After an eerie and intense sleepover, Venessa reflects on Ms. Kennan, a strangely overprotective mother. No matter how many times she runs the situation over in her head, nothing makes sense. Yet, her foster mom, Annelise, believes her. Meanwhile, national elections are approaching, and the stakes are higher than ever. One candidate for the presidency is of a neutral stance on powered children and the Keepers, while the other is blatantly anti-powered Preserver who desires to enforce strict laws aimed at punishing powered children into giving up their gifts. Venessa and the other foster children prepare to navigate an even more restrictive environment as bracelet sales for the Preserver cause and anti-powered propaganda are displayed everywhere in public.
