- In Arizona, Sgt. Buzz Caldwell and Cpl. Marcia Smith are surprised when a man named Arnold Barker comes into Army recruiting station they are responsible for asking for protection. He claims that he has been working in the local circus as the Human Balloon and now the Coopers want to promote him to the lead attraction and do not want to let him go. He takes his heavy shoes off and start to float in the station. Sgt. Caldwell tells that he can only protect him if he enlists the army. When the Coopers arrive in the station, they disclose a totally different story and soon Marcia and Buzz know who is telling the truth.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
- Marcia Smith and Buzz Caldwell, two Army recruiting agents, encounter a strange individual, Arnold Barker.
Arnold asks Smith and Caldwell to enlist him in the Army to escape a pair of pursuers (according to Arnold, a "ringmaster" and a "fat killer dwarf" from the circus) bent on his capture because of his ability: being able to float in air like a toy balloon.
No sooner he tells his "tale", the "ringmaster" and the "fat killer dwarf" show up at the recruiting station. As it turns out, the "ringmaster" was actually an angry father, and the "fat killer dwarf" is his young daughter who is in late term pregnancy with Arnold's baby! Arnold was actually trying to escape a shotgun wedding!
