Their trip to Venice didn't really work out: they both came down with gastroenteritis. They have higher hopes for Paris. But Marion's overbearing non-English speaking parents and flirtatious ex-boyfriends, combined with Jack's obsession with photographing every famous Parisian tombstone and his conviction that French condoms are too small, only add fuel to the fire.
