Helen, a high school student dressed and ready for her junior prom, answers the phone to talk to her friend Margaret. A narrator explains how women are more trained than men when it comes to dress etiquette because of the importance of their appearance. Margaret sits on the couch next to her father, dressed in her prom attire. As the girls converse, the narrator says that most girls are inclined to overdress.
