Code R, if the memorty which might be failing is correct, was about the fireman, policeman, coastguard guy on an island off Cali. It seems that it was to be/not be Catalina. They spent a lot of time trying to get where they were going and looking Cali tanned. Bad stuff, but when I was 8 I liked it. Trying to cash in on Emergency. The guy who played the coastguard fellow was in a lot of films later.
