    好奇心が親のしつけを乗り越え、爆破する前になんとか成長した子供たちは、エール大学に招待されます。大学内では、彼らは質問をし続け、答えを見つけようとします...それは好奇心に対する世界の敵意に逆らうことができる場所です。

    جن بچوں کا تجسس والدین کے نظم و ضبط سے بچ جاتا ہے اور جو اڑنے سے پہلے ہی بڑے ہونے کا انتظام کرتے ہیں ، انہیں ییل فیکلٹی میں شامل ہونے کی دعوت دی جاتی ہے۔ یونیورسٹی میں ہی وہ اپنے سوالات پوچھتے ہیں اور جوابات ڈھونڈنے کی کوشش کرتے ہیں ... یہ وہ جگہ ہے جہاں تجسس کے خلاف دنیا کی دشمنی کا مقابلہ کیا جاسکتا ہے۔
