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?
You guys are either CLOISTERED OR JUST PL
AIN STUPID. The show was great. Try bringing back the Neilsons!!!
I really really liked the show and I am so sorry they cancelled it. It was original and not copying another show story line putting iron another channel and calling it new
I was really surprised that believe was canceled it was one of best series by I liked it same as games of thrones I think only shows that could compete was extant and blacklist plot too story reminded me of the series heroes. I wonder why it was canceled.
Michael Haynes they canceled it because ratings rapidly fell. It was estimated first episode had 10 million viewers. Fast forward to the 9th episode. The estimation there was only 3 to 4 million viewers. That would be why.
I couldn’t agree more with the majority of comments. This was a great good ol fashion family show, where good vs evil and good usually prevailed . With all the other crap out there, it was a refreshing intense new show ! Bring it back !!!
Great show. I’m really bummed they canceled it.
Seems everything great that’s got good story gets canceled cause the world don’t want people to care or love, they want this world to hate and show anger show our children to shoot drugs inbetween toes and have sex with different people or affairs on TV that seems ok or stupid drama **** that nobody cares about but still watch the bs… Bring back the damb TV show.. Stop taken all the good stuff away… Take all the crap off TV that has violence and hate and crime and rape and torture
I so agree with you.
well I guess good shows don’t make as much money as sex and vilolence. This sucks. Seems everytime I get into a series, it’s cancelled.
I am so tired of NBC taking away shows I realy like. I primarily watch NBC so many shows I have enjoyed. But it never fails every time I start to like a show they get rid of it. I really like believe and think you should bring it back. Felt the same way about heros, chuck and even camp seemed funny and I would have continued watching it. Please for the love if god stop canceling the good shows .
I can not believe that they took the show off I loved it I wish they’d bring it back
This was an awesome show & whoever made that decision should be fired for being an idiot…………..
1 of the only shows my whole family looked Fwd to watching every week…. : /
Maybe try letting the FAN BASE speak B4 ignorant execs. make bad choices based on “paper” rather than reality……… ;
Believe was an awesome family show please renew it!
Don’t cancel this show!!! It was awesome and made you want more. I never missed a single episode. It fresh, compelling, and keep you wanting more. I hated waiting till the next week because I wanted more. So please give it a second chance!!!
That sucks! I was looking forward to the 2nd season.
I loved that show. Disappointed it was canceled
Take a lesson from Firefly. This show “Believe” is great, great, great.
Oh, I know! That’s the secret. Cancel it, you get a cult following and everyone buys the box sets, including, never aired episodes. Hey, how about a movie called “Tate”!!
