Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Escaping from a revolution, the King (Joseph Swickard) of a mythical Balkan country heads to the United States. Here he finds a friend in the form of dashing secret service agent Yorke Norray (Cornelius Keefe). With Norray's help, the King is restored to his throne, and the rascally insurrectionists are thrown out. As a bonus, Norray wins the love of Princess Therese (Virginia Brown Faire), who at first glance seems to be one of the revolutionaries (but isn't!) Boris Karloff appears as one of the conspirators, playing a character cleverly named "Boris."
