Further details
Episode five sees a visit by some famous superhero parents when Sarah's mum and dad arrive at The Fortress. She's less than pleased to see them, and enlists Alex's help to annoy them as much as possible. However, Exclesor and Sarah's dad have their own rather messy joke to play on Alex.
Tired of the super hero life, Jenny gets herself a normal office job. But when she finds out that her colleague is a "capist", will she be able to keep her super-strengths powers in check?
To try and come to terms with his own issues, Don has joined a therapy group, where out of sorts super heroes can meet to talk through their various problems. A lifetime of killing has left him pretty troubled, but a session with some of his fellow heroes starts to make him feel better.
