Where the Bears Are

- Season 1

(2012)

Roommates Nelson Dorkoff, Reggie Hatch and Wood Burns wake up the morning after a blow out party at their house to find a hot young bear cub in bed with Nelson and a very dead body in their bathtub.

The bears have trouble remembering the dead guy in their bathtub from Nelson's birthday party the night before while Nelson's gorgeous young trick Hot Toddy starts acting suspicious.

A sexy detective (Chad Sanders) shows up at the house to question the bears about the body in their bathtub, and it quickly becomes clear the roommates will be suspects if J Cub's death is ruled a homicide.

When the Bears receive word that J Cub's death has been ruled a homicide, they start investigating on their own and find an important clue the cops missed. Meanwhile, Hot Toddy shows up and asks Nelson out on a real date.

Wood seeks out his high school prom date who is now Los Angeles County Coroner Susie Collins to find out how J Cub died and is startled to learn that Susie is still harboring feelings for him.

The bears work hard to clear their names before they're arrested by following the trail of the poison that was found on J Cub's martini glass. Meanwhile, Reggie and Wood question why Nelson's new boyfriend Hot Toddy seems to be too busy to be interviewed by the police about the night of the murder.

Nelson pays a visit to Honey Garrett, the chef who catered his birthday party, and manages to upset the shooting of her reality cooking show before finding out some very disturbing news about Hot Toddy.

The Bears track down Hot Toddy to Elysian Park where they're forced to endure an incredibly intense Boot Camp Training exercise class before finally questioning him about the night of the murder.

After studying a cell phone video from the night of the party, the Bears hunt down a party crasher who turns out to be a fanatical fan of Wood's from his Colt modeling days, but who also has a key piece of information about the murder.

While questioning Wood's obsessive fan George Ridgemont, Nelson and Reggie discover that Wood has his own web cam show, and while watching a live feed, are shocked to see a masked intruder ransacking their house.

Nelson is forced to return to his old acting class to question his arch nemesis and former comedy duo partner Dickie Calloway about his thorny relationship with the murder victim and the two wind up in an improv stand off.

Reggie and Wood reunite with an old friend, drag queen Jackie Beat, who witnessed J Cub having an intense fight with his date, a local bar owner, during one of her performances the night before his murder.

Nelson (Ben Zook) plans the perfect date with Hot Toddy (Ian Parks), a romantic meal on the back patio, but he can't help sabotaging the entire evening by continually bringing up Todd's connection to J Cub's murder and his obvious reluctance to talk to the police. J Cub: Julio Tello.

Nelson ignores mounting suspicion surrounding Hot Toddy, and convinces Reggie and Wood that the person they should be focusing on is Ramon Santiago, the owner of an LA leather bar, who had a rocky relationship with the murder victim.

The Bears go undercover as a bouncer, a patron and a contestant in a bear chest contest at an LA leather bar in order to get close to Ramon Santiago who might be guilty of murder.

While Nelson (Ben Zook) competes in the Mr. Bear Chest 2012 contest hosted by Hot Toddy (Ian Parks), Reggie and Wood search for clues implicating Ramon Santiago (Mario Sanchez) in J Cub's murder.

Wood tries talking his way out of a whole lot of trouble when Ramon catches him with the combination to his safe written on his hand. Meanwhile, Reggie gets grabbed by Ramon's thug Thor.

Wood sets out in search of Reggie unaware that he has been kidnapped by Ramon and his two goons Hulk and Thor, who want to trade him for some dangerous evidence that could send Santiago to prison.

Nelson and Wood enlist the aid of Detective Chad Winters (Chad Sanders) when they set up an exchange in a remote parking lot hoping to get back Reggie (Rick Copp) who is being held hostage by Ramon (Mario Sanchez).

When the Bears follow a lead to a comedy club to question comedian Bruce Daniels (playing himself) about his run-in with the murder victim, Nelson (Ben Zook) decides to dust off his stand up act with disastrous results. Comedian Shawn Pelofsky also appears as herself. Reggie: Rick Copp. Wood: Joe Dietl.

Tension between the Bears over Hot Toddy's involvement in J Cub's murder reach a boiling point resulting in Nelson choosing his new boyfriend over his two best friends.

While Reggie and Wood frantically search for a missing Nelson, Detective Chad Winters shows up at the Bears' house with the smoking gun that connects Hot Toddy to J Cub's murder.

A romantic weekend in Palm Springs is disrupted when Nelson starts to suspect his roommates were right about Hot Toddy all along, which results in a final confrontation that leads to violence.

Reggie and Wood arrive at the Palm Springs condo to rescue Nelson, but their friend is nowhere to be found because he is about to become the killer's next victim during a frightening desert showdown.
