Adam Young, a fourteen-year-old genius, starts work as a high school science teacher. When the school bully, Jordan "Slab" Slabinski, threatens to beat him up and steals Adam's master key and wreaks havoc throughout the school. Now Adam must get creative in order to resolve the conflict and outwit the big oaf, or his first day on the job could be his last.
When Adam has trouble controlling his class, he creates a robot student, Arthur, to enforce the rules. When Mr. Tater finds out, he figuratively says that he is going to kill Adam. However, Arthur takes it literally and tries to destroy Tater, as one of his directives is to protect Adam. Adam and Derby must stop his creation, or he himself could be "terminated."
Adam learns that Echo is taking the same route home from school and is excited to walk with her. That is, until he learns he has detention duty and the only way to get out of it is to prevent anyone from getting in trouble...including Slab.
