Raya, a four year old little girl has a complete panic attack at the prospect of getting a Flu shot. In her over-imaginative, over-dramatic and over-exaggerated mind, she builds up the procedure and turns it into a much bigger deal than it actually is, before it even happens. This story reflects the irrational anxiety young children(and sometimes older children or even adults in some cases) have over getting an injection, and portrays their fear of needles in a comical way, with reactions which involve Raya fleeing the scene before the doctor has a chance to give her the shot, and running away, down several flights of stairs to escape her nightmare, with the doctor, her mother and her sister at her heels in hot pursuit. But in the end, she realizes that it really is not that big of a deal and understands the irrationality of this fear, and the fact that sometimes we build things up in our heads and unnecessarily make them so much bigger than the reality.
