The document is a script that follows a boy and girl as they go through their morning routines before leaving for school. It shows them both waking up to alarms, getting ready separately by brushing teeth, applying makeup and styling hair. They then hurriedly eat breakfast while being rushed by their mother, grab their bags and coats, and exit their homes, walking in opposite directions down the street without noticing each other. In the final shot, they pass each other on the street and do a double take, realizing they are mirror images of each other's morning routine.
