1
00:00:26,359 --> 00:00:28,570
Who left him unattended?
Oh my God.

2
00:00:33,366 --> 00:00:34,325
Check his pulse.

3
00:00:37,370 --> 00:00:39,581
-Weak, but alive.
-We need to get him to the medical unit.

4
00:00:39,664 --> 00:00:41,374
-Get the gurney.
-I'm on it.

5
00:00:57,474 --> 00:01:00,060
-Pulse is fading. We're losing him.
-Let's go, let's go!

6
00:01:00,143 --> 00:01:04,647
Fast car ready at the ESS.
I'm gonna need Chem 8, Utox, UA, LFTs!

7
00:02:43,830 --> 00:02:46,416
-Wake up, Bug.
-Mm-mm.

8
00:02:46,499 --> 00:02:49,294
-Big day today.
-No, it's not.

9
00:02:49,377 --> 00:02:51,713
Yes, it is. Wake up.

10
00:02:54,549 --> 00:02:56,384
Hey, don't be sad.

11
00:02:57,093 --> 00:02:59,512
I'm sad too, but I'm here now,

12
00:03:00,221 --> 00:03:01,931
and I want today to be special.

13
00:03:05,143 --> 00:03:06,477
I don't.

14
00:03:07,896 --> 00:03:09,606
I don't want today to be anything.

15
00:03:11,816 --> 00:03:13,359
I can't wait to hear you sing.

16
00:03:13,943 --> 00:03:16,779
Kwame told me that you have
a solo in the opening number.

17
00:03:18,615 --> 00:03:19,449
What?

18
00:03:20,033 --> 00:03:21,618
I don't wanna sing that song.

19
00:03:21,701 --> 00:03:24,412
It's called "Steppin' to the Bad Side,"
and I'm a hero.

20
00:03:25,747 --> 00:03:28,458
Yeah, sometimes bad guys step to you.

21
00:03:29,167 --> 00:03:30,418
So you gotta step to them.

22
00:03:32,629 --> 00:03:33,630
Can I just stay with you?

23
00:03:35,340 --> 00:03:36,966
I have to take care
of some things.

24
00:03:37,050 --> 00:03:39,219
-What is more important than--
-Hey, listen.

25
00:03:41,095 --> 00:03:44,182
I want to spend every waking moment
I have left with you,

26
00:03:45,683 --> 00:03:51,773
but I gotta put some things
and-and people together for you.

27
00:03:52,607 --> 00:03:53,483
For your future.

28
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:57,403
So that I'll know
you'll never have to go at it alone.

29
00:04:02,784 --> 00:04:06,412
Besides, if you spent
your whole day with me,

30
00:04:06,496 --> 00:04:08,498
how are you gonna
ride your bike to school?

31
00:04:10,333 --> 00:04:11,209
By myself?

32
00:04:11,834 --> 00:04:13,628
By yourself.

33
00:04:13,711 --> 00:04:15,046
I'd say it's about that time.

34
00:05:16,024 --> 00:05:17,817
Did you ride your bike to school today?

35
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,239
-Mm-hm.
-All by yourself?

36
00:05:24,449 --> 00:05:25,867
-Yup.
-This is a big day.

37
00:05:25,950 --> 00:05:27,952
You've been dreaming of this for so long.

38
00:05:28,453 --> 00:05:31,456
-Was it everything you hoped it would be?
-It was cool.

39
00:05:31,956 --> 00:05:34,459
Why aren't you more excited?

40
00:05:34,542 --> 00:05:36,794
I wish I could drive myself to school.

41
00:05:36,878 --> 00:05:39,172
But I have to wait
until I get my driver's license,

42
00:05:39,255 --> 00:05:40,798
and my own tricked out van.

43
00:05:40,882 --> 00:05:42,383
It's gonna be pink, by the way.

44
00:05:45,261 --> 00:05:46,679
What's wrong?

45
00:05:46,763 --> 00:05:49,974
Your mom is finally letting you grow up.
Isn't that what you wanted?

46
00:05:51,559 --> 00:05:53,686
I wouldn't mind
holding off a little bit longer.

47
00:05:56,856 --> 00:05:58,107
Ready for the show tonight?

48
00:05:58,775 --> 00:06:02,070
I'm gonna need you and Jonathan
backstage with me before I go on.

49
00:06:02,653 --> 00:06:04,447
-We'll be there.
-Yes.

50
00:06:11,871 --> 00:06:15,333
We've been able to stabilize him,
but I'm not gonna lie,

51
00:06:15,833 --> 00:06:17,543
we're in uncharted territory here.

52
00:06:18,044 --> 00:06:20,880
-Can he even hear us?
-His EEG is flat.

53
00:06:22,590 --> 00:06:24,425
I don't think he's coming back.

54
00:06:25,635 --> 00:06:26,886
Is he brain-dead?

55
00:06:26,969 --> 00:06:30,807
A coma this deep could mean
that his mind is rebuilding itself,

56
00:06:30,890 --> 00:06:33,184
but that might take a while.

57
00:06:33,267 --> 00:06:35,812
And we have no idea what
that Powered DNA might be doing to him.

58
00:06:35,895 --> 00:06:40,775
True. Yeah. His breathing's erratic.
His heart rate is up and then down.

