==Plot==
''Bagboy'' is a fictional television pilot for a sitcom created by Dr. Steve Brule for Channel 5. Shelved for its "substandard quality and low entertainment value",〔 it begins with an introduction by Pablo Myers, owner of Myer's Super Foods, along with his family. After the opening with Steve injuring himself after mopping the floor inside of Myer's Super Foods, Steve is shown stocking some produce when he is asked by Micky Dolenz (of The Monkees fame) where the bananas are. After pointing to them, Brule is asked by cashier Daisy to bag customer Doug Prishpreed's cans. Prishpreed offers her a VIP ticket to the ''Dumpster Dive'' show featuring himself before rudely taking away his bags from Steve. Afterwards, Steve attempts to reveal his true affections for her when he is interrupted by his coworker Chip, who says that he has two tickets for a Twisted Chains concert.
Myers suddenly calls all employees to his office for an emergency meeting. When they get there, he announces that there has been an increase in shoplifters, and that any employee who captures one will be granted ten free cans of food from their stock. After fantasizing about the reward, Brule goes on the look out behind where the haughty Mrs. Livingstone is shopping. After being scolded by Livingstone for scaring her, he decides to go over to the CCTV feed to search for any shoplifters. When he sees a young boy, who turns out out to be Daisy's little brother Charlie, stealing a candy bar, he contemplates with his imaginary friend "Dog" whether he should let him go free or turn him in—the latter potentially souring his relationship with Daisy. Myers then appoints Steve to work the night shift to look out for any other shoplifters.
At night, Steve attempts to look throughout the aisles. After playing with security guard Terry's gun, he goes off to snack on some horse meat, when he thinks of how disciplining Charlie would not be the right course of action. Just then, he hears a strange sound coming from butcher Brown's cutting room, and when he goes in, he finds Charlie tied to a piece of meat. Steve argues that punishing Charlie for shoplifting by grinding him up is unwarranted, but Brown says that he is doing so for the joy of murder. After bargaining with Brown in exchange for 25 of Myer's cans, he finally lets Charlie go. At the parking lot, Brule tells Charlie not to steal so that he grows up to be a "cool guy" and not a "dumb hunk" like Chip. As he lashes out on Chip, Charlie offers that if he lets him off, he will put a good word in with Daisy. The two agree, and in the morning, when Steve reports to Myers that he did not catch anyone, Myers gives him ten cans for staying late.
