Previously on Lightning Point.

Zoe and Brandon are officially going out. I thought we'd get a few friends

together to celebrate.

What's this?

It's nothing. Just give it to me.

Brandon cloaked my... Can't you just tell me how to get him to reverse the

cloaking? You need to be intuitive.

You have to really want it back.

It takes lumen and DNA to activate these.

Brandon is half human, half alien.

Oh boy, it's just me.

Easy boy, settle down.

What the?

It's okay boy, it's not going to hurt you.

Steady. Steady.

What are you doing to my horse?

Relax. I haven't done anything.

I'm just trying to flip it out.

Easy, boy.

Easy.

He's not scared of me.

It's red haze around him. Red haze?

Yeah. Easy, boy. Can't you see that? No, I can't see anything.

It's you. You're upsetting him. I think you should go.

Brandon, get out of here.

Okay, okay.

Just go.

Easy, boy. Easy.

Hey, boy.

Easy.

Easy, boy.

Red Haze.

That's what he said.

So, even though he's only a... What did you call him?

A hybrid.

Half human, half luminant. He can still see it.

It would seem so.

He has no idea about the extent of his powers.

Or how to control them.

Wait.

You guys need to recharge regularly, right?

Brandon doesn't know that, so... Won't his powers run out of dude eventually?

Yeah.

But when?

We've never had any experience with anyone like him.

What's so funny?

I've spent...

He is looking for aliens and now it turns out I've been living with one all

my life.

His head must be spinning.

One day he's just a guy and the next he's a guy with an arsenal of alien

powers. At least he doesn't know what it all means.

Still, we unlocked him so we're going to have to keep a close eye on him.

We'll have to take shifts.

We can't leave him alone.

You want us to babysit Brandon.

No.

I'll do it. He's my responsibility.

And the fact he's also your boyfriend doesn't have anything to do with it?

You're here to give me another lecture, David.

I'm just trying to look out for you.

You want a smoothie?

Watch out. Don't change the subject.

Banana or walnut?

You're out of control.

As usual, you're exaggerating. Am I? Look at what you did to Bandit this

morning. So there's a learning curve. Big deal.

Don't be dangerous, Brandon.

Can't you see that?

This stuff is the most amazing thing that's ever happened to me.

The day this showed up, everything changed.

We've only seen a fraction of what it can do.

I bet there's a whole lot more.

Okay.

So give me the card and I'll check it out.

Maybe you'll take it and I'll never see it again.

No, trust me.

You've been trying to talk me out of using it ever since I got it.

Believe me, man, you'd be better off without it.

You're the one who's been...

You're the one who's been obsessed with aliens all this time.

Now I've got this amazing plasma card. You're freaking out. I don't like what

it's doing to you.

That's too bad, because I do.

If you don't want a piece of this, that's fine. I'll find someone else who

does.

Brandon.

Let's go.

Come on.

Kiki, okay?

What happened?

Your boyfriend happened.

We were at the diner.

Brandon and I had an argument, and he stormed out.

But as he brushed past Kiki, something happened to her.

You think Brandon caused it?

That's how it looked.

We need to do something.

Can't you try and get the cart? I did, but he wouldn't even let me hold it.

He thinks it makes him invincible.

I hate to say it, but from what I've seen, he's right.

He is powerful.

How are you feeling?

Better.

Thanks for helping me.

What happened with Brandon?

It was like he was sucking the life out of me.

Or sucking the energy out of you?

Do you think his own energy levels are getting low? He was drawing energy out

of you through touch.

So he'll eventually run out of energy, right?

Then things can get back to normal around here.

As long as he doesn't figure out how to use the card to recharge.

Then it's up to us to make sure he doesn't.

Be careful.

If he drains all of your energy, you'll morph into plasma and be exposed.

I won't let that happen.

Hey. Awesome wave.

They were better before.

Do you want to go back out there?

You're so different.

Is that different in a good way?

I can tell you things I can't tell other people.

What? You mean like secrets?

Yeah.

Don't you usually talk to Luca about those sort of things?

He's your brother.

He's bugging me right now.

So, what's this secret?

Let's go.

I want to show you something.

I should have told you from the start.

I have special powers.

Special powers?

Uh-huh.

I know it sounds ridiculous.

Look, it's probably easier if I just show you.

Okay.

Sure.

I don't get it.

What's supposed to happen?

I can make the ball come to me.

Uh-huh.

It's true.

Sure, I believe you.

Just watch.

This time it will happen.

Why won't it work?

Brandon, it's okay.

You don't have to be a superhero to impress me.

Can we just... Go for a surf.

No. No. I can prove it to you.

