On a late-night U.S. TV show Scooter O'Neill recommends emigrating for a quieter, safer life overseas. Everyone leaves, except Tex Twitter, half man, half gorilla, and his personal hairdresser, Julie Rudiani. They criss-cross the country stealing valuable property. When the gorilla is too hairy, he has a haircut and becomes a cowboy again. He rides his horse, motorcycle and golf cart at speed but gets beaten by a large army in upper Manhattan. Streets are ploughed up, Tepees set up, buffalo roam and eagles soar like the old days.
