[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

[BELL TOLLING]

The plane! The plane!

[WOMEN GIGGLING]

-Good morning, boss. -Good morning, Tattoo.

[ENGINE STARTS]

Let's go.

Smiles, everyone. Smiles.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

ROARKE: The lady in the tweed suit is

Dr. Melanie Elisabeth Griffin.

The young lady with her is her sister, Jennifer.

TATTOO: Which one has the fantasy?

ROARKE: Dr. Griffin.

She wishes to explore the most fascinating mystery of man,

and sometimes the most dangerous.

-What's that? -The human mind.

More specifically, the criminal, the violent.

The deadly instincts that some say lurk in all of us.

That rather serious-looking young man

is Professor Alan Blair,

a recognized expert in the study of ancient Greece.

Sounds like one of the most boring jobs I ever heard of.

For some people, perhaps.

But, Professor Blair has devoted his life

to seeking fulfillment of the ancient Greek ideals

of perfection and beauty in all things.

Particularly in love.

And that is why his fantasy is so challenging.

Uh, he wishes to find and love...

the ideal woman of perfect beauty.

But that's impossible. Nobody's perfect.

That's right, my friend.

Perfection is not a human quality.

Which is why the Professor's fantasy

may threaten both his sanity...

and his life.

My dear friends, I am Mr. Roarke, your host.

Welcome to Fantasy Island.

[♪♪♪♪♪]

Hello, beautiful little girl.

Ross Hayden!

JENNIFER: What are you doing here?

Well, I was hoping you could share a fantasy with me.

This is the place for it, isn't it, Dr. Griffin?

It was.

[CHUCKLES]

Hey. Did you know I was gonna be here?

Of course.

Jennifer, come on. Let's go.

Meet me back here as soon as you can, okay?

You were very rude to him.

Men like that don't relate to politeness.

For that matter, they don't relate to anything decent.

I trust you'll find your

accommodations comfortable, Doctor.

You have the adjoining suite, Miss Griffin.

I thought that Fantasy Island would exercise more discretion

about the kind of people they invited here.

-Has some guest annoyed you? -Contaminate is more apropos.

His name is Ross Hayden and he's trying to get to me

by using my sister as a steppingstone.

Ignore what I just said, Mr. Roarke.

ROARKE: Very well, Doctor.

Will you tell me something? Um, may I?

-Please. -Thank you.

I am very curious about the fantasy you requested.

Why do you wish to embark on such a painful experience,

as venturing into the mysterious world

of a tortured mind?

Clinical reasons.

Call it professional curiosity, if you will.

But you're already one of the most respected people

in your profession.

Chief therapist at a halfway house

for women just released from prison.

Uh, chairperson for the Governor's

Appellate Committee for Parole Recommendations.

Why is this story so pressing now?

Because over 60 percent of the young women that I treat

go back to the same men

who corrupted them to begin with,

and they repeat the same mistakes.

Then you think that by actually experiencing what they do,

you will find the answer?

Oh, I know it sounds bizarre.

And then perhaps, as a residual result, of course,

help you understand your own sister.

I resent that implication, Mr. Roarke.

My apologies, Doctor.

But you're right.

I think Jennifer is on the verge of ruining her life

and I cannot reach her.

Can you do this for me, Mr. Roarke?

When Robert Louis Stevenson wrote this novel

nearly a 100 years ago,

it was considered melodramatic fiction.

But some legends say it is true.

And based on the secret confession...

of a close friend of Stevenson's,

a Dr. Henry Lanyon.

This is the potion described in the real Dr. Lanyon's notes.

This is the one that...

uh, supposedly transformed the real Dr. Lanyon...

into a Mr. Hyde.

Why, that's preposterous.

No more so than many other potions

that now afflict modern society. PCP, LSD.

And other chemical compounds that alter personality behavior.

ROARKE: I must warn you.

Should you decide to take the potion,

you must drink two drops at a time and two drops only.

A stronger dosage will only intensify the aberration

which you will be experiencing...

and release certain primeval... powers of the psyche

that could result in violence, even murder.

ROARKE: Ah, here we are.

Stone marker.

Not unlike the signposts of today and the...

inscription seems to be in ancient Greek. But,

it says, "Go ye onward, seeker after beauty...

to worship at the temple of Aphrodite...

is to know the perfection...

of immortal love."

