Van Dorn decides to bring her back personally and during the quest he becomes familiar with the pornographic underworld. Written by Dragan Antulov <dragan.antulov@altbbs.fido.hr>

Trivia
The city of Grand Rapids, MI. voiced concern about what was perceived as an "unfavorable depiction of middle America" in its early scenes and the Scott Van Dorn character's overly repressive and harsh nature. See more »Goofs
Continuity: Panties suddenly appear on Niki's fully nude body in the peep booth. This goof is seen on old video and cable un-matted versions. (On DVD, the portion showing that Nikki has panties is properly cropped out and doesn't show.) See more »Soundtracks
