Bryce, teenage wizkid for Network 23, uncovers a scam by rival Network 66 to steal the tele-election through a technology called "View-Doze". View-Doze's inventor, Ned Grossberg, the former chairman of Network 23, claims that people can watch television while asleep, thereby winning the tele-election for his new employer, Network 66. Edison Carter investigates and exposes the scam, but viewers are upset with both networks and the tele-election is won by a third network.
