When a chipmunk falls in Johnny’s shirt during a karate match and ends up leveling everyone, his master’s rival is so impressed he kidnaps Johnny until he will teach him his move.
Johnny is a film director, writer, and a star of a new movie that he created using a $7 million arts grant from the government of the United States of America.
After causing numerous disasters for Carl, Bunny, and Suzy, Johnny wishes that he had never been born. Maurice, Johnny’s guardian angel, shows him what life would be like if he was never born, which actually turns out to be much better.
Johnny tries to end the feud between Bunny and Mona Herschbum, the new next door neighbor, so he can go on a date with Mona’s beautiful tuba-playing daughter, Juliet “Julie” Herschbum.
