Phileas Fogg was a man of independent means and is a gentleman who is "exact", as in has a perfect and a routine life right down to the number of steps he walks to the temperature of his shaving water. Fogg makes a wager of £20,000 with members of London's Reform Club that he can circumnavigate the world in 80 days or fewer.

He sets out with his French servant Jean Passepartout to win the wager, unaware that he is being followed by a Detective Fix, who suspects Fogg of having robbed the Bank of England.

Together, they have numerous exciting adventures which come to an abrupt end when he is arrested by Fix immediately upon their arrival back in Britain. Although Fogg is quickly exonerated of the crime, the delay caused by his false arrest appears to have cost him the wager.
