DUDLEY is an adolescent frog who desperately wants to escape the controlling ways of his father, ARTHUR, the mayor of frog town. Dudley’s dearest wish is to be a cool dude in the eyes of his peers, but unfortunately the local streetwise gang, led by a sassy newt named MADGE, think he’s a wimp and a daddy’s boy. Somehow DUDLEY has to convince MADGE that he’s worthy of her friendship and acceptance. He gets his chance when an alien spaceship crashes into the pond and gets stuck in the mud. The small group of aliens on board, benefitting from highly advanced miniaturising technology, is on a mission to suck up all the water on Earth and sell it to other planets in the galaxy for vast profit.
