- DirectorJoel PotrykusStarsJoshua BurgeNicholas FairbanksGary PerrineTrevor Newandyke is a struggling comedian. Not only does he bomb on stage, but he bombs in everyday life. To him, it's the little things that matter most. He's fed up with the threats from the cable company, 7-11 raising the price of the Slurpee, and all the jerks who think they can push him around.

He's not only a lousy comic, but a pyromaniac, as well.
