Overview

Entomology meets extraterrestrials in Baker's Dozen, a darkly comedic satire about a man who aspires to do the right thing, even if it means letting others down. When twelve goo-dripping aliens land in DC and become addicted to muffins, Eugene's life begins to change in extraordinary ways. Eugene Schumaker, a train and oil CEO and amateur entomologist, is fascinated by the aliens and studies them as if they were bugs in his display case, hoping to become the world's first alienologist. His corporate rivals, however, see Eugene's interest in the aliens as a cause for alarm. Believing he plans to steal the aliens' technology to dominate the freight market, they resort to sabotage and extortion to weaken their rival. Eugene teams up with his friends-renowned baker Rosaline Browning and disaffected marketing director Winston Perry-to protect their livelihoods and the aliens from the deep-pocketed villains. However, they soon become pawns in a high-stakes game between companies as secrets are stolen and businesses are reduced to rubble. Eugene, disgusted by the job he never wanted, realizes his path to happiness lies in destroying his business before it destroys him.