59
00:06:40,858 --> 00:06:44,153
There's some weird CNS electrical surge.

60
00:06:44,237 --> 00:06:45,988
What's this bottom line here?

61
00:06:46,572 --> 00:06:50,618
In highly scientific terms,
either he's turning into Superman,

62
00:06:50,701 --> 00:06:52,745
or disintegrating from the inside out.

63
00:07:14,475 --> 00:07:18,438
I just don't understand how,
knowing what you know,

64
00:07:18,521 --> 00:07:22,483
you can just sit here eating lunch.

65
00:07:22,567 --> 00:07:24,026
I'm hungry.

66
00:07:24,527 --> 00:07:27,530
-Here you go. Enjoy.

67
00:07:27,613 --> 00:07:28,573
Thank you.

68
00:07:33,744 --> 00:07:36,038
Um, there's something I wanted to ask you.

69
00:07:37,832 --> 00:07:38,666
Um…

70
00:07:39,625 --> 00:07:42,378
-I don't really know what to call it.
-A favor?

71
00:07:44,046 --> 00:07:46,257
Yeah. It's about Dion.

72
00:07:47,383 --> 00:07:50,303
You know they say
it takes a village to raise a child.

73
00:07:51,679 --> 00:07:54,056
So I'm using what time I have left
to build one.

74
00:07:55,016 --> 00:07:58,269
-You want <i>me </i>to raise Dion?
-My sister is gonna do that.

75
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,023
But I would love your help.

76
00:08:03,649 --> 00:08:05,943
BIONA is gonna be
a big part of Dion's life.

77
00:08:06,611 --> 00:08:10,323
That's a good thing. But I…
I don't want him to grow up in a lab.

78
00:08:10,948 --> 00:08:14,911
Or spend all of his free time
with employees of a corporation

79
00:08:14,994 --> 00:08:17,497
that might not always
have his best interests at heart.

80
00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:19,457
I don't want that for Janelle either.

81
00:08:23,252 --> 00:08:25,254
So while you're looking out for Janelle,

82
00:08:26,797 --> 00:08:28,299
can you look out for Dion too?

83
00:08:30,551 --> 00:08:32,678
I know we don't know each other
that well, but…

84
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:35,515
No, no, I get it.

85
00:08:36,182 --> 00:08:38,017
We're part of a very specific club.

86
00:08:40,436 --> 00:08:42,396
You've been a lifesaver for me, Nicole.

87
00:08:43,064 --> 00:08:46,192
You got through to my daughter,
brought her out of her shell,

88
00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:49,362
and for the first time
in I can't tell you how long, I…

89
00:08:49,445 --> 00:08:51,030
kind of think she's gonna be okay.

90
00:08:51,113 --> 00:08:55,201
-Janelle is gonna be unstoppable.
-I owe you so much. So whatever I can do.

91
00:08:56,994 --> 00:08:57,828
Thank you.

92
00:08:59,789 --> 00:09:01,499
But, look, I don't want you
to agree to this

93
00:09:01,582 --> 00:09:03,834
until you understand
the danger that's in it.

94
00:09:03,918 --> 00:09:05,127
Dion's not violent.

95
00:09:05,211 --> 00:09:07,463
No. Of course not.

96
00:09:09,173 --> 00:09:14,929
But there's a Powered entity
that has targeted Dion,

97
00:09:15,513 --> 00:09:17,515
and it's killed a lot of Powered people.

98
00:09:17,598 --> 00:09:19,600
But it hasn't been able to hurt him, and

99
00:09:20,685 --> 00:09:22,436
I think it sees him as a threat.

100
00:09:24,605 --> 00:09:25,439
To what?

101
00:09:25,523 --> 00:09:27,608
Whatever it has planned
for the future.

102
00:09:28,192 --> 00:09:29,360
Why Dion?

103
00:09:29,443 --> 00:09:31,946
Because I think
Dion has what it takes to destroy it.

104
00:09:34,865 --> 00:09:37,535
He's the only one
that's fought it and lived.

105
00:09:38,494 --> 00:09:43,124
But he's just a kid.
He needs time to develop his powers.

106
00:09:46,335 --> 00:09:50,840
Every Powered person is at risk
as long as that thing is out there.

107
00:09:53,926 --> 00:09:55,636
You just need to keep Dion safe

108
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,848
so that he can grow up
and destroy it for good.

109
00:10:01,851 --> 00:10:04,895
Wow. Uh, that was… a lot.

110
00:10:04,979 --> 00:10:06,939
Um, just tell me you'll think about it.

111
00:10:09,066 --> 00:10:09,984
Of course.

112
00:10:11,068 --> 00:10:13,404
But don't take too long.

113
00:10:18,367 --> 00:10:20,620
We're coming to Dion's show tonight.

114
00:10:20,703 --> 00:10:22,163
So can we talk then?

115
00:10:24,498 --> 00:10:25,374
Of course we can.

116
00:10:38,638 --> 00:10:40,598
I'm so sorry this is happening to you.

117
00:10:46,812 --> 00:10:49,398
Okay, Janelle. This is boss-level stuff.

