The All American

When a woman falls in front of a bus, Jesse rushes to help, but a high school student, Bill (Doug Johnson), gets there first and pushes the bus out of the way. Jesse follows him to the high school where he takes a job as a substitute teacher. When one of Bill's friends nearly falls off the high school building, Jesse rescues him, revealing his powers to Bill in the process. Bill admits that he was part of a coup from within the Council and that he was placed on Earth eighteen years ago in the body of an infant. Billy's Control and Jesse's Control try to prevent them from having contact with each other. Bill plans to go to Harvard, become a lawyer, and eventually become the President of the United States. When Bill resorts to violence to further these ends, Jesse breaks ties with him, so Bill frames him. Jesse escapes from the police and fights with Bill. He convinces Bill to give up his ambition and when he does, Bill passes his final test and is taken home.
