Five Mil

Michael Yachnik and Mike Yachnik

Darrel Wosremski, L.A. movie studio gofer and guardian of cantankerous "Clayton the Pig," is surprised to learn that he, alone, is the beneficiary of a mysterious multi-million dollar inheritance. Of course, theres a catchto get the money, he has to travel around the world and pass several tests, each based upon a classic virtue which is CLEARLY LACKING in those who conduct the tests. Rooting for Darrel is the loving, yet strident, Julie. She'd like Darrel to share the money, make a baby with her, and maybe more. But she's not keen on "that prehistoric lookin' thing in the livin' room" (aka Clayton). Julie struggles to deal with her new porcine housemate while cheering (and nagging) Darrel on. With Julie standing behind him, Darrel sets out to claim his fortune and falls down the rabbit hole of his very own global Wonderland (stops include San Francisco, Reykjavik, New Orleans, Lisbon). Before its over, he tests his limits on how far he is willing to go in pursuit of riches . . . and learns the cost of stepping over the line.
