"Scoop" Johnson:  When Tom Selleck's mustache was granted a wish, it chose to come to life as a real boy and expose corrupt government officials and organized crime as a boy reporter.  Unfortunately, Tom Selleck wasn't going to take the loss of his mustache laying down, and began a campaign of arson, violence, and cannibalism in an effort to get it back!  Can "Scoop" stop them man whose face he once grew out of?
