Plot

In the bustling halls of high school, science geek Barney Springboro dedicates his life to the study of nature's mysteries. Lost in a world of orchids and lab mice, he remains blissfully oblivious to the absence of romance in his life. But when a freakish accident during a playful experiment with his partner in crime, the jovial Peyton Nichols, results in the accidental discovery of a formula for telekinesis, Barney's world is flipped inside out. Suddenly imbued with extraordinary telekinetic abilities, Barney navigates the chaotic landscape of high school with renewed confidence. No longer the timid bookworm, he leverages his newfound powers to teach the school bullies a lesson they won't forget, adding a dash of excitement to his previously mundane existence. In the midst of his thrilling escapades, the allure of the classroom beauty, Jane Mitchell, catches his eye. But as he navigates this strange new world, he may discover that the heart may have its own magnetic pull, and love could be closer than he ever imagined. With his mind now capable of bending reality, the question remains, how much mischief can a high school kid with the power to move things with his mind truly cause? In the electric world of 'Zapped!', the adventure is just beginning.
