Episode Recap

In this episode, we meet Sydney, a 17 year old high school student who lives a pretty boring, yet challenging life. With her father having passed away and her family life being quite complicated, Syd is going through a difficult chapter. Thankfully, she has the support of her bubbly friend Dina, who is now dating the jock of the football team, Bradley Lewis (who Syd definitely hates).

Syd also seems to have a new friendship with her dorky yet extremely friendly and lovable neighbor, Stanley, who took a quick liking to her. While her two friendships are positives. her issue is that she seems to not have complete control over her emotions. While in a diner with Dina and Bradley, Syd gets a bit jealous of her best friend’s new man who is taking her attention, and somehow causes his nose to bleed. This definitely freaks Syd out, but not as much as when she gets angry at her mother for being insensitive and causes a huge crack in her bedroom wall with her anger. Syd starts to realize that she has some very rare abilities, but has no idea why…

The finale is here. And Syd is being super positive, which is very unlike her. But she’s definitely ecstatic because it’s finally Homecoming, and she’s going with Dina! Syd dresses up in a gorgeous dress and has a very cute moment with her mother, who she now seems to be really getting along with. Dina arrives and they head to the dance! While Stan is a bit bummed out that he can’t go to the school dance with Syd, he run into her there. When they arrive, things seem to be going great. But things go south rather quickly. Bradley Lewis, who is clearly intoxicated and has Syd’s diary, steals the microphone while the Homecoming King is giving his speech and goes on an extremely mean tirade about how Syd is a ‘dyke’ and how she’s completely in love with Dina. While Bradley is about to expose Syd in front of the entire school for having super powers, Syd has a flashback to all of the moments she used her power and out of nowhere….. makes Bradley’s head LITERALLY explode. The whole school runs off in panic and the season ends with the now bloody Syd meeting an unknown man. But who exactly is this mysterious figure? Tune into Season 2 to find out.
