What is the point of Brian O'Bunion? Bottom of the class, slowest on the pitch, never invited to parties ... he sometimes wishes he could just disappear. Then, one day, some of his classmates actually do. That's when Brian's knack of noticing while going unnoticed leads him into a sticky trap of enchanting honey, freaky bees and not-so-sweet revenge.
