Wonder Man Season 1 Episode 3 Synopsis

Cleary is unable to find evidence of Simon's powers from his hacked computer. He tells Slattery that he needs to go to Simon's childhood home in Pacoima, Los Angeles, for the birthday party of Simon's mother Martha, using a wiretap to record his conversations. Slattery convinces Simon to take him and is introduced to Martha, Simon's brother Eric, and other relatives. While Martha is proud of Simon, Eric is dismissive of his career and Slattery finds that none of the other relatives are close to Simon or know much about him. Martha tells Slattery that Simon has always been lonely and she is happy that he has made a friend. Simon argues with Eric and unintentionally destroys part of the kitchen which Eric recently had renovated. Simon and Slattery leave the party, and Simon states that Slattery is the first person outside his family to know about his powers. He considers whether Eric is right and it is time for him to give up acting. Slattery decides to destroy the recording from his wiretap, just as Janelle calls to inform them that they have both been given call backs for roles in Wonder Man.
