The first season of this hyperkinetic martial-arts kids' show follows Ryan, Kaitlin and J.B., three teenage karate students who morph into armor-wearing superheroes and enter a high-tech virtual reality to fight the wicked Grimlord and his minions.

Grimlord sends a package to the dojo. When it's opened, Ryan, Kaitlin and J.B. are exposed to a strange ray that turns them into children.

Kaitlin's cousin aspires to be a reporter like Kaitlin, and while on a story, she discovers green slime oozing from the grass in the park.

A neighborhood policewoman offers Tao and the kids a challenge: turn Becky into a karate contender in two weeks and win $1,000.
