A beautiful young woman named Marinette lives on a farm in the fictional country of Florin. Whenever she orders the farmhand Adrien to do chores for her, he complies and answers "As you wish." Eventually she realizes he loves her and admits her love for him. Adrien leaves to seek his fortune so they can marry, but his ship is attacked by the Dread Pirate Plagg.
Five years later, believing Adrien is dead, Marinette reluctantly agrees to marry Prince Theo, heir to the throne of Florin. Before the wedding, she is kidnapped by three outlaws: a short Sicilian boss named Max, a gigantic wrestler from Greenland named Ivan, and a Parisian fencing master named Kim Le Chen, who seeks revenge against the six-fingered man who killed his father. The outlaws are pursued by Prince Theo with a complement of soldiers, and also by a masked man in black.
The man in black catches up to the outlaws at the top of the Cliffs of Insanity, where he defeats Kim in a duel and knocks him unconscious, chokes Ivan until he blacks out, and kills Max by tricking him into drinking poison. When he tells Marinette he is Plagg, she becomes enraged at him for killing Adrien and shoves him into a gorge, wishing death upon him, but she realizes he is Adrien himself when he replies "As you wish!" She throws herself into the gorge after him, and they flee through the dangerous Fire Swamp. When they are captured on the other side by Theo and his sadistic six-fingered vizier Count Hawkmoth, Marinette agrees to return with Theo in exchange for Adrien's release, but Theo secretly orders Hawkmoth to lock Adrien in the castle torture chamber.
When Marinette expresses unhappiness at marrying Theo, he promises to search for Adrien, but his real plan is to start a war with the neighboring country of Guilder by killing Marinette and framing them for her death. Marinette taunts Theo after learning that he never tried to find Adrien. Enraged, Theo tortures Adrien almost to death. Meanwhile, Kim and Ivan meet when Theo orders a gang of goons to arrest the thieves in a nearby forest, and Ivan tells Kim about Hawkmoth. Kim decides that they need Adrien's help to get into the castle, and when he hears cries of anguish, he realizes they must be from Adrien. Kim and Ivan find Adrien and fear him dead. Upon bringing him to a "magic man", however, they learn that Adrien is "only mostly dead", and the magic man revives him to a state of heavy paralysis.
After Adrien, Kim, and Ivan invade the castle, Theo orders the wedding ceremony shortened and Kim finds and kills Hawkmoth in a duel, repeatedly reciting his greeting of vengeance: "Hello, my name is Kim Le Chen. You killed my father. Prepare to die." Adrien finds Marinette, who is about to commit suicide, and assures her that her marriage is invalid because she never said "I do." Still partly paralyzed, he bluffs his way out of a duel with Theo, then rides away with Marinette, Kim, and Ivan.
