Simple-minded Chance, a gardener who has lived in his wealthy employer's townhouse in Washington, D.C. for all of his life and has only ever learned through television, is forced to leave when his owner passes away. He meets business magnate Ben Rand while walking the streets, who believes Chance to be a fellow upper-class gentleman. Chance is soon welcomed into high society, and his unaffected gardening knowledge makes him a popular figure.
