Alex CANNOT TELL A LIE!

Here is how it starts. Alex is trying out Robyn's Wowie Zowie brownies and she squeezes her face like it taste yuckie. But instead of telling the truth to Robyn, she lies and says it taste great(something like that). All of a sudden, she starts telling the truth! One day, she found a cute kitten/cat and she asked her mom if she could keep it. Her mom says no, not because of the cat, but because of George, Alex's dad. He's allergic to cats. So Alex hides the kitty in the garage. Anyway, Alex tells Annie about her telling the truth stuff and-I'm writing WAY too much, to find out what keeps happening, read this book: The Secret World Of Alex Mack: Truth Trap!

"Truth Trap" Would Have Been A Good Episode

"Truth Trap" follows in the tradition of some of "Alex Mack's" best first- and second-season episodes. The basic plot involves the unknown reactions and side-effects of GC-161, Alex' and Annie's efforts to solve the resulting problems while protecting "The Secret," all the while trying to escape the plant's latest attempts to find "the Kid." From the seemingly innocent story set-up of Alex trying one of Robyn's brownies, the story spins a fun and fast tale of Alex's latest nemisis: herself! The dinner scenes where Danielle Atron is a guest in the Mack home are classic! For fans of the series, "Truth Trap" will be well worth $4.99. The
