Skullduggery in a fictional Arab country caused by the regent Ben Sharib has Sam proposing that Joe impersonate the young heir to the throne, with Mac posing as the prince's tutor.
While efforts are being made by Shane Weston to free the real prince, suspense builds as Joe's impersonation must work, with our yung hero aided by wearing his special glasses that connect him with the stored brain patterns of the real prince. An amusing element is provided by the regent's henchman Salim, who speaks with an accent and voice reminiscent of Peter Lorre (circa "Maltese Falcon") with his distinctive obsequiousness.
The sets depicting the king's palace and lots of nifty models add to the segment's atmosphere, and later Joe is also kidnapped, upping the ante of danger.. Fortunately Joe is saved in the nick of time by Mac and Sam, while patented explosion takes care of the megalomaniacal villain. An interesting wrinkle at the end has Joe (and the other Brits) heartily endorsing the local monarchy that WIN's efforts have saved by aiding the prince to successfully accede to the throne.
