Who is the Scarlet Pimpernel?  Hero?  Bored playboy?  Foolish adventurer?  In this adaptation of the novels, the Scarlet Pimpernel has become a thorn in the side of the French government.  France sends her enemies to be executed under the blade of Madame la Guillotine - but the Scarlet Pimpernel keeps rescuing them!  Citizen Chauvelin vows to unmask the dashing and heroic Pimpernel and travels to England to discover the disguised man.  In London, fashionable fop Sir Percy Blakeney and his brilliant wife, Lady Marguerite Blakeney, stand between Chauvelin and his goal.  In their battle of wits and swords, Chauvelin, Sir Percy, and the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel may destroy Marguerite as she faces Chauvelin's blackmail, a brother's intrigue, and her husband's deceit.  One wrong choice and someone Marguerite loves will die.  Adventure, romance, betrayal, and sword fighting - it’s all here as Percy and Marguerite navigate the treacherous waters of the French Revolution... and marriage.
