This is all just too much, being like this has already ruined my life!
Woah, you need to calm down, seriously.
Why's nobody listening to me? I don't want to have powers, I don't want to save the world, okay?
Okay, I hear you. But you're rejecting something you don't fully understand, Jen. Like I told you, this is a gift, a blessing from God.
In your opinion. It doesn't make it the truth. What if this is a curse from the devil?
You don't even know what you can do. I mean you could be–
You know what? I don't want to know. I don't want to know.
Oh, so you're just gonna walk away?
Yes.
That's what you do when things get tough, you walk away. Go ahead, quit.
Girl, bye.
Jennifer, look at me. This is real. It's real. People are out there dying. And we have powers, powers that we have a responsibility to help save people.
No! You have a responsibility to help save people! I don't have a responsibility to do anything.
Okay, yup, you're right, you don't. And you know what? It's probably best that you don't find out what you can do because you just might quit. Just like you quit track, you'll probably quit on me, Mom, and Dad when we need you the most, and let's not forget that you quit on Khalil too. [off Jennifer's look] Yup, I said it.
[Jennifer's powers activate]
