An absurdist look at the increasing alienation of humanity from the rest of nature fostered by technology and marketing. A middle-aged couple lives dependent on television for all their information, intellectual guidance, and material needs. Their complacency becomes challenged when the wife, Lillian, becomes enchanted by a flower that appears in a commercial and eventually inspires her to want to create a garden. She and husband Roscoe soon learn that they have so surrendered to the world of TV, that there is no longer any outside world - they’d neglected to notice that their house no longer even has doors or windows. As Roscoe struggles to keep their existence and behavior within the rules required for them to achieve their ultimate goal - becoming sexy - Lillian, guided by her heart, is determined that she will somehow make the garden a reality - and is willing to part ways with Roscoe and the TV if necessary.
