Agent number 67, nicknamed Pygmy for his diminutive size, arrives in the United States from his totalitarian homeland (a mixture of North Korea, Cuba, Communist China and Nazi Germany) as an 'exchange student', staying with a host family in the Midwest. 'Host cow father' (he works in the biological weapons complex outside of town), 'chicken neck mother', 'pig dog brother', and the disconcertingly self-possessed 'cat sister' introduce Pygmy to the rituals of postmodern American life, which he views with utter contempt. Along with his fellow operatives, all indoctrinated into the mindset of the totalitarian state, he is planning something big, something truly, truly awful, that will bring this stupid country and its fat, stupid inhabitants to their knees.
