You’d want to save the 7th part for later. Just show the child emerging at the very end of episode 1 so you can have a cliffhanger.
Episode 2 is where the laser happens as part of the unethical experiments and the child discovering / being forced to develop their powers. You’d want a B plot and maybe even a C plot running during this episode so it’s not just 30 minutes of child lasering though.
The Laser scene could be used as Segway to the experiments, introducing some of the other kids (not evil yet) as subplot B and even maybe the mother of Lois lane (Journalist too) as C Plot (including rescue of her and her daughter in the finale by the shadow of a small boy).