118
00:10:51,525 --> 00:10:52,735
Multiple objects,

119
00:10:52,818 --> 00:10:54,695
and for an added level of difficulty,

120
00:10:55,738 --> 00:10:58,574
wildly differing masses
and molecular structures.

121
00:10:59,075 --> 00:11:00,117
Are you up for this?

122
00:11:00,201 --> 00:11:02,203
Bring it.

123
00:11:02,286 --> 00:11:05,039
-I'm ready to dematerialize.
-That's what I like to hear.

124
00:11:15,466 --> 00:11:19,011
-Yes.
-Yes! That's what I'm talking about.

125
00:11:19,595 --> 00:11:22,056
-See?
-I'm so proud of you. Want to go again?

126
00:11:22,139 --> 00:11:23,474
Yeah.

127
00:11:23,557 --> 00:11:25,643
How about we call it early today?

128
00:11:25,726 --> 00:11:28,312
Dion's show is tonight,
so we need to get going.

129
00:11:29,146 --> 00:11:31,315
Uh, yeah, don't wanna be late for that.

130
00:11:32,066 --> 00:11:34,694
Uh, we'll disintegrate some stuff
another time.

131
00:11:34,777 --> 00:11:35,903
Okay.

132
00:11:42,034 --> 00:11:44,286
Janelle, hey.

133
00:11:44,370 --> 00:11:45,204
Hi.

134
00:11:45,287 --> 00:11:46,997
I-I wasn't watching.

135
00:11:47,081 --> 00:11:49,083
N-No, you can watch. It's fine.

136
00:11:49,166 --> 00:11:51,168
Really? I…
I thought you hated that.

137
00:11:51,669 --> 00:11:53,254
That was before.

138
00:11:53,921 --> 00:11:55,798
I just didn't want you
to think I was a freak.

139
00:11:59,176 --> 00:12:01,637
So, of course,
I started acting more like a freak.

140
00:12:03,723 --> 00:12:05,433
Um, here, I just, um…

141
00:12:06,058 --> 00:12:07,977
I just, uh, airdropped you a playlist.

142
00:12:09,186 --> 00:12:10,062
Oh, wow.

143
00:12:12,565 --> 00:12:15,192
I'm sorry. I just really wanted
you to hear this. Um…

144
00:12:16,026 --> 00:12:16,902
I'm in a band.

145
00:12:18,112 --> 00:12:19,363
We're… We're pretty good.

146
00:12:20,281 --> 00:12:23,367
-Aristotle's Backpack.
-Yeah, our-our lyrics are insane.

147
00:12:25,035 --> 00:12:26,370
Anyway, uh, listen.

148
00:12:27,955 --> 00:12:30,249
I don't know if your mom lets you hang out

149
00:12:30,332 --> 00:12:32,918
or if you want to hang out,

150
00:12:33,002 --> 00:12:36,505
but I'd be down
if you would want to, you know, uh--

151
00:12:36,589 --> 00:12:37,590
Yeah.

152
00:12:37,673 --> 00:12:38,883
-Yeah?
-Yeah.

153
00:12:39,842 --> 00:12:40,885
-Yeah.
-Great.

154
00:12:40,968 --> 00:12:43,512
I'm going to Dion's show tonight,
actually, but I mean--

155
00:12:43,596 --> 00:12:46,432
-Me too.
-Okay, great. Yeah. I'll, um…

156
00:12:47,308 --> 00:12:49,435
-I'll save you a seat?
-Okay.

157
00:12:50,853 --> 00:12:52,104
-Okay.

158
00:12:58,861 --> 00:12:59,695
Huh.

159
00:12:59,779 --> 00:13:01,864
<i>So are you going</i>
<i>to the show tonight?</i>

160
00:13:01,947 --> 00:13:03,491
Mm-hm. Yeah. Wouldn't miss it.

161
00:13:05,284 --> 00:13:06,118
Or Nicole?

162
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,082
It's happening pretty fast, isn't it?

163
00:13:14,710 --> 00:13:15,544
Yeah.

164
00:13:16,462 --> 00:13:17,546
She'll be gone by tomorrow.

165
00:13:19,298 --> 00:13:21,926
Did you talk to her about the village?

166
00:13:22,009 --> 00:13:26,722
Simone, I'm… I'm the mayor
of said village.

167
00:13:27,807 --> 00:13:28,766
Looking to relocate?

168
00:13:31,060 --> 00:13:32,895
It does look like a nice village.

169
00:13:34,146 --> 00:13:35,397
Hey. Let's go, Mom.

170
00:13:37,358 --> 00:13:38,609
I'll see you there.

171
00:13:45,241 --> 00:13:48,160
Mom, my sessions with Tevin
just keep getting better and better.

172
00:13:48,244 --> 00:13:49,870
I have so much more control.

173
00:13:49,954 --> 00:13:51,330
It's like somebody flipped a switch

174
00:13:51,413 --> 00:13:53,624
and suddenly
I'm on the other side of my abilities.

175
00:13:54,124 --> 00:13:56,085
Good. That's good.

176
00:13:56,168 --> 00:13:58,838
It is. And you know what? I had an idea.

177
00:13:58,921 --> 00:14:01,966
You know how Nicole asked me to represent
the Powered on the Advisory Board?

