Story
The young Gascon d'Artagnan (Don Amici) is sent to Paris to become the royal musketeer. As soon as he arrived, he manages to appoint a duel immediately to three musketeers in one unremarkable tavern. Everything would be fine, but the musketeers turned out to be big drunkards and before d'Artagnan arrived, they got drunk in full so that the servants of the inn (the Ritz brothers) decided to impersonate them, wearing their uniforms and swords. Then they will have to participate with d'Artagnan in many exciting adventures in order to protect the Queen of France (Gloria Stewart) and save beloved d'Artagnan Constance Bonacieux (Pauline Moore).