[SIGHS] It's a fascinating, archeological puzzle,

Mr. Roarke.

But my primary interest is in finding the ideal woman

I have been seeking all my life.

Who better fits that description than Aphrodite herself?

The goddess of love and beauty to the ancient Greeks.

ALAN: Mr. Roarke.

Are you implying that somehow the goddess Aphrodite herself

will be the woman who will satisfy my fantasy?

If you have the curiosity of a scholar...

and I believe you have... why not find out?

All right, Mr. Roarke.

We'll do it... on your terms.

TATTOO: Everything is ready, boss. All set to go.

Good work, Tattoo. Good work.

Ah, Mr. Andreas and, uh, Tasso. This is Professor Alan Blair.

Uh, they will accompany you on the journey.

ALAN: Gentlemen.

It's time to go. We must reach camp before dark.

Thank you.

Alan.

Minnie?

Hello.

I don't unders--

What is she doing here?

Miss Hale is an archeologist.

-I know that. -ROARKE: She's now accredited by

the Fantasy Island Historical Society.

The uh, stone marker is of special interest to her,

and I felt, uh, there would be no objection

if she accompanied you.

I understand you are old friends?

Is there any objection?

I guess not.

If you're ready, we better get on our way.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

-Hi. -JENNIFER: Hi.

-Ready? -Yes.

Sure you won't join us?

Perhaps another time.

[EXCLAIMING]

[GROANING]

Ah!

[WHIMPERS]

[GROANING]

[♪♪♪♪♪]

Please move faster, Miss, you must keep up.

Another marker.

Yes. It reads the same as the first one.

Except there's-- there's more.

"Ahead lies the temple of Aphrodite.

Enter seeker of beauty and rejoice."

There's no temple here.

I think we should continue on.

And I say we go back.

If the temple did exist around here,

the jungle would have swallowed it up by now.

APHRODITE: Alan.

Yes?

Didn't you hear that?

Somebody just called my name.

I heard nothing but the wind, and the wind speaks to no man.

Sounds echo strangely in the jungle, Alan.

APHRODITE: Alan.

I definitely heard it that time.

It came from over there.

Alan?

APHRODITE: Alan. Come to me.

I'm here. I'm here!

APHRODITE: Alan. Alan, come to me.

APHRODITE: Alan, here.

[SCREAMS]

[GROANS]

[POLYNESIAN DRUMMING]

MAN 1: This guy's really great.

-Ross, you're terrible. -[CHUCKLES]

I'd hate to think that Melanie was right about you.

Uh,

your sister has no idea what love and life are all about.

-You want to end up like her? -No.

Well, I'm glad.

A little angel like you deserves excitement and pleasure.

MAN 1: Great.

Wow.

-MAN 2: He's great. Fantastic. -MAN 3: Yeah.

MAN 3: What-- what's going on?

ALL: Ooh.

-MAN 1: Who's she? -MAN 2: She's-- Wow.

MAN 1: Good-looking lady.

MAN 2: Wow.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

MAN 2: Is she supposed to be here?

MAN 3: I never saw her around here.

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

[MEN EXCLAIMING]

MAN 2: Wow. Look at that.

MAN 3: What agility.

-MAN 2: Yeah. -MAN 3: Hey. Yeah.

[MEN EXCLAIMING]

MAN 1: Oh, baby. Me. Can I be next?

MAN 2: Over here, baby.

I wonder what makes men attracted

to savage women like that.

MAN 1: That's a damn shame.

Look at the way she moves, like a jungle cat.

Dangerous.

Vicious.

MAN 1: Yeah.

Well, she certainly doesn't appeal to you,

does she, Ross?

[MEN WHOOPING]

[MEN CHEERING, APPLAUDING]

-MAN 1: Yeah, yeah, -MAN 2: Yeah.

Quite an extraordinary performance.

I'll say.

I'm sorry, boss, but I think I need a cold shower.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Go away, little girl.

Who do you think you are?

Do what she says, Jen.

What?

I'll catch up with you later. I promise.

Hello.

Do you always just come and take what you want?

Always.

What's your name?

Lila.

Lila what?

Just Lila.

-Isn't that enough? -Mm-hmm.

