Well, that was quite a way to end the hour.
Naomi spends much of Naomi Season 1 Episode 2 just trying to wrap her head around the fact that her whole life has changed overnight. And can you blame her?
It's not easy to think about your identity and who you are changing in such a profound way, especially when you're navigating your teenage years, which we know is hard enough as it is without the added pressure of having superpowers.
But Naomi can't escape her destiny. Though that doesn't mean she's quite ready to embrace it either.
Naomi's reluctance to explore her powers and readily believe everything Dee explains to her makes perfect sense when you think about it. How would you react if someone you didn't know told you everything you thought you knew about yourself was potentially a lie?
Sure, the evidence is all around her, but it's scary...

"The Resident" (2011)
Directed by Antti Jokinen
Released by Image Entertainment
This actually isn't the first time Hilary Swank has seen one of her films go direct to DVD after the films "Red Dust" and "Birds of America" suffered the same fate, but surely there was more riding on this horror film from the resurgent Hammer Films about a recently separated doctor who learns her Brooklyn loft isn't quite as wonderful as she thought it would be. "Secretary" screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson co-wrote this film, which co-stars Christopher Lee, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Lee Pace.
"The Mikado" (1939)
Directed by Victor Schertzinger
Released by Criterion Collection
"Topsy-Turvy" (1999)
Directed by Mike Leigh
