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?
BELIEVE IS THE BEST GO AHEAD AND CANCEL THE OTHERS BUT THIS SHOW HAS DEPTHPLEASE KEEP IT REAL AND ON THE AIR
OKAY PLEASE POST
Please do not cancel this program. ..especially in the first season…give people a chance to hear about it, tune in and enjoy it for crying out loud….I am going to stop watching any new NBC shows as this is just getting to be a pattern so there is no point in even watching the pilot episode of an NBC show because more often than not NBC will pull the plug just when you are getting invested in the show…totally infuriating…there are so few actually entertaining family shows on tv anymore and when we finally get one they don’t even give… Read more »

Supposedly, reliable sources are reporting that beginning May 25th, the last 4 eps will begin airing. It could help if ratings are high enough.
Please post on Twitter #bringbackbelieve
Ratings for Rosemary’s Baby were pretty bad. They never learn.
ridiculous, both my husband and I looked forward to this show. guess people don’t BELIEVE in goodness and a feel good type show. they need to rethink and bring this show back.
NOOOO! PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL! I love this show and it has great values, opposed to majority of the shows on television these days!
This is a good TV series. You have people trying to do the right things, like helping people, versus people who are only for self gain. Clearly we all need more of this taught to young and old.
Here is yet another reason why the networks are failing and will be cut themselves. Believe was a great show just getting started. Keep with your traditions of axing the best shows on air and continue on your trek to lay with the dinosaurs NBC.
Do not cancel this show!! What is wrong with NBC, they are cutting off all the good shows. I am going to have to stop watching NBC!!!
NBC is crazy to cancel the show. I HATE it when they cancel an unfinished story. They clearly DO NOT cater the the people who don’t need graphic violence for sex to be entertained. NBC needs to widen their demographics!
This is crazy. Another decent show the entire family can watch that teaches doing good and winning rather than violence. I am so upset!! My family and I love this show!! What is wrong with you people???? Put this back on!! Trust, we can tune to another station or just shut down tv if u put another stupid reality show on in place of “Believe:. I see all the shows I like and watch seem to be getting cancelled. I guess if it isn’t bloody and gory and killing and torture it is no good in your opinion!! There are… Read more »
I love this show! My family and I look forward to watching every week! There are many other shows on Sunday nights, on other networks, but we chose Believe over all the other choices! Please reconsider and bring Believe back!
One of the best shows on TV… Please don’t cancel this show… I believe….