[GROANS]

Aphrodite?

"Know ye that I am Aphrodite.

Look upon me and know

perfect beauty and love everlasting.

By your desire...

I am yours."

MINNIE: Alan? Alan?

Alan, are you all right?

Wait there until morning. We'll come for you then.

Yes. Until tomorrow.

I'm worried, he could be hurt. Lower me down.

-Maybe I can help him. -No, no, no.

It's too dangerous in the dark.

We'll come back tomorrow with the proper equipment.

Come on. Come on.

Here.

[SIGHS]

"By your desire, I am yours."

I desire you, Aphrodite.

I desire you now as I have wanted nothing before on Earth.

I am Aphrodite, the perfect love.

You have searched for me.

You desire me.

I'm yours. Yours.

[♪♪♪♪♪]

-ROSS: Oh, yes. -[MELANIE MOANS]

There's just one word for you, sweetheart.

[CHUCKLES] Wow.

Hey. Is your passion like your wine?

Exhausted before the evening begins?

Oh, there's plenty more.

I'd do anything for you.

I'd even kill someone for you, sweetheart.

Be back as soon as I can.

[GROANS]

Oh!

Andreas, do you think this will work?

Courage, Miss Hale. Your friend will be all right.

We'll have him back in no time at all.

Good morning.

-Alan, you're not hurt. -No.

How did you get out? There's no other way.

Well, fortunately, I had some help.

You see, there was, um, someone in the temple,

uh, I mean the-- uh, the underground cave.

Was using it as shelter, and uh,

she showed me another way out.

Oddly enough, uh,

her name happens to be Aphrodite.

She was washing her clothes in an underground stream

and they got lost, so I-- I loaned her my shirt.

ALAN: Aphrodite, uh, these are my friends.

Where did you say you found her?

What difference does that make?

We're going back to the Fantasy Island Hotel.

My search is over. Aphrodite and I are... getting married.

Married?

Yes. As soon as humanly or inhumanly possible.

-But, Alan-- -ALAN: I know. I know.

It sounds crazy and sudden but...

Well, you've heard of love at first sight.

Anyway, my mind is made up.

Come, Aphrodite.

That one's evil.

JENNIFER: We came here to have a good time, and I'm staying.

We're leaving. Both of us.

You said we were gonna spend the weekend here.

Maybe it's time you looked at yourself in the mirror.

Where's your self-respect?

Ross deserts you for some chippie,

and not only do you want to go back for more,

but you make yourself up to look like her.

Hey, that was just something that happened.

I thought about it all night and I understand it now.

There was something about that woman.

Something exciting and forbidden.

So that's what attracts you about him, is it?

You're fascinated by the dark and deep experience he offers,

and intrigued by the forbidden possibilities

that he represents.

Well, what do you know?

That's the first time you've ever even come close

to knowing what goes on inside my head, Doctor.

Jennifer, will you please listen to me?

Men like Ross are bad men.

He will hurt you like he hurt the other women that I know.

Not only by getting them hooked on drugs

and using them for himself...

he's forced them into prostitution,

he's beaten them up

when they don't make enough money to satisfy him.

-ELIZABETH: Jennifer, stop! -JENNIFER: Butt out of my life.

Okay, we'll rest here for a minute.

Minnie,

I think Aphrodite would like to change her clothes

to something more appropriate. Would you, uh...

Would you mind?

Alan, you don't really intend to marry this girl, do you?

Minnie, we could've made it

under different circumstances.

I could've loved you. It's just...

Try to understand.

One night in a cave, and,

she satisfied your impossible dream.

Yes.

Minnie, Aphrodite knows my very thoughts

before I think them. She's...

She's perfection itself.

You wish to taste the wine?

You come and get it.

You belong to the professor.

I belong to whoever claims me.

[SCREAMING]

He attacked me!

-No. -He's lying.

He wanted me. Oh, Alan, he frightened me so.

He grabbed me and touched me.

[TASSO GRUNTS]

Stop it! Stop it! Let him go!

He's hurt. We gotta get him to a hospital.

How could you? He's just a boy.

-He hit his head. -You defended me.

You're worthy of my love for all time to come.

-Hello, sweetheart. -What are you doing here?

I found this in your bedroom, Lila.

