Wonder Man Season 1 Episode 2 Synopsis

After he was kidnapped from prison and held by Xu Wenwu's Ten Rings criminal organization, Slattery returns to Hollywood intent on living up to his mother's hopes for him as an actor. He is immediately arrested by the FBI and Cleary offers him the option of working for the DODC in exchange for not finishing his prison sentence. In the present, Janelle tells Simon that his Wonder Man audition impressed the casting director and he has been asked to do a self-tape audition for an independent film. Simon gets frustrated trying to film the audition himself, and seeing Vivian in an old self-tape video causes his powers to activate: his body releases an explosion of energy inside his apartment. Simon asks Slattery for help with the audition just as Cleary tells Slattery to use a device to hack Simon's computer. After unsuccessfully trying to film the audition at a self-tape studio, Slattery's apartment, and the house of Slattery's nemesis Joe Pantoliano, the pair return to Simon's apartment and film a successful take. Slattery secretly hacks Simon's computer and also discovers damage from the explosion.
