Prepare to discover the crazy truth behind Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder plot! King James I and his transvestite secret agent Lady Domina are organising the most wicked conspiracy in the history of England... Knowing how unpopular he is with his subjects, the stakes are high for the flamboyant King of England to eliminate the Lords who oppose his extravagant rule. He entrusts the mastermind transvestite Lady Domina to recruit not only the outlaw Guy Fawkes but also a lesbian assassin maid and a gay-for-pay butler to entrap his most notorious enemy.