That's not my dress. Get out of here.

Talk about cover-ups, huh?

How long you been hiding that gorgeous body of yours, huh?

Get out!

Sure.

-[DOOR CLOSES] -I don't know how you did it.

You've got to be the make-up expert of all time.

It's true. You're Lila.

-I said leave us alone. -Oh, yeah?

I just hit the biggest parlay of my life.

A two-to-one split.

One...

is the most fascinating female I've ever met...

and the other has a pipeline to the Governor

to bail my lady friends out.

All wrapped up into one beautiful body.

Oh, I would-- I would die before I'd let you touch

-one of those women again. -ROSS: Oh, yeah?

You better consider what sweet little Jennifer

might find out.

If she finds out that

naughty little Lila is her own sister.

Listen. I want you to see a little tape recording

I did last night.

A little video tape. I think you'll like it.

Come here. Come here.

ROARKE: The doctor said Tasso will be fine.

How long have you been in love with Professor Blair, Ms. Hale?

A long time.

We were engaged for five years.

You know, a lot of guys can't compete

when a girl is waiting for Prince Charming

to come along.

Well, a girl can't compete with a fantasy either.

And after she's given all she's got...

she tries to stop loving.

But that doesn't always work either.

I see.

It wasn't Alan's fault, Mr. Roarke.

That girl changed him somehow.

Girl? Is that what he called her?

MINNIE: Yes.

He said her name is Aphrodite. Can you believe that?

And Alan said he's gonna marry her.

She did in one night...

what I couldn't do in five years.

It really hurts a girl's pride.

There is more at stake now than your pride.

The professor's quest for perfection

may have finally driven him completely from reality.

I don't understand. Uh...

Are-- are you saying that Alan has gone mad?

When dreams are preferred to reality, madness ensues.

And such madness leads irrevocably to death.

If his so-called marriage is accomplished,

he will be beyond your help

-or your love. -[MINNIE GASPS]

MINNIE: Mr. Roarke...

-have you seen Alan? -Not this morning, no.

That means he's gone to Aphrodite.

-I know it. -APHRODITE: Alan.

-Listen. -APHRODITE: Alan.

APHRODITE: Alan. I'm here, Alan.

APHRODITE: Come to me.

I know where she's leading him. We must stop her.

No, this way. It's shorter. Hurry!

APHRODITE: Alan.

APHRODITE: You must come to me now, Alan.

Come, my love.

Alan, wait!

Alan, please don't go to her.

Minnie. Minnie, I-- I have to. She's--

-She's all that is perfect. -She is not, Professor.

Do you want me to tell you

-what she's really like-- -No.

No, I'm not gonna listen to your lies.

Alan, look at me.

I exist. I'm real. And I want to love you.

Now I may not be perfect. No woman is.

But I'm real.

She speaks the truth, Professor. Not Aphrodite.

APHRODITE: Alan, don't listen to them.

Alan, I'm in here.

Oh, Alan. Come to me.

Alan.

Alan.

I offer you eternal love.

For I am perfect, love.

Alan. Hurry. Hurry.

You must come to me now.

APHRODITE: Hello, Alan.

APHRODITE: Come, my love. Come to me.

APHRODITE: Together we will go to Mount Olympus.

APHRODITE: I will give you eternal love.

Alan, no.

There is no Mount Olympus, Professor Blair.

Her gift is not love.

Only death.

She cannot claim you unless first you die.

APHRODITE: Silence!

He has no power to come between us.

Come to me. Come, my love.

ROARKE: Professor Blair...

her only true power is that which you yourself

have given to this fantasy of a goddess come to life.

I am not a fantasy. I am Aphrodite.

Know my power.

[RUMBLING]

You see, Professor, your fantasy has no power to hurt me.

Only yourself.

APHRODITE: Alan.

I will give you everlasting love and perfection.

APHRODITE: Obey me, Alan.

APHRODITE: Come to me and paradise is yours forever.

Alan, no. Al-- [SCREAMING]

Oh. Oh, please. [SOBS]

-Let her fall. She's nothing. -[MINNIE WHIMPERING]

Let her fall, my love.

-APHRODITE: Go ahead. -Let her go?

No. No!

-[ALAN PANTS] -[WHIMPERS, GROANS]

I love you.

