Synopsis :
Like Romancing the Stone, the opening scene takes place in one of Joan’s novels. But this time, instead of Joan’s wild-west supercouple, Jesse and Angelina, Joan and Jack are the featured heroes. As the movie starts Jack and Joan are on an old sailing ship. They’re getting married. Suddenly, pirates attack the ship. Jack leads a brief counterattack against the pirates, but eventually the pirates take the ship. Joan manages to hold them off by tossing a lit torch over a spilled barrel of oil, setting the deck of the ship aflame as the survivors get to the lifeboats. By the time Jack and Joan reach the lifeboats, there’s only room enough for one more. Joan gives the seat to Jack and he leaves without her. Now she’s alone and surrounded by pirates. It seems she’s doomed. And then…
We return to reality, where Joan is sitting on the deck of the Angelina, struggling to finish her novel and Jack is out on the ocean, water-skiing past her. Frustrated, she gives up and tosses her typewriter overboard. As it sinks to the bottom, it descends past a diver, then observes him as he places an object against the hull of the Angelina…
