I could not give less of a fuck about Pat's love life i am so much more interested in them being transgender. 

Also love the part near the beginning where Tarboro says he won't bring them to the island because of the "hostile natives" and baselessly implies the indigenous people are cannibals and calls them a derogatory term (this is not seen as a "racism is bad" moment).
And then when they get to the island, there are literally NO indigenous people so that entire racist rant is LITERALLY completely pointless </spoilers>