Alan! Come back, Alan!

You have lost, Aphrodite.

No.

Yes.

Reality, especially love, will always triumph against you.

And now you must go back.

No. You have no power over me, Roarke.

Yes.

It is time to go back where you really belong.

Only there are you... perfect.

No. No, Roarke. No.

I am Aphrodite. The goddess...

of per...

perfection.

I am...

Aphro...

I am... perfection.

I am...

Aphrodite.

MELANIE: Look, I'll pay you anything you want.

Just give me the tape and leave us alone.

No, no, no. You don't seem to understand.

I like you.

I don't mean this you.

I mean, Lila. I want Lila.

-I won't do it. -Oh, yeah?

Put this on...

and get up in your make-up.

Do what you have to do to get into your Lila routine.

Now, sweetheart.

You don't understand.

Honey, you don't seem to understand.

Now you do what I tell you to do,

or I'll run that little TV special for your sister.

Do you understand?

Now you got about one minute to come out of there

looking and acting like Lila.

Hey, now.

Yeah, now.

That's that beautiful body that I remember.

Oh! What a scam!

Even I couldn't see through your phony act.

Well, whatever it is you're into,

it's really something. [CHUCKLES]

What's this?

I said, I want Lila.

What do you got here?

This will help.

A little something to get you in the mood, right?

Well, if a little helps, a lot ought to be great.

[MELANIE GROANING]

ROARKE: You must drink two drop at a time.

[MELANIE GRUNTS]

What's the matter with you? What's going on?

[GROANING]

-What's happening? -[GROANS]

What's going on with you, huh?

[MELANIE GROANING]

What happened?

I'm here, Ross.

Your Lila is here.

No, I don't like this trip you're on, Lila.

Wait.

[FOOTSTEPS]

[EXCLAIMS]

[GAGGING, GASPING]

[GROANS]

[GROANS]

Hey, you want your Lila?

[GROWLS]

[PANTING]

[GROWLS]

[GROWLS]

-[SNARLS] -[SCREAMS] No, no please!

[ALAN WHIMPERS]

-[SCREAMS] -[MELANIE GROWLS, SCREAMS]

Melanie, stop it! Stop!

The specter of evil dwells in the minds of all of us.

Born in the hell of our own torment.

[MELANIE WHIMPERS]

You've learned that now, haven't you?

It's over, Melanie.

Your fantasy is over.

Think, Melanie.

You've saved Jennifer.

Now save yourself.

You've looked into the depths of your own tortured mind.

Where did it all begin?

This hatred that can explode so violently

against a man like Ross,

who would exploit and harm women?

Where did it all begin?

ROARKE: Answer me, Melanie.

ROARKE: What is this hidden hate

that men arouse so fiercely in you?

Tell me, Melanie.

Tell me.

Tell me.

My husband.

I loved him like Jennifer loved Ross,

and he wasn't much better in many ways.

He deserted me.

He just left me before I gave birth

to a stillborn child.

I swore that I'd never let a man do that to me again.

Or to Jennifer.

So I buried myself in my career.

I neglected my baby sister.

And the only hurt that I could feel was my own.

Now I understand why Jennifer turned to a man like Ross.

The most powerful of human desires.

To be wanted and loved.

You know, those girls at the halfway house...

they need more than therapy.

They need love.

Yes.

[♪♪♪♪♪]

Did you enjoy your stay with us?

Oh, it was a very enlightening experience.

-For all three of us. -Three?

Jennifer, me and Lila.

Lila? Who's Lila?

Maybe I'll explain it to you someday.

As soon as I understand Lila myself.

Thank you, Mr. Roarke.

You're very welcome, Dr. Griffin. Ms. Griffin.

-Let's go. Bye. -Bye.

[WOMEN GIGGLING]

I can never thank you enough, Mr. Roarke.

Not only for making me see

that reality and fantasy are one in the same thing,

but also for... for finding Minnie again.

MINNIE: I have a confession to make.

This wasn't just a coincidence.

My fantasy was getting you back again.

[CHUCKLES] Thank you, Mr. Roarke.

-You're very welcome indeed. -Bye-bye.

-Goodbye. -Bye-bye, Tattoo.

-Goodbye. -Goodbye.
