SPRINGFIELD DUECE
THE DUECE IS A THIRTY MINUTE COMEDY SHOW FOR NETWORK TELEVISION. IT REVOLVES AROUND A GROUP OF FIREFIGHTERS WORKING IN AN OLD BUILDING IN THE INNER-CITY. THEY GET ALL TYPES OF CALL-OUTS AND THEIR STATION IS ONE OF THE BUSIEST IN THE CITY. THE NAME COMES FROM THE STATION, SPRINGFIELD STATION #2, AFFECTIONATELY CALLED THE DUECE.
THE STATION IS ALL MALE UP UNTIL THE FIRST SHOW WHERE A FEMALE FRESH OUT OF THE FIREFIGHTING ACADEMY IS ASSIGNED TO THE STATION. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE PLENTY OF WOMEN WORKING IN FIRE STATIONS THROUGHOUT THE CITY, THE DUECE IS NEW TO THIS. THE MAIN REASON IS THE BUILDING IS OLD AND WILL NEED MAJOR UPGRADES TO ACCOMMODATE A FEMALE AND THE CITY’S BUDGET DOESN’T HAVE THE FUNDS TO MAKE THEM.
THE NEW FEMALE HAS REQUESTED TO BE ASSIGNED AT THE DUECE, THROUGH HER UNCLE WHO IS THE CITY COUNCIL PRESIDENT, WHO MAKES IT HAPPEN. SHE HAPPENS TO BE YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL WHICH MAKES THESE STUDLY FIREMEN CRAZY WITH DESIRE. SHE ALSO CAUSES NUMEROUS PROBLEMS BY TAKING TOO LONG IN THE ONLY BATHROOM AND SHOWER. THE STATION CAPTAIN HAS TO GIVE UP HIS PRIVATE BEDROOM AND NOW BUNK WITH HIS OFFICERS.
THE SHOW IS FROUGHT WITH SEXY PEOPLE. THE CAPTAIN HAS A YOUNG GEORGEOUS COLLEGE AGED DAUGHTER WHO VISITS HIM AT WORK ALL THE TIME FOR MONEY AND TO CHECK OUT THE HOT FIREFIGHTERS. THESE CHARACTERS ARE CONTINUALLY PLACED IN SEXUAL TENSION SITUATIONS.
AS THE SEASONS PROGRESS, THESE CHARACTERS WILL BE SHOWN IN SEXY CLOTHING. THE FIREFIGHTERS WILL BE SHOWN WORKING OUT IN VARIOUS WORK-OUT CLOTHING.
FUTURE EPISODES WILL COVER THE FOLLOWING:
AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FIELD TRIP TO THE STATION WHERE THE SCHOOL HAS ALL OF THE MOTHERS SIGNING UP AS CHAPERONES TO GET NEAR THE HOT FIREMEN.
THE CAPTAIN’S DAUGHTER GETS CAUGHT FLIRTING TOO MUCH WITH ONE OF THE FIREMAN, WHO WANTS HER BUT IS AFRAID OF THE CAPTAIN.
THE MARRIED FIREMEN’S WIVES AREN’T HAPPY THAT A YOUNG, HOT WOMAN IS NOW SLEEPING, SHOWERING AND EATING AT THE STATION.
THROUGHOUT EACH EPISODE THE STORYLINE WILL INCLUDE REAL SITUATIONS THAT FIREFIGHTERS/RESCUE/PARAMEDIC PERSONNEL FACE. THESE SITUATIONS WILL INVOLVE DEATH, SERIOUS INJURIES TO CITIZENS AS WELL AS THEIR CO-WORKERS, BIRTHS, FIRES, ETC.
