Storyline

An eccentric scientist working for a large drug company is working on a research project in the Amazon jungle. He sends for a research assistant and a gas chromatograph because he's close to a cure for cancer. When the assistant turns out to be a "mere woman," he rejects her help. Meanwhile the bulldozers get closer to the area in which they are conducting research, and they eventually learn to work together, and begin falling in love.

Goofs

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Dr. Campbell is saying the things that Tommy Fallon won't notice about Dr. Crane, he says it is her left ear that hangs low, when it is actually her right ear that "hangs low." See more »

Quotes

[before the rescue]
Dr. Robert Campbell: Don't cry. Listen, when this is over you can cry all you want, and I won't say a word.
