James Flynn is a patient at an L.A. psychiatric hospital usually under considerable medication. He believe he is an agent for the British SIS with a license to kill. The purchase of the hospital by an HMO triggers in Flynn the belief that it has been infiltrated by the enemy so he escapes and kidnaps a female orderly named Sancho in the process. When he is mistaken for a real secret agent, delusions become real and it will fall to Flynn and Sancho to prevent an evil genius from taking over the world.
