Flora's life--and her outlook--forever. 

Transcription:

FLORA: Superheroes stand watch when danger closes in, and save those

in need. But they have one thing in common... They never show up in the

real world......until Ulysses. Every superhero comes to us with a purpose. 

We don’t always see it at first, because we don’t always know where to

look.  PHYLLIS BUCKMAN: Flora! What is this?

FLORA: "I am Ulysses." "Born anew." Holy unanticipated occurrences!

Did you type this? He’s a superhero. 

WILLIAM SPIVER: What?

FLORA: Do you have any enemies? 

MILLER: I’m here about the squirrel.

FLORA: Danger lurks everywhere.

GEORGE: Is he? FLORA: He’s flying. 

There was a change in the air... and the world was filling with excitement.

GEORGE: Go-go-go-go! Who’s hungry? Pull it now. Come on!Ulysses!

so the universe sent us...Ulysses. FLORA Can you talk?
