Boxer Joe Pendleton, flying to his next fight, crashes...because a Heavenly Messenger, new on the job, snatched Joes spirit prematurely from his body. Before the matter can be rectified, Joes body is cremated; so the celestial Mr. Jordan grants him the use of the body of wealthy Bruce Farnsworth, whos just been murdered by his wife. Joe tries to remake Farnsworths unworthy life in his own clean-cut image, but then falls in love; and what about that murderous wife?
Boxer Joe Pendleton is on his way to the championship but fate intervenes. While flying his small airplane it crashes and he finds himself en route to the ever after. Theres only one problem: he wasnt supposed to die and was meant to survive the crash. Due to a mix-up and a bit of inexperience on the part of Messenger 7013 who was sent to collect his soul, the man in charge, Mr. Jordan orders him returned but its too late: Joes manager Max Corkle has already had his remains cremated. Mr. Jordan agrees to find another body for him to inhabit and after a week or so of searching suggests Bruce Farnsworth, a multi-millionaire who is about to be killed by his scheming wife Julia and his secretary, Tony Abbott. Joes not too keen on the choice until he meets Bette Logan and decides to become Farnsworth at least temporarily. Hes a good man and reverses a swindle Farnswworth had committed but his time as Farnsworth was never meant to be permanent. He and Bette have fallen in love however and Mr. Jordan has plans for them.
