What kind of plant is this?

My friend has this plant that is a a bit Little Shop of Horrors. By day it is ecstatic and perky (like pictured in the photo link), and at night, it gets all emo and starts listening to Dashboard Confessional. Anyone know what kind of plant this is? image here

It's a prayer plant, maranta leuconeura.

Make sure you cut off the little white flowers that will bloom. They're not beautiful and they'll make the plant get all leggy.

My Aloe likes the Eagles. Can't think why.
