Seen from above, Dot is just another dot, barely distinguishable from a bug, a berry, or gum on the pavement. Up close, she has a magnificent but mysterious hubby, a collection of tea cosies swiped from old ladies, and the perfect face for her era. She also has a fatal flaw. So Dot decides to end it all. But Dot blows it!
