A TEENAGE SAVANT EMERGES MYSTERIOUSLY FROM THE WOODS WITH NO MEMORY OF HIS PAST, ON KYLE XY, AIRING FRIDAY, JUNE 30 ON ABC

In an original drama from ABC Family airing in encore episodes on the ABC Television Network, Kyle XY follows the surprising journey of a 16-year-old teenage savant who emerges mysteriously from the woods one day with no apparent memory of who he is or where hes been. In a youth detention center, Kyle, as he comes to be called, falls under the care of a psychologist who quickly realizes that the boy needs more special attention, and so takes him home to live temporarily with her family. Soon they all begin to understand that Kyle has some very unique and uncanny abilities.

In the premiere episode, Pilot, Kyles mysterious journey begins when he walks out of the forest and onto the city streets. After being taken to a detention center, psychologist Nicole Trager is brought in to assess Kyle and soon discovers he is unlike anyone she has ever seen. Determined that the center is not the place for Kyle, Nicole brings him home to live with her and her family, much to their chagrin. As Kyle begins to adapt to his surroundings, he endears himself to each member of the Trager family, on Kyle XY, FRIDAY, JUNE 30 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

DESCRIPTION:
(from ABC Family's press release, December 2008) Kyle faces his greatest challenge sacrifice. The third season of the hit ABC Family original series KYLE XY is set to premiere on Monday, January 12 (9:00 10:00 PM ET/PT). The ten all-new one hour episodes star Matt Dallas, Marguerite MacIntyre, Bruce Thomas, April Matson, Jean-Luc Bilodeau, Chris Olivero, Kirsten Prout and Jaimie Alexander. As all great men grow into their hero status, they must learn that their special attributes come with a price. Kyle (Dallas) is not exempt from this rule. Before now he was just a boy figuring out who he was and what his purpose was in life, but now as greater forces push him to rise to new levels he must become a man. And to do so, Kyle may have to sacrifice relationships with those he holds most dear. The greatest influence for this change in Kyle is the secretive organization Latnok, led by its charismatic spokesperson Cassidy (guest star Hal Ozsan). Latnok feels it is time to finally introduce themselves to Kyle proposing that he work for them and become the man he is destined to be. But when Latnok uses kidnapping, blackmail and manipulation to get what they want, can Kyle truly trust them to be honest and sincere in their interest in him? With all of Latnok's concentration on Kyle, where does that leave Jessi (Alexander)? As a product of the same experiment, is Jessi just a pawn that Latnok can use to get to Kyle? Or do they have their sights set on her for another reason? Either way, Kyle and Jessi must band together to uncover Latnok's true motives. As the problems mount and the mystery deepens, Kyle and Jessi find themselves growing closer and closer together. Once again caught in the middle, can the Tragers really help keep Kyle safe this time around as his powers and the danger around him grow?
