[edit] Synopsis
Sam and Max discover a young Bigfoot working at a corny roadside attraction, "Jungle Boogie Dino Park", and attempt to return him to his natural habitat.
[edit] In-Depth Synopsis
While visiting the Jungle Boogie Dino Park, Sam and Max notice Jojo the child bigfoot working at the cafe. Max initially doesn't care, but at Sam's insistence they take Jojo with them hoping to release him in the nearby forest. They get there easily enough, but Jojo doesn't seem interested in that life. While they try to coax him, he drives off in the DeSoto instead. When they catch up with him they decide to seek out other bigfoots to leave him with.
A visit to the local Bigfoot Bailiwick points them towards the Pigmeus family, who manage to come up with surprisingly high-quality bigfoot footage year after year. After a car chase ending in brief violence, they discover that the Pigmeus's are bigfoots themselves.
At that point the Jungle Boogie manager and police catch up with them, and it turns out that (while human himself) he is actually the father after all. Finally, the bigfoots reveal their nearby community and Sam & Max eat along with them.
