Matt’s computer genius father has a big surprise for the family.  It’s a robot.  It is actually a bionically modified lifeform.  It sure looks human and even calls Matt his brother.  Matt has to bring his new brother Norman to school with him and pretend he is normal.  But Norman is a bit of an attention freak and just wants to show off.  He even flirts with the girls.  Matt isn’t sure what to think now.  But when it seems as if some bad guys are out to steal Norman, Matt must help him.
