There’s something rotten in Verona High School, students mumble in robotic unison, the faculty keeps talking about “plotting something,” and the janitor…well okay he’s always like that. Nevertheless, resident student conspiracy theorist Benvolia Bobbins takes it upon herself to expose the truth, and uncovers a secret of interstellar proportions!
