Frank Sinatra is joined by Joey Bishop, Sammy Davis Jr., and Nancy Sinatra in a welcome home salute to Elvis Presley, just out of the army. Songs include It's Nice to Go Traveling - Sinatra / Witchcraft - Sinatra / Gone With the Wind - Sinatra / Fame and Fortune - Elvis / Stuck On You - Elvis. The highlight is when Sinatra and Elvis, side-by-side, start doing each other's songs, Sinatra performing Love Me Tender while Elvis does Witchcraft. Sammy Davis Jr. does a series of celebrity impressions (including Nat King Cole doing When Somebody Loves You, and Cary Grant at the Oscar presentations) and he and surprise guest Peter Lawford square off in a dance competition. Frank and Nancy duet together, and Nancy dances to Young At Heart.
