Eastwood plays a fun-loving hard guy who captures fugitives who have skipped out on their bail money; cons a villain into believing he has won a date with Dolly Parton, then shows up in a limousine and arrests him; dresses up as a rodeo clown and nabs a bad-guy bull rider on first bounce, just as the bull has tossed him. Peters plays -- but you knew this, didn't you? -- a gorgeous, daffy bail jumper. She isn't really a villain, of course.

She has won $515,000 professionally, but since much of it has been diverted into state coffers, she gripes, "I still don't have enough money for a Mercedes." When last seen, Zvereva was stomping back to the Kremlin to have it out with her agents. "If you don't see me at the French Open," she giggled in parting, "you'll know what happened...
