Volunteers
Lawrence Bourne III is a spoiled kid who just graduated from Yale, Class of 1962, with a $28,000 gambling debt. When his father, Lawrence Bourne Jr., refuses to pay his debt, he escapes his angry creditors by trading places with his college roommate Kent, jumping on a Peace Corps flight to Thailand. On the plane, he meets Washington State graduate Tom Tuttle from Tacoma, and the beautiful, down-to-earth Beth Wexler, the latter rejecting his advances once realizing why he is really there.
