Story
The heroes of the previous part, Jack Colton ( Michael Douglas ) and Joan Wilder ( Kathleen Turner ) live a quiet, measured life on a yacht. But the adventurous characters of both do not allow them to enjoy idleness for a long time. To have fun, Joan accepts an offer from an Arab sheikh to visit his eastern residence and write his biography. But a kind invitation turns into kidnapping Joan, and the sheikh’s men blow up Jack’s boat.
They find themselves embroiled in an adventure - stolen "Al-Jahar" ("Pearl of the Nile"). Jack goes to rescue Joan. Behind him is tied to the rogue Ralph ( Danny De Vito ), who wants to earn some money on it.
