THE SPOTS
"Boy and Girl" (:30) takes place in a classroom where a young boy with a cold stares at a female schoolmate, who is obviously not interested in him. Another girl offers him a Kleenex tissue, which he blows his nose with, and afterwards drops used on the thoughtful girl’s desk. The boy then turns around and continues to stare at the other girl. In "Baby" (:15), a dad tries to amuse his infant by showing the child stuffed animals, all of which wind up tossed on the floor. He finally wipes the baby’s nose with a Kleenex and the infant cheers up instantly.
Spots broke in July.
