Two men and one woman are in a kitchen. Each is sitting or standing on a different surface: the woman is on a table in the middle, one man is sitting on the counter, and one man is standing on a stool. The Counter man is holding up a calendar that says "23" and saying, “Fellas, I feel this is my lucky day: March 23rd.”Now the stool man and kitchen table woman are standing by the wink. The stool man is holding the calendar, which now says "24". One of them is saying, “Now hold on, your lucky day’s the 24th. It’s 1:30 already, it’s morning.”The three people are now dancing in the kitchen. The woman wears a dress with a swingy skirt, and her arms are linked with a white man on either side. Both of them are wearing suit vests and trousers. They're all smiling as they lift their feet to begin the dance. “[Singing] Good morning, good morning!”
