
00:18:22,820 --> 00:18:25,620
- Are you okay? I'm sorry.
- [gasps, whispers]
346
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,120
[Lynn] Jen. Jen!
347
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,130
[winces, panting]
348
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,430
[sniffling]
349
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:48,730
Jen.
350
00:18:50,970 --> 00:18:52,070
It's okay.
351
00:18:56,110 --> 00:18:57,980
We'll figure it out, okay?
I promise.
352
00:18:58,060 --> 00:18:59,070
[sniffles]
353
00:19:01,810 --> 00:19:03,700
It's okay. I'm okay.
354
00:19:07,790 --> 00:19:10,460
It's like our daughter has a disease.
[inhales sharply]
355
00:19:10,540 --> 00:19:13,790
Well, first it was a drug,
now it's a disease.
356
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,470
I'm just saying that
you have a suit and powers,
357
00:19:16,540 --> 00:19:19,260
I have years of experience
as a doctor and a researcher
358
00:19:19,340 --> 00:19:20,470
and we're helpless.
359
00:19:24,810 --> 00:19:27,390
I went to Gambi and I asked him
to pull some strings at the ASA
360
00:19:27,460 --> 00:19:28,770
to put me in charge of the pods.
361
00:19:34,850 --> 00:19:37,940
- What are you doing, Lynn?
- I'm doing what you do.
362
00:19:38,020 --> 00:19:40,770
I'm using my gifts to help
Freeland, help those children.
363
00:19:40,850 --> 00:19:42,780
Look, we already
talked about this.
364
00:19:42,850 --> 00:19:45,070
You've seen how duplicitous and
dangerous those people can be.
365
00:19:45,150 --> 00:19:46,910
Yes, unfortunately, I have.
366
00:19:46,980 --> 00:19:48,670
I just can't believe you.
367
00:19:48,740 --> 00:19:50,700
You went and talked to Gambi
without coming to me first.
368
00:19:50,780 --> 00:19:53,550
I don't need your permission to
talk to anyone. I'm not a child.
369
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,290
If you were
so concerned about me,
370
00:19:58,370 --> 00:20:00,130
why haven't you
mentioned even once
371
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,170
that I killed a man
and how I felt about it?
372
00:20:03,180 --> 00:20:07,010
But you have a problem with me going
to Gambi and helping those children?
373
00:20:07,090 --> 00:20:10,640
What, do I need powers,
a fancy suit, a funny name
374
00:20:10,710 --> 00:20:12,560
for you to understand
what I'm trying to do?
375
00:20:12,630 --> 00:20:14,850
Seeing what just happened
to Jennifer down there
376
00:20:14,860 --> 00:20:18,150
makes me positive
I made the right choice.
377
00:20:21,060 --> 00:20:23,030
This thing is tearing us apart.
378
00:20:25,020 --> 00:20:26,870
I told you
there would be consequences.
379
00:20:30,820 --> 00:20:32,170
I'm gonna take a drive.
380
00:20:38,550 --> 00:20:40,210
- Are you kidding me?
- I don't know.
381
00:20:40,290 --> 00:20:42,220

Deputy Chief Henderson.
397
00:23:00,360 --> 00:23:04,530
I asked myself,
now what could possibly keep
398
00:23:04,610 --> 00:23:10,410
Jefferson Pierce away from Garfield
High after it was attacked?
399
00:23:11,900 --> 00:23:13,780
Nothing.
400
00:23:13,860 --> 00:23:17,950
'Cause Jefferson Pierce
was already there.
401
00:23:18,030 --> 00:23:22,830
United States government sending
down national security orders.
402

[scoffs] Black Lightning
rising from the dead,
403
00:23:26,370 --> 00:23:28,050
showing up at the Seahorse Motel
404
00:23:28,130 --> 00:23:31,810
only to save
Jefferson Pierce's daughters.
405
00:23:38,420 --> 00:23:39,730
Just say it, negro.
406
00:23:43,300 --> 00:23:46,200
Don't make me rip that mask off your face.
You say it.
407
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,530
You gonna shoot me now,
Deputy Chief?
408
00:23:51,940 --> 00:23:53,040
I should.
409
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,250
[sighs]
410
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,850
[powers down]
411
00:24:32,940 --> 00:24:34,080
Is Lynn Thunder?
412
00:24:35,650 --> 00:24:36,530
No.
413
00:24:36,610 --> 00:24:38,200
Oh.
414
00:24:38,270 --> 00:24:39,420
Anissa?
415
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:42,000
Hmm?
