Summary:

Nice dreams: Cheech and Chong sell enough of their "specially mixed" ice cream to finance their fondest dreams, new guitars, islands in the sun, beautiful women. While celebrating their wealth, Cheech meets his long-lost love Donna and accompanies her to her penthouse. Donna's boyfriend, an ex-con named Animal, is on his way up. Chong unwittingly exchanges all of their money for a worthless bank check, and the only way to get it back is to escape into a nearby insane asylum.

Things are tough all over: Everybody has problems these days, and Cheech and Chong are no exceptions. They're hired by Slyman and Habib to drive a limousine to Las Vegas, with $5 million secretly stashed in the front seat. In order to get there, the pair sell off the car piece by piece, including the seven-figure front seat. Cheech and Chong then have a much bigger problem - Slyman and Habib are after them, swearing to kill them, after the appropriate torture.