178
00:14:02,466 --> 00:14:03,551
Well, I wanna do more.

179
00:14:04,051 --> 00:14:05,845
I want to mentor Powered kids, like Dion.

180
00:14:05,928 --> 00:14:08,097
I'm sorry. What are you talking about?

181
00:14:08,848 --> 00:14:11,141
Well, the Powered adults,
you know, they're cool,

182
00:14:11,225 --> 00:14:13,352
but kids want to talk
to other kids, you know?

183
00:14:13,435 --> 00:14:15,563
We have our own stuff
that we're dealing with,

184
00:14:15,646 --> 00:14:17,940
and Dion and I, we have a lot in common.

185
00:14:18,023 --> 00:14:20,693
He's an only child and I'm an only child.

186
00:14:20,776 --> 00:14:24,864
I could be like his big sister, you know?
Show him the ropes, scare off the bullies.

187
00:14:24,947 --> 00:14:25,781
No.

188
00:14:26,282 --> 00:14:27,283
No?

189
00:14:27,366 --> 00:14:32,121
You need to worry about yourself first.
You're just getting started with all this.

190
00:14:32,204 --> 00:14:34,373
You don't need to be mentoring anybody.

191
00:14:34,456 --> 00:14:37,459
-Why do you always have to be so negative?
-I'm not negative.

192
00:14:39,169 --> 00:14:41,797
It's just things are happening very fast

193
00:14:42,464 --> 00:14:46,135
and I think we need to be very careful
about committing ourselves to other people

194
00:14:46,218 --> 00:14:47,845
before we know what we're doing.

195
00:14:50,764 --> 00:14:51,849
Never mind.

196
00:14:52,808 --> 00:14:55,811
Do we have time to go home?
I want to change before the show.

197
00:14:57,897 --> 00:14:58,731
Yeah.

198
00:14:59,732 --> 00:15:01,650
I need to pick up a few things myself.

199
00:15:17,249 --> 00:15:18,709
<i>Hi, Bug.</i>

200
00:15:19,877 --> 00:15:23,005
So your dad used
to make these videos for me,

201
00:15:23,088 --> 00:15:25,716
and now you're making
the videos for Dad, so…

202
00:15:25,799 --> 00:15:28,510
…it's my turn.

203
00:15:28,594 --> 00:15:29,970
Because this one's for you.

204
00:15:32,431 --> 00:15:33,807
When you see this…

205
00:15:35,851 --> 00:15:39,521
you're gonna have a lot of questions,
and I won't be there to answer them.

206
00:15:41,023 --> 00:15:44,109
But I <i>can</i> tell you this.

207
00:15:47,905 --> 00:15:51,283
<i>I always keep a coffee can</i>

208
00:15:52,326 --> 00:15:55,329
<i>with 100 dollars</i>
<i>tucked at the very back of the pantry.</i>

209
00:15:58,582 --> 00:16:00,542
Why did I lead with that?

210
00:16:00,626 --> 00:16:03,921
You're just gonna buy
100 dollars-worth of Twix bars.

211
00:16:04,838 --> 00:16:05,756
But you know what?

212
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:07,633
Enjoy.

213
00:16:08,717 --> 00:16:10,886
Just make sure
you don't eat them all in the same day.

214
00:16:20,354 --> 00:16:23,649
I can tell you
where I stashed the insurance papers

215
00:16:24,483 --> 00:16:25,776
<i>and the extra checkbooks.</i>

216
00:16:35,869 --> 00:16:38,497
And, by the way,
your passport's expired.

217
00:16:38,580 --> 00:16:40,416
<i>I'm really, really sorry about that.</i>

218
00:16:44,878 --> 00:16:50,426
I even wrote down the recipe
for your favorite mac and cheese.

219
00:16:51,385 --> 00:16:54,763
But, Dion, you have to promise me,
please never, never forget,

220
00:16:56,056 --> 00:16:58,726
sharp cheddar is for flavor.

221
00:16:58,809 --> 00:17:02,813
Colby Jack is for that
below-the-surface mouthfeel.

222
00:17:03,731 --> 00:17:10,029
Mozzarella is for the stringy-melty…
American cheese for the golden crust.

223
00:17:10,112 --> 00:17:13,741
And then, cream cheese
for that extra special flavor,

224
00:17:13,824 --> 00:17:17,494
and I'm not talking about
the bougie garlic and chives cream cheese.

225
00:17:17,578 --> 00:17:19,163
I'm talking Philadelphia.

226
00:17:19,246 --> 00:17:22,166
Because, "If it ain't broke,
don't fix it."

227
00:17:25,919 --> 00:17:27,671
There's so much I want to tell you.

228
00:17:29,465 --> 00:17:33,427
You gotta let the girl know
if it's gonna be a date.

229
00:17:35,596 --> 00:17:37,389
And when you have kids of your own,

230
00:17:38,474 --> 00:17:40,017
hide the Sharpies.

231
00:17:47,357 --> 00:17:49,735
You're gonna have to grow up…

232
00:17:52,071 --> 00:17:54,406
a lot faster than you should.

233
00:17:57,409 --> 00:17:58,660
But you're gonna be okay.

