TJ has skipped 6 grades and has made it to high school at the age of 10. His dad isn't too convinced that this is the right thing thing but he decides it could do his son good to be challanged. TJ's brother Marcus isn't so convinced though and is not too happy about his smart little brother being in the same classes with him, doing the same homework with him and even joining the same basketball team as him. TJ is still only a kid and is learning to adjust to high school life. At the end of the episode Marcus finally realises that high school is the best thing for his brother, and is happy for him.moreless
