When Orson finds himself at the center of a celebrity child kidnapping case, he sees a chance to raise himself out of his sad life and become a hero, but a hero's life may not be the life he thought it would be. Orson's adventures throw him into harsher realities than those he was designed for, where bloodthirsty pirates are hunting the same treasure, though only Orson wants to find the treasure alive.
