Gemeinsam überstehen die beiden zahlreiche Abenteuer, in deren Verlauf Huck lernt, daß die Hautfarbe keine Rückschlüsse auf den Charakter eines Menschen zulässt. Als Jim schließlich als flüchtiger Sklave aufgeknüpft werden soll, ist es für Huck eine Ehrensache, dem Freund zu helfen.
Mischievous Huck Finn is unnerved when his father, reemerging after years away, kidnaps him in an attempt to take away a $600 inheritance from his late mother. Fearing for his life, Huck fakes his own death and escapes. He soon runs into his friend, Jim, a slave fleeing his master. Together, the pair embarks on a raft journey down the Mississippi River, staying ahead of pursuers who blame the slave for Huck's alleged murder.