234
00:18:00,412 --> 00:18:03,791
And even if you're not okay…

235
00:18:06,126 --> 00:18:07,127
that's okay.

236
00:18:08,670 --> 00:18:10,255
Because you have a great heart,

237
00:18:11,131 --> 00:18:12,299
powers or no powers.

238
00:18:16,678 --> 00:18:17,554
Huh.

239
00:18:19,681 --> 00:18:20,849
Being your mom…

240
00:18:23,811 --> 00:18:27,314
has, hands down,
been one of the greatest things I've ever…

241
00:19:06,103 --> 00:19:08,647
Should we wait
for Chairman Cutler to join us?

242
00:19:08,730 --> 00:19:09,857
As of this morning,

243
00:19:09,940 --> 00:19:12,693
Mr. Cutler is stepping back
from his duties as chairman.

244
00:19:14,319 --> 00:19:15,154
Oh.

245
00:19:17,573 --> 00:19:21,118
But the board is very intrigued
by your urgent appeal.

246
00:19:21,201 --> 00:19:23,579
We're all ears. Proceed when ready.

247
00:19:28,667 --> 00:19:32,087
In our work to create
a cure for the parasitic infection

248
00:19:32,171 --> 00:19:33,630
afflicting Nicole Warren,

249
00:19:35,048 --> 00:19:37,217
we have identified the primary difference

250
00:19:37,301 --> 00:19:40,095
between our Supers
and an ordinary human being.

251
00:19:40,179 --> 00:19:43,473
Aside from things
like telekinesis and teleportation?

252
00:19:47,603 --> 00:19:48,437
Yes.

253
00:19:49,521 --> 00:19:50,480
Aside from that.

254
00:19:51,607 --> 00:19:55,194
The crucial difference
is a third strand of DNA,

255
00:19:56,486 --> 00:19:59,823
which we believe not only defines
the abilities gifted to the Supers,

256
00:19:59,907 --> 00:20:01,658
but which…

257
00:20:02,326 --> 00:20:04,369
And this is the really interesting part.

258
00:20:05,245 --> 00:20:07,539
We may just be able
to create a gene therapy

259
00:20:07,623 --> 00:20:11,084
to give exceptional powers to non-Supers.

260
00:20:17,341 --> 00:20:21,011
I hope the reason you are speechless
is because I just handed you

261
00:20:21,094 --> 00:20:24,598
the scientific growth area
and profit center of the next century.

262
00:20:26,391 --> 00:20:28,518
Custom tailored superpowers

263
00:20:29,102 --> 00:20:32,898
for any human being, agency,
or army with deep enough pockets.

264
00:20:34,149 --> 00:20:38,153
We stand on a threshold,
and on the other side is BIONA,

265
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:42,741
a world leader that will dwarf
Google, Apple, and Amazon.

266
00:20:44,368 --> 00:20:46,286
All you have to do is fund a new team,

267
00:20:46,995 --> 00:20:47,955
my team,

268
00:20:48,038 --> 00:20:50,415
to immediately launch
into this new application.

269
00:20:54,836 --> 00:20:56,755
Do you have a head injury?

270
00:20:58,215 --> 00:21:01,510
-Excuse me?
-I asked if you had a head injury.

271
00:21:02,094 --> 00:21:05,722
Because only a person
with something seriously wrong with them

272
00:21:05,806 --> 00:21:08,308
could present this insanity
with a straight face.

273
00:21:10,060 --> 00:21:11,270
I mean…

274
00:21:11,353 --> 00:21:13,772
Look, we don't have this
completely worked out,

275
00:21:13,855 --> 00:21:15,023
but with proper funding--

276
00:21:15,107 --> 00:21:16,275
Proper funding?

277
00:21:16,358 --> 00:21:18,485
How about a half a billion dollars?

278
00:21:19,069 --> 00:21:22,614
Because that's how much money
BIONA, under Ben Cutler,

279
00:21:22,698 --> 00:21:25,200
poured into covering up
what happened in Iceland.

280
00:21:25,784 --> 00:21:28,704
Settlements, hush money,
medical treatments, relocation--

281
00:21:28,787 --> 00:21:31,790
Yes, and I-I-I realize
we've had a few setbacks--

282
00:21:31,873 --> 00:21:33,250
Setbacks?

283
00:21:33,333 --> 00:21:36,920
It's my understanding that we straight up
killed a man in a lab a few days ago.

284
00:21:37,004 --> 00:21:40,048
Now, maybe you don't
find that to be an issue,

285
00:21:40,132 --> 00:21:44,219
but to those of us who actually
care about the welfare of humanity,

286
00:21:44,303 --> 00:21:46,680
not to mention this organization,

287
00:21:47,180 --> 00:21:48,932
that's kind of a black mark.

288
00:21:49,725 --> 00:21:52,602
I was hoping you were offering us
a way past this reckless error.

289
00:21:52,686 --> 00:21:56,732
But instead, you come before this board
and ask us for even more money

290
00:21:56,815 --> 00:21:59,568
so that you can figure out
a way to do this to people.

291
00:22:00,485 --> 00:22:01,570
On purpose.

292
00:22:05,574 --> 00:22:06,992
You can thank us for our time later.

