Dr. Spencer Kade is a scientist. He's very successful, but rarely ever home.

His ex-wife, Lydia, had a divorce with him years ago because of his constant absence. He was always at the lab, working on new projects. Years ago, Lydia left him all alone with their only child, Jake.

Years have passed since then, and Jake is a teenager now. In high school, he's a good athlete. His football coach is constantly talking about him.
