Moore.After Rick Richard's (Presley) skirt-chasing ways cost him his job as an airline pilot, he moves to Hawaii and meets up with an old friend, Danny Kohana (James Shigeta), with whom Rick starts a helicopter charter business. Rick charms many of his ex-girlfriends into chipping in on the business and hires Judy (Suzanna Leigh) as a secretary. Then he gets in trouble when he tries to carry several dogs without a crate and almost crashes, causing Rick to become grounded. The incident, as well as the fact that Rick still hasn't given up his troublesome skirt-chasing, strains his friendship with Danny.

The Casanova: Rick really loves the ladies and one too many indiscretions cost him his job as an airline pilot. In Hawaii, he reconnects with a harem (as Judy calls them at one point) of past flings who regard him with a mix of resentment and longing, and he convinces them to pitch in on his and Danny's business.

Belly-Scraping Flight: When Rick carries the dogs in the helicopter, they go crazy and interfere with Rick's flying, causing him to lose control and come very close to the ground. Although he ultimately makes a safe landing, he almost crashes into some farmers and Mr. Belden, leading to his grounding.

Catchphrase: "You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours," and variations thereof. It's Rick's go-to phrase for getting business partners.
