In this romantic adventure, a wealthy Arab sheik has a reputation for
breeding some of the fastest horses in the world. Meanwhile, the spoiled
daughter of a corkscrew magnate bets her British betrothed that she can
find a horse that can beat any nag in his stable. She and her father then
set out for Arabia to find the famous sheik. They are accompanied by her
eccentric aunt and ill-mannered cousin. The Americans are classically
ugly in their attitudes and when they meet the traditionally garbed sheik,
they mistake him for a mere porter and desert guide. To get his revenge
and teach the brutish Americans something about cultural sensitivity, he
kidnaps the girl and then leaves her alone in the desert. To add insult to
injury, he later grabs her off the alter during her wedding and marries her
himself.
