Naomi, “Fellowship of the Disc”, Review!

Last ep, we had Zumbado reveal that he is there to protect Naomi!, he knew her parents and watched her grow up.  We have a closeup between Naomi and Nathan, he then gives a swing at miniature golf, and the ball ends up in the water trap.  Nathan gets encouragement from Annabelle and Jacob.  Annabelle and Naomi both make their putts.  Naomi gets a strange sense of something, she wanders around trying to find the source.  Annabelle interrupts her so Naomi just smiles.  At the McDuffie house, Naomi prepares desserts with a French theme.  Her parents are surprised at Naomi making a meal for their 20th anniversary in France.  They are concerned about Naomi and are thinking about cancelling the party.  Their anniversary party is dangerous?  Naomi says she’s making a slideshow and they agree to the party.  Naomi heads to school and gets the ringing sound, her parents’ thoughts! 

At school, Naomi talks with Annabelle, she wants to move from Port Oswego because of the danger she is in.  At the basement workout gym, Naomi trains with a bo stick.  Zumbado questions the training with the bo stick.  He warns her about Brutus.  Dee notes that if she trains with her powers it would draw danger.  Naomi agrees to Dee’s training.  Night, Annabelle and Naomi return to her house, her parents went out to eat.  Naomi again has the strange sense and goes up the stairs.  In her room, she sense that someone was in her room and stole the disc.  She looks out the window to find the thief.  At Claws & Effect, another clever store name, Naomi and Annabelle work scrubbing a sink and go over what is happening.  Jacob hears the “alien hunting” and brings up the explosion at S.T.A.R. Labs.  He notes that there is an alien detection device.

Naomi gets a call from Zumado.  On a rooftop, Zumbado turns to tell her that they are going to be training, he asks her if she can fly.  She tells them when she jumped from the bridge which Zumbado calls “weight negation.”  Nathan and Anthony enter the comic book shop, it has a nice cover of Nubia vs. Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman #206 (1973).  Lourdes enters carrying a comic box.  Anthony and Nathan are student volunteers for the store.  She says her father wanted them to have community service.  Lourdes says they have over a thousand comics, a modest collection.  Naomi enters S.T.A.R. Labs and sees Jacob with his flashlight.  He says the building is empty.  He finds Dr. Bell’s observation room with computers.  Naomi takes a hard drive from a computer.  Security is not strong at S.T.A.R. Labs, there should at least be a security camera or a passing guard!  They start to leave and a column is about to fall on Jacob so Naomi has it held up!   


At school, Jacob checks in on Naomi, he is excited about her powers.  Jacob says they are a fellowship and then Annabelle interrupts them and she is suspicious.  Lourdes tells Nathan and Anthony that Future State and Detective Comics are filed under B for Batman.  I like the comic shop touch with Lourdes.  Anthony complains about the hours of work.  Nathan finds Lourdes secret stash, out on a table?  Her box has comics in frames that she sells to keep the store going.  She signs their papers for their 40 hours and sends them away.  At home, Jacob tells Dr. Bell studied “dynamic acceleration” that detected Naomi’s identity.  Jacob has an invention and Naomi suggests that they combine both inventions.  They start going all MacGuyver on the new alien detector.  On his laptop, Jacob has detected three other alien people.  The boy genius, building an alien detector, is implausible, but it is a superhero show.  Naomi points out one located at a storage unit.

Dee is working on a device, Zumbado says it could work, he says her powers should be accelerated. He is concerned that her powers are out of control and could endange her.  At the 27, rental unit, Naomi opens the sliding door.  They start to check the storage unit, Jacob finds a box labeled “Naomi’s Baby Stuff.”  Naomi finds in a bag full of money and a passport that shows Naomi as Kayla Sydney.  Naomi’s parents are putting up decorations and Naomi  throws down he bag.  Naomi brings up the move to keep her safe.  At the comics store, Lourdes finds the store filled, with Anthony and Jacob holding a LoTR “Can You Stump the King?” Trivia contest.  Lourdes takes the microphone and sends out the people.  She doesn’t like Lord of the Rings and thinks it isn’t comics related.  Nathan says he wanted to help.  A store owner who doesn’t like customers?  Bad business. Annabelle has to deal with her best friend not confiding with her.  Zumbado faces off with Dee over the training of Naomi, a la Forbidden Kingdom (2008), "Two masters cannot teach the same student", and there is the mystery of a hidden alien!  The Naomi ep splits off groups so we can explore them a bit more and the alien who stole her disc!
