Plot

Trapped in a monotonous cycle of fleeting romances, lawyer Phillip Reed yearns for a connection deeper than one-night stands. His life takes an unexpected turn when he crosses paths with Gloria Franklin, a lively yet mysterious woman, at the city zoo. Captivated by each other's company, they engage in a charming pretense, with Gloria introducing herself as Marsha Lyons. As Phillip is left awaiting a call he believes will never come, Gloria discovers her fiancé's infidelity. Furious and heartbroken, she decides to turn the tables and have a last fling of her own before her impending nuptials. She invites Phillip to join her on a whirlwind weekend getaway to the vibrant beaches of Acapulco, Mexico, a journey filled with unexpected mishaps, including a fiery car breakdown and an unusual hitchhike with local farm workers. Once in Acapulco, they find solace in a beautiful home owned by Gloria's parents, indulging in a world of exotic cuisines, rhythmic dances, and shared secrets. Their thrilling escapade culminates in a passionate night, stirring deeper feelings within Phillip. However, the morning light reveals Gloria's disappearance, with only a videotaped confession revealing her true identity and engagement, and the fact that their passionate night was intended as her own version of a pre-marital last fling. Haunted by her absence, Phillip resolves to find Gloria and halt her wedding, driven by an unshakable belief in their mutual affection. The chase leads him to the very altar, where he must convince Gloria of their shared destiny. In a heart-stopping climax, Gloria abandons her philandering fiancé, and together with Phillip, they revisit the zoo, the place where their unforgettable fling first began.
