Clio is the neighbor eccentric, a grown man who lives with his mother in Brooklyn and is obsessed with super heroes. He wants to be one himself. Clio’s sidekick is Billy, a traumatized boy who doesn’t talk. One afternoon, Clio and Billy defend the honor of some attractive cheerleaders practicing at the local high school when some tough guys yell obscenities at them. Things end badly for the errant knight and his Sancho Panza, but they soon dust themselves off, have a good laugh, and set off on their next adventure.
