Paris-educated Sheik Ahmed Ben Hassan provides brides for wealthy Arabs. The high-spirited Lady Diana Mayo, learning that the sheik will be in the city of Biskra, Algeria, playfully decides to disguise herself as a dancing girl to become one of the prospective brides, yet is unable to go through with the deception -- much to Ahmed's amusement. Hearing that Diana will be touring the Sahara Desert, Ahmed abducts her, intending to make her fall in love with him.
