It follows the life of Barry Ween - the world's smartest human, a ten-year-old [[Gadgeteer Genius]] who hides his intellect from the rest of the world - and his friend Jeremy Ramirez, a hyperactive and sex-obsessed, but overall rather normal, boy of the same age who's the only one to know Barry's secret.

* [[Awesomeness By Analysis]]: the probable explanation to the insane amounts of [[
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Barry has demonstrated to know enough anatomy to put most opponents out with a single finger. Just imagine what happens whenever he pulls out a weapon (of which he invented a lot).
