Synopsis
After a failed attempt at purchasing a Q-Mutt 17 (a Digi-Dog rip off) at the hands of his arch rival, Nemesis (Chris Kendall), Stuart Ashens (Stuart Ashen) begins to take matters into his own hands. The next day, Stuart meets up with an old school friend, Geoffrey Excellence (Dan Tomlinson), and gives him refuge after he finds out that Geoff was fired from his job as Chef Excellence, and left without a home. When they arrive back at the house, Geoff accidentally reveals a hidden room, filled with the pointless and useless items Stuart had collected over the years. The main exhibit, however, is an empty container labeled, "The GameChild." It turns out that the GameChild was a rip off of the newly released Gameboy, only released in limited quantities. While trying to purchase the last one, Stuart was beaten to the chase by Nemesis, leading to Stuart's endless journey to find one. Stuart denies any action on finding it, until the dream he has that night specifically tells him otherwise.Actors
