Lucifer reveals that Simone fought for her to stay but lost and Kira is dead. Lucifer’s announcement causes Zoie to get upset resulting into her powers activating and her appearance changes. Lucifer enjoys the sight and calls Zoie "His Greatest Creation” but Zoie doesn’t care and wants to leave. Lucifer forbids Zoie from leaving Hell but Zoie decides to make a deal with the Devil. Lucifer decides to lie and tells Zoie that he will take away her immortality where she will get the chance to return to Earth and live but will have to report back to him after her death where she will have to live in Hell for eternity. Zoie agrees and Lucifer allows her to return back to Earth. Instead of taking away her immortality, Lucifer erases her memories of himself and the deadly sins which shocks Beelzebub.

With no memory of her demonic family, Zoie travels to Doveport, Massachusetts and spends the next six months in depression. While there, she creates her dream home from her imagination through her powers of mentifery. A month later, Zoie begins to turn to alcoholism and becomes an alcoholic. She isolates herself from people out of fear of killing them. A few months later, Zoie attempted suicide but woke up the following morning as if nothing happened making Zoie realize that she was immortal. Zoie decides to try to make things better for herself and celebrates Christmas alone by telling herself that she will be okay.

Months later, Zoie leaves her home wearing hair and clothing to hide her true identity and visits a store where she meets Tobias Stone. She witnesses a teen knock over Tobias personal belongings and begins to choke the teen from afar but is interrupted by the Tobias speaking. She realizes that Tobias is not only blind but homeless and decides to help him. Not wanting to be helped, Tobias rudely shuts Zoie down. Fed up with Tobias’ ego, Zoie asks him to at least eat something. Understanding that Zoie meant no harm, Tobias agrees.

Zoie takes Tobias to her home, feeds him, washes his clothes, and allows him to stay over. They take the time to get to know one another over dinner and learn each other’s birthdays, ages, and more. As Tobias begins to ask about Superhumans and Zoie’s family, Zoie begins to fee uncomfortable and changes the subject. Noticing the change of the subject, Tobias doesn’t press for more information. Helping Tobias to the couch, Tobias thanks Zoie and Zoie says goodnight.

Days pass and Zoie sits outside and reads a book with Tobias next to her. Wanting to know what everything looks like in the area, Tobias asks Zoie to describe it to him. Zoie tells Tobias that they’re located in a field surrounded by red flowers. Tobias asks Zoie why she helped him to which she tells him was due to loneliness. Tobias asks why Zoie is lonely and questions her family before bringing up a boyfriend but Zoie reveals that she will never love again. Zoie tells Tobias the story of Chris and Phoebe’s betrayal as a song plays signaling her dark side rising again. Zoie confesses to blaming herself for the reason their relationship didn’t work out and still blames herself for it. She reveals that both are dead but doesn’t tell how they died. Tobias decides to open up a bit and tells Zoie that he argued with his father over money the night of his accident. Tobias reveals that his father was a drug addict and the wreck took away his sight and ability to walk. He lived with family members until he could walk again then moved to Doveport to start fresh. As they sit there in silence, Tobias tells Zoie that the field would be better with yellow flowers to go with the red ones. Zoie uses her power to change some of the flowers yellow although Tobias could not see it.

Days later, Tobias and Zoie are sitting inside due to the rain. Tobias asks Zoie to dance but is disappointed when he steps on Zoie’s foot. Now frustrated, Tobias pulls away but is stopped by Zoie. Zoie uses her puppetry powers to control Tobias allowing him to dance with her. As they continue to dance, both realize that they truly like one another. As the dance ends, Tobias realizes that Zoie controlled his body and asks if she’s superhuman to which she confirms.

The next day, Tobias asks questions about Zoie’s powers and she truthfully answers. Tobias promises to not tell anyone and asks if she would let him drive again. Later, Zoie takes Tobias to an abandoned airport and lets him behind the wheel. Tobias drives the car blindly as Zoie controls the wheel with her powers. As she stares at him, she realizes that her feelings for Tobias has quickly grown to love. Tobias thanks Zoie for showing him how to live despite his disadvantages. The two embrace one another but do not kiss as red and yellow flowers bloom around the dead airport.

