Plot:
To rescue the small country of Freedonia from bankruptcy, Mrs. Teasdale agrees to donate $20 million if Rufus T. Firefly's appointed its new president. Firefly is a cynical, sarcastic dictator who refuses to play politics by the book (he does reduce workers' hours - by shortening their lunch breaks) Firefly attempts to win the hand of Mrs. Teasdale, as does Ambassador Trentino of the neighboring country, Sylvania. When the 2 leaders cannot resolve their dispute over the wealthy dowager, war between the countries is declared, and Mrs. Teasdale's house comes under attack. Who will save the day?
