Better Halves
Zach walks Claire home before her meeting with her biological parents, Hank and Lisa. They discuss how Claire might broach the topic of her powers with them. Zach confesses that he hopes her parents do not have powers, because it makes her more special. She accuses him of flirting with her but he denies it.
Notes
- Zach's MySpace page and several comments he has made have led to a great deal of fan speculation as to his sexual orientation. However, this has not been addressed directly on the show.
