Synopsis
Warren Otis spends a lot of time making up monster movies in his head -- like the one starring Bubbles, the two-thousand pound goldfish. It's much better than thinking about his mother, whom he hasn't seen in three years. Besides, Warren is convinced she'll come home someday and make everything okay. Could Warren possibly be right, or is his wish just a daydream -- like his movies?
