Plot Summary
Three years after the first film, Nick, Dale, and Kurt invent a car wash-inspired shower head, the “Shower Buddy”. They are approached by Bert Hanson and his son Rex, and Bert agrees to invest if they can make 100,000 units. With a business loan, the trio outfit a warehouse, producing the quota. However, Bert backs out, as he never signed an agreement. He then tells them that when they are unable to repay their loan of $500,000 from the bank and they foreclose, he plans to buy their inventory at a knockdown price and sell them himself. Seeking financial advice, the three visit Nick’s imprisoned former boss, Dave Harken, who says they have no feasible legal way to recover their losses. They then resolve to kidnap Rex for ransom.
Seeking Dean “Motherfucker” Jones’ help, he suggests keeping the victim unconscious the entire kidnapping. Their ransom note asks for $500,000. They go to the office of Dale’s former boss, Dr. Julia Harris, to steal nitrous oxide. While there, Kurt and Dale are almost caught by members of Julia’s sex addiction support group; once they leave, Nick distracts Julia, allowing Dale and Kurt to escape. At Rex’s, as all three hide in the closet, Dale accidentally knocks them out with the gas. Waking up in the morning, Rex is gone. Returning to the warehouse, they find him tied up in their trunk.
Getting out, he reveals he found them in his closet, but staged his own kidnapping. Rex sent the ransom note to Bert, increasing the ransom to $5 million. The three doubt Rex’s plan, but he threatens to go to the police if they back out. They call Bert to inform him of Rex’s kidnapping, threatening to kill him if the police are summoned. However, the police, led by Detective Hatcher, subsequently arrive at the warehouse to question the suspects.
