☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis is an anthology issue containing at least three stories. The lead story features Candy dealing with her boyfriend's messy appearance and disorganization, leading to romantic mishaps when she attempts to transform him for a movie audition, ultimately resulting in slapstick chaos on the street. A second story, "Jitters," depicts two anthropomorphic plant characters operating what appears to be a botanical nursery or garden display, where they encounter bugs and deal with caddie-related situations. A third story involves a romantic mix-up centered around a Brent Wood autograph, where a character named Ted crashes while piloting a plane, leading to complications with a mission accomplished message and various comedic entanglements with the female characters surrounding the autograph's delivery.
Jitters sets his sights on Lorna at the fancy Ritz Country Club, sneaking in as a caddie to get close to her—but a mishap with her father's prized roses gets him banned from the premises. Determined to win over Lorna's dad and get back in the family's good graces, Jitters devises a plan to enter flowers in the upcoming flower show under her father's name, betting that a prize will turn things around. When the flower show arrives, Jitters' scheme backfires in spectacularly embarrassing fashion, proving that some shortcuts just aren't worth taking.