416
00:24:44,490 --> 00:24:46,800
Come on, man!
I asked you a question.
417
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:51,180
[sighs]
418
00:24:52,330 --> 00:24:53,600
Yes.
419
00:24:58,340 --> 00:25:00,520
After all these years, huh, man?
420
00:25:05,150 --> 00:25:06,980
[scoffs]
421
00:25:06,990 --> 00:25:10,360
Okay, um... What do we do now?
422
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,160
[breathes heavily]
423
00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:22,750
Bill?
424
00:25:28,870 --> 00:25:31,080
You act like
this is something new.
425
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,630
James Marion Sims, the so-called
father of modern gynecology,
426
00:25:34,710 --> 00:25:38,130
experimented on female slaves
without anesthesia.
427
00:25:38,210 --> 00:25:40,930
Well, because of
Black Lightning and Thunder,
428
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,640
people all over the world will
be exposed to the same truth
429
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,940
that people who reside in communities
like Freeland know all too well.
430
00:25:49,010 --> 00:25:54,150
And that is, the government has
used poor communities, poor people
431
00:25:54,230 --> 00:25:57,650
as guinea pigs for
all kinds of experimentation.
432
00:25:57,730 --> 00:25:59,610
[newscaster] The problem is,
government officials
433
00:25:59,690 --> 00:26:01,780
have always looked down
on this town.
434
00:26:01,860 --> 00:26:04,330
Ever since they started using
these people for experiments,
435
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,080
they don't even see them
as people. Just...
436
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:08,170
You came back.
437
00:26:10,740 --> 00:26:12,050
I went back to my place...
438
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,710
and figured there was
no better place to be.
439
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,220
[woman on TV]
He was a good kid. A good kid!
440
00:26:19,300 --> 00:26:21,440
- Ain't never done nothin' to no one.
- [chuckles]
441
00:26:26,590 --> 00:26:28,860
- [indistinct talking on TV]
- [Jefferson] Another kid.
442
00:26:31,410 --> 00:26:32,570
This one shot.
443
00:26:34,150 --> 00:26:37,700
That's one of the reasons
why I went to Gambi.
444
00:26:37,780 --> 00:26:40,040
Stop all this madness
on the streets of Freeland.
445
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,830
I'm going to help
those children, Jefferson.
446
00:26:45,090 --> 00:26:46,420
I don't need your support,
447
00:26:46,500 --> 00:26:48,050
but it would be nice to have it.
448
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,300
[Jefferson sighs]
449
00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:01,340
All this negative news,
on metas,
450
00:27:01,420 --> 00:27:04,720
Freeland is gonna start
turning on folks with powers.
451
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,680
That is the future, Lynn,
for Jen and Anissa.
452
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,220
Eventually, they will be hunted.
453
00:27:09,300 --> 00:27:11,280
If not by the police,
then by the ASA...
454
00:27:11,350 --> 00:27:13,740
Hey. We're gonna
get through this,
455
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,740
with our family intact.
456
00:27:20,980 --> 00:27:22,870
Oh, breaking news...
457
00:27:24,870 --> 00:27:25,790
Henderson knows.
458
00:27:27,150 --> 00:27:27,920
What?
459
00:27:29,150 --> 00:27:32,210
Oh, my God. How?
460
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,680
He's a smart man.
Too many clues.
461
00:27:37,380 --> 00:27:38,590
[sighs]
462
00:27:38,660 --> 00:27:39,890
Wow.
463
00:27:39,970 --> 00:27:42,090
I mean, I could
have denied it all
464
00:27:42,170 --> 00:27:45,640
and come up with a bunch
of reasons why it wasn't true,
465
00:27:45,710 --> 00:27:50,440
but honestly, I was just too
tired to lie to him anymore.
466
00:27:53,150 --> 00:27:55,950
He's a good man
and a good friend.
467
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,070
Might be someone
good to talk to.
468
00:27:59,140 --> 00:28:01,200
I don't know if he'd ever want
to talk to me again.
469
00:28:03,900 --> 00:28:06,830
Anyone who knows who Black Lightning
is winds up getting hurt.
470
00:28:06,910 --> 00:28:09,920
Physically, emotionally.
471
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,410
[chuckles]
Now I have him to worry about.
472
00:28:13,490 --> 00:28:16,170
Yeah, I know we talked about
Jennifer seeing a therapist.
473
00:28:16,180 --> 00:28:19,430
But maybe
you should see one, too.
474
00:28:22,670 --> 00:28:24,350
You think I'm crazy?
