Released: 2012

Storyline: In 1985, 8-year-old John Bennett is a friendless only child living in Norwood, Massachusetts, a suburb of Boston. On Christmas Day, he wished for his new gift, a jumbo teddy bear named Ted, to come to life and become his friend. The wish coincides with a shooting star and comes true; word spreads, and Ted briefly becomes a celebrity.

In 2012, John, now 35, and Ted are living together in an apartment in Boston with John's girlfriend Lori Collins. They are staunch companions enjoying a hedonistic life. As John and Lori's 4th anniversary approaches, Lori hopes to marry John but feels he cannot move forward in life with Ted around. John is hesitant about making Ted leave, but he is persuaded to act when they find Ted at home with a group of prostitutes, including one who defecated on the floor, after their anniversary dinner.
