The story

Teenager Scott Marshall comes from a family of superheroes, but is the only one without powers, which he hopes will emerge on his 14th birthday. Meanwhile, an activist group called the "Earth Protectors" distribute CD-ROMs about the environment to Scott's classmates, with their programmer, Nina, seeking to use them to educate while her partner Malcolm plans to use them to brainwash people into committing crimes for him. Following a failed bank robbery, he realizes the program only works on children and conducts further tests to confirm and fix this.
