Plot
Angelo is the kid who tries to be the wise guy. He is constantly coming up with plans and strategies to get out of trouble. He has determined as well that nothing will stand in the way of getting what he wants, and he actually embraces challenges.
Angelo isn't put off by the natural setbacks most kids have to confront like parents, siblings and rules, but that doesn't deter him. He has a couple of really good friends who also help him in his strategic planning, like Sherwood, the king of logistics and Lola, the enthusiast. Together, they make a winning trio.
