Nerd or Hacker?

Nerd or Hacker? is the third episode of the first season of Mercury Rising: The Series.

Synopsis
An unexpected earthquake nearly collapses the power grid in Chicago as Simon and Jeffries continue to run from Simon's semi-deranged older brother Peter. But, this still doesn't keep Simon from trying to work his wonders on the grid when he finds a computer, and uncharacteristically fails. The power grid collapses, plunging Chicago into darkness just as the remnants of Hurricane Arlene bear down on the beseiged and beaten city.
