A geeky pot plant attempts to woo a more elegant pot plant, when he succeeds he celebrates in all geek style

In a near empty Florists Webster the geeky spider plant has fallen for Delilah the daffodil and goes about gussying himself to impress her. He begins to woo her and Delilah finds that she quite likes him and gives him a big kiss. Webster becomes stunned and then goes about celebrating his success with a giddy dance getting out of his pot. He returns to his pot and receives another kiss

Act 1- Webster sees Delilah and is infatuated by her; he goes about making himself presentable. Act 2- Webster starts to woo Delilah and is rewarded with a kiss which sends him into a trance. Act 3- Webster performs a celebratory geeky/giddy dance only to be kissed again.

INT. FLORISTS- DAY Delilah the daffodil stands elegantly in her plant pot. Webster looks dreamily after her. He makes himself look presentable, combing his leaves, pinging them into place and checking himself out in the window. Webster struts over to Delilah. Both flowers flirt shyly. Webster gives Delilah his decorative bow. Delilah giggles happily. Webster forms a heart with a couple of his leaves. Delilah gives him a kiss. Webster goes into shock sending his leaves upright. He wobbles across the table top dizzily. When he realizes what he achieved he leaps into the air leaving his pot. Webster dances around outside his pot, spinning around and doing backflips. Returning to his pot Webster performs a final spin. Delilah is beside him again giggling. She gives him another kiss.

FADE IN EXT. FLORISTS- DAY A nearly cleaned out Florist front sets the scene, the window display gets nearer and nearer. FADE IN INT. FLORISTS DAY A daffodil by the name of DELILAH stands elegantly in her pot draining in the sun pouring from the window. The spider plant WEBSTER is looking longingly at her and sighs. An idea springs to mind. Webster goes about gussying himself up. He attempts to flatten his leaves into place and adjusting the bow on his pot.

Webster heads over to Delilah trying to seem casual and collected. Delilah notices him and becomes curious, waiting for him to make the next move. Webster undoes the bow on his pot and invites Delilah to take it. Delilah giggles and accepts. Delilah now has the bow on her pot and Webster has formed a heart shape with a couple of his leaves. Again Delilah giggles but this time she leans in and kisses Webster.

Webster goes into shock; his leaves shoot into the air as if electrified.

In a trance Webster proceeds to dizzily move about the window shelf. Webster shakes himself back to reality and realising what he has achieved leaps into the air in celebration leaving his pot. Webster the pot less spider plant dreamily dances around spinning and performing backflips and leaps. He finally returns to his pot and has a final spin. Delilah can be seen giggling and proceeds to elegantly move closer to him. She awards him with another kiss. HEART SHAPE TRANSITION TO BLACK
