Pretentious Pictures Presents:

Ain’t it awful!
The next Pink Panther
light classy international humor,
and one of the 
series, based on

Handsome lazy worthless Toby travels with sweet rich blonde bubble-head Marcie, who adores him and gives him whatever he wants, including a house on a Greek island.

Proposed: Camilla Cleese
Trouble is, her nine-year-old daughter Andrea is smarter than both of them put together. "The child." One mustn't turn one's back on it.
It likes to perform experiments on small animalsand on him.

Proposed: David Faustino
Toby’s coarse-grained friend Toad was a ladies’ man until he met his young wife, Darleen. She was the first woman ever to turn Toad down, so he loves her madly. She finds him disgusting, and sprays the phone after he uses it. 

Proposed: Lily-Rose Depp
Darleen prefers Toby. She and Toad are on the island with Toby and Marcie in a house across the lane, where Darleen can conveniently climb in Toby’s window.
The child regards Toby and Toad as A-words—"I'm not allowed to say asshole"—and would have got rid of Toby long ago, but she sees that her mommy loves him, and she loves her mommy.

Proposed: John Cleese
Her grandfather, Marcie’s father-in-law, Hazelton Turnbull "Hard-Turd" Harding IV, a mega-buck bully, controls the purse strings, loathes giving Marcie her allowance—and loathes Toby. But he loves his little granddaughter, and she’s where the power lies.
            Attached: Despina Mirou
Haze has come to the island to shoot a commercial for his new shampoo. When the actress, Tremula, sees Toby, she has an orgasm on the spot. Very expressive.

Attached: Joe Hitchen
Tremula's bodyguard / boyfriend Bonejay has it in for Toby, and steals Haze’s shampoo formula. The child electrocutes him in the bath.

Haze has brought his mistress to the island, and, in a subtler way—not that Haze doesn’t see it—she too is after Toby. When he gets thrown out she takes him in.

Proposed: Theodora Greece
Toby takes refuge in a port-side café where he can snooze
but is discovered there by Grizelda, a chambermaid from the Paris Ritz who claims he made her pregnant. He rejects her because “You’re fat,” and she makes attempts on his life.

Proposed: Corin Nemec
Eco-terrorist the Organic Avenger arrives to assassinate Haze for polluting the sea with his shampoo. He and Grizelda find each other at mid-murder and fall in love. 

Proposed cameo: Monica Bellucci
The Woman of a Certain Age doesn’t even exist. She’s a nightmare Marcie has about somebody stealing Toby.
Pretentious Pictures presents
