Suburbia hides a dark but nutty secret in this comic horror script. Married couple Bill and Susan live with their teenage son in a nice quiet street, where nothing exciting ever happens… until now. Bill, a bioengineer with dreams of making a breakthrough discovery, has secretly been working on extracting DNA from a fossilized squirrel he dug up – whilst coming up with increasingly convoluted ways of getting Susan out of the house while he experiments. But when Susan comes home early one day, Bill panics and stashes the DNA sample inside a can of energy drink… and suddenly their son Tyler starts behaving very strangely. Peanut butter is going missing at an alarming rate, and even worse, there are reports of local pets disappearing. Is Tyler involved? Is Tyler even Tyler anymore?
