As Edgar attempts to become a normal boy, he wins the heart of the veterinarian's daughter, Shelley, but prejudice and fear swell as his shocking origins are revealed. The cast features Jack Janowicz as Bat Boy, Adriana Sanchez as Meredith Parker, Sasha Baker as Shelley Parker, and Peter Crisafulli as Dr. Parker.