293
00:22:08,618 --> 00:22:10,037
Oh, and on a personal note,

294
00:22:10,120 --> 00:22:13,415
this might be a good time
for you to beef up your CV.

295
00:22:28,513 --> 00:22:30,724
I'm gonna
make billions of dollars.

296
00:22:31,683 --> 00:22:34,311
The most important
scientific discovery of all time.

297
00:23:06,593 --> 00:23:07,677
You're going the wrong way.

298
00:23:09,554 --> 00:23:12,307
-No, I'm not.
-Yeah, Dion's school is back that way.

299
00:23:12,391 --> 00:23:13,350
It's up by the, um…

300
00:23:19,439 --> 00:23:20,565
What's with the suitcases?

301
00:23:23,693 --> 00:23:24,736
Mom, where are we going?

302
00:23:25,237 --> 00:23:26,071
Home.

303
00:23:26,571 --> 00:23:27,697
To Chicago? Why?

304
00:23:28,198 --> 00:23:29,032
It's time.

305
00:23:29,783 --> 00:23:30,784
Did something happen?

306
00:23:33,245 --> 00:23:35,747
-Mom, I don't wanna go back.
-Decision's been made.

307
00:23:35,831 --> 00:23:38,375
I finally have a place
where people accept me,

308
00:23:38,458 --> 00:23:39,876
where I'm figuring out what…

309
00:23:40,585 --> 00:23:42,796
What I am, and who I am.

310
00:23:42,879 --> 00:23:44,464
And you just decide to pull me out

311
00:23:44,548 --> 00:23:46,842
and drag me back to Chicago
without even talking about it?

312
00:23:49,428 --> 00:23:51,847
-Ma, you can't do this.
-What is my job?

313
00:23:52,639 --> 00:23:54,516
Janelle, what is my job?

314
00:23:55,267 --> 00:23:57,853
-To keep me safe.
-And that is exactly what I'm doing.

315
00:23:57,936 --> 00:24:00,939
-Safe from what? My friends?
-You mean that boy?

316
00:24:01,690 --> 00:24:06,319
-Baby, there'll be other boys.
-What about Tevin and Dion and Nicole?

317
00:24:07,946 --> 00:24:08,780
Baby,

318
00:24:10,115 --> 00:24:10,949
Nicole's dying.

319
00:24:13,201 --> 00:24:14,411
No, she's not, I saved her.

320
00:24:16,830 --> 00:24:17,914
It wasn't enough.

321
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,585
She's gonna die. She told me herself.

322
00:24:27,048 --> 00:24:27,883
I need to see her.

323
00:24:27,966 --> 00:24:29,468
-No.
-Yes!

324
00:24:30,844 --> 00:24:32,554
-Stop it.
-She believed in me.

325
00:24:32,637 --> 00:24:34,431
And Dion's gonna be all alone.

326
00:24:34,514 --> 00:24:36,099
-Mom, we have to go back.
-No.

327
00:24:38,477 --> 00:24:40,353
There's something hunting him, Janelle.

328
00:24:40,437 --> 00:24:42,189
Something that wants
to kill Powered people.

329
00:24:42,272 --> 00:24:45,317
And so we're running away
while he's in danger?

330
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:46,401
You're Powered.

331
00:24:46,485 --> 00:24:50,280
That thing could come for you,
and my job is to keep you safe.

332
00:24:52,407 --> 00:24:54,701
-Stop it!
-I'm not safe in Chicago.

333
00:24:54,784 --> 00:24:56,912
I'm safe at BIONA,
with people who understand me.

334
00:24:56,995 --> 00:25:00,415
We are going home
and we're gonna put this behind us.

335
00:25:00,499 --> 00:25:02,250
You are not one of those people.

336
00:25:02,334 --> 00:25:04,419
You have no idea who I am
and you don't wanna know!

337
00:25:05,086 --> 00:25:07,172
You just want me to shut up,
put my head down

338
00:25:07,255 --> 00:25:08,673
and pretend to be somebody else.

339
00:25:08,757 --> 00:25:11,343
I want you to be okay. Okay?

340
00:25:11,426 --> 00:25:15,180
-I want things to be normal.
-I'll never be normal!

341
00:25:15,263 --> 00:25:16,181
Janelle!

342
00:25:17,599 --> 00:25:18,475
Janelle!

343
00:25:18,558 --> 00:25:20,101
-Janelle!

344
00:25:22,187 --> 00:25:24,523
Janelle! Janelle?

345
00:25:25,690 --> 00:25:26,775
Janelle, baby.

346
00:25:28,777 --> 00:25:30,904
Baby! Where are you? Come back!

347
00:25:35,242 --> 00:25:36,910
Okay, let's try on this one.

348
00:26:02,394 --> 00:26:03,937
Cut! Cut!

349
00:26:04,020 --> 00:26:07,691
You done singing? 'Cause I have a set
of sheet music here that says otherwise.

350
00:26:07,774 --> 00:26:11,987
-I'm sorry, Mr. Kwame, it's just today--
-Dion, this is our opening number.

351
00:26:12,070 --> 00:26:15,365
Your solo kicks off the show.
You cannot let the energy drop, you hear?

