Chen Weijie [Shawn Lee] is a bright but underestimated student at the International Technological Polytechnic (ITP). Alongside Damien Liu Jianren [Joshua Ang], he defies the label of being “dumb” by demonstrating a natural talent for designing and building gadgets that fit into their tracks: Design and Technology, Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics, and Electrical and Electronics Engineering. Damien comes from a wealthy, single-parent home and is estranged from his mother Cynthia Phua and younger brother Amos Liu, a fluent English speaker. His personal turmoil drags him into a risky world: he joins a local street gang of loan sharks and becomes a loan shark runner, eventually bringing Chen Weijie into the operation, where their skills are put to work painting, spraying, and composing threats for the gang.
