The film follows George, Elliot and Sedgewick (Pa Grape, Larry the Cucumber, and Mr. Lunt, respectively), three layabout waiters who work at a pirate-themed dinner theater. After they accidentally destroy part of the restaurant and get fired, they come across a strange golden ball...which teleports the three back in time to the 17th century.

** The audience knows from the opening scene that the attack on ''The Steadfast'' and Alexander's abduction were Robert's doing. Eloise and company don't learn this until later on; all they have to go on is the cutlass Robert left behind and they don't realize who it belongs to. At the bar, Jolly Joe recognizes the sword, and Eloise is rather disconcerted to learn of her uncle's involvement.
