The pilot starts twelve years into the story and follows the adolescents Ryan, Jeremy and Angelica, who live abroad with their expatriated parents; successful pharmaceutical researchers. Together, the three friends prepare for a new chapter in their lives, a gap year after high school. Their plans derail by accidentally discovering their parents' secret. The opening scene flashes forward one year, picturing the friends, injured and in distress as their journey has taken them from Europe to Africa in search for a cure, and answers to their still growing mental and physical capabilities.
