After wounding the mother superior (Pascale Roberts), they close in on their prey. One feisty novitiate, Eloise (Sophie Marceau)—the daughter of the renowned swordsman D'Artagnan (Philippe Noiret) of the famed Three Musketeers—stands up to the intruders, but is shoved aside as they ride off after the frightened slave, who escaped from the evil Duke Crassac de Merindol. Eloise finds a blood-stained piece of paper (a simple laundry list) that the slave used to stop a bleeding wound, and believes it holds some secret code. Later, Eloise is with the mother superior when she dies from her wound.

The enraged d'Artagnan is determined to take revenge and will eventually have the chance to do so, for the Queen has given a present to her secret admirer the Duke of Buckingham, and d'Artagnan must retrieve it from him, although he is now already back in England. If he fails her, Cardinal Richelieu is going to disclose Queen Anne's infidelity to King Louis XIII, in order to force a war against England upon him. The Cardinal and Count de Rochefort will do everything in their power if only they can put paid to d'Artagnan's mission. But with help from his three new friends d'Artagnan prevails.

Première époque — Les Ferrets de la reine Au XVII siècle, le jeune D’Artagnan quitte sa Gascogne natale pour Paris où il va postuler auprès du capitaine des mousquetaires, M. de Tréville, une connaissance de son père. Sur son chemin, il a une altercation avec un mystérieux individu qu’il a aperçu s’entretenant avec une non moins mystérieuse jeune dame blonde et on lui dérobe la lettre de recommandation destinée à M. de Tréville. Engageant Planchet comme valet pour continuer sa route, d'Artagnan arrive à Paris, vend son cheval boiteux et se rend à la caserne des mousquetaires. Pendant l'entretien avec le capitaine, il reconnaît son agresseur et le poursuit pour se venger. Mais dans sa course, il s'achoppe successivement à trois mousquetaires, Athos, Porthos et Aramis. Comme l’exige la coutume des mousquetaires, bien que les duels soient interdits par le cardinal de Richelieu, ceux-ci le défient pour réparation. Il accepte avec grâce, devant se battre à midi, une heure et deux heures avec chacun d'entre eux au Pré-aux-Clercs, derrière le jardin du Luxembourg. Sur les lieux de leurs affrontements, les quatre hommes sont surpris par les gardes du cardinal et pactisent alors pour les combattre. Vainqueurs, les trois mousquetaires et d’Artagnan deviennent amis, s’étant reconnus comme de fidèles sujets de leur roi Louis XIII. Ils vont, dès lors, être les défenseurs acharnés du couple royal et, de ce fait, devenir les ennemis jurés du cardinal et de ses nombreux sbires, dont le comte de Rochefort, le capitaine des gardes du cardinal, et la très dangereuse autant que belle espionne Milady de Winter…
