Multimillionaire Arthur Bach loses all his money due to a financial maneuver made by his rejected ex-fiancee's father. That situation puts Arthur's marriage and adoption plans "on the rocks".
The outrageously immoral plotline has the protagonist becoming a blackmailer in order to revert his financial setbacks. As a sequel, this does not add a great deal, as Arthur can't make an honest living and, it seems, can't stop drinking no matter how desperate his situation is. The first movie had a deus ex machina finale and the second one has, guess what, a deux ex machina finale, so that Arthur can go back to being a loafer, now with two kids which he can raise into loafhood himself. The film is very well directed and, scene by scene, is sufficiently bearable.
