The last thing he needs is an interruption. However, he gets an unusual one in the guise of an unexpected visit from Dr. Rae Crain (Lorraine Bracco), a hardheaded female scientist dispatched to the steaming tropics by the pharmaceutical corporation sponsoring his research to investigate the reclusive Dr. Campbell and his secret activities.
