But Tyler is a B-list American actor struggling in his acting career while taking on a job as a butler for a real british gentleman. Floud is highly impressed with Tyler that she decided to return to the States with Arthur as he begins his job as her new butler in New Mexico. Tyler readily takes the job as he needs the money.

Getting used to being in the old west, Tyler has a run in with Cart Belknap. Belknap is smitten with Agatha after a brief meeting with her and only want her for himself. Belknap assumes that Tyler is some royal figure from England that is trying to take Agatha away from him and is fuming over the matter. More problems come to surface as Tyler is deemed as a Earl according to the towns people and is treated with great respect. Tyler is also egged on to greet President Teddy Roosevelt since everyone thinks this will bring more popularity and attention to the town when the president meets a regal man. Can Arthur maintain a status as living in royalty when he actually has no ounce of it in him?
