During the California Gold Rush, 14-year-old orphan Jack (Bryan Russell) hides on a ship going from Boston to San Francisco, determined to strike it rich. On board the ship, Jack is accompanied by his protective butler (Roddy McDowall), a thieving judge (Karl Malden), and a classical actor (Richard Haydn). When the judge steals a gold mine map from the actor, the others pursue him across California in a series of absurd adventures featuring creative disguises, ridiculous battles, and elaborate escapes.
