Bruised and beaten, arm in a sling, neck in a brace,
Arthur Poppington (Woody Harrelson) sits in front of
court appointed psychologist Dr. Park (Sandra Oh).
“Why did you attack Mr. Debrofkowitz and destroy his
business?” Dr. Park asks gently. After making her
swear to secrecy, Poppington begins to tell the story
of his secret life as “Defendor.” By day, Poppington
directs traffic around road construction sites, but by
night he dons a pair of black tights, a black jersey
with a crude “D” duct-taped to his chest, and trawls
the streets in search of his arch-enemy, Captain Industry. In his
attempts to combat crime and bring down this drug and weapons dealer who he
mistakenly blames for the death of his mother, Defendor ends up befriending a
young prostitute, Katerina Debrofkowitz (Dennings). Armed with
unconventional weapons of mass confusion, and aided by his new
friend, Defendor proves that everyone is capable of making a difference as he
puts his life on the line.
