Chloe tries to enlist the help of passersby to save him ("I only go after wolves dressed as old ladies," says a strapping man felling trees) and eventually comes up with a solution of her own, one that allows for even more meta-comedy. The action plays out in photos of a small, makeshift stage on which Chloe gets lost in the forest and meets a lion? Or should it be a dragon? "Mac" and "Adam" disagree vehemently about which would be cooler, and Adam ends up being eaten by the lion.
Take a vaudeville stage with some flimsy painted scenery, two clay figures that represent Barnett and Rex (Billy Twitters and His Blue Whale Problem), a brash and bespectacled heroine named Chloe (hand-drawn), a lion (also drawn), and some walk-on characters, and you've got a comedy sketch in picture-book form about the chaos involved in collaborative storytelling.
