The story: Four groups of people that do not know each other, are all connected by one thing. The internet.
Ben is a talented smart kid who keeps to himself and doesn't exactly have any friends.
His father Rich is an attorney, who is never too far from his cell phone, which makes him even further away from his family.
While wandering around a martial arts studio, Ben has a run-in with bullies Jason and Frye.
When Frye looks on Facebook to find Ben, he learns that Ben is a 10th grader just like them and also goes to their school.
They decide to make a fake Facebook account to mess with Ben, which goes horribly wrong.
Jason's dad Mike, is a widowed ex-policeman who is struggling to raise Jason on his own.
Jason thinks his dad is too hard on him, doesn't understand him, and worst of all, doesn't care about him.
Mike works taking down people who steal others' identities through the internet.
He is currently trying to help married couple Derek and Cindy, whose marriage is suffering since the passing of their infant son.
