“Oinus, Ainous, Anous, Odious.”

Somewhere between a teenage writer's notebook and a bestseller, the same story has ended up under two different names. Benjamin (Michael Angarano) came to a fantasy writers' convention with his tale of Bronco, a hero played in his pages by Sam Rockwell, and found Ronald Chevalier (Jemaine Clement) selling it as his own. Jared Hess sets the whole thing among folding tables and name tags, with Benjamin's mother, Judith (Jennifer Coolidge), hovering nearby.