475
00:28:24,430 --> 00:28:26,480
Well, I know you're crazy.
476
00:28:26,550 --> 00:28:30,310
[chuckles] I just... I think you've
been through a lot of stuff.
477
00:28:30,380 --> 00:28:32,520
Not just in the last few
months, but over the years.
478
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,940
Fighting for Freeland,
and Garfield and...
479
00:28:36,010 --> 00:28:39,530
You're a man of a certain age.
480
00:28:39,610 --> 00:28:42,490
- [chuckles] - And a lot of
guys lose their ability
481
00:28:42,570 --> 00:28:46,820
to get an erection
when they're stressed, so...
482
00:28:46,900 --> 00:28:49,820
Maybe it wasn't the suit that caused
your powers to short-circuit.
483
00:28:49,900 --> 00:28:53,920
Maybe it was Black Lightning's
version of erectile dysfunction.
484
00:28:57,740 --> 00:29:01,630
- Gah. Woman, ain't nothin'
dysfunctional about me. -[Laughing]
485
00:29:01,710 --> 00:29:04,130
- Really?
- Oh, really, yeah.
486
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,760
You know, um...
[clears throat]
487
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,060
[remote clicks]
488
00:29:11,140 --> 00:29:14,680
I am cool testing out
your theory.
489
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,350
I bet you are.
490
00:29:16,430 --> 00:29:18,690
- Dr. Lynn Stewart.
- [chuckling]
491
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,360
See, I have an idea
492
00:29:21,430 --> 00:29:24,690
about how you can
help me with my stress.
493
00:29:24,770 --> 00:29:26,790
- Aw! [Laughing]
- Yeah.
494
00:29:58,090 --> 00:29:59,400
[sighs deeply]
495
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:04,660
[beeps]
496
00:30:07,450 --> 00:30:08,950
What? It's Kara.
497
00:30:09,030 --> 00:30:11,110
She was Proctor's spotter.
498
00:30:11,190 --> 00:30:14,160
I knew I recognized the face, but
I couldn't figure out from where.
499
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,130
She came to see me,
offered up Proctor's briefcase
500
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,090
in return for me cleansing her
from the ASA.
501
00:30:36,980 --> 00:30:38,780
This is completely...
502
00:30:40,970 --> 00:30:42,280
I mean...
503
00:30:43,470 --> 00:30:44,780
[sighs]
504
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,120
Okay.
505
00:30:48,850 --> 00:30:50,740
[breathes deeply]
506
00:30:50,810 --> 00:30:54,280
Does she know who has it?
What's in the briefcase?
507
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,200
Probably. She's not saying.
508
00:30:56,210 --> 00:31:00,050
But whatever it is, it's
probably worse than we think.
509
00:31:01,340 --> 00:31:02,470
You think she can get it?
510
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:04,720
We'll see.
511
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,470
- [sighs] Yeah. Any word on Tobias?
- Still off the grid.
512
00:31:10,540 --> 00:31:14,650
I'm keeping tabs on Khalil's mom's place.
I think he's the wild card.
513
00:31:19,180 --> 00:31:21,480
- [Kiesha laughing] No, girl, I'm serious.
I'm serious. -[Jennifer chuckles]
514
00:31:21,550 --> 00:31:22,940
He got me all up in my feelings.
515
00:31:23,010 --> 00:31:24,770
I don't even really
like him like that.
516
00:31:24,850 --> 00:31:26,820
Honestly, it's just... It's
the thought of him thinking
517
00:31:26,890 --> 00:31:28,190
he gonna break up with me,
you know?
518
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,030
I already told you
you too good for him.
519
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:31,610
- I've been telling you that.
- I know.
520
00:31:31,690 --> 00:31:33,040
- [Kiesha chuckles]
- [cell phone chimes]
521
00:31:36,230 --> 00:31:38,200
Dudes have no kind of shame.
522
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,000
Ain't he got better things to do
with the police looking for him?
523
00:31:41,070 --> 00:31:42,840
Yeah. Yeah, you would think.
524
00:31:43,910 --> 00:31:46,080
Girl, listen.
525
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,670
[Khalil] You were right, J. That
stuff at Garfield, that wasn't me.
526
00:31:48,750 --> 00:31:52,300
Look, if you could please just
give me a chance to explain...
527
00:31:52,380 --> 00:31:54,590
[Kiesha] Oh, um, boy, bye.
528
00:31:54,670 --> 00:31:56,510
I mean, did you tell the police
that he's harassing you?
529
00:31:56,590 --> 00:31:58,390
No. I already have enough drama
in my life with my parents.
