The series is set in Los Angeles in the 1980s and opens with Dagmar Laine, a transsexual prostitute and lover to former 1950s film star Beverly Grove, searching for a reel of film taken from The Vatican's collection of pornography. The reel has been sent to Father Frank Murtaugh by his brother who is a Cardinal in The Vatican. Laine tries to grab the reel from Father Murtaugh but it's stolen by a nun.
