Rosalind rejects Larry, and the next day, as directed, he takes her for a ride on his plane but then ignores orders and flies away from the movie set and lands on an island where they first met. They dance to music from Larry's portable radio, and Rosalind becomes attracted to him. When they return, problems rise to the fore–including a possible court martial for Larry's improper conduct. But, by story's end, Rosalind and Larry are preparing to live happily ever after.
