Lily (Loren Horsley), a shy, wistful girl, is a songwriter when no one is listening. She works at a fast food restaurant and has a crush on Jarrod (Jemaine Clement), a geek who works in a video game store. One day, Jarrod gives Lily an invitation to his "dress as your favourite animal" party to pass along to her workmate Jenny, who throws it away; Lily retrieves it and shows up at the party with her caring and supportive brother Damon.
