First Admiral of the Navy, Sir Joseph, and Captain Corcoran, of the HMS Pinafore, have come to an agreement regarding the future of the Captain's daughter, Josephine. Unfortunately, she is in love with Ralph, a simple sailor aboard her father's ship. Another sailor on board, Dick Deadeye, overhears Josephine, Ralph, the Boatswain's Mate and Cousin Hebe planning for the lovers to sneak off the boat to elope and decides to tell the Captain, who is a bit confused by the bumboat woman, Buttercup, who has been trying to let him know she has a secret that could change everyone's plans!
