I'm out now.

I was just an average kid until an accident changed my life.

And since then, nothing's been the same.

My best friend Ray thinks it's cool.

My sister Annie thinks I'm a science project.

I can't let anyone else know.

Not even my parents.

I know the chemical plant was to find me and turn me into some experiment.

But you know something?

I guess I'm not so average anymore.

She told me she was with you, Ray.

When did you leave her?

Hours ago, who was she with?

Who? What do you mean a bunch of people? Who?

All right, all right.

I am calm. Don't I sound calm?

Have you heard from her? Have her call me immediately.

That's all you can say is, hey, excuse me, what do you want me to say?

You were supposed to be home over two hours ago, and you know it.

Mom and Dad made me responsible for you while they're away, and I have been

getting sick worrying about you.

What's wrong with you? You're not Mom. It's not even midnight.

And you're acting like I just threw your computer out the window. Look, I'm

here, and I'm fine.

Leave me alone.

You could show me a little respect.

I have spent the last three years of my life covering for you, and frankly, I'm

sick of it.

You can't possibly mean that, Annie. You've spent the last three years of

life making my life a total pain.

All in the name of you getting your scientific glory.

You have such a short memory.

After the accident, who was the first person you came running to?

Coming home from school, when this plant truck swerved, almost hitting me, and

then it crashed.

Bam! Right into a hydrant.

Then this barrel of gold stuff spilled out all over me.

Hmm.

You're not clever enough to make this up.

Your blood pressure and body temperature are normal.

How do you feel?

My arms and legs are all tingly.

What do you think it is?

I don't know. It could be nothing.

So I shouldn't worry?

Of course you should worry.

For all we know, you could have been hit by something that's seeping into your

brain cells at this very minute and attacking your central nervous system

you're going to turn into a quivering mass of jelly.

I didn't exactly come running to you, Annie. You just happened to walk in the

door at the right time. And frankly, I'm sorry you did. I wish this was my own

secret.

Like you could have kept the powers from me all this time.

I haven't exactly had a problem keeping them from Mom and Dad.

I don't understand, Danielle.

One day we're making progress. The next day we stop.

Now it's been pulled from development.

You

wouldn't

believe what's going on at the plant.

Since Lars joined the GP161 team, the stakes have definitely gone up.

I have the distinct feeling he knows something we don't.

You know what? That's not the point. I'm sure in her heart, Alex wants to be

there to support you.

Alex!

Look, Annie, I'm 15 years old. I just don't need you hanging around me

monitoring my zappers and morphs.

And I especially don't need you pretending to be mom when I'm out late

with my friends.

Just remember, without me, Alexandra, you might not even be here today.

You'd be locked in a cage. It's a plant. Without me, Anne, you wouldn't have a

life.

Just remember, without me, Alexandra.

Without me, Alexandra.

Just a minute.

It'll keep her symptoms under control until I can think of something better.

Of course, somebody with your unique chemical makeup might have some weird

effects. Do you realize that the main ingredient in these was a hydrophilic

polymer?

No, Annie, I did not realize that. Well, it reacted with your internal GC -161,

which naturally caused your morphine frenzy.

What was that?

The chemical plant probably coated these with some substance that reacts with GC

-161. I have to drink this? All of it.

It's an over -the -counter digestive product that's mixed with the anti -GC

solution. It should solve the problem.

What would you do without me?

and you wouldn't have a life.

You wouldn't have a life.

Okay.

Now, I'm going to test the independence of your molecular structure.

Whatever.

Go ahead and stay as small as you can.

You're not concentrating.

No, I'm not.

I need to ask you something.

I just wanted to know how you get a boyfriend.

Well, I guess we entered a new phase in our relationship.

No big deal. I'm just curious.

Alex, Bryce is going to be here any minute. Let's finish the test first.

works every time.

Orange plate.

Yellow plate.

Blue plate.

Alex, your powers seem to be increasing in strength every month.

Well, let's do something difficult then. Or at least go to the movies or

something. It's time for me to live my life.

I want my own comic book.

Would you stay completely still, please?

of being your guinea pig at home.

Uh -huh.

Look, just stay quiet and do what you're told, okay?

Lab animals are so much easier.

Oh, I'm sorry.

No, I am. You were right.

Oh, I'm so sorry I snapped.

Just that I really did worry about you.

I should have called.

It's okay. Forget it. You're here now.

I was going to get some cocoa. You want some?

Sure. Go.

I know I've kind of been all over you, but...

You gotta admit, there are a lot of times where you would not have known

do without me.

So you think I couldn't survive without you constantly on my back?

No, I don't.

Well, just be careful.

At least be careful.

Alex.

That could have just as easily been Mom or Dad. No, it couldn't. They always

knock.

Well, maybe I have been a little harsh, but...

Still, you needed me, face it.

