Moses is threatened with eviction from his hovel, unless he can come up with five crowns in three days.

The next day, a play is planned at the castle. Tom, Moses and DeeDee hatch a plot to sneak into the castle and rob the guests of the play. They plan to use some of the money they steal to save Moses' Hovel.

Everything goes smoothly, until the trio need to get out of the castle. All does not go to plan, and the outlaws soon find themselves on a life or death chase through the castle.

Luckily, DeeDee (Lady Devereux) saves the day by taking them down a secret passage out of the castle.

In the end, they manage to gain seven crowns, but Moses decides that he would prefer to live in the crypt (it is, after all, rent free).
