Bill is tasked with saving the island by helping a disgruntled patient threatening to sue the community find true love with the local shop girl; a beach rendezvous between Lisa and Duncan does not go unwitnessed.
Smug, urbanite plastic surgeon Bill Shore begrudgingly agrees to accompany his wife and two children to a remote island in the Northumberland Strait populated by oddballs in an attempt to save his marriage.
Lisa takes it upon herself to write the obituary of the island's newspaper editor when he dies, and Bill faces a woman from his past who unexpectedly moves to the island; Kate returns from her European trip without Ben.
A local island festival finds Bill convinced the townspeople are going to sacrifice him, Kate pursuing Ben with embarrassing results and Harvey going it alone in a three-legged race. Meanwhile things heat up between Lisa and Duncan.
