| Plot Summary of For Pete's Sake |
"Peter Payne is aptly named; he is a pain, determined to ruin his ex-girlfriend's upcoming wedding on the Isla de Oro resort of her fiancee. Because her millionaire mogul fiancee, Dominic, stole Gwyn away, Peter feels he needs to be humiliated, and plans to have all the wedding supplies shipped to another island. In his own deluded way, Peter thinks he can win Gwyn back with this plan.
Lily Tiger, who runs Dominic's resort, frets about the wedding plans, and freaks when the supplies don't show. Peter arrives to watch the fireworks and is struck by Lily, who recruits Peter to fix the computer glitch that caused this problem (the glitch Peter caused!) Peter is soon helping Lily, despite the original plan, and later helping himself to Lily, though he worries about what will happen if she finds out he caused the problem and put her job at risk.
