Inventor twins Nick and Tesla Holt take a break from searching for their missing parents to visit the set of a superhero movie; when a saboteur's pranks threaten to shut down production, the duo teams up with their movie-crazy friends to investigate. Series fans will welcome the returning mix of related do-it-yourself science projects and lighthearted mystery. Garrett's illustrations add energy.
