The events in the literary work.
Eliza Doolittle, a young flower girl, wants to improve her life of poverty by speaking proper English, which Henry Higgins can teach. Henry Higgins and Colonel Pickering offer to take her in and make a bet that if Henry can pass Eliza off as a duchess in six months, Pickering would pay for all her costs. For the next six months, Eliza undergoes a transformation of appearance, speech, and manners and endures the tests of her skills in upper class events. Throughout her time with Higgins and Pickering, she transforms from a naïve flower girl to a confident lady. Eliza wins the bet for Higgins, and finds out that Higgins developed feelings for her. Another man, Freddy, is in love with her as well, but he treat her much better than Higgins does even though Henry offers her an independence that she would lose in a marriage. The play ends with an open ended ending for the audience/readers to interpret for themselves.
