An alcoholic young man demands inheritance money from the uncle who's executor of his father's estate. The uncle refuses, but makes his nephew an offer: he'll give him $15,000 if he'll travel to the South Seas and murder a man named Jake Finch. The trip to the islands involves a three-week cruise on a schooner where the sad drunk has time to reevaluate his life.

Linda spends a week at a resort with her divorced sister while her husband stays behind in the city. She enjoys the attention of a fellow guest who flirts with her shamelessly; he jokes that he should murder her husband so that they can be together. At least she thinks he's joking until he calls her New York City apartment. It' a good thing her sister intercepts the phone call.
