Extraordinary teen John Smith (Pettyfer) is a fugitive on the run from ruthless enemies sent to destroy him. Changing his identity, moving from town to town with his guardian Henri (Olyphant), John is always the new kid with no ties to his past. In the small Ohio town he now calls home, John encounters unexpected, life-changing events-his first love (Agron), powerful new abilities and a connection to the others who share his incredible destiny.

John:
[Reaching for book] What's this?


Sarah:
Umm... That is kind of private, actually.


John:
It's amazing!


Sarah:
Ok, that's enough.


John:
[Flipping through book] What, you're allowed to look at everyone else-take our pictures- and we're not allowed see you?

[pause]


John:
Seems like you want to run away.


Sarah:
Just be happy when I can get out of here.


John:
I don't know - been to a lot of places...


Sarah:
You don't have to give me that "there's no place like home" speech, I've heard it.


John:
No, No - You can go wherever you want. See whatever you want to but, um... a place is only as good as the people you know in it. I... I think this is a pretty good place.

Continuity: During the scene where John throws the football back at Mark's friend, Sarah is just getting her camera out and doesn't take pictures of John until after he throws the football. However, when John is looking at her website later, there are a sequence of photos of him throwing the football.
