Misfits

Nathan, Kelly, Simon, Alisha, and Curtis were expecting their community service to be boring, but after a freak thunderstorm they discover that it is anything but. Bestowed with strange powers, the five very different teens realize they have a lot more to worry about than just picking up litter, especially as they discover that they are not the only ones who have been given strange powers. Secrets will be revealed, feelings brought to the surface, and relationships formed and broken. But hey, its only 12 weeks of community service; what's the worst that could happen?

Alex recovers from his operation and is followed home by Emma, a woman who tells him that his donor, Neil, had the power to rid people of their super-powers through having sex with him, and persuades him to rid her of her unwanted gift, the ability to cause accidents. He reluctantly complies. Back at the Centre Finn meets Lucy, one of a group of Scouts, who seems attracted to him but the group are in fact Satanists who force him to join them as an agent of the devil and commit demonic acts. When holy water fails to cure there is only one solution - Alex takes him from behind, which lifts the curse and saves Jess's life but lands him on Community Service. Meanwhile Rudy 2, against the advice of the original Rudy, joins a self-help group for those possessed of super-powers . Its leader, Maggie, is an elderly lady who knits the future, in Rudy's case a jumper which foretells that he and his friends will become super-heroes.
