Summaries

A charming womanizer must find a way to get $80 to elope to Hawaii with his one true love, or else go to his father's chosen business school.

A recent high-school graduate is faced with two options: either go to the business school his father wants him to attend; or get a full-time job. However, he decides to defy his father and go to Hawaii. The trouble is, he has no money. Along the way he comes to understand his parents and eventually bonds with his father.—Mark Andrew Radford <[email protected]>
