Regent, an autistic genius in fourth grade is lured by a bully's promise of popularity, setting off a race against time to unveil the truth and avoid a year of humiliation and disaster.
"IntelliGent" is a captivating series centered around Regent, an eight-year-old autistic fourth grader with a remarkable intellect and an unquenchable passion for science. The adventure begins on the first day of school in a classroom brimming with anticipation. Regent, along with his brilliant classmates Bailey and Chloe, is placed in this advanced class due to their stellar test scores and exceptional reading comprehension.

Regent, who proudly embraces his identity as a nerd and science enthusiast, is charming with his glasses, ear defenders, and sweet spirit. His journey kicks off with a comical episode where he arrives late, delivering a highly technical explanation about his sister's driving mishap, highlighting his intelligence, eloquence, and endearing awkwardness.

At home, Regent navigates life with his affectionate family: older siblings Ocean and River, and parents Vanessa and Kai. The family dynamics add richness to Regent's character, showcasing the varied personalities and relationships within the household.

As the plot thickens, Regent faces a critical turning point when Ketric Thomas, a popular kid and notorious bully, extends an invitation to join the "popular society." Although the allure of a higher social status is tempting, Regent's best friend Bailey remains wary of Ketric's true intentions.

Can Regent outsmart the bully's scheme before it's too late, or is he destined to endure a year of relentless humiliation and chaos?
