Sending flowers should hit the right chord, shouldn't it? Kevin considered himself clueless when it came to romance, with little experience in wooing girls. He was a stereotypical guy who thought roses were the go-to gift, but Mr. Lopez intended to send flowers to all the directors, so roses were obviously out of the question! Other teams had female directors, after all! Dorothy blinked. Only then did she realize why Everett had mentioned sending flowers several times.
