Lily Loren Horsley, a shy, wistful girl, is a songwriter when no one is listening. She works as a cashier at a fast food restaurant and has a crush from afar on Jarrod Jemaine Clement, a geek who works in a video game store. Jarrod is more interested in Lilys workmate, Jenny Chelsie Preston Crayford. With Jenny not at work one day, Jarrod gives Lily an invitation to his dress as your favourite animal party to pass along to her, but Jenny crumples it up and throws it away upon receiving it. Lily retrieves it from the rubbish.The party is sparsely attended with what are apparently teenage and adult customers of Jarrods store, all dressed extravagantly as their favourite animal. Jarrod is impressed with Lilys shark costume as well as her savantlike video game skills, making it to the finals of a Fight Man video game competition, though she loses to defending champion, Jarrod because she spends their contest staring at him. They go to Jarrods room and he questions Lily and learns her parents are dead, having had heart attacks. He says both his brother, Gordon, and his mother are dead. He says his mother died by getting kicked in the head by a cow. They kiss and have brief sex. ........
