Think: Anyone But You meets Six Days, Seven Nights 

SYNOPSIS:

Patrick loves his high-paying job, the life it gives him, and Jessica, his open-relationship partner. One evening, Patrick’s parents hit him with “settle down or you’ll regret it.” This means having a unique experience and proposing. Patrick is almost 40, it’s now or never. Jessica seems to think the same and has booked an exclusive trip to Tahiti. At work, Patrick pulls strings, sets his staff on a project they’ve discussed, and tells them he’s going to Upstate NY, but goes to Tahiti.

Patrick keeps to his proposal plan even after meeting a charming ex-Air Force pilot, Christina, with hidden pains. Jessica meets and flirts with David, another pilot. She then rejects Patrick’s proposal, says their relationship is perfect. Patrick says Jessica wants to keep the relationship open so she can romance David. She accuses him of trying to get with Christina. J Patrick is hit with a work message for an e-meeting. With no suit or backdrop to fake Upstate NY, Patrick enlists Christina to fly him to a big hotel. But a storm strands them on a remote island that may or may not be empty.

Patrick and Christina blame each other for the crash, but soon realize they must team up and head to a what should be a weather beacon on a vista. They bond via hometown stories but all goodwill fades when there is no beacon and Patrick eats their whole dinner. Patrick accuses Christina of being aimless in life unlike him. She says she lost her parents in an accident and then her Air Force career in a crew-killing crash. Tahiti was her self-exile from grief. And just then, the island proves it’s not empty as people dash out from the jungle and capture them!

At the big hotel, Jessica calls Patrick’s parents, tells them he’s missing, so they head to Tahiti. Jessica sleeps with David before they arrive and then says she accepted Patrick’s proposal.

The captors’ leader offers Patrick and Christina a near impossible choice: the prisoners’ dilemma. However, Patrick uses his business pitch skills to woo his captors with prospects of a food supply, while Christina uses her military skills for a diversion and to snag a toolbox. With another storm rolling in, they dash into the jungle, leap from a waterfall, capture a pursuing captor, and hide in a cave. Patrick and Christina bond more, she says she turns 39 tomorrow. The next morning, they spare the captured captor and dash back to Christina’s plane. They fix it just as their captors close in, but the spared one slyly foils his mates’ capture plans allowing Christina and Patrick to fly off.

Back on Haiti, Christina manages to land with Patrick’s support, but now she’s alone with no family or livelihood, unlike Patrick who has a family and fiancée. Patrick’s father remarks he’s had a truly unique experience echoing his earlier words stirring Patrick who invites Christina to a thank-you lunch… much to Jessica’s chagrin. Patrick calls his company to learn his staff held the meeting and told their boss that he went on a special vacation: to propose, thus excusing his absence.

At lunch, David shows up to congratulate fellow pilot Christina on her emergency landing and saving a life. His appearance unnerves Jessica who’s told Patrick’s parents she accepted his proposal. Patrick sees between the lines and reflects on his wild ride with Christina, but she excuses herself and goes to sulk at a bar. Patrick calls out Jessica’s dishonesty and joins Christina for her happy birthday drink and a passionate kiss.
