Hubris Towers Season 1, Episode 2
A Harrowing Beginning

Ben Y. Faroe, Billie Hoard


It's time for Jimmy Acorn to prove once and for all that he has what it takes to be the new concierge of Hubris Towers. The only problem is—well, he doesn't.

With his reputation staked on an impossible intercom repair and a frenetic training schedule devised specially by his conniving boss Mr. Schwartz, it’s going to be all Jimmy can do to keep his head above water on his first day at Hubris Towers.

Add a growing list of errands, a band of Russians, a Frenchman, a duckling, and some very poor directions, and Jimmy will need every ounce of luck and ingenuity he can muster—and maybe a little help from his new friends—if he’s going to have any chance of staying at Hubris Towers.

And then there’s the little matter of his hat…
