The marriage, founded on a slip of the pen, somehow survives years & years of dull quarrels, lots of showy New Zealand background, one of the jolliest earthquakes ever filmed, a rip-roaring attack by Hollywood Maoris (who all seem to be named "Hemo"), and the limited advances, with flaring nostrils, of Mr. Heflin, who cherishes quite a yen for his business partner's wife.

Meanwhile, back in St. Pierre, dejected Miss Reed has decided to become a nun. Sister Lana & husband get home just in time for a big, tasteless church scene in which Donna takes her vows as Lana makes calf's eyes at Donna's onetime man. The moral of all this seems to be: if you want to be happy, be sure to marry someone you don't love.
