STUDIO STOOPS

The Stooges are exterminators mistaken for B.O. Pictures' publicity department. In order to make the studio's lovely new actress famous overnight, they come up with a plan to fake her kidnapping, but some gangsters overhear them and plan to make it real. It's up to the Stooges to rescue Miss Devore themselves, when the Police Captain dismisses their story as just a publicity stunt.

The best gag of the short may be Shemp hiding in a garment bag in the hotel room closet. He manages to get out of the closet and wanders through an amazing unbarricaded French window onto the narrow ledge surrounding the hotel on the 14th floor. This gag was adapted from Buster Keaton's SO YOU WON'T SQUAWK (Columbia 1941).

CALLING ALL CURS

The Stooges are veterinarians treating a rich lady's dog Garcon. Two men, posing as reporters, come to check out the Stooges' clinic. They are really dognappers who capture Garcon and hold him for a $2000 ransom. The Stooges then search for Garcon and arrive at the home of the dognappers. The boys thwart the villains and find Garcon in a closet with puppies.
