When the two boys meet, they are enchanted by the others tales of their daily lives and the plot to swap lives is born. While the prince is collared by Tom's father, Tom becomes more and more worried that their plot will be discovered and that he will be taken to task. Tom's blunders as he encounters the royal family make them fear for his sanity. Tom begins to learn to cope with his new environment.
