The term syndrome derives from the Greek συνδρομή (sundromē) and means "concurrence of symptoms, concourse", from σύν (sun), "along with, together" + δρόμος (dromos), amongst others "course".
In medicine and psychology, a syndrome is the association of several clinically recognizable features, signs (observed by someone other than the patient), symptoms (reported by the patient), phenomena or characteristics that often occur together, so that the presence of one or more features alerts the healthcare provider to the possible presence of the others. In recent decades, the term has been used outside medicine to refer to a combination of phenomena seen in association.
Some syndromes, such as Down syndrome, have only one cause; others, such as Parkinsonian syndrome, have multiple possible causes. In other cases, the cause of the syndrome is unknown.
A familiar syndrome name often continues to be used even after an underlying cause has been found, or when there are a number of different primary causes that all give rise to the same combination of symptoms and signs. Many syndromes are named after the physicians credited with first reporting the association; these are "eponymous" syndromes (see also the list of eponymous diseases, many of which are called "syndromes"). Otherwise, disease features or presumed causes, as well as references to geography, history or poetry, can lend their names to syndromes.

Plot: In a dark room, Agent Rick Dicker interrogates Kari, a young girl with braces. He asks what happened. Kari explains that she was babysitting for an infant, Jack-Jack, who seems able to levitate, float, pass through walls, catch fire, and cause havoc. Kari stays nimble but barely holds on until an odd young man with orange hair and an "S" on his shirt rings the bell.

That holds the key to get me out here
Because I'm stukk, runnin' outta lukk
And all the doors are lokked.
I want but can't pay attention
That's why I always keep on asking.
I'm sikk of this place,
Want to leave without a trace
With a smile upon my face.
I feel unhappy
I feel unneeded
I feel misunderstood
I feel so unreal
I feel unwanted...unwanted
Chorus
I'm breakin' down
Everyone around
Is bangin' on my eardrums without any sound.
When I raise my head
I don't feel like a man.
I'm feelin' like a stranded alien again.
I look but I can't see.
I hear but I can't understand.
Would anybody miss me?
If I left, would you give a damn?
God knows I try to be the best that I can be.
But something holds me bakk
Something I can't see!
Chorus
I'm breakin' down
Everyone around
Is bangin' on my eardrums without any sound.
When I raise my head
I don't feel like a man.
I'm feelin' like a stranded alien again.
I feel unhappy
I feel unneeded
I feel misunderstood
I feel so unreal
I feel unwanted...unwanted like you!
Chorus
I'm breakin' down
Everyone around
Is bangin' on my eardrums without any sound.
When I raise my head
I don't feel like a man.
I'm feelin' like a stranded alien again.
