Frankie and Dolores are two young people on a vacation by the sea. Their neighbour is a certain Professor Sutwell, an eccentric anthropologist who is collecting scientific data to evaluate his theory that the young people in socalled civilized society do not behave differently from young natives in the South Sea islands. The young duo's vacation is not all roses. They soon fight. He goes on the trail of Ava, a waitress. She accepts the hotter and hotter advances of Eric, a local gang leader. Protessor Sutwell takes up the role of the deus ex machina, acting in a way that Frankie and Dolores make up and he himself discovers his soulmate in Marianne, his secretary.
