When I run this, it gives the plot, but there is no abline. Any suggestions? Thanks.

It should be abline(lm(vixee ~ returnee)) to match the coordinates of the plot.

In contrast to @AK, I was going to say you had your plot backwards. One or the other ... if the regression is the way you want it (i.e. y~x) then try either

plot(vixee ~ returnee)  ## formula interface, y~x

or

plot(returnee,vixee)    ## standard interface, (x,y)
