In a small town in California, Maria wants nothing more than to meet this mysterious Hank Lord she’s been talking to online. Her sister is trying to live in the 90s. Neither know that Hank Lord is actually a demon.
Meanwhile, Ella's job at Taco Bell isn't going well. Her manager won't talk with her, and she is coming to terms with her own sexuality, and she keeps hearing the cries from the cows in the ground beef.
This awkward comedy about people connecting and disconnecting was described by an audience member as "Clerks meets The Goonies."
This is set in fictional version of Woodland, which is a diverse city in every sense of the word. This should be reflected in the casting. Actor playing Hank also plays Canker, the Nurse, the Gym Bunny, and the Customer.
