In this sequel to Romancing the Stone, romance writer Joan Wilder (Kathleen Turner) has grown bored traveling the world with her boyfriend, Jack Colton (Michael Douglas), and accepted an invitation to journey to the Middle East with a sheik. Once there, Joan is abducted and imprisoned with a luckless spiritual leader. Now, Colton and his new partner, Ralph (Danny Devito), must come to Wilder's rescue.
