Arbie and Wendy just finished high school. They celebrate it by having sex on a burial ground of a local Tromahawk tribe, and during the act they promise that while Wendy is leaving town to study, they will stay true to each other. A year later, Arbie meets Wendy again, on a protest the American Chicken Bunker fast-food net's intrusions against rich cultural history of the area and their slaughter of millions of innocent chickens. But alas -- in the meantime, she became left-wing Lipstick Lesbian liberal. In disgust over it, and to spite his ex-girlfriend, Arbie gets a job at the American Chicken Bunker. One problem: that transgression against local cultural history? It's built on that Indian burial ground.
