Plot Synopsis
The McKenna family must cope with the passing of its much-loved patriarch, Patrick. Hope appears in the form of a book called "The Dangerous Book for Boys" that Patrick created for his three sons. It becomes a how-to guide that inspires fantasies in his youngest son, Wyatt, enabling him to reconnect with his father and learn lessons that help him navigate real life. As Beth struggles with the family's rapidly deteriorating financial situation, Tiffany and Uncle Terry try to help out in their own unique ways. Wyatt, meanwhile, travels from the Old West to the Poker World Championship as he learns the importance of when to be honest and when to bluff. With both his mom and his teachers concerned about him, Wyatt is sent to a therapist, where he struggles with the idea that he might be crazy. Meanwhile, Beth tries to keep the family's spirits up at all costs, and Liam, to Dash's delight, finds himself under a troublesome hex. As money problems deepen, Beth attempts to earn extra income by working as a rideshare driver. Wyatt, wanting to help out, opens a lemonade stand. When Liam and Dash get involved, it quickly leads to an all-out lemonade war with a competing stand. On Friday, March 30, 2018 at 3:01am ET/12:01am PT, Amazon released the first six episodes of THE DANGEROUS BOOK FOR BOYS, which is executive produced by Bryan Cranston.
