Plot Overview

A trip to a Latin American country to deliver a briefcase full of contracts proves eventful for Jeff and J.R. The problems start when J.R. reveals that he left the keys to the case at home, as well as the keys to the handcuffs chaining him to the briefcase. Eventually, they find out what was really in the case--plans for a violent government overthrow--and have to help prevent that from happening.

Jeff and J.R. wind up in a 'prison cell' that is more like a hotel room, and J.R. turns on the TV to discover a Spanish-dubbed episode of Cheyenne...a reference to yet another popular Warner Bros. TV series.
