An American physicist, Peter Standish (Tyrone Power), is working in a nuclear laboratory in London near a flat he has inherited in Berkeley Square. The flat has remained unchanged from its original 18th century appearance. Peter has researched his ancestors and the flat, and he believes he will travel through time, if only briefly, to 1784. A lightning strike transports him, and he finds things disturbingly different than he expected: disease and social conditions appall him, and, in this ‘Age of Reason’, his speech, manners, and knowledge frighten rather than interest all except one young woman, Helen (Ann Blyth), the sister of the woman he's to marry. Things start to look bad for Peter when his laboratory is uncovered. He is committed to the Bethlem Royal Hospital. Before being taken away, he rushes to Helen's room and professes his love for her. While he is being taken away, lightning strikes again and Peter returns to the present. There, his friend Roger Forsyth (Michel Rennie) tells Peter he has been acting like a madman for the past several weeks. Peter is shocked when he meets Forsyth's sister Martha, who resembles Helen. He rushes out to the graveyard in front of his house, where he not only discovers Helen's grave, but that she died of grief shortly after he was taken away to the asylum.
