Farah loves being in a musical band. But instead of being a helpful member, she's thinking only of herself. At rehearsal, after one more interruption, the band members ask her to leave. Upset that night Farah falls asleep. In her dream there's a loud unruly guitar-playing virus running loose in her body that needs to be treated. Nilus the Sandman follows as a shrunken Farah enters her own body and tries to fix things herself. But Farah is hardly a doctor. As the virus multiplies and spreads, a viral rock concert builds in her body making Farah sicker and sicker. Will Nilus be able to help her before its too late? The answer helps Farah see how self-centered she's been and the next day, after she asks the members of the band for a second chance, they all get back to rehearsing. 08DR PI 30 min.
