Synopsis
DEVIN DAMUELS (55+) has ruined KELLY STEVEN’s (newly 35) birthday for the last fucking time.
A birthday ago, his army of incels rated her 3 of 10 on their bullshit female value scale. In multiple viral commentary videos, they declared she was a leftover fatty 304 (whore) who would never land a high-value man.
The day of her big birthday party and would-be wedding day, Atlanta’s most infamous Red Pill grifter—almost ran her over. Then one hour later, he chastised her during a live taping of a national TV show.
Having CHRIS (37, Kelly’s certified high-value fiancé), stomp the shit out of that smug prick in the TV studio’s parking lot probably wasn’t the smartest way to send that message. Thankfully, sexy-ass ROCCO GIBBS (36, host of the city’s most wholesome talk show) is here to help.
Rocco saves Kelly and Chris from assault charges by offering to interview Devin on his failing, but nationally syndicated show.
But Kelly and Rocco aren’t the only ones working to take Devin down.
Ruby Nicole (a shameless self-promoter and man-eater) wants Devin out so she can have a larger slice of the love guru grift pie.
It seems Devin’s infamy and empire grows with every attempt to end his career. At the height of things, Devin’s the host of a viral podcast, owns a successful luxury car dealership, lands a TV deal for a reality dating show, and has a smoking hot 25-year-old fiancé. He’s on a yacht celebrating his mother’s birthday!
Unfortunately, going viral has brought Chris and Kelly lots of negative attention. Kelly’s unwillingness to drop her vendetta and marry Chris pushes their relationship from strained to fully broken up.
Somehow in the mess of brawling at farmer’s markets, fancy dinners, live TV, parking lots, and more, Kelly and Rocco ultimately discover love by revealing their true selves to an equally authentic partner.
And Devin Damuels? Pfft, rest in piss to that ninja’s everything!
Themes and Comedic Tones
Rest in Piss, Devin Damuels is a blackity-black romantic comedy. It’s a satire about the gender wars, red pill grifters, and the manosphere. I’m putting the comedy back in to romantic stories. Yes, the message is progressive. No, there is absolutely no ‘woke’ terminology in the script. I want to use comedy to plant radical seeds in the baby brains of cis-gendered normies.
