SYNOPSIS
Blom is out of prison and now a full member of the Hells Angels. His first mission is to collect the debt Berth owes him. Blom rings the door bell of Berth Milton but when Senior opens the door Blom is confused until he realizes that father and son have the same name. When Senior listens to Blom’s story, he realizes that they have something in common, they both want something from Berth - Blom wants his money and Senior wants ”his” company back. Maybe they can help each other. Blom helps Senior with a lawyer that looks into the contract between Senior and Berth. Senior claims that his signature is fake.
In Dresden, Eastern Germany, Norell finds the girl who will be Private’s new face, NATASHA BÖHM. Norell is struck by her beauty and tries to find out why she needs this job. She could be a real model. Natasha is studying law and works part-time in a grocery store, but her father is unemployed and her mother’s income is not enough. She’ll tell them and her boyfriend that she’ll be doing some modeling in the west. When Natasha learns that she can make 5.000 dollars per film, she signs the contract. Private’s whole strategy is now centered on Natasha. The plan is to land a big American fish and cut new distribution deals for their films through Milcap Productions.

Berth, Norell, Erika, Rodriguez, Natasha and the whole Private family are being courted at the most exclusive parties thrown by Playboy and Penthouse and others, and Berth gets them all to outbid each other for US distribution
rights. At first, the old men behind the table are skeptical of Berth having Erika next to him, but she slowly earns their respect, tough but honest. Finally Berth closes a deal with BOB GUCCIONE and Penthouse worth many millions of dollars. Van der Erde is pissed off that he is not part of the lucrative film deal and contacts Senior. Back in Stockholm Berth wins the court case against Senior, the signatures on the contract are correct and Senior can’t make any legal claim to Private. Senior decides that it’s time to meet with Van der Erde.

While shooting in the jungle, the models dressed in guerrilla outfits, are all of a sudden surrounded by the Philippine army who take them for the local guerrilla. A suspicious army captain orders Norell and the crew to leave the area at once. Norell calls Berth, who is in the middle of dinner with a pregnant Jenny, about the problem. Berth tells Norell to continue shooting, he wants his film, there is too much money at stake. Berth gets more tense for each day that goes by. The local police get their eyes on Norell and realize that they are shooting a porn film, a felony that will lead to six years in prison. Erika tells Berth to get the crew out of the Philippines, Norell is his best friend, but Berth wants his film. Out of pure luck and some skills, Norell is able to escape the police and brings the film back safe to Berth who is happy with Norell’s work. Berth promises Norell a raise and stock options in Private.
