Adam went to school where he was a social outcast, often bullied by Tony, Dale, and Garcia and exempt buy the rest of his peers who treated him with mockery. However, a girl named Emma treated him with kindness because she had a crush on him (which was mutual) but he didn't acknowledge her, due to his bad luck.

Adam later discovered letters his mother sent to his father who was still alive. He lashed out at her and ran away from his home to locate his father that night.

Adam woke up in the forest, where he finds his father. At first, Adam refused to believe this especially because his father was Bigfoot. However, he is amazed by the latter's powers and finds that he has inherited them.

A tabloid magazine reveals Eastman has been arrested while the Harrison Family's life changes since Bigfoot has now come to live with them as well as his animal buddies. The family dynamic is showing to be a very loving one as Adam now has both his parents and his parents are making up for lost time.

On his way to school, Adam is accosted by his bullies who attempt to harass him but having gone on his journey he calmly avoids their hazing and kindly tells them to leave him alone, since he had enough. After they refuse to comply, Adam summons his animal buddies who scare them into leaving him alone while secretly dismantling their bikes to make them crash as further punishment for the harassment of Adam, who sees and laughs. Adam has the animals leave before Emma walks by and noticed the scene. Adam, starting to show he likes her, nervously greets Emma and offers to tell her on the way to school, which she quickly accepts and says she thought that he never asked. When his large feet burst out his shoes, Emma laughs while stating he was different and that's something she likes. Pleased to meet someone who accepted him while deciding to use sandals. After Adam tied his shoes to a power line, he and Emma started their walk and she had him slow down to tell her his story, which he started to figure out on how to describe.
