Hap Collins is feeling old. Working nights as a bouncer, living his days by the grace of his best buddy Leonard Pine and his good woman Brett Sawyer, he's greying at the temples, thickening at the middle and he feels that bad things are coming. They are. Brett's teenage daughter Tillie has taken to drugs and prostitution and needs rescuing. Quickly. The boys have to set out for Hootie Hoot, Oklahoma, a place even more godforsaken than it sounds.
On the road, their motley band expands to include a six-four ex-Pentecostal preacher and hitman, plus his brother, a red-headed midget with an attitude. Not to mention Leonard's adopted son, Bob the armadillo. As road trips go, Hap's had quieter ones.

Brett comes with her own set of problems, though, not the least of which are an ex-husband (whom she has set fire to) and her wayward daughter, Tillie. Brett persuades Hap and Leonard to help rescue Tillie from her life of drugs and prostitution in Texas. On their way they pick up a string of odd characters. These include Herman, an ex-preacher and hit man who has turned his hand to selling prairie dogs to the Japanese, and Herman's brother, Red, a hard-nosed midget who joins the party together with Leonard's adopted son, an armadillo called Bob! In order to reach Tillie the motley crew finally take to the air before finding themselves up against the Bandito Supremes. --Pat Naylor
