After a dishonest transaction with the dictator, Brutus is taken to be executed. He replaces the bullets with blanks and the dictator's troops, awed by his miraculous escape from death, accept him as be their new ruler. Proclaiming himself as Emperor Jones, he begins to loot the country, sending the money away to prepare a wealthy retirement.
