The movie is a sequel to the 1978 hit film Every Which Way but Loose, which was also directed by Van Horn and starring Eastwood and Locke. The movie's plot follows the same protagonist, Philo Beddoe (Eastwood), a truck driver and amateur bare-knuckle boxer. Philo is reunited with his love interest from the first movie, Lynn Halsey-Taylor (Locke), and his best friend, Orville Boggs (Lewis).

Lynn is unable to pay the ransom, and she seeks Philo's help in rescuing her sister. Philo initially declines but is convinced when he learns that the Black Widows are behind the kidnapping. Orville is also convinced to join in on the adventure.