530
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,010
I don't need more.
531
00:32:00,090 --> 00:32:01,480
Yeah, I feel that.
532
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,570
The police gonna catch
his ass eventually.
533
00:32:03,650 --> 00:32:05,940
I just keep his messages to remind
myself not to talk to him again.
534
00:32:06,010 --> 00:32:08,240
Well, all these
Green Light babies
535
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,190
walking around
with powers and whatnot...
536
00:32:10,270 --> 00:32:12,410
I mean, it's like
the end of days.
537
00:32:12,490 --> 00:32:14,030
All of them, they gonna end up like
that boy that the police choked out.
538
00:32:14,110 --> 00:32:16,530
And Neema's still missing,
and all those other kids
539
00:32:16,610 --> 00:32:19,960
from back in the day that were
experimented on, they're all freaks.
540
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,050
End of days, girl.
I'm telling you.
541
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,210
Yeah. Put your head back.
542
00:32:28,290 --> 00:32:32,210
So we, um, talking here
about consequences.
543
00:32:32,290 --> 00:32:35,720
Everything that you do
has a consequence.
544
00:32:35,790 --> 00:32:41,310
So we're here in Romans chapter
three, verse 21 and 22,
545
00:32:41,380 --> 00:32:43,560
and let's see
what God has to say.
546
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:49,200
"But now the righteousness of God,
without the law is manifested,
547
00:32:50,690 --> 00:32:51,580
- being..."
- [door opens]
548

- [guns cocking]
- [all gasp]
549
00:33:02,570 --> 00:33:04,120
Whoa, you won't be needing that.
550
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:05,840
God willing, we won't.
551
00:33:12,050 --> 00:33:13,010
[all gasp]
552
00:33:32,900 --> 00:33:35,620
Praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
553
00:33:37,670 --> 00:33:40,170
[Issa's mother sobbing]
Jesus! You see this?
554
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,200
Jesus, do you see this?
555
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,210
They won't even let me
bury my baby right.
556
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:46,620
- [muffled grunting]
- [man] What the...
557
00:33:46,700 --> 00:33:47,830
Stop.
558
00:33:47,910 --> 00:33:49,290
[all gasping]
559
00:33:49,370 --> 00:33:50,290
Oh, my God.
560
00:33:50,370 --> 00:33:51,970
[grunting]
561
00:33:53,460 --> 00:33:54,310
No...
562
00:33:55,380 --> 00:33:56,560
[gasping]
563
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,510
Issa? Wait.
564
00:33:58,590 --> 00:34:00,300
[women whimpering]
565
00:34:00,380 --> 00:34:02,270
Stay... Stay away! Stay away!
566
00:34:02,350 --> 00:34:05,140
This can't be real.
Jesus, this can't be real.
567
00:34:05,220 --> 00:34:09,190
Jesus, what is this?
Show me the way.
568
00:34:09,260 --> 00:34:12,190
[gasping] No, you... I don't
want anything to do with you.
569
00:34:12,270 --> 00:34:13,610
- What are you talking about?
- Nothing.
570
00:34:13,690 --> 00:34:16,650
No. You can't be my baby.
My baby is dead.
571
00:34:16,730 --> 00:34:20,870
No, I was relieved when you died.
I was happy to bury you.
572
00:34:20,950 --> 00:34:24,830
I was happy not to be worried about you
on these streets doing Green Light.
573
00:34:24,910 --> 00:34:26,450
No, I was happy.
574
00:34:26,530 --> 00:34:28,160
Mom!
575
00:34:28,240 --> 00:34:29,010
[stammers]
576
00:34:31,330 --> 00:34:34,170
[faint crackling]
577
00:34:34,250 --> 00:34:37,670
I'm sorry.
[stammers] I was confused.
578
00:34:37,750 --> 00:34:40,430
I didn't mean
to say these words.
579
00:34:40,500 --> 00:34:41,850
- Get on the ground.
- [Issa's mother] No, wait.
580
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,760
Run. Issa, run!
581
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:46,390
- No, wait. No!
- [man] Stop!
582
00:34:46,470 --> 00:34:47,600
- [Issa's mother] No!
- [gunshots]
583
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,350
[Jennifer laughs]
It's so funny.
584
00:34:49,430 --> 00:34:52,360
[chuckles] Wait. Look at her.
585
00:34:52,430 --> 00:34:55,190
- She's so crazy, I'm dying.
- [laughing]
586
00:34:55,270 --> 00:34:56,860
She is crazy.
I love it, though.
