A fat male humanoid called Gruntus Primus Maximus (typically called "The Maximus") produces an entire race of yellow-eyed, and blue-haired humanoids, which are born from his noxious bodily fluids. The race is called "The Grunts". They have their own religion (which is focused on the production and consumption of cheese) and they live as a religious brotherhood in an isolated monastery within the wilderness. A brother called Perry was involuntarily elected as the "Chosen One" (the leader of the monastic order), but never wanted the pressures associated with leadership. He flees the monastery and decides to live among ordinary humans. His biological brothers (named Bing, Dean, Frank, Sammy, and Tony) decide to go on a quest to bring Perry back. Being unfamiliar with human culture, they have increasingly strange encounters with police authorities, prison inmates, outlaw biker gangs, and other supposedly normal humans. The brothers are repeatedly chased by an obsessive police detective, who is convinced that they are dangerous lunatics.
