Raking Rad

Raking Rad is the thrilling story of a teenage boy who wants to buy the Breaking Bad action figures, but his parents refuse to buy them for him because they disapprove of the toys, claiming they set a bad example; and so our young hero decides to rake leaves for people in the neighborhood to earn money for the action figures. But, in taking these jobs raking leaves, he makes enemies of local gardeners who think he’s a threat to their jobs. So the gardeners tell the boss of a local landscaping company with a stranglehold on yard work in the area, and angry with the teen for horning in on their yard work empire, the group decides to make an example of this kid to scare other teens away from trying to earn money through yard work. So they send their gardener goons with pruning shears to cut his little fingers off as punishment for crossing the landscaping lunatics.

This sounds like a grave situation, but as it happens, this kid is a huge fan of the show Breaking Bad, as well as of The Walking Dead and Bruce Lee Kung Fu movies, and so he has learned how to survive dangerous situations through the show plots, and he’s also learned how to fight using gardening tools as martial arts weapons. So when the gardening goons arrive to rough up our hero, he beats them senseless with the stick end of his rake, sending them to the hospital, and foiling the intimidation plan.

Well, the landscapers who hold this area in a yard work stranglehold aren’t going to take that lying down, so they send more and more gardening goons to attack our hero. But our hero has now recruited other high school martial artists to do yard work in the area, so now it’s on: a rumble between the teens and the pros! And so they’re all fighting in hand-to-hand combat with gardening implements, like rakes and hoes and trowels and clippers and weed whackers, using them all as martial arts weapons! It’s a bloodbath out there, with red all over the green of the lawns and gardens! And the teens win the fight, but once they earn enough money to buy the Breaking Bad action figures, they don’t feel like doing yard work anymore, and the landscaping company gets their work back. The End.
