History WMG / TowerPrep

[[WMG:The Gnomes are [[Series/LandOfTheLost Sleestaks]]]]

They're deconstructing IJustWantToBeSpecial. Not only are they experimenting with giving people powers, they're studying the psychological effects -- seeing which students decide "IJustWantToBeNormal" ''and mean it'', which ones turn into {{Smug Super}}s, which ones [[GullibleLemmings blindly accept what they're told]] or try to ferret out the truth or escape... The 'disease' in "Election" is simply testing their ability to depower anyone they eventually judge unfit of [[ComesGreatResponsiblity the role they're attempting to groom them for]].

* What does this mean? What wild mass guess are you making here? Is this about the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' cartoon that Creator/PaulDini had nothing to do with?

*** Ian rips it's head off and doesn't care.

The Public School Teacher (whom kicked Ian Archer out of his old school) would halved learned that Ian has special powers, and realized that Ian is a freak or a monster. He would halved believed that Ian was breaded in the Soviet Union, and enhanced with these powers to over throw the United States, and would halved done everything in his power to kill Ian Archer.

The first thing people might say is "Wait, how could it function in a world without power?" Well, if the government can come up with a Tower that is blackout-proof, then it could just as easily have created a school that is not affected by the blackout. In fact, the blackout could work to the school's advantage, because it would be isolated, hidden, and the staff could use horror stories of the outside world to scare people into staying in school.

** I know Dini had nothing to do with it, I'm trying to say that maybe they're superheroes in training. But not on a superman level, more like.. {{Batman}} with a useful, yet not crazy powerful ability.. So, being prepared to be a team of superheroes i'd suppose..

* Confirmed, [[spoler: escaping is a test to see if they are good enough to work for headmaster, also the disease seems to be right as the girl who makes the new improved disease is recruited by Nurse and headmaster to show them how to make it.]]

the music video for Love Like Woe just really reminded me of Tower Prep the first time i saw it

* What about Ray's strength or that super fast kid from episode 2? What powers could their parents have had to make them? In fact,a lot of the kids' powers seem like they must come from interesting combinations. Ian's preflex is basically precognition + enhanced reflexes = SpiderSense. Ray must have inherited enhanced endurance and something else to get super strong.

[[WMG:The escape attempt was part of a XanatosGambit on the part of one of the four to demoralize the other three, particularly Ian.]]

The goal being to force people with complementary powers to hook up. Ian and CJ, preflex with great attention to detail would be a closer-quarters combat powerhouse. Suki+Gabe, ability to change your voice to mimic anyone, and the ability to compel people to do what you want. Every generation coming closer to real supers.

*** Alternatively, if Cornelius' backstory about World War I is true, that would make him over 100 in the picture with Ian. He could be his great-grandfather.Or,(hate to state the obvious)Ian is adopted.

[[spoiler: Whisper 120 has said that there are 7 people who know that Headmaster is good.]] The mysterious man said that [[spoiler: He will see Ian two times after the escape.]] What if he knew that there is a plan that Ian is a part of?
