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?

They reach an iron door and move through it, into A GORGEOUS, SECRET CHAPEL Candles illuminate masterpiece frescoes. The place is breathtaking.
PORTHOS:
Where are we?
ARAMIS:
Jesus of Nazareth found the holy among the profane. If we are to have a place of private prayer, where better than here, beside the channels where the sh*t and the garbage run to the river?
Porthos notices niches in the walls; he looks closely and sees the face of a corpse, enclosed behind glass.
PORTHOS:
Mother of God!
ARAMIS:
It is also a place of burial.
PORTHOS:
A tomb? We're in a tomb?
ARAMIS:
Catacombs. Very holy.
Porthos looks as if the bodies could resurrect at any moment -- then jumps out of his skin as the door opens.
PORTHOS:
Yaaaahhh!
A hooded figure, looking like the Grim Reaper, enters.
ARAMIS:
Relax, you big fool, it's d'Artagnan.
And sure enough the hooded figure, whom we now see has been led in by a little monk, is d'Artagnan. Aramis nods to the monk, who leaves quickly. Before d'Artagnan can ask anything, Porthos jumps again; the back door has opened, and monks usher in Athos, who freezes as he sees d'Artagnan.
ARAMIS:
It's all right. D'Artagnan was the one who warned us that he'd been given an order for your arrest.
Here you have sanctuary -- does he not, d'Artagnan?
The escort monks disappear, closing the chapel door so that the four Musketeers are left to sit at a small table the monks have set up, Athos and D'Artagnan opposite each other.
ARAMIS:
Look at us. We are old men now. But once we were young. And when we saw injustice, we fought it.
D'ARTAGNAN We have grown wiser with age. Now we know that some problems cannot be settled with a sword.
ATHOS:
And some problems cannot be settled without one.
ARAMIS:
Well here is the problem at hand: the King has ordered me to discover the identity of the Governor General of Jesuits, and kill him. As our English rivals have left the Catholic Church, Louis has struck on a plan to dominate the whole of Europe by uniting Church and State and making himself head of both. He has already picked the Pope. Only the Jesuits, who put God above throne or papacy, stand in his way.
PORTHOS:
But -- doesn't God ordain both Pope and King?
ARAMIS:
So they tell us. But what are we to believe when the king is a tyrant, and the Church, meant to stand for all those oppressed, has become the tool of oppression? When no conscience is tolerated? No dissent, no objection?
PORTHOS:
It is a weighty problem, Aramis -- but perhaps you should leave it to this secret General of the Jesuits, whoever he might be.
ARAMIS:
Easy to say, but hard to do. For what I am trying to tell you is that I am the Governor General of Jesuits in France.
A stunned silence.
