...then the cowboy Cary Grant and the low-rent Grace Kelly went to the Great Barrier Reef by helicopter - see you later, Amber, I got work to do - for a big lunch and a snorkel. And there amid the coral occurred a great, G-Rated Romance, Hollywood-style. (Fast-action "happiness montage" included.) They were destined to be together, you see, and besides we had a subplot to plumb: Jerri making her move (and her moves) on the king of the tribe that maybe needed a reason to keep her around. Very "To Catch a Thief," with maybe just...
