Abbott and Costello want to earn some money in a Middle American country by performing a magic show ... instead Costello is mistaken for the president of the country. Then he meets the real president, and each is calling the other an impostor. Finally, both are put top the test, and wouldn't you know it, against all odds the test proves that Costello is the real president ... which was all of course a trick by the (actual) president's men to employ Costello as the president's new double as several people plot the president's assassination. What follows is a sequence of tried and true (but not particularly funny) assassination jokes.

 

Some moderately funny jokes can't hide the fact that Abbott and Costello were just second-rate comedians (especially Abbott, who doesn't even attempt to be humourous) and by the mid-1950's past their prime, and many of their sketches which are at first quite amusing are milked dry to a point where they are only annoying. Most of the prominent guest stars like Jane Russell and Rhonda Fleming are totally wasted in pointless musical numbers. The musical number by child xylophonist Baby Mistin though is nothing short of odd.
