Kyle XY: Overheard
(S01E09) Kyle and the rest get a little closer to the mystery of his origins, and the tension ramps up here in the final episode before the season finale. Last week we left off in a secret underground lair, where evil agents of "the company", are surprised to discover that the "subject" (Kyle) they had believed terminated two months ago, is still alive. Kyle's torn between his curiosity and of heeding Foss' s advice to keep what little he knows of his past secret in order to protect his foster family, the Tragers. His feigned new lack of curiosity in his origins leads his foster Mom and therapist, Nicole, to fear he is regressing, and is beyond her help.
Josh Trager bounces back and forth, thinking that everyone is talking about him: first the girl he likes, and then his parents. He keeps trying to tap Kyle's superpowers to help him out, attempting to turn Kyle into his own personal superboy. Actually, Kyle doesn't have super hearing, but he has discovered that when he concentrates he can focus in on a distant sound. It's all brain power, and he spends most of this episode applying it in various situations -- but at a cost. Meanwhile, Lori's Dad, Stephen Trager, keeps giving her grief about bad-boy Declan, and she tells him to trust her -- even if he can't quite trust Declan. Foss keeps working behind the scenes to protect Kyle, still looking evil as he lurks about, though, as we learned last week, he's been one of the good guys all along. Kyle and Declan sneak into Foss's apartment and find the screens he's been using to spy on and keep tabs on Kyle and everyone surrounding him. What Declan observes on the screens freaks him out, seems there's been a slight misunderstanding about which of the girls on the show he actually likes.
After busting into Foss's place, Klye and Declan casually head off to the carnival. Lori and Josh end up there too, as does Foss and the new agent assigned to terminate Kyle. But before the showdown, Kyle finally has a chance to be alone with Amanda on a carousel. Long story short, Kyle's learns a little more and collapses. The disruption thwarts the assassination attempt. At the hospital, Kyle's MRI seems to reveals that he's perfectly normal -- but the company had gotten to the doctor first and suppressed the actual results. Anyway, for a cliffhanger this week, the company has come up with a whole new tack and how to get ahold of Kyle. LOTS of ground to cover in the finale. It'll be interesting to see how much they reveal, and how much they'll make us wait till next summer for.
