It is a series of dramatic events that embody the story of Ballard High School, a school that educates elite children in the capital, industry executives, international diplomats and all those influential figures in society. The school bus took off for a new flight but was ambushed on a secluded rural road to kidnap teenagers and their escorts. Now, there will be a national crisis that is changing things.

Crisis is a surprisingly gripping thriller about the horrors that befall a group of rich, overeducated teens when their cell phones enter a network-free dead zone.
If you're looking for a series that's a heady mix of action movie, political thriller, teen soap opera and network crime drama, you'll want to get on the bus.
The mood music in Crisis can be over-wrought at times -- and downright over-bearing when a male vocalist breaks into "Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child." But the first two hours are nicely paced and eventful.
