Eddie didn't feel like going back to college after Christmas break. Just sick of it, you know. The books. The classes. The uppity know-it-all profs lecturing him on every subject under the sun.
Well, a month or so goes by wherein Ed stays out late and sleeps till noon before the old man reads him the riot act: Get a job, go back to school, or hit the road.
Ed finds the cushiest job on planet earth: plant waterer. At Flo's Florist. He can get high, play some tunes, and water away. Easy as pie.
Till the day Benjamin the delivery guy gets sick and Flo tells Eddie he has to drive and deliver.
And that day just happens to be Valentine's Day. The busiest day of the year in the flower biz. Ed doesn't make a dozen deliveries before the proverbial shit hits the fan.