587
00:34:56,940 --> 00:34:58,040
Oh, my God.
588
00:34:59,230 --> 00:35:01,080
This one's funny, too.
589
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:02,080
Oh, hell, no.
590
00:35:02,990 --> 00:35:05,040
- What?
- Look!
591
00:35:05,110 --> 00:35:08,370
So now they jumping out of body
bags and coming back from the dead?
592
00:35:08,380 --> 00:35:09,710
Oh, my God.
593
00:35:09,720 --> 00:35:12,040
I'm telling you, girl,
end of days.
594
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,210
Look. Look at him. All these
Green Light babies are freaks.
595
00:35:15,290 --> 00:35:17,710
That is ridiculous. You...
596
00:35:17,790 --> 00:35:18,720
J!
597
00:35:21,270 --> 00:35:23,930
- J, what's up?
- [gasping]
598
00:35:23,940 --> 00:35:25,890
Jennifer, what is it?
What's wrong?
599
00:35:25,970 --> 00:35:27,970
Hey, come on, Jennifer, you're scaring me.
Open the door.
600
00:35:28,050 --> 00:35:30,020
Come on, Jennifer, open the door.
You're scaring me.
601
00:35:30,100 --> 00:35:32,020
Kiesha, go home, okay?
602
00:35:32,100 --> 00:35:34,900
- [doorknob rattling] - Jen, what's up?
Talk to me. Jennifer!
603
00:35:34,980 --> 00:35:36,440
Kiesha, go home!

[faint crackling]
605
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,370
I don't give a rat's ass
who pulled strings for you,
606
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:47,120
but I guaran-damn-tee you
I will find out.
607
00:35:47,130 --> 00:35:50,760
Cut those strings and you are
gonna fall hard, lady.
608
00:35:50,830 --> 00:35:52,130
It's Dr. Stewart.
609
00:35:52,210 --> 00:35:54,710
Oh. Supposed to impress me?
610
00:35:54,790 --> 00:35:58,460
Like you said, I don't give a rat's
ass if it does or it doesn't.
611
00:35:58,540 --> 00:36:02,140
Like crack, this community will
have to deal with the consequences
612
00:36:02,220 --> 00:36:04,760
of the government experimenting
on them for generations to come.
613
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,860
I just want to give them the
answers and the tools to do that.
614

[chuckling]
615
00:36:14,180 --> 00:36:16,780
I'm gonna find out what's really
going on with you, Doctor.
616
00:36:18,740 --> 00:36:19,700
I will.

[exhales shakily]
618
00:36:33,990 --> 00:36:36,710
- Where is she?
- She's in the bathroom.
619
00:36:36,720 --> 00:36:39,810
Jeff, I've never seen
anything like this before.
620
00:36:41,430 --> 00:36:43,560
Okay. Okay. Okay.
621
00:36:44,710 --> 00:36:46,300
Jen?
622
00:36:46,310 --> 00:36:48,150
[faint humming and crackling]
623
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:05,500
Baby, are you in pain?
624
00:37:07,030 --> 00:37:08,830
No.
625
00:37:08,900 --> 00:37:10,750
I just can't stop it.
626
00:37:14,370 --> 00:37:16,830
[exhales deeply]
627
00:37:16,910 --> 00:37:18,340
Okay, I need you to
get out of the tub.
628
00:37:21,130 --> 00:37:22,510
No, I... I got you.
629
00:37:25,710 --> 00:37:26,690

[Napier] Jefferson,
did you hear me?
635
00:38:09,590 --> 00:38:14,240
I said they voted
to close Garfield permanently.
636
00:38:16,970 --> 00:38:17,910
Yeah, I heard you.
637
00:38:20,980 --> 00:38:22,330
I'll step down as principal.
638
00:38:24,290 --> 00:38:25,540
[Napier sighs]
639
00:38:29,130 --> 00:38:32,590
[stutters] It'll give
the board a win.
640
00:38:35,540 --> 00:38:41,130
They can hire whoever they feel
comfortable with to run Garfield
641
00:38:41,210 --> 00:38:45,220
and it'll look like
they've taken decisive action.
642
00:38:45,290 --> 00:38:46,980
And, uh, the media...
643
00:38:48,250 --> 00:38:49,190
[chuckles dryly]
644
00:38:50,720 --> 00:38:55,890
The media will eat it...
and me up.
645
00:38:55,970 --> 00:39:00,240
You sure? Do you want me
to take that back to them?
646
00:39:04,020 --> 00:39:05,450
You said it best, Napier.
