IMO, at least, now Jan has made the decision she will tell Jackie at the next opportunity. Because of that, I think it is inevitable and a narrative necessity that Jackie must find out on her own and soon.
Or possibly, now all the times she tries to tell her, something interrupts it, until much, much later Jackie finds out on her own. Thereby allowing more time to pass, more missions to happen, and creating more drama between the two when the truth finally comes to light.
There is no way that Jackie would ever believe her mom unless she literally spent the entire night on the beat together. So the only way she’ll be able to tell her is if Jackie has seen proof that it’s Janice in the costume.
Gaah, SO CLOSE!
Yet so far…!
I’m just waiting for Mark to up and say, “So, Jan. How’d the superheroing with Jackie go?”
As long as it’s not while she’s riding the bike; that’d be an epic wreck, there.
Well done, young Padawan. To paraphrase the book of Matthew, βThis is my beloved daughter, in whom I am well pleased.β
Haha! Nice one. π

Don’t do it!
It’s the lesser of two evils. Can you imagine how complicated things would get if Jackie develops a crush on ‘Miss Melee’? π―
A big part of this also….

Argh! Almost! Way to go impressing your mom though Jackie, ya done good kid!
Aww man, so close.
I like her expression when she realizes Jackie is asleep, those tears of joy were gone pretty fast.
