The roaring emotional ride that was the season four finale sets June on a new path: more of a Survivor's Journey. 

Telling a story about the French and Indian Wars from the perspective of the British prioritizes the perspective of the colonizers. 

A refreshing twist is that all the kids’ powers are…kind of useless. There’s a kid who can only move in slow motion, a kid who has every power in the world but can only use them randomly, and our main character Missy who has no powers at all. The thesis of the film seems to be that it doesn’t matter what kind of powers you have, its the way you use them, which is good for the warm and fuzzies.
