Tom and his friends have been working hard on all their projects, but they’re most thrilled about Noah’s new virtual reality simulation.

Nothing dulls their excitement, not even when a mysterious prankster starts messing with people’s inventions.

With his new shadow in tow, Tom expects the night to be uneventful. But when the facility suddenly goes into quarantine mode, the overnight lock-in turns into a building-wide lockdown. Tom and his friends are left trapped in their respective rooms, with no way to communicate the outside world. As they make their way through the facility using methods that are a little more...creative...than normal, Tom and his friends start realizing that there is more to this quarantine than meets the eye. It’s up to them to not only escape, but also find out what - or who - is behind the lockdown.

But the rest of their teachers have been giving so many pop quizzes that they can barely focus in class, never mind concentrate on the tournament.
