Plot
The film opens in Maui, Hawaii, where ten-year-old Ray T. Robinson is about to surf in the nearby ocean. He then spots a purple butterfly. Ray names it "Charla", until he decides to stop surfing and get some rest. The next day, Ray's parents, Diana and Robert, take Ray to the clinic. There, Ray sees Charla again, until he decides to touch her. After, Ray has some problems and is taken back home. Ray explains the problems to Diana and Robert, until he sees that he is far-sighted and fatter than usual.

In bed that night, Ray reminsences the day's events, until Diana and Robert return from their date, finding Ray unconsciousness and needing to breathe. Days later, Ray is magically warped into a jungle, where he finds an acid named BRTFL-2612. Voices whisper around Ray's head, in which storms appear from the sky. Ray then attempts to drink the acid, causing bits of purple potion to surround him. Copies of Charla also fly around in the jungle until the storms finally hit Ray. At a local doctor's office, Ray wakes up from this dream.

Weeks pass, with Ray still affected by the acid and the butterfly. Diana tells Robert and Ray that she has found a cure to Ray's problem, encouraging Robert to write a song. Days later, the problem is finally solved, and Robert's song is finally sent to radio.
