Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Miles (Grant Shaud) puts together a junior version of "FYI" to appeal to preteen viewers, and he asks Murphy (Candice Bergen) to mentor one of the youthful reporters. In her diligence to do the right thing, Murphy succeeds only in creating a Frankenstein--specifically a younger, even nastier clone of herself! Future Blossom star Mayim Bialik appears as the "mini-Murphy", while a very young Mark-Paul Gosselaar (NYPD Blue) is seen as one of the other student reporters.
