Synopsis
À Istanbul, le playboy de renommée internationale Tony Mecenas, propriétaire d'une boîte de nuit, est contacté par la séduisante Kenny, agente du FBI, pour qu'il l'aide à retrouver un savant en énergie atomique séquestré quelque part dans la ville. Le scientifique a été enlevé par une organisation qui réclamait une rançon d'un million de dollars et, lors de l'échange, il est apparu trop tard qu'un imposteur a été restitué à sa place. On propose donc à Tony, qui connaît Istanbul comme sa poche, de délivrer le savant et, en contrepartie, de s'approprier l'argent de la rançon s'il parvient à le substituer à l'organisation. Tony se lance dans l'aventure avec Kenny. À l'issue de mille et une péripéties, où Kenny aura également été enlevée, Tony finit par tout récupérer : la belle Américaine, le savant et les dollars. Mais, après avoir confié le scientifique aux bons soins du FBI, il garde pour lui sa chère Kenny et le joli magot.Actors

L'invention que tout le monde recherche est définitivement du type science-fiction. C'est une pince à cravate spéciale qui, lorsqu'elle est utilisée avec une paire de lentilles de contact infrarouges, permet à l'utilisateur de voir à travers les murs ! Le type qui les a volés au professeur en fait bon usage en les portant en jouant au poker et en nettoyant ! Il devrait penser plus grand. La première chose que fait Roger lorsqu'il découvre cette petite nouveauté est de s'en servir pour espionner sa copine en train de s'habiller ! C'est plus comme ça. Ce film fait vraiment le tour. Nous voyageons de la Riviera à Genève à Paris à Casablanca (la Casbah pas moins), et à Copenhague. Nous avons même droit à une visite de la brasserie Tuborg. Il y a une fusillade prolongée entre les réservoirs de bière géants.

The movie begins with Sam, Alex and Clover starting their new lives in Beverly Hills, California. As each of them were about to cross paths outside a sushi restaurant, nearby WOOHP agents (including Jerry) purposely cause the giant sushi roll above the entrance to break off and chase after them, setting some nearby animals free in the process. The giant sushi roll, with the three girls log rolling on top of it, chases a baby pig to the street. The three girls are able to avoid it, save the life of the baby pig (which Alex later adopts and names "Oinky") and destroy the sushi roll before it causes any damage. After that, Alex, Sam and Clover introduce themselves and this starts their friendship when they later see each other again at their new school, meet the current principal Miss Skrich and their future rival Mandy and Dominique and Catlin. Clover offers her new friends a change of clothes after Mandy sprays them with a chai machine, but they find themselves sucked in through a locker and into one of the offices of WOOHP. It's there that they meet Jerry and fellow WOOHP agent Tad. Jerry reveals that WOOHP had been observing the three of them secretly since childhood, showing videos of each girl, and picking them as prime recruits for the organization. However, the girls are quick to reject the invite and refuse to join. However, they later are "forced" into training after each having traumatic experiences that seemingly relate to WOOHP. They agree to go through training and in 48 hours, complete the training.
