Synopsis: Charlie's a child prodigy who's been offered lots of scholarships, but chosen a little known one to work with a scientist he admires. The work is fascinating, but his social life stinks! Trying to get something like a normal life, he also enrols in a local school and pretends to be an average student. He's cool for the first time, but attending school and college at the same time is tricky, and soon someone is bound to find out.
