Integrity Episode 1

Embarrassed that his history project -- a reproduction of a relic that his father brought back from a trip to Egypt -- is too lame, Zach tells his class that the relic is real.

Concerned that this would harm Zach’s integrity, Plato tells a wise and well-known tale about a boy whose lies get the better of him.
