Bogus, a villain as bad as villains get, is anxious to get one greedy hand on their property to open a den if inequity. His other slimy paw is slowly creeping towards lovely Merry Luscious. Their only hope is handsome actor and playwright Simon Neal. Will Simon be able to save the day before Lucifer has his way?
