故事发生在1660年的法国，国王路易（理查德·查伯兰 Richard Chamberlain 饰）整日沉湎于酒色之中，无心朝政，使臣民们生活在水深火热之中。路易有一个孪生弟弟名为菲利普（理查德·查伯兰 Richard Chamberlain 饰），史书中记载的菲利普刚刚出生便已夭折，可实际上，他被偷偷送往阿尔卑斯山的一个庄园中，隐姓埋名，生长在此。 　　国王的昏庸让内务大臣科贝尔（拉尔夫·理查德森 Ralph Richardson 饰）和火枪手队长达达尼昂（路易斯·乔丹 Louis Jourdan 饰）感到大为不满，他们决定找到菲利普，扶持他推翻哥哥的统治，登上王位。贪婪的财政大臣富凯（帕特里克·麦高汉 Patrick McGoohan 饰）早先一步找到了菲利普，他和国王一起设计，给菲利普带上铁面，投入了深牢之中。 Paris is starving, but the King of France is more interested in money and bedding women. When a young soldier dies for the sake of a shag, Aramis, Athos and Porthos band together with a plan to replace the king. Unknown to many, there is a 2nd king, a twin, hidden at birth, then imprisoned for 6 years behind an iron mask. All that remains now is D'Artagnan, will he stand against his long time friends, or do what is best for his country?

ARAMIS:
A body.
ATHOS:
I see that is a body! But where did you get it?
Aramis ignores the question, and the guides dress him in priest's garb. With the robes spreading over the big bundle added artfully to Aramis' waist, it appears he is a very fat priest; the wig and false beard the assistants give him adds to the illusion of Aramis as a wild, reclusive monk.
The sun is beginning to come up over the mountains.
PORTHOS:
He gets one day of confession each year. Today is the day.
ATHOS:
Who does?
PORTHOS:
Best not to ask. Shouldn't even talk about it.
Aramis steps onto the boat. The little priest who first joined them gets in too, along with a couple of rowers.
ATHOS:
What do we do now?
PORTHOS:
I don't know about you, but I plan to wait here.
The rowers pull the boat toward the fortress prison.
INT. FORTRESS PRISON - DAY The pink light of the new day barely penetrates the gloom of the prison. The boat carrying Aramis and the little priest reaches the gate of the prison, which reaches to the water line. As Aramis steps out, GUARDS meet them.
HEAD GUARD: Who is this, then?
The little priest remains in the boat, slumped over. One GUARD speaks to the little priest in Italian, and the little priest seems barely able to left his head; Aramis answers for him, in Italian, and the guard translates --
GUARD:
He says he's the replacement.
Aramis rattles off more Italian.
GUARD:
He says it is only one day a month when the prisoner gets confession, and the little one is too sick to move. The big one doesn't speak French either.
HEAD GUARD: Then let's get it done.
The head guard gestures to let them pass.
INT. CELL OF THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK The prisoner has used the torn Bible to make all sorts of amazing origami, invented from his own head. He looks up as he hears the door open, and sees Aramis, the priest.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK My confession day! But where is the other one?
Aramis says something in Latin -- the first words of the ceremony of absolution -- as the guards lock the door behind him and move off down the corridor.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK I know you don't speak my language -- but is the other one all right?
Please tell me he is not dead too, or I will have lost everyone.
Aramis goes on mumbling Latin mechanically, for the sake of the retreating guards. The Man in the Iron Mask is desperate for someone to talk to.
