Boxer Joe Pendleton flying to his next fight crashes...because a Heavenly Messenger new on the job snatched Joe`s spirit prematurely from his body. Before the matter can be rectified Joe`s body is cremated; so the celestial Mr. Jordan grants him the use of the body of wealthy Bruce Farnsworth who`s just been murdered by his wife. Joe tries to remake Farnsworth`s unworthy life in his own clean-cut image but then falls in love; and what about that murderous wife?
