find a way to quickly earn enough to save his car. He robs a video rental store and buys beers with the money, instead. The next day, he has a hangover. He can't stand the music his neighbors play. He decides to fight them. After he beats down Hobie, a fat boy in the neighborhood to the ground, he hears them talking about the sasquatch, a legend that this small town believes. Zerk has a great idea: He'll buy ingredients to prepare a fake sasquatch feces. His friend Shirts helps him and they leave the tracks in the forest Hobie and his friends are about to visit. Hobie falls onto the fake feces and they "discover" the sasquatch's feces. Later Hobie and his friends meet Shane, a long-time bully. He starts to make fun of the braces of Sophie, Hobie's friend. Actually she had her mouth wired by her dentist uncle, so as to lose weight. Sophie, not seeming afraid, tells Shane "How about I kick you in the balls?" This refers to the night Sophie was with Gavin, Hobie's best friend, when Shane tried to kiss Sophie by force, without Gavin realizing it.

Shane pushes Sophie, she hits her head, and she faints. Gavin is really angry and finds a woodstick to attack Shane, over Zerk's motivational speech. Shane is no afraid. He starts to give Gavin a serious beatdown with his gang but Hobie is there on time. He can't turn his back to his best friend, any more. He takes Shane's friends, it's Shane against Gavin again. Maynard returns to the forest to say something, sees his friends Hobie and Gavin in a bad situation, he runs back to call the police for help. In the meanwhile, Shane's gang decides to run away from Hobie, on the road they see the police coming, they call out Shane's name, Shane's now afraid, leaves the scene and it's Gavin's victory. Sophie isn't awake still, so Gavin decides to kiss her before the police arrives. She does wake up.

welcomed by Shirts, and the first question he asks is about the money. Shirts tells him that "Our fake sasquatch dumplings are sold for real, but since more people believe the sasquatches exist now, everyone started to sell fake dumplings." Zerk understands that all his "hard work" has been in vain, tries not to cry, and asks Shirts what to do next. One final suggestion by Shirts is that: Zerk joins the car races. If he loses his car in the races, there'll be no car to take from Zerk by the bank's force. If he wins the races, he can pay his debt to the bank. Zerk is overjoyed by this idea, but the movie returns to its very first scene: The red car of Zerk's has a small accident, meaning he's left with no car to give to the bank.

the scene. The three friends celebrate the victory. After a fun night, they find Gavin's car ruined by Shane and his gang. He'd written "Fat Sophie" onto the car, so she leaves the scene, heartbroken. Hobie tells Gavin "It's all your fault, you should've let me stay because I know I'd be the third wheel."

Sophie is then seen without the wires in her mouth, she decided to love herself the way she is. Gavin happily kisses her, Hobie and Maynard start roleplaying as Arthur's knights. Zerk is freed from jail, because the town now believes the sasquatch is real, so he does not have to stay in jail. Zerk is

The police asks Maynard about the scene, Hobie admits that he knocked off his nephew. The police accepts that he's been a brat, and he'll talk to him. By the way, Gavin points to the hair of Hobie, the police asks what it's about. Gavin says that "It'd been Hobie that fell onto the feces in the first

Sophie, meeting Gavin earlier than Hobie, is only interested in him, so they go on a date. They go against Shane's gang in a game. Hobie, maddened over the fact that he feels like the third wheel to the newly-blossoming couple, shoots his teammate, Sophie. Shane bullies him verbally again and leaves
332:
Actually, Sophie was working at a video rental store which Zerk would rob, and Hobie went there in order to give the toy. He thought she might be interested in him so he told her he's into fantastic movies. Sophie doesn't seem interested, so Hobie, heartbroken, leaves the bookshop and that's exactly

The whole town has been waiting for Doctor to tell if the Sasquatch feces is genuine, or not. He finally arrives. They, altogether, go to the forest. Now, Zerk is panicked. He needs to destroy evidence. He arrives at the scene, finding the fake evidence destroyed already. It'd been Hobie, anyway.

Zerk is a young jobless man who is in debt to a collection agency for a credit card transaction at a burger place in 1999. A collection agency rep is sent to warn him that he has 10 days to pay his debt, or else his car will be repossessed; because he had been ignoring the bank's calls. Zerk must

Zerk hides behind the same tree, and his noise is heard by the police, who happens to be Shane's uncle. He arrests Zerk for creating fake evidence for the polices, and Doctor leaves the scene; but Gavin and Sophie are busy, talking. So, they don't realize Shane and his gang are still there, too.
