Politicians decide that Jefferson Smith (James Stewart), an obscure scoutmaster in a small town, would be the perfect dupe to fill a vacant Senate chair, and be easily controlled by the senior senator (Claude Rains), a corrupt career politician. Smith is full of wide-eyed wonder at the glories of Washington, all of which ring false for his cynical secretary (Jean Arthur).
