What is Out of Sight About?
This show follows the adventures of a clever 12-year-old boy named Joseph Lucas, but everyone calls him Joe. One day, Joe finds an old diary with details about a secret experiment. He also finds a copy of the famous book The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells.
Joe's Amazing Discovery
With help from his friend Ali Pantajali, Joe decides to try the experiment. They manage to create a special spray! This spray, which comes in a green bottle, can turn people and objects invisible. Imagine the fun and trouble that could cause!

The invisibility doesn't last forever. If something invisible gets wet, or if a few minutes pass, it becomes visible again. This means Joe and Ali have to be very careful with their invention.
