JACK FLANDERS IN… ORCHIDS & MOONBEAMS

Some­where in the trop­ics, yet anoth­er beach resort is being built. The devel­op­ers are plan­ning to put a road through a val­ley the locals con­sid­er sacred: they believe a pow­er­ful Nature Spir­it dwells there. As the devel­op­ers bull­doze into the jun­gle, and the warm trop­i­cal rains con­tin­ue, the jun­gle is sprout­ing up every­where. At Maria’s Cafe, chairs are sprout­ing leaves, tables are grow­ing roots, vines are creep­ing over the counter, and orchids are cling­ing to the walls. One morn­ing, Mojo finds a snake coiled up on his chair, “Oops, looks like this seat’s been taken.”

Jaguars are seen strolling through town, while spi­ders, igua­nas, tree frogs, etc., are hop­ping and crawl­ing every­where. There’s even a par­rot infes­ta­tion. In the local bars, scar­let macaws snatch pret­zels out of patron’s fin­gers. Mean­while, Jack, Mojo, and Clau­dine are attempt­ing to prove the Nature Spir­it not only exists, she may have just begun to “even the score.”
