Donnie and Ted are wrapping up a date, what Donnie tries to suss is their first date, and what Ted seems to suggest is their only date. It's a familiar situation, but only a few of us have committed to asking the question that Donnie does, "Why didn't we spark?" What follows is a journey where two people move from being guarded to vulnerable, to delicate, to honest, to rejection, to acceptance. This is an effective short about pride, shame, and diving deep to discover which one you are placing upon others, and which one fuels you from the inside.
