Making a delivery to a mysterious mansion in a rainstorm, radio salesman Hank Martin is knocked out when a suit of armor topples on him. Upon awakening, Hank finds himself in the time of King Arthur.

Hank so impresses Arthur that the king orders him to joust with one of his knights to save the life of Princess Alisande.
