Plot: Maggie Harwood (Penelope Ann Miller) is a British wine merchant's daughter obsessed with making it in her father's business. She is delighted when he sends her out on a routine business mission to a remote castle in Scotland. What appears to be an average job cataloging the stock of an ancient wine cellar becomes an opportunity of a lifetime when Maggie discovers a 150-year-old bottle of wine from a legendary year, believed to have once belonged to Napoleon. What Maggie doesn't realize is that she is working directly underneath a group of deranged scientists that is hiding out in the supposedly abandoned castle. When the scientists discover what Maggie is up to they decide to get in on the action in a madcap chase that takes Maggie and her precious bottle of wine from Scotland to France, braving hairy helicopter rides and the murky depths of the ocean. Along the way, she meets Oliver Plexico (Tim Daly), a young man also in search of the bottle at the behest of his millionaire employer. Thrown together out of necessity, Maggie prefers to keep her distance from Oliver, whom she considers an ill-bred lout. But as the chase heats up, so do things between Maggie and Oliver. Together they face a series of hysterical and thrilling adventures, one step ahead of thieves and deranged
