J.B. Matthews is president of a railroad and is getting sick of doctors, when he falls off his train, and meets up with a pair of hoboes, King and Napoleon, who show him how to enjoy life, and real cooking. It's up to intrepid reporter Jimmy Dugan and Helen to find him, and bring him in. The hope is that they do it before a rival ruins him. However, time is running out.
