Set in 1820 Boston, dance instructor Jonathan Pride is shanghaied by pirates and forced to work as a galley boy. When the ship reaches the port of Las Palomas he escapes in pirate garb, and the townspeople—including Governor Alcalde and señorita Serafina—mistake him for the pirate chief, leading to comic mishaps.
