"Superfriend" is a slow ballad where [[Jonas]] confides to [[Laurel]], the "good girl" and other female character in the story. It takes place during Act 1.  During the song, Jonas reprises his sentiments from the previous two tracks, chiding himself for giving into [[Maria|Maria's]] seduction despite the fact he does not love her. Laurel urges Jonas to grow up and be better than that. Jonas finds himself smitten with Laurel, but she can see through his act and tells him to get real. From the liner notes:
