FALSE ALARMS

The Stooges are dim-witted firemen who spend all their time covering up their mistakes so they can impress their girlfriends by being in uniform. Curly sneaks out of the firehouse while on duty and joins the girls. They want him to get the other two to come over, so Curly trips the nearest fire alarm. The fire truck leaves Moe and Larry behind because they have accidentally locked themselves in a janitor's closet. They then take the Captain's car and try to beat the truck to the fire, ultimately wrecking the car.



Actual filming locations in Los Angeles include Larchmont Blvd., 3rd Street and LaBrea Ave. The story behind these locations, with then-and-now photos, are detailed in The Three Stooges Journal # 100 (Winter 2001).

Originally, there was an extended ending sequence, with the Stooges attempting to repair the Captain's car. The script for this unfilmed scene appears in The Three Stooges Journal # 125 (Spring 2008) and # 126 (Summer 2008).
