Farrah Higgins is a Los Angeles high school senior who left behind her geek self in another school district and calculated a successful formula for disguising her math genius so she can hang with the "in" crowd. "Digit" Higgins may be going to MIT in the fall but until then she's blending in at Santa Monica High and trying to be whatever equals "normal". But while watching her favorite hit television show she notices seemingly random numbers appear on the bottom of the screen. Playing with the sequence of the numbers, she discovers a message that she shrugs off until a terrorist attack occurs at JFK airport and she realizes the numbers directly correlated to the date and location of the bombing. With her father, a UCLA math professor, she visits the FBI headquarters to explain what she saw, but she gets the "fruitcake" treatment from a young, hot agent. Soon she's investigating on her own and being chased by terrorists. The FBI has to fake her kidnapping. Senior year has just gotten a lot more interesting.
