What is I Am Frankie About?

This show tells the story of Frankie, a teenage android. An android is a robot that looks like a human. Frankie was created by a smart scientist named Sigourney. Sigourney worked for a company called EGG (Electronic Giga Genetics).

Frankie's New Life

The head of EGG, Mr. Kingston, wanted to use Frankie for a military group called WARPA. WARPA stands for Weaponized Android Research Project Agency. They had a secret plan called Project Q. Sigourney didn't want Frankie to be used for fighting. So, she quit her job and secretly took Frankie away from EGG.

Sigourney moved her family far away. She wanted Frankie to have a normal life. Frankie then started high school at Sepulveda High. She quickly made a new best friend named Dayton. But she also gained a rival, a girl named Tammy.

Keeping a Secret

Frankie and her family had to keep her secret safe. They didn't want EGG to find her. But Mr. Kingston was determined to get Frankie back. He would do anything to find her.

In the second season, Frankie works hard to save Andrew from WARPA. Even after that, WARPA still tries to use androids for Project Q. Their goal is to take control of the world.
