It was hard growing up without a father, but his older brother Henry is always there for him. Zenji has just finished high school and is trying to decide what to do with his life when he gets an unexpected visit from his high school JROTC officer. Colonel Blake says he has a proposition for Zenji. Basically, he will become a spy for the army.
