Al regresar a su rutina, cada miembro de la familia descubre una habilidad que refleja sus carencias o deseos internos:

Introduction When ABC premiered No Ordinary Family in September 2010, marketing materials immediately invited comparisons to Pixar’s The Incredibles. Both texts center on a nuclear family of four (father, mother, teenage daughter, pre-teen son) who acquire superpowers after a traumatic environmental event and must reconcile domestic dysfunction with heroic responsibility. However, while The Incredibles uses the superhero genre to critique mid-century conformity, the pilot of No Ordinary Family—titled simply “Pilot”—uses the “Los Increibles” template to examine early 21st-century suburban fragmentation. This paper argues that episode 1x01 establishes the Powells as a deconstruction of the Parr family archetype, revealing that superpowers do not fix marital and parental alienation but merely magnify existing emotional chasms.

As it turns out, Jim's CIA past has come back to haunt him. A former colleague, who had been presumed dead, has been secretly experimenting with genetic engineering. The mercenaries are after the family's DNA, which holds the key to unlocking the secrets of their extraordinary abilities.
