Jayson arrived back at his house with a few groceries and puts up his groceries in the refrigerator and cabinets.
[Jayson Outfit]
Afterwards, he sits down at his computer desk and visits his childhood best friend's, Frankie Novak's, blog website.
Frankie (on laptop): Good morning, Silvertroplis, I hope everyone is having a good day because I am. I wanna talk about everyone's favorite masked superhero, Super Knight. He is so awesome and he is so incredible. I don't know how, but he just shows up from out of nowhere. Super Knight is a good guy and he continues to do good things. Silvertroplis adores you, Super Knight. You're awesome.
Jayson clicks off Frankie's blog website and gets up. He takes his backpack and walks away.

In the conference room, Mr. Cheetam is meeting with his newspaper writers and reporters.
"Super Knight has become a superhero fighter in our small town. He has prevented trouble and danger. He has even saved lives. He has been in our newspaper articles for weeks. Everyone talks about him. Everyone adores him." Mr. Cheetam said. "Alright, everyone, return back to your desks."
Everyone gathers their belongings and gets up from the table and walks away.
Jayson gets up with his backpack.
"Mr. Reynolds?" Mr. Cheetam asked.
Jayson looks at his boss, Mr. Cheetam. "Yes, sir?"
"I need an interview with Super Knight. Since you're the photographer, and buddies with him, do you think you can contact him for me?" Mr. Cheetam asked.
"Yes, sir, Mr. Cheetam. I'll contact him." Jayson told him with a small smile.
"Alright." Mr. Cheetam said and walks away.
Jayson small smiles to himself, hoping that his interview goes well as Super Knight.

[Mavis Outfit]
Jayson and Mavis exchange small smiles at each other.
"Hey, Jay." Mavis greeted him with a small smile.
"Hey, Mav." Jayson greeted her back with a small smile.
Jayson and Mavis shares a hug and exchange another small smiles at each other.
"I checked out Frankie's blog website. It was pretty good." Jayson said. "Are you occupied with anything?"
"Um, not at the moment." Mavis told him. "Why? What is it?"
"Not here." Jayson said.
Jayson and Mavis walks over to the staircase and walks up to the second floor balcony railing.
"I'm conflicted about telling my grandma, your parents and Frankie's parents about my superhero secret." Jayson said.
"It's up to you to tell them, Jay." Mavis said to him. "Frankie and I will be there with you."
"Thanks, Mavis. For always being there for me and for your support." Jayson thanked her with a small smile.
"You're welcome." Mavis said.

Afterwards, Melissa Reyes, Mr. Curtis and Melody Haddock, along with Mr. Hannibal and Mrs. Michelle Novak are with Jayson, Mavis and Frankie in the conference room and with the window blinds closed.
"Jayson? Why did you text us to meet you here in the conference room? I have a meeting in a few minutes?" Mayor Michelle Novak asked.
"I know, Mayor Novak, but this will take a few minutes." Jayson said. "You guys? I have to tell you something."
"Okay. What is it?" Melissa Reyes asked.
"You guys know of Super Knight?" Jayson asked.
"Yeah, we do. The town does well." Curtis Haddock said.
"Jayson? What's wrong? You're worrying me?" Melissa Reyes asked.
"I'm Super Knight." Jayson told them.
Melissa Reyes, Mr. Curtis and Melody Haddock, and Mr. Hannibal and Mrs. Michelle Novak exchange bewildered looks at each other and looks at Jayson again.
"Are you kidding?" Melody Haddock asked.
"No, I'm not." Jayson said, and morphs into his Super Knight suit and morphs back into his normal self.
"Oh my god." Melody Haddock shockingly. "You saved my life."
"I was conflicted about telling you guys because I didn't want to put any of you in trouble or danger." Jayson told them.
"Who else knows?" Mayor Michelle Novak asked.
"I was the first person that Jay told." Mavis replied. "And then, he and I told Frankie."
"And then, I told my Mom." Jayson added.
"You guys have to understand. Nobody can't know." Frankie said with a serious expression on his face.
"We understand, Jayson. We'll keep your secret." Curtis Haddock said.
"Meanwhile, you do what you do best; stopping the bad guys in this town." Melissa Reyes said.
"And thank you for saving my life, Jayson." Melody Haddock said.
"You're welcome." Jayson said.

Later that late afternoon, Mr. Cheetam is in his office, looking over some newspaper article drafts.
"Hello, Howard Cheetam." Super Knight greeted him in his voice modulator.
Mr. Cheetam looks at Super Knight. "Super Knight. I'm glad you're here. I assume that you're here for the interview."
"Indeed I am." Super Knight told him. "Shall we begin?"
"I just have one question; you just came out of nowhere in this town. And I have to ask; what does being a superhero mean to you?"
"Being a superhero means to fight against the people that does harm in this town. People aren't evil, some might be. Being a superhero is special to me because I get to help people and save them from danger." Super Knight told him.
"You really are a hero, Super Knight. You fight against crime and handle the bad guys with Sheriff Susan Reynolds. I appreciate what you've done. This town could use some help after all. So, thank you." Mr. Cheetam said with a small smile.
"You're welcome." Super Knight said and flies out of the window.

THE GOLDEN GRILL
That evening, Jayson, Mavis and Frankie are sitting at a table with their trays of cheese burger with curly fries and A&W cream sodas.
Frankie takes another bite out of his cheese burger and looks at Jayson and Mavis, who just looks at him. "What?"
"That's your second burger. Me and Mavis are still on our first." Jayson said, taking a bite out of his own cheeseburger.
"I do take small bites." Frankie said to him.
"Yeah, we know." Mavis said, eating a curly fry.
"Don't you think that you should lay off the cheeseburger?" Jayson asked, playfully teased him.
"Shut up, Jay." Frankie said.
"I'm just messing with you." Jayson said.
"I know." Frankie said.
Jayson, Mavis and Frankie exchange playful chuckles with each other.

AT JASON'S MOBILE HOUSE . . .
That night, In his fitness room, a shirtless Jayson wearing sweatpants, is training on a free-standing punching bag wearing a pair of boxing fingerless gloves.
Mavis slowly walks inside and looks at him. "Do you always have to work out, Jay?"
"I have to keep my strength and energy up." Jayson said. "How's everything at Silvertown Tech?"
"Everything's good." Mavis replied. "But Jay, can you do me a favor?"
Jayson stops punching the free-standing punching bag and looks at her. "Sure."
"Don't let your superhero alter ego change who you are." Mavis said to him.
"I won't." Jayson said. "I assure you that I won't let it change who I am. I'm still the same me."
"I know." Mavis said. "How do you pull-ups?"
"Can you do pull-ups?" Jayson asked.
"Yeah, sort of. I can at least try." Mavis said.
"Try to do three." Jayson said.
"Okay." Mavis said, walks over to the pull-up bar and leaps up to catch it with her hands.
"I'll count." Jayson said.
Mavis gently pulls herself up by using her muscles in her arms.
"That's one." Jayson said.
Mavis gently pulls herself up again.
"That's two." Jayson said.
"Okay, one more." Mavis said and gently pulls herself up to the pull-up bar. "Three."
"That's three." Jayson said. "You have some muscle on you."
"Yeah, I do." Mavis said, gently leaps down from the pull-up bar. "How many pull-ups can you do, Jay?"
"I can do some pull-ups. But I make sure that I don't overexert myself." Jayson said.
"Yeah, that's a good idea." Mavis said. "But also, you should take care of yourself."
"Noted." Jayson said.
"Okay, then. I'll leave you to your workout." Mavis said and walks away.
And Jayson resumes his workout, sparring on a free-standing punching bag.
