16-year old John Locke gets beaten up and stuffed into a locker at his high school. The school's team is the http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifCowin Heights Knights. His science teacher, Gellert, helps him out of the locker and they go to his office to talk. Before he closes the locker door we can see the Geronimo Jackson album cover as well as a photo of Sir Richard Francis Burton, an English explorer, translator, writer, soldier, orientalist, ethnologist, linguist, poet, hypnotist, fencer and diplomat (for more info, check out the
wiki page).
Gellert tells John that Mittelos Bioscience is interested in him coming to their summer camp. He gives John a brochure but John doesn't want to go. He says that things like science camp is why he gets stuffed in lockers. When Gellert tells him he'll never be a superhero, John replies with his catch phrase, "Don't tell me what I can't do!."
Why did Mittelos want John to come to his camp? Was this another test to see if he was ready for his destiny?
