Wayne becomes concerned about his family's safety and invents a security system for their protection. F.R.A.N., the Felon Repeller and Accident Neutralizer takes her duties very seriously and involves herself in every facet of the household. Diane is wary of the overprotective computer, not realizing that F.R.A.N. has developed a mind of her own. When Wayne decides to pull the plug, F.R.A.N. holds the Szalinskis under "house arrest." Wayne and his family try to stop F.R.A.N. before it's too late.

Wayne invents something that could make your vision perfect so Nick tries it out and can see practically anything, even dead people. He befriends a "friendly" ghost who gets into Wayne's body and Nick realises that the ghost isn't all that good. So he along with Wayne attempt to get control of his body so they can get the ghost out.

When Wayne invents a neuron nudger, Diane accidentally turns it on and swaps her brain with that of Bianca's cat. Bianca, Wayne's scheming coworker, switches Wayne's brain with Quark's so she can use Wayne's body to access his vault at work. Nick and Amy then try to switch Wayne, Diane, and Bianca's brain back to their correct bodies.

While Wayne works on controlling the cloning of himself, one of his new selves takes his place at work, where Bianca becomes suspicious of his geniality. Wayne is down because his clone is doing better than the real him. She gives his clone a friendship bracelet that is a tracking device, she befriends the clone and then uses him to kidnap Wayne.
