Synopsis
Can this family pull it together when the world is hanging together by a thread? After a 16-year absence, Claire (played by Kellie Martin: “ER” and “Life Goes On”) and Matt Thompson (played by Brady Smith: “The Closer”) are reintroduced to The Jensen Project—a secret community of geniuses conducting advanced underground research to solve the world’s most difficult problems. But their return is far from a social visit. The former scientists, accompanied by their tech-minded son Brody (played by Justin Kelly), are thrust into a frantic pursuit to keep a potentially dangerous technology from falling into the wrong hands. Joined by Jensen members Ingrid (played by Patricia Richardson: “Home Improvement”) and Kendrick (played by LeVar Burton: “Roots,” “Star Trek,” and “The Next Generation”), the chase takes you on a roller-coaster adventure of dark schemes and covert alliances. As the family races against the clock to stop the group’s rogue faction, they discover an important truth: In this high-pressure, high-tech world, sometimes the smartest thing you can do is open up and learn to lean on each other.
