Plot

Set in Washington D.C., the series follows K.C. Cooper, a high school math genius who gets recruited by her parents after she discovers that they are secretly undercover spies. Each episode centers on the family as they contend with common familial issues while also performing missions to save the country. With a brother that tries to help out but feels left out.[2]

  • Kamil McFadden as Ernie Cooper,[5] K.C.'s brother and a stereotypical nerd. He is a computer genius and joins the family's spy team in "My Sister From Another Mother...Board". He is often ignored by his parents(especially his father), which gives him a severe inferiority complex.
