The boys get thrown into prison, in the hopes of finding convict # 41144, whom they believe to be "an honest man." Upon finding their man, they attempt to break out of prison by painting the prison uniforms to look like guard uniforms, except they forget to paint the backs of the uniforms.
In a lighter moment, Larry attempts to put the next "rock" on top of Curly's head. Curly looks straight at the camera and says,..."HEY!!!,..That's a REAL ONE!!!,..I'm no fool!!!".... Both Moe and Larry can be seen to smile. One of their best !!! Often regarded as an unscripted moment, that is not the case. Curly's comment, as well as a stage direction for Moe and Larry's reaction, are scripted and appear in Jules White's final shooting script.