See this?

This is what gave me the powers. It came out of a toy lighthouse Luca found on my

parents' boat.

It came out of a toy?

Zoe, you have to believe me.

It belongs to them.

Aliens.

You do know how crazy this sounds.

I know, but it's true.

I have powers.

I can move objects.

I saw Bandit's aura.

I made Madison disappear using the card.

What?

I don't understand.

Zoe, please. I wouldn't make this up.

If this is some kind of joke, it isn't very funny.

Wait.

Don't go. It'll work. I promise.

I told you.

Brandon, I'm interested in you, not stupid games.

When that finally thinks in, give me a call.

He touched me and nothing happened.

So that's it. It's over.

His alien energy's run out. He's normal again.

And I hope that's how it stays because I don't like having to pretend he's crazy.

You did what you had to do.

He trusted me, Amber, and I lied to him.

Guilt or no guilt, there's no choice.

I just don't feel right about this.

That's exactly how I felt with Luca. But Brandon's one of us.

We have an obligation to tell him the truth.

We can't risk it.

And anyway, there's no point.

Not now.

Over.

Brandon, what are you doing?

I thought you'd be pleased to know that I'm back to normal.

The cards ran out of due.

Are you feeling okay?

Let's see.

My powers are gone.

And my girlfriend thinks I've lost my marbles.

Does that class look okay?

No. Then no.

Wait, why does Zoe think that you could?

I told her that I had special powers and aliens gave them to me.

And she freaked out. She thinks I'm some kind of crazy alien hunting lunatic.

You can hardly blame her.

I don't blame her, but I have to prove I'm not crazy.

And just how do you plan to do that?

I need to get the card working again.

And for that I need your help.

I wouldn't have a clue where to start. That's not what you said this morning.

This morning I wanted to take the card from you so you couldn't use it anymore.

Now I don't have to. It's useless.

You don't know that for sure.

Has it ever occurred to you that the card might have a shelf life?

That it might only work once?

No.

There's more to it than that. Forget about it.

Get back to your life.

Your girlfriend.

Surfing. So you won't help me?

No.

Fine. Then I'll figure it out on my own.

Brandon took off on the bike. Luke hasn't seen him for hours and he can't

find the card.

He wants to know if you have any idea where he keeps it.

Zoe, I know you don't feel right about this, but... Brandon's a danger to

himself.

This is our best chance to get the card away from him.

Fine. I'll go.

No.

I'll do it.

I know where he keeps it I'll come with you I have to do this on my own

Did he get it?

It wasn't in the hiding spot.

He must have had it with him.

Did he see you?

No, but I'm sure he knows that somebody was snooping.

Great.

Now he won't let it out of his sight.

I've been looking for you.

Is that what you want to be seeing with me?

You okay?

I don't know.

Just feeling kind of low, I guess.

Probably normal for a guy who freaked out his girlfriend by talking about

aliens. And came out looking like a big loser. You're not a loser.

The car didn't work.

But it's real, Zoe.

I wanted to show you.

You don't have to prove anything to me.

Yes, I do.

You knew how I felt when I had this power.

Like there was pure energy going through my veins.

Nothing is ever going to compare to that feeling.

Sorry, I'm doing it again.

Some people are scared of the unknown.

I'm not one of them.

So you believe me?

I don't think anyone understands how the universe works, or why, or even what's

out there.

All I know for sure is that it's big and it's complicated.

The rest is detail.

No one understands me like you do.

We have a lot in common.

More than that, like we somehow connect.

I feel it too.

I guess we're good?

We're good.

Brandon?

I didn't need your help after all.

But how?

I remembered something from when I was a kid.

It was like I just... woke up.

Suddenly it all made sense.

And after all this time we thought you were the smart one. Brandon. Save it,

Luca. All I was going to say is if you want to carry on doing what you're doing

then... You have my full support.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Thanks, man. It means a lot. Hey.

What are brothers for?

I think I've got something to blast for me!

Card or no card, you've never been a match for me.

Now that I've got this working again, I'm going to master it.

You don't have the power to do anything.

But don't mess with me.

We've worked out how to reactivate the card.

What?

I don't know.

He said something inside him just woke up.

Whatever that means.

It means he's learned how to use his lumen and energy to power up the cards.

And how did he learn to do that?

I didn't tell him anything.

He's worked it out for himself.

After he talked to you.

He was feeling embarrassed that he made a fool of himself in front of me.

I was just trying to make him feel better about himself.

It worked.

Yeah. Too well.

So has he got his powers back?

Didn't hang around to find out if he hasn't yet it won't be long Then he'll

be unstoppable
