Eugene and Whit consider the future of breakthrough scientific research, while Buck and Jules try to hide their relationship from their parents.
Theme:
“Whit” is an inventor, author, entrepreneur and owner of Whit’s End—an ice cream shop and “discovery emporium” where kids can be kids. His wise counsel, inventiveness and insight have made him a trusted friend and confidant to everyone in Odyssey.
Eugene is Whit’s dependable, eccentric genius of an assistant. Whether he’s working at Whit’s End, teaching at Campbell College, or developing another big invention, Eugene knows everything about everything (or thinks he does).
Buck Oliver first appeared in “The Green Ring Conspiracy” as a cunning con-artist, a partner to the wily Mr. Skint, who made a living tricking people out of their money. After Buck’s time in juvenile detention, Eugene and Katrina brought him into their home as their foster son. Eventually, Buck became a true member of the family, adopted forever and always. Now Buck can proudly say that he is a Meltsner, and his best friend Jules couldn’t be happier for him.
Connie's half-sister, Jules first appeared at the funeral of June Kendall. Jules came to stay with Connie to escape California and has been the source of delight and trouble in Odyssey since then. She's not a Christian, and believes that life is a "food chain."