352
00:26:16,741 --> 00:26:18,118
You gotta give it this.

353
00:26:29,504 --> 00:26:32,173
Strong arms. Project to the back row.

354
00:26:32,257 --> 00:26:33,800
This is your moment to shine.

355
00:26:34,593 --> 00:26:35,844
I'm sorry, Mr. Kwame.

356
00:26:37,137 --> 00:26:38,346
I can't.

357
00:26:40,307 --> 00:26:41,725
You got people in that audience?

358
00:26:44,603 --> 00:26:46,313
-Who?
-My mom.

359
00:26:48,148 --> 00:26:48,982
Your mom.

360
00:26:50,275 --> 00:26:52,902
I've been on stage
many times with your mama.

361
00:26:53,820 --> 00:26:56,031
Sometimes she was up,
sometimes she was down,

362
00:26:56,114 --> 00:26:58,783
but she always gave her best.

363
00:27:00,535 --> 00:27:03,204
She never let her little personal drama
shut her down.

364
00:27:03,747 --> 00:27:08,084
She did it for them.
For her friends, for her family,

365
00:27:08,168 --> 00:27:11,338
for the people who came to the theater
that night to feel something.

366
00:27:12,422 --> 00:27:15,925
You know what she said to me when
she asked me to direct this extravaganza?

367
00:27:16,009 --> 00:27:18,970
She said, "Kwame,
I love musicals, you know that,

368
00:27:19,679 --> 00:27:21,348
and Dion is a natural performer."

369
00:27:23,058 --> 00:27:24,726
"I want to see him shine."

370
00:27:24,809 --> 00:27:28,772
"And I know you, Kwame, you will
get that boy to shine his brightest."

371
00:27:29,439 --> 00:27:30,357
And you know what?

372
00:27:31,316 --> 00:27:35,111
I'm not gonna let your mama down.
Are you gonna let your mama down?

373
00:27:36,279 --> 00:27:37,113
No.

374
00:27:37,739 --> 00:27:39,449
You gonna shine for your mama?

375
00:27:40,116 --> 00:27:40,950
Yes.

376
00:27:41,660 --> 00:27:42,535
Yes?

377
00:27:42,619 --> 00:27:45,038
Is that… "Yes."

378
00:27:45,789 --> 00:27:47,207
Or… "Yes!"?

379
00:27:48,541 --> 00:27:49,376
The last one.

380
00:27:50,543 --> 00:27:51,920
That's what I want to hear.

381
00:27:54,422 --> 00:27:57,592
-Thirty minutes till places. Come on.
-Thirty minutes, people!

382
00:27:57,676 --> 00:28:00,512
That means the house is open,
audience is coming in.

383
00:28:00,595 --> 00:28:02,514
Get ready to make magic!

384
00:28:04,683 --> 00:28:05,934
Don't let your mama down.

385
00:28:07,727 --> 00:28:10,480
Come on, let's get these costumes.
Let's move, move, move.

386
00:28:22,283 --> 00:28:23,118
Ms. Warren.

387
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:24,994
Tevin.

388
00:28:26,329 --> 00:28:27,872
You do clean up good.

389
00:28:29,290 --> 00:28:31,626
Well, you know,
I really tried for my date tonight.

390
00:28:31,710 --> 00:28:33,211
Oh, you have a date. Where is she?

391
00:28:33,294 --> 00:28:35,505
Yeah, she's supposed to be…
You haven't seen her?

392
00:28:35,588 --> 00:28:36,631
-No.
-No?

393
00:28:36,715 --> 00:28:37,716
Mm-mm.

394
00:28:42,387 --> 00:28:43,388
Are those for me?

395
00:28:43,471 --> 00:28:44,889
Are you performing tonight?

396
00:28:44,973 --> 00:28:46,182
No, but

397
00:28:47,058 --> 00:28:49,102
Dion's not much of a red roses type.

398
00:28:49,185 --> 00:28:51,938
You know, you might be right.
You wanna hang on to 'em for me?

399
00:28:54,190 --> 00:28:55,900
Yeah, I can find a place for 'em.

400
00:29:04,159 --> 00:29:07,662
For the love of all things holy,
will you two kiss already?

401
00:29:07,746 --> 00:29:08,663
Hi, sis.

402
00:29:08,747 --> 00:29:10,081
How you doin'?

403
00:29:10,707 --> 00:29:11,583
Ask my date.

404
00:29:30,518 --> 00:29:31,394
I got this.

405
00:29:33,104 --> 00:29:33,938
I got this.

406
00:29:34,022 --> 00:29:36,149
-Ow!

407
00:29:36,232 --> 00:29:38,777
-Yo, Dion, are you okay?

408
00:29:38,860 --> 00:29:41,112
-Easy on the curtain!

409
00:29:41,196 --> 00:29:43,239
-We don't want the audience to see us.

410
00:29:49,370 --> 00:29:51,080
Can you hear that?

411
00:29:51,164 --> 00:29:54,125
Hear what?
Dion, we're like 15 minutes away!

412
00:29:54,209 --> 00:29:55,919
You're gonna take your spot, right?

413
00:29:56,002 --> 00:29:56,920
Yeah.

