Summary
ACT 3: They do! Doug finds out Ethan and his girlfriend, Priya, are engaged and expecting a baby. Devastated Doug undoes all the good he's done by acting out at school and runs away. Doug begs Carl for help. Carl finds an underground ice cream man who can fix Doug's mess. At the meeting point, Doug saves a toddler from getting hit by a train, but misses the rendezvous and his last hope. Ethan and Francine find Doug. He'll always be family; families stick together. The next day at the school play, fifth grade bullies sabotage the performance. Julia is in tears. Doug makes a heart-felt speech about her kindness and belief in her students. He saves the day and transforms back into a grown up! Over the next 8 months, he gets his act together and becomes a responsible adult. Doug is asked to be the godfather to Ethan and Priya's son.

LITTLE MAN:
A hysterical irreverent comedy! "SHALLOW HAL" meets "13 GOING ON 30"...with a generous, dusting of "SUPERBAD." Our all-star cast absolutely destroys this script...guaranteed. You'll laugh out loud!
Imagine a world where karma is a magic blue popsicle. LITTLE MAN is a comedy about a foul-mouthed loser who gets an unwanted "do-over" as an 8 year-old. But to turn back into a grown-up, this little d-bag has 10 days to become a decent human being or he'll stay a kid forever. It's hard to be good when you've been bad for so long. Time's running out. Tick tock!
