The course of true love never did run smooth. Two octopi entwine in an embrace when a hand reaches from above, plucks them out of the water, disentangles them, tosses the female back in what now we see is a small aquarium, puts the male in a cold storage box, and heads for a delivery truck. She recovers from the initial shock and gives pursuit, grabbing the back of the truck as it leaves, then working herself to the front. As the driver tries to thwart her efforts to save her man, the truck careens through the small coastal town. Will she succeed? Do other perils await?
