Like all close pals, Hank (Lansing) and Namu love spending time together. Whether sharing a morning swim or soaking up the afternoon sun, these two are virtually inseparable.

Racing against time, Hank must enlist the help of a young widow and her daughter to save Namu and prove that he's a gentle giant!
