Porky and Elmer are on an archeological expedition as assistants to Professor Torina. While exploring Aztec ruins in a jungle surrounded by a mysterious fog, they find a huge egg-shaped sapphire that carries a curse which hypnotizes Elmer into believing he is the descendent of an Aztec tyrant. He goes to a nearby hostile native village where the inhabitants think he is a great spirit from out of the fog. Can Porky break the curse, and shock Elmer out of his hypnotic trance and back to normal, by uttering a key emotion-stirring phrase?
