Francis's timely remarks get Peter hired as a highwire performer in a circus after the regular wire walker falls. After Francis foils a burglary of the circus's safe, he and Peter are rewarded but give the money to the wife of the injured performer. As they leave the circus, they seek refuge from a storm in the basket of a balloon, which breaks loose and carries them to a tropical island. There the natives worship Francis as a god and make preparations to eat Peter for lunch. However, things are not as they seem.
