On their first date, Bobby plays a prank that unintentionally gets a teenage cashier killed. Bobby goes on the run, and Rose leaves her family to join him. They meet Texans Buford (Tim [=McIntire=]) and Donna Sue (Leigh French), who invite them to go to Mexico with them. Things don't go as planned.

!!''Aloha, Bobby and Rose'' contains examples of:
* BrandishmentBluff: Bobby pokes a jerky stick into the cashier's back, pretending it's a gun, to scare him and amuse Rose. Unfortunately, the store owner comes out at that moment, brandishing a real shotgun. Rose hits him on the head with a vase, causing him to fall over. The gun goes off, hitting the cashier.
* DisappearedDad: Rose's dad never came back from UsefulNotes/TheKoreanWar. Also, Erick's father walked out on them four years ago.
* HowDadMetMom: The movie opens with Rose's mother telling her about how she quit her job and then met Rose's father. He was strikingly handsome, and she describes their romantic first date.