I'm not so sure.

Rick, look after me.

Ray, please. He's the worst possible person to protect you.

You'd be locked in that cage at the plant right now.

If I was, I bet Ray would come and get me out.

I know I got the keys here somewhere.

Ray, hurry!

Here they are.

How you been doing?

Don't get me wrong, I like Ray.

A little. He's just not the most responsible person in the world.

I think we're getting older.

That's the first time I ever stopped watching TV on purpose.

Let's let a guy behind go see.

Like when we were seven?

You couldn't morph when you were seven.

The game might be a little more interesting.

Annie would hate it. Annie isn't here.

I hate her.

So fry her.

Very funny.

Al, you know we go way back, and whatever you do is okay with me.

But you're just way too nice.

Kelly, she gets so zapped that it isn't even funny.

You're playing great. I just stink.

You do not. But you know how you can help her.

Sorry, Ray. Can't do it. It'd be cheating.

I think you should just give her a nice zap in the butt.

I told you, I can't do that.

Annie says not to use my powers in public.

Look, let's not argue.

Hey, you want to watch a scary movie or something?

It's the perfect night for it.

Sure, why not?

Mom and Dad won't be home until tomorrow morning.

Let's stay up real late.

Cool.

I think we may need another plan.

I'm not scared. Are you?

No, not at all.

Is that the light again?

Sorry. Really.

What good are you?

You know, that's the thing about the powers, Annie.

When you come right down to it, what good are they?

No, I'm serious.

Don't get me wrong. I mean, they're fun and everything.

It's just, what can I really do with them?

I don't think you've had a shortage of situations to use them in.

I'm just saying, it's not like I can fly or lift cars or something.

Unless you eat mom's curry.

Um, okay. That was pretty easy.

Oh, help me move this.

Pretty easy.

Easy? Six large ones, baby.

No matter what you say, there is not a kid in this world who wouldn't want to

have your powers.

Why? I mean, take the zappers. Yeah, I can shoot electricity out of my fingers,

but when does that come in handy?

Do I have to make a lid?

thousand degrees centigrade not fair man i think i've just lost power here

You can shoot electricity through your fingers.

You're a telekinesis.

Telekinesis?

Telekinesis?

Do you know what telekinesis has done for me? Made me lazier.

Give me a break. As I recall, telekinesis has saved your butt quite a

Okay, I'm going to try and swing you to me.

Come on, Alex.

Come on, Annie, reach.

Come on, Annie.

We're so close.

All right, all right.

I'm not saying it hasn't helped. I'm not saying I want to trade it in.

I suppose you think morphing is a waste of time, too.

It would be if I listened to you, if I only did it in private under your

observations.

I believe you've ignored that request about a hundred times.

And that's just the times you know about.

Just don't tell Annie.

I think this is the best spot.

Let's go.

What are you doing?

You should have brought me with you.

Sorry. Climb over.

Ray, snap out of it.

Alex.

You know, I'm not going to be here forever.

Keep saying that, but you're still here.

Not for long.

I got accepted to MIT yesterday.

And you didn't tell anyone?

Yeah, I don't know why. I was so excited when I got it, and then it hit me that

I was really going to go, and it's kind of scary.

Well, you don't have to worry about me, Annie.

I'll be okay.

I'll be careful.

I know you will. It's not that.

It's scary because I'm going to miss you.

You just mean you're going to miss your favorite science project.

No. I mean, I'm going to continue to work on GC -161 when I'm gone, but...

You have turned into a great person.

Really.

Powers are no powers.

I am going to miss having you as a friend.

And I used to think that I was always teaching you stuff.

But I think you've taught me a lot, too.

I'm leaving my class.

It didn't work out.

Basically, I'm not good enough.

I bet you could be if you wanted to be.

But I mean, you have so much else going on. You can conquer it later.

Hey, you want to go to the mall before I go home?

It's Thursday and I can show you how Ray and I score free mini donuts.

Come on, it's really fun.

Alex, there is nothing I would rather do than go to the mall with you.

Come on.

Well, I sort of hit the brake a little late.

So, in other words, you totally plowed into the tree.

Exactly.

Well... We know what you have to go do.

Annie!

Annie!

Don't try to stop me, because this is between me and Bryce.

Annie, do you really think Bryce would have come all the way over to our house

to break up with you if he didn't mean it?

Annie, look at you.

You're totally brilliant.

And if you just changed your wardrobe and hairstyle a little, you'd probably

almost gorgeous, too.

And I happen to know there's a nice personality hiding underneath.

You're going to meet a billion guys better than Price. I promise.

I love you, Annie.

I love you too, Alex.

Go to bed. I'm sure you need your rest.

Definitely.

We've been through a lot, haven't we?

Yeah, we have.

are you scared yet no you're lying i am not lying i never lie you lie all the

time
