Jimmy's Return

Jimmy's Return is the Season 4 finale of Static Shock that aired on May 22, 2004 on Kid's WB.
==Plot==
In The Dakota Detention Center for Juveniles Jimmy Osgood is seen writing on a scrap piece of paper about how his day went so far, how the 7 months he spent in juvie felt like an eternity, and how there is only a year before he get's released, until suddenly a guard came into his cell and told him that he was being released Jimmy is shocked by this news thinking that he was going to stay in there for another year with the guard telling him that he was let out early for good behavior and that his parents were outside waiting for him.
Jimmy was silent through most of the ride with his parents until he asked them if anyone will forgive him and if they forgive him for what he had done. With his parents reassuring him that they forgive him for what he had done and that any true friend of his would as well. Tomorrow, Static and Gear are seen fighting Carmen Dillo and when they rushed to school after defeating him once more, a newspaper falls on Static's head with the headline "Teenager Who Brings Gun Into Community Center Get's Released From Juvie Early Due To Good Behavior" Gear feels a little uneasy about it citing the fact that Jimmy was the one who was responsible for shooting him in the leg. Static reassures him that Jimmy is their friend and that shooting him in the leg was an accident. When they get to school Virgil hugs Jimmy tightly and tells him how much he's missed him with Jimmy saying that he missed him too until the bell rang and they went to their classes, after school Jimmy is seen talking to Nick Connor, Kevin Greene, and Ray Sanderson about hanging out together at Burger Fool to catch up after everything, then Virgil asks them what they are talking about then they explain that they were going to hang out at Burger Fool when Virgil says that he was going to invite Jimmy to his house, Jimmy then thinks about what he's gonna do until he was suddenly transported to an unknown location via a portal...
When Nick asks Virgil and Richie if they had seen Jimmy, they both shake their heads with Nick stating nervously that he and Jimmy share all of the same classes together and that he hadn't seen Jimmy through all of them and that he's really worried about him with Virgil and Richie stating that they will go and find Jimmy but that he needed to stay home for his own safety. After of which Virgil and Richie become Static and Gear and they start looking for Jimmy, meanwhile Jimmy has a flashback of the first time Ebon had kidnapped him before the Big Bang even happened and torturing his brother, Johnny, while Ebon taunts him about unlike last time he is his, once and for all. Static and Gear eventually find him in an abandoned barn with him tied up to a chair looking even more panicked than anyone else that they had saved from kidnapping with Static pinning Ebon to the ground and Gear untying Jimmy.
After everything, Virgil and Richie walk with Jimmy, to his house where they ask what Ebon meant by "unlike last time" and Jimmy explains to them his backstory about how Ebon, before he was Ebon kidnapped him and his brother, then proceeded to torture his brother and forced him to watch until he died and how all of that lead up to him attempting a mass shooting, but there was one part of it that stood out to them the most, the part that said that Jimmy spied on Static while he was fighting villains as a way to learn when and where to kill all of the Meta-Breed, while they knew that what he did was wrong, Static couldn't help but think with those skills in both strategic planning and spying that he would make a great secret agent and so Static made Jimmy his own Secret Agent but on the condition that he should only use his skills for good and he agreed.

==Background information==
===Home video releases===
*Static Shock: The Complete Fouth Season (DVD)
===Production notes===
*The scene where Virgil says that he can relate to Jimmy losing his brother because of gang violence as his mom also died from gang violence...but you already know that cuts directing to the scene from the episode "Jimmy" where Virgil says "No I hate guns, my mom was killed by one, it was an accident, but, listen I gotta go!".
*Due to it being a kids show the actual torture that Johnny went through isn't actually shown, but his screams are heard, through.
===Trivia===
*Jimmy's backstory is the same as his in the fanfiction "Jimmy's Visit with Dr. Franklin", this is because theautisticrebel is the same person who wrote the fanfiction.
