Quotes 

• George Mack : Do you know what's going on here Alex, what does Danielle want with you?

  Alex Mack : I guess I'd better tell you guys something. You know that truck driver, Dave, and he told that a couple years ago there was a GC-161 accident and some kid got doused with the chemical.

  George Mack : Yeah.

  Alex Mack : Well that's true but he didn't tell you that, that kid was me.

  George Mack : What do you mean it was you?

  Alex Mack : It happened on my first day of 7th grade, Annie made sure I was OK healthwise, I just have these side effects.

  Barbara Mack : What kind of side effects?

  Alex Mack : Like this.

  [uses zappers] 

  Alex Mack : And this.

  [morphs] 

  George Mack : Well why didn't you tell us?

  Alex Mack : Because we thought if you found out, that you'd lose your job and you'd tell Danielle and they'd come after me and cut me up, I don't know we just thought it was best.

  Barbara Mack : You thought it was best to not tell us? You thought it was better to take care of this all by yourself, what were you girls thinking about?

  Alex Mack : I'm really fine Mom, I just have these powers.

  Barbara Mack : We must be the most oblivious parents on the face of the Earth.

  Alex Mack : No, it was nothing you did, I was just really careful with them you know.

  George Mack : Didn't we bring you up with the understanding that you could tell us anything, anytime? I just don't understand, Alex we could have helped you, we could have been there for you. And I could have stopped Danielle a long time ago.

  Alex Mack : I'm sorry Dad, but it really wasn't that bad. You probably can't understand this but it was actually kind of fun.

  George Mack : Maybe it was Alex, but look at where we are now.
