TV show description:
Bo (Johnny Sequoyah), a young girl, has had gifts she could neither fully understand nor control — like levitation, telekinesis, the ability to control nature, and to see the future. Now that she’s 10 years old, her powers have become stronger and the threat from malevolent forces — those that would use her abilities to control the world — has grown more dangerous.
With her life and future in jeopardy, Bo’s protector, Milton Winter (Delroy Lindo), turns to an unlikely source to keep her safe — Tate (Jake McLaughlin), a wrongfully imprisoned death row inmate who’s lost his will.
Tate and Bo begin an extraordinary journey, one in which trust must be earned. On the run and traveling from city to city, every place they stop and everyone they meet are changed forever. They have to keep going to stay one step ahead of the evil forces after Bo’s power.
Other characters include Channing (Jamie Chung), an associate of Winter’s; Skouras (Kyle MacLachlan), Winter’s former partner who’s after Bo for unknown reasons; and Corey (Arian Moayed).
Episode #12 — Second Chance
Dr. Skouras meets with Winter to warn him about Danni, his promising young rogue telepath who’s determined to destroy Bo. Danni has the power to kill Bo, but she’s a ticking time bomb. She will succumb to her illness before long, and she’ll be trying desperately to take down Bo on her way out. Winter reluctantly agrees to help Skouras, but there’s a problem: Winter has no idea where Bo and Tate are.
Meanwhile, Bo and Tate make their way across the country toward Mexico. Tate urges Bo to use her powers to procure a winning lottery ticket, ensuring a happy, comfortable future for years to come. Bo has a vision in which she sees her mother, Nina, who tells Bo to ask the convenience store cashier about her charm bracelet. Bo talks to the cashier, who turns out to be Danni’s former best friend. By touching the charm bracelet, Bo gains insight into Danni’s troubled past. She watches as Danni inadvertently kills her own brother after losing control of her powers.
Winter devises a plan to lure in Danni: he’ll to use Channing as live bait to draw Danni out. He hypnotizes Channing to implant a psychic signal that will attract Danni. The plan works perfectly. Danni arrives at the hideout and Skouras’ team fills the room with gas, but instead of succumbing to the chemicals, Danni charges out of the room in a rage and attacks Channing and Winter, torturing them to extract Bo’s location. Danni realizes that Winter has been monitoring Bo by tracking Tate’s cell phone. Now she can find and destroy Bo, thanks to Winter.
Bo and Tate visit Danni’s old home to learn more about their adversary. In Danni’s room, they discover evidence that Danni did, in fact, kill her brother. Bo feels that Danni deserves a second chance, but Tate doesn’t think she can be saved. Unfortunately, the conversation is cut short when Danni bursts into the room. Tate attempts to protect Bo, but Danni easily dispatches him by slamming him against a wall. Before Bo can react, Danni creates a havoc of wind and electrical energy, snatches Bo and locks Tate in the room.
Meanwhile, Skouras heads to the Orchestra facility to wipe the hard drives clean. If Danni’s actions cause the story to go public, the last thing he needs is a media storm around his top secret government project. Winter and Channing find Tate at Danni’s old home, and Winter has a good idea where Danni will be headed with Bo: Orchestra.
Just as Skouras finishes wiping the hard drives clean, Danni enters with Bo. Tate, Winter and Channing arrive at the facility moments later to find Bo and Skouras tied up, and Danni surprises them. Winter tries to talk Danni out of her plot, but she refuses to comply. Instead, she locks the doors, trapping them inside. After a failed attempt to break Danni’s psychic bond and force the doors open, Bo sees her mother, Nina, again. Nina tells Bo that she can save everyone, including Danni, with kindness. After the pep talk from Nina, Bo finds the strength to force the doors open.
Winter, Channing, Skouras, Tate and Bo charge into the courtyard to find Danni, more enraged than ever and surrounded by a tornado of fire. Just as she’s about to unleash her fury on the group, Bo walks through her fire tornado and tells Danni that her brother forgives her. It’s all Danni needed to hear. She extinguishes her flames and collapses to the ground, where she succumbs to her ailments and dies.
Bo has saved the day, but the celebration is short-lived. Winter tells Bo to leave with Tate immediately, before the police arrive. Sadly, this is the end of the line for Winter and Bo. If she’s to be safe, they can never see one another again. After Tate and Bo depart, Skouras tells Winter to flee as well. He’ll take the blame for this. Bo and Tate hit the road again en route to the quiet, peaceful life that Bo deserves. (courtesy NBC.)

What do you think? Do you like the Believe TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I did not realize this show had been canceled. I have been waiting and looking for the new season. Best show I have seen in a long time. I was so into it. Why did you cancel? I am deeply disappointed in your decision. Won’t you reconsider? Please give us something worth watching.
Shame on you.Will not get into any more of your shows ,Beleive had Ressurection beat.All the people I KNOW WAS JUST REALLY GETTING INTO IT SO LONG NBC
I’m really sad that this show was cancelled. I love Bo and her relationship with her dad, Tate. And I really looked forward to seeing this show every week. This is such a huge disappointment!!!
I am really disappointed that Believe was cancelled. Everyone I know watched it. The only problem was that it was on the same time as the program Ressurection and everyone wanted to watch that as well. Ressurection is back. I wish there was some way this program could be brought back.
Please do not cancel!!!!!!! It is a great show and we can let the whole family watch it.
I also dvr it so I can watch the shows over!!!’ Keep it on!
I can’t believe it! The show was a hit and everyone I know was looking forward to the new season. I even had my dvr set to record it if I had to work so that I didn’t miss any of it. Why would they cancel a great show?
I am really disappointed. The show was looking really interesting. Should really be brought back!!!!!
It is unfortunate that NBC does this continuously whenever they get a show that a great deal of the public like along comes their worthless overlord and cancel it. This was a great family show we looked to it every week. It’s no wonder NBC is on the bottom when it comes to ratings, don’t know a great show when they have it. It’s bad when you’re even losing to ABC in primetime.
Wow! NBC you have done it again; cancelled a “Winner”. Great Show, tremendous story line, and very good acting. No wonder you are a 3rd rate network
Thank God for CBS and their executives who have great drama shows (like Believe is) i.e.
Person of Interest, Elementary, Scorpion and on and on….. See you later NBC and your bunch of “knuckle head executive losers”!!!!!!!
now what will our family all watch together? it was a great show.
Believe was a great show why would NBC do something as stupid, as cancelling it?
We love this show!!! We are going to truly miss it. Please reconsider.
Believe was the only show worth watching on NBC. Tried other shows on that network. Take my advise, DONT BOTHER
The show should have stayed on or at lest finished out with the second season .anyone notice that the really good ones have been getting canceled for the last 20 years. Why does Murdock and the rest think they know what the people want ? We are the ones that pay the the cable companies , which buy the way has more buy this junk Chanel’s than anything. Back to the issue here, can’t be because of time slots as they state since people do have the choice of recording now ! So how can they even determine how many… Read more »
I’m really pissed with the decision to cancel this show. I liked the story line and it’s a shame to cancel such a great show. Shame on you! !
