What You'll Learn

Greg has landed a date with the hottest movie star around, Helena Francois (Cindy Chu, HAWAII FIVE-O) but when he finds out she's actually an alien in disguise, he's kidnapped by Beatrix Baker (Angela Cristantello, MARVEL'S AGENT CARTER) and Pickle Frost (newcomer Ramona Apthorp) members of a team of underground heroes on a mission to uncover the truth of their reality. Also featuring Carolyn Deskin (SORROW) and Rama Vallury (AOK).
