The show is about four friends who come together to keep a secret that will save their town and still show off Bigfoot, and the hilarity that ensues.


This is a general description of how the show is going to happen.
The show will start at a news studio doing its nightly news with the news broadcaster talking about the headlines. The camera will focus on a man standing on screen. The mayor will be explaining how Bigfoot was in their town.
The scene opens up to Bigfoot town. Panning through the town, showing how many businesses have closed up shop and the town having financial difficulties. The scene moves over to the local gas station showing the mayor filling up his car and a new car pulls up beside him and starts pumping. He will have a general discussion with the tourists that are just passing through.
The mayor moves from the pumps and heads into pay for his gas. He goes to the counter and waits for a minute before he finally clears his throat trying to get attention of the attendant, Paul; the two of them are friends.
The mayor leaves the gas station and goes over to the costume shop. He tries to rent a clown suit for his nephew’s birthday and cannot, so he rents a gorilla suit.
The camera focuses on the car loaded with camping gear and three people trying to set up a campsite. The campers continue to unload the car. The mayor walks over to the party in the gorilla suit. The campers think that the mayor is Bigfoot.
The scene comes up at the mayor’s house in the morning of the following day. We hear loud noises coming from outside. The mayor opens the blinds to several people right outside of his window that are now looking in. The mayor gets up and heads to his bathroom. He looks at himself in the mirror and starts to use the shaving cream as a comedy face, mimicking scenes from Silence of the Lambs, Mrs. Doubtfire, the Grinch, and Guardians of the Galaxy. After the scene in the house, the mayor quickly walks to the town hall, noticing all the camera people in the streets and the news broadcasters doing live news broadcasts from their trucks.
Georgia Foster, the town secretary, gets out the computer and shows the mayor the video of the Bigfoot.
There is a dream sequence that shows a room filled with reporters all sitting in chairs by a podium. In walks the mayor to the podium. The scene is a spoof of Ironman.
Next we see the mayor walking downtown looking at the people in the town and the businesses that have opened back up. The mayor walks over to the coffee shop to where Maya works. This sets up more scenes to follow as we will see scenes going forward with Jack (the mayor), Paul, Georgia and Maya
After that, it goes over to an old farm house. The mayor is there with two elderly people dressed half-hippie, half-farmer. This scene introduces the mayor’s parents.
It then goes over to Paul talking to the deputy mayor and Georgia. The camera crews have all shown up to hear the presentation from the mayor about Bigfoot. The mayor hasn’t shown up yet and the deputy mayor has to hold off the reporters.
The mayor is sitting in the coffee house looking at his coffee. He has a deep conversation with Maya who urges him to do what he thinks is best. She doesn’t know that he was Bigfoot.
The mayor walks very steadily towards town hall like he is on a mission to save a life. He gets in front of the reporter that we have seen from the start of the show.
