Draft 1
After being fired from his job, recovering alcoholic and family man Ted Tugnutt inadvertently saves a man from choking at a local art festival. When a local camera crew captures the heroic incident, a TV producer hires him to pose as a doctor for a television commercial for Vaginela—a product geared towards female arousal.
When the commercial goes viral, his front yard becomes a battleground in the war between “Vaginists” and “Purists.” As Ted attempts to thwart the attention, he became all the more famous and seen as a desirable spokesman (even by the LGBTQ movement). In the meantime, Ted struggles to bond with his daughter and her boyfriend, and construct a bridge between his newfound celebrity and his family.
Ted Tugnutt discovers if you want to be truly happy, being famous isn’t enough. "Tugnutt" is a story about being true to who we are and who we love with a helluva lot of laughs along the way.