414
00:29:57,420 --> 00:30:00,381
-Do you want me to get Mr. Kwame?
-No! No!

415
00:30:00,465 --> 00:30:01,549
Where are you going?

416
00:30:08,848 --> 00:30:10,517
Is it time for another injection?

417
00:30:11,476 --> 00:30:13,770
I'm trying to hold out as long as I can.

418
00:30:15,730 --> 00:30:17,899
Is it the, uh… The last one?

419
00:30:21,986 --> 00:30:24,239
I'm just not ready
to start the countdown yet.

420
00:30:28,076 --> 00:30:30,870
I'm gonna hold out
for every last moment with Dion.

421
00:30:34,457 --> 00:30:35,583
Don't cry.

422
00:30:35,667 --> 00:30:37,210
Don't tell me what to do.

423
00:30:41,130 --> 00:30:44,801
I'm gonna give Dion
his opening night gift.

424
00:30:44,884 --> 00:30:46,886
You're gonna give him<i> that</i>
before the show?

425
00:30:46,970 --> 00:30:50,014
You know, go backstage,
give it to him, tell him to break legs.

426
00:30:50,098 --> 00:30:50,932
"Theater."

427
00:30:52,183 --> 00:30:54,102
-All right, come on.
-I got this.

428
00:30:54,894 --> 00:30:57,146
Okay, listen. Tell him
not to eat that before the show,

429
00:30:57,230 --> 00:30:59,023
or he's gonna be dancing on the ceiling.

430
00:30:59,107 --> 00:31:01,150
-Noted. I'll be right back.
-Okay.

431
00:31:07,490 --> 00:31:09,534
-What's up?
-Kat, I am sorry to bother you.

432
00:31:09,617 --> 00:31:12,120
I know you're with Nicole,
but we have a situation here.

433
00:31:12,203 --> 00:31:14,747
Pat injected himself
with the isolated strands of P-DNA.

434
00:31:14,831 --> 00:31:18,418
-What? Which ones?
-Every single strand.

435
00:31:18,501 --> 00:31:22,005
-Good Lord. Is he dead?
-Not yet, but doesn't look good.

436
00:31:22,088 --> 00:31:24,841
Wait, if he injected
all that separated DNA,

437
00:31:24,924 --> 00:31:26,718
how are you gonna work
on a cure for Nicole?

438
00:31:26,801 --> 00:31:29,262
-She's down to her last shot.
-<i>That's why I'm calling.</i>

439
00:31:29,345 --> 00:31:32,140
<i>If we have to start over,</i>
<i>collect new samples, try to separate them,</i>

440
00:31:32,223 --> 00:31:33,224
there's no time.

441
00:31:33,308 --> 00:31:34,392
So I need to know,

442
00:31:34,475 --> 00:31:37,437
is it medically possible to recover
any of that material from Pat?

443
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,024
We could use metallurgic enzymes
to extract the metallic P-DNA.

444
00:31:41,107 --> 00:31:43,443
That would bring with it
the telekinetic strands.

445
00:31:43,526 --> 00:31:46,362
-Well, how fast can you get here?
-Ten minutes.

446
00:31:46,446 --> 00:31:49,574
But, Suzanne, listen,
if Pat dies, none of this works.

447
00:31:49,657 --> 00:31:50,617
Then you'd better hurry.

448
00:31:54,162 --> 00:31:56,247
I need you to give Nicole
a message for me.

449
00:31:58,374 --> 00:32:00,668
-<i>Dion.</i>

450
00:32:01,294 --> 00:32:03,379
<i>Did you miss me?</i>
-<i>Brayden?</i>

451
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,382
<i>You didn't think</i>
<i>I'd be gone forever, did you?</i>

452
00:32:06,883 --> 00:32:10,887
<i>You think you and the nerd Avengers</i>
<i>would be enough to get rid of me?</i>

453
00:32:10,970 --> 00:32:12,263
<i>Where are you?</i>

454
00:32:15,725 --> 00:32:19,145
<i>I think you know</i>
<i>exactly where I am,</i>

455
00:32:19,228 --> 00:32:21,606
<i>and exactly what I'm going to do.</i>

456
00:32:21,689 --> 00:32:26,152
I'm not gonna let you hurt my friends.

457
00:32:26,235 --> 00:32:29,781
<i>The time for you</i>
<i>letting me do anything is over.</i>

458
00:32:30,573 --> 00:32:32,158
<i>I'm stronger than you.</i>

459
00:32:32,241 --> 00:32:33,701
<i>I'm better than you.</i>

460
00:32:33,785 --> 00:32:37,246
<i>And when I'm done,</i>
<i>there isn't going to be any you left.</i>

461
00:32:38,164 --> 00:32:41,000
<i>Just me with all your powers.</i>

462
00:32:41,084 --> 00:32:43,836
You want me? Fine, let's do this!

463
00:32:44,462 --> 00:32:46,047
<i>Meet me on the football field.</i>

464
00:32:46,130 --> 00:32:48,257
You mean the one
where I kicked The Crooked Man's butt?

465
00:32:49,842 --> 00:32:53,554
<i>This night</i>
<i>is going to end very differently.</i>

466
00:34:56,844 --> 00:34:59,347
{\an8}
