Easy falls for a girl who turns out to be the princess of Nikkateena. Rescuing her from the unwanted attentions of Count Heyloff, he escorts her back to Nikkateena. Heyloff follows and arranges a war between Nikkateena and a neighboring country, hoping to get Easy killed and to blackmail the czar into making the princess marry Heyloff. But Easy becomes a war hero instead, and turns the tables on Heyloff, who is killed as a traitor. Overwhelmed by the hero worship of the citizenry, he hops a freight train out of the country.
