It's now 6 years after the events of "Saturday Night Fever". Tony Manero (John Travolta) has made it into Manhattan. His new goal is to become a dancer on Broadway, but life keeps throwing problems at him. From a dalliance with a dancer name Laura (Finola Hughes) to trouble with choreographers who don't appreciate his dancing style, Tony is trying to keep his head above water and ends up doing so in a very interesting fashion.
