The story concerns an elderly man named Art and his young-at-heart wife Dot, who on one magical night regain their zest for life through dance.
Tropes:
- Fountain of Youth: The rain becomes this to Art and Dot throughout the story. Whenever they're under dry skies, they revert back to their true, elderly forms.
- The Mirror Shows Your True Self: Towards the end, Art and Dot share a dance (if not as fast as before) at Paradise Pier, while the puddles reflect their younger selves. This is meant to drive home that although their bodies may not be young anymore, the both of them are now young at heart.
- Symbolism: Art starts wearing his old fedora once more when the rain mysteriously turns him young again, showing his resolve to live the best of his life while this miracle lasts. During his desperate chase towards the rain, he abandons his fedora, as though meant to signify he's no longer staying young to live life to the fullest, but rather for the sake of staying young. Dot dons it on his head later to show he doesn't need the miraculous rain to feel young.
