Storyline for 'American Fork aka Humble Pie':
At nearly 400 pounds, Tracy Orbison (Hubbel Palmer) is a wide target. When he sets out to pursue his dream of acting, the grocery clerk finds an assortment of people waiting to dash his dreams: his acting coach (William Baldwin), who has designs on his sister Peggy (24's Mary Lynn Rajskub); his juvenile-delinquent friends, who suck him into their petty crimes; and his God-fearing, self-loathing mother (Academy Award nominee Kathleen Quinlan). Through it all, Tracy remains irrepressibly upbeat, convinced he's destined for something big. | Tracy Orbison (Hubbel Palmer) is the definition of average: He's overweight, lives with an overbearing mother, fails a driving test regularly and has worked at a grocery store for 11 years. But this average guy with the heart of a poet aspires to more. Enrolling in an acting class, Tracy sets the wheels of change in motion … even if they don't go quite where he expects in this comic drama from the producer of Napoleon Dynamite.
