When Davey Crandall (O'Connor) and his coworker, Tom Botts (Will Geer), are falsely accused of dealing in stolen treasure, they try to find refuge onboard Captain Ben Wickett's ship. Through a series of hilarious mishaps, Davey soon finds himself the supposed Captain and is embraced by the ruthless pirate community.
