- "Three years ago, 4400 missing people, each with an extraordinary ability, reappeared in a ball of light, and the world wondered why. Six months ago the promicin shot made those abilities accessible to anyone with the courage to take it, and again, the world wondered why. Today, we tell them why. Today, we answer all the questions, and after today, the world will never be the same."
- ―Jordan Collier

In this episode, Jordan Collier embarks upon his most ambitious plan yet. Flanked by a legion of followers, he establishes a bunker at a dilapidated pollution-heavy neighborhood along the Duwamish River. Members of his group use their abilities to cleanse the blighted area of pollution and they set up an electrified perimeter around the entire area. Collier conducts a press conference, declaring this area as a new paradise for returnees, dubbing it Promise City. Those who want no part of him, have no need to fear him or his people. They just want to be left in peace.
