"trANTsferred" is the first episode in Season 3 of A.N.T. Farm. It was a one-hour season premiere that aired on May 31, 2013. It earned 2.84 million viewers on its premiere.[1]

Plot 

After seeing Angus break into his high-tech security, Zoltan Grundy of  Z-Tech discovers the A.N.T. Farm and, after Skidmore pretends that they can't pay for a good ANT Farm, builds an A.N.T. Boarding School. All of the ANT's are excited to go to the boarding school; unfortunately, Chyna fails to get in due to Zoltan picking another musical prodigy: his nephew. His sister coerced him into letting him into his school even though he wasn't a prodigy. Olive and Fletcher attempt to help her prove to Zoltan that she belongs. Meanwhile, Lexi throws a party celebrating the boarding school, but Angus, Kennedy, and the other ANT's, prefer to study than to have fun.

In the end, Chyna performs her song "Stars Aligning" for Zoltan, who admits how great she is, but he had to put his nephew as the musical prodigy (despite the fact that his talent is Air Guitar), but Chyna points out that he can have multiple prodigies. Zolton, finally convinced, accepts Chyna into the school. Also, Lexi is revealed to be a math prodigy, not a musical prodigy.

Goofs

• There is a continuous error at the beginning of the episode. When Angus is on the lounge chair, the AntPad is next to Angus. Then when Fletcher gets on it, the AntPad is on the floor. Then when Fletcher falls, it is next to him on the floor.
• Fletcher claims that he is agoraphobic, but in EndurANTs he didn't seem afraid that he was left in the outback. Although he could've got agoraphobia after EndurANTs, it is even possible his experience in EndurANTs is the reason for his agraphobia.