The next morning, Zoie looks outside to see orange flowers in the field combining the red and yellow flowers that she had created. Tobias and Zoie walk in the field and Zoie questions Tobias as to why he hasn’t contacted his family since being with her. Tobias reveals that he planned to call them but he didn’t want them to take him from cloud nine and pulls him back to reality hinting that he’s happy with Zoie. Zoie reassures that she’s not going anywhere and would give him the world. Tobias decides to sit down in the field of flowers brining Zoie down with him. Zoie asks Tobias if she can try something to which he agrees and the two finally kiss. Zoie pulls away as Tobias watches her shocked. Tobias reveals that he can see her seemingly confirming that Zoie accidentally healed him during the kiss. The two kiss one another again and fall into the flowers as a rainbow forms around the field.

That night, Zoie realizes that there’s more to her that she didn’t understand and that she had no control over her powers. She realizes that she loves Tobias but hadn’t told him all of the truth about herself. The next morning, Tobias wakes up to an empty bed with no sight of Zoie. He catches Zoie staring out of the window from the couch. Zoie asks Tobias how he slept to which he tells her that he slept well. Realizing that he’s lying, Zoie calls him out. Tobias gets upset and questions Zoie. Zoie tells Tobias that darkness lives inside of her and he isn’t safe. She begs for him to leave before it’s too late but Tobias decides to stay.

In Hell, Nate demands to know what happened with Zoie. Lucifer confesses to sending Zoie back to Earth but the rest of the seven deadly sins want to know why. Angrily, Nate demands for answers. Lucifer reveals that he allows her to live on Earth because she wanted too and he wants her to harm again so she can return to Hell without a fight. He reveals that Zoie's power has allowed her to bestow herself and others abilities. Jokingly, Harry remarks that she’s more powerful than Nate to which Lucifer confirms that she is.

Tobias and Zoie lay in bed as Tobias questions Zoie about her white hair color. She tells him that it changed when her powers were wild and Tobias realizes that Zoie was there when Superhumans were created. As Zoie prepares to tell Tobias the truth, she is interrupted by a crash. Tobias and Zoie step outside to see Nate. Tobias scolds Zoie for threatening him but soon realizes that the he would cause problems. Due to Lucifer erasing the memories of her family in Hell, Zoie does not remember Nate. Zoie demands Tobias to go inside but Tobias refuses. Nate squeezes Zoie’s car until it’s formed into a small ball showcasing one of his abilities. Zoie holds Tobias’ hand as Nate’s hand lights on fire. Tobias watches as Zoie turns into Wrath. Before he can react, Zoie pushes him away and he watches from afar ignoring the pain in his hand from which Zoie held. Nate throws fire towards Zoie but Zoie grabs a lightning bolt. Zoie throw it at Nate but Nate isn’t affected. He runs towards Zoie and takes away her ability of weather control then summons a lightning bolt to attack Tobias.

Zoie runs to Tobias and listens to his heartbeat weaken. She reveals that she tried to give him powers but it didn’t work. Tobias passes away in her arms after thanking her to which she responds by telling him goodnight, the same thing they said to one another after their first night together. Grieving, Zoie begins to make Nate feel human and takes away his powers giving herself back the ability of weather control. Zoie breaks his bones before stopping the heartbeat that she created specifically for him so he can feel the same way she felt when he killed Tobias. Creating a grave, Zoie places Nate inside and declares that he will remain there until she says otherwise before covering the grave and leaving.

The real Nate watches Zoie from a distance and is revealed to have used his powers to create an illusion making Zoie believe that she was really in battle with him. He deactivates all of Zoie’s powers and leaves.

Two months later, Zoie now lives in Seattle and thinks of Tobias. Zoie realizes that Tobias taught her to never underestimate life and to experience it without limit. Now powerless and wanting to know the whereabouts of Kira’s body and Simone’s location, Zoie decides to stop hiding and turns herself in to police where she is sent to the SN Organization and tortured. Tobias wakes up in a hospital bed and discovers that he is alive. He is greeted by a doctor and nurse and learns that he is now superhuman confirming that Zoie’s did in fact give him powers. Tobias relaxes as smoke from his hands distinguishes. The doctor tells Tobias that someone made an anonymous call to the police to report his body but he was transported from a hospital to a lab after he noticed the smoke coming from his hands and his body temperature.
