Set in a whimsical interpretation of the classic tale, The New Musketeers follows the misadventures of the Musketeers' bumbling servants after a shipwreck leaves them in charge. With their masters lost at sea, these unlikely heroes must navigate a series of comedic challenges to complete an important mission. As they stumble through their tasks, they find themselves in increasingly ridiculous situations, testing their courage and wit in the process.

The plot thickens as the servants attempt to fool the king and save the day, all while grappling with their own incompetence. The story is filled with humor and charm, showcasing the characters' growth as they learn the true meaning of bravery and friendship.
