Pilot
The pilot follows a day in the life of Douglas otherwise know by his friends as T-Kesh, a monster and his experience trying to fit in at his high school. The pilot starts off with T-Kesh introducing himself while a disembodied voice asks him a series of questions. The pilot continues on following T-Kesh through a mockumentary or docucomedy style filming his entire day in school. T-Kesh during his lunch period with no ill intentions points at someone and claims that they are the human version of him. The person who T-Kesh remarked as being the human version of himself takes offense and states that they will fight after school. T-Kesh while on his way to fight runs into his friend Lucas (voiced by Cole Sanchez). Lucas surprised by fact that T-Kesh is going to fight somebody asks who is he going to fight, which then leads him to realize the bully (voiced by Ian Jones-Quartey) attends his church. Lucas goes to talk to the bully to de-escalate the situation. Leading the bully to realize being the human version of T-Kesh isn't so bad in turn, T-Kesh apologizes for pointing at him. This even leads to the start of a friendship between T-Kesh and the bully.
