“Frozen out“ Release date: 02-23-02 Plot: The holiday season is upon Dakota, and Virgil is trying to balance attending various parties for his friends of different faiths. Complications arise when buildings such as the power plant and mall begin to be covered in thick sheets of ice. The cause is a Bang Baby named Permafrost, who has extremely powerful cryokinetic abilities. It is eventually revealed that Permafrost is a homeless girl named Maureen Conner; she suffers from mental problems stemming from her mother’s death and stepfather’s neglect. Maureen’s trauma makes her unable to control her powers, especially when people ignore her when she asks for money and food. Static eventually finds Maureen and, rather than fighting her, offers her aid. Maureen calms down and accepts help from a local pastor, which in turn teaches Virgil the true meaning of the holidays.
