ON GUARD – EPISODE 2 – HOLY COW!
Donnie and Bradley are back! Outfitted with a two-man cow costume and more enthusiasm than brains, the perilous pair stake-out a farmer’s field to apprehend a group of elusive cattle-thieves.
Unwilling to leave the bumbling duo to their own devices, head office has sent security guard Cindy Lesner to keep an eye on them. Suffering from a recent break-up, Cindy is in a less than ideal frame of mind to be at work. Bradley, however, seizes the opportunity to ask his long-time crush on a date. To both his and Donnie’s surprise, she agrees to meet him after their shift.
When a UFO flies over the field, Cindy is too busy on the phone with her ex to even notice. Donnie and Bradley, on the other hand, are unable to miss it. Mistaken for a real cow, the boys are snatched up into a blinding white light only to find themselves aboard a large spaceship. Things quickly escalate from bad to worse as the guards undergo a series of rigorous and invasive medical examinations. Either through quick thinking or poor upbringing, Donnie launches a minor biological attack against his captors which results in the two being ejected and returned to the field.
To add to Bradley’s shame, he discovers that over 24 hours have elapsed since the abduction and he has missed his date with Cindy. In a rare display of loyalty, Donnie covers for his partner. Bradley begs for another chance but it’s too late: she’s back with her ex! As she leaves to take her lover’s call, the two contemplate the fantastic day’s events and decide to pack it in. But the cruel world in which Donnie and Bradley exist isn’t done with them yet as metal-head vandals strike again with typical ruthless timing. Tired, battered and ashamed, for Donny and Bradley, it’s just another day…on guard.
