The story
In West Texas, Roy Tomlin and his childhood friend Lucas hear an Amber alert for 8-year-old Alton Meyer and his reported abductor, Roy, while the boy reads comic books in the car.
As Alton's powers grew, his mother Sarah abandoned him, and members of the Ranch have been raising him, with Pastor Meyer adopting him, from his biological father, Roy, who later rescued his son from the Ranch.
Members of the Ranch seem to know this location, but the FBI is desperately trying to figure out where the trio are headed.
