Quinn Harris: [waking up still partly drunk] What the...? What the hell did you do? You wasted our only god damned flare to shoot a god damned palm tree?
Robin: I wouldn't have shot the god damned tree if you hadn't rolled into me. I was trying to signal the god damned plane.
Quinn Harris: What god damned plane?
Robin: [points to a commercial airliner in the sky] That god damned plane.
Quinn Harris: That god damned plane? That's a commercial airliner! It's 5 miles high going six hundred miles an hour. They wouldn't see a nuclear explosion if they were looking for it, much less a flare!
也许这个故事太传奇，太浪漫，太完美，但那又如何，就让我们在这100多分钟里暂时脱离现实，跟随男女主人公进行一场心灵的冒险吧。
后来勉强点开，又不想看，因为实在是十分不喜欢这一男一女，男的看上去特别不懂得体贴人，女的特别唠叨
这样的一对产生的故事我是很不愿意看下去的，然而我看到她们意外地坠落在一个海岛上，于是互相嫌弃的两个人别扭的开始了相处，而我居然越看越想往下看。。。。。。一点也没有厌倦或烦躁
果然只要有男人和女人，哪怕只是一个男人和一个女人，也会有一个美好的故事。

奎因（半醉中醒来）：“你到底做了什么？你浪费掉我们唯一的一枚信号弹去射那该死的棕榈树？”
罗宾：“如果你不冒犯我，我肯定不会把信号弹射到树上，我是在向那架该死的飞机发信号。”
奎因：“什么该死的飞机？”
罗宾（指向空中的客机）：“那架该死的飞机。”
奎因：“那是商业航班！它在以600英里时速飞行，高度足有5英里，他们连核爆都看不到，就更别提信号弹了！”
