Footloose Parody Gets Weird Fast

In a 1950s-style diner in a town where singing and dancing have been outlawed, leather-jacketed newcomer Roustabout persuades the local teens that there are no wrong answers when you follow the song inside you. As the group joins in a Footloose-style number, each teen confesses a modest dream, except one, whose secret ambition is to set loose the pack of wolves he has raised in his basement. Roustabout tries ever more desperately to steer the lesson toward being a socially acceptable version of yourself, but each new verse only adds more detail to the wolf plan, from the blood moon to a public pool baited with chicken, until he finally presses the release button and declares himself a lone wolf.

Aired in Studio C's 2019 Halloween special (Season 10, Episode 5). Writer Tanner Gillman also plays Roustabout.
