Released March 16, 1946
Featuring Moe, Larry and Curly
Monogram
74.2 min. (Feature Film)

Danny Warren (Phil Regan) is determined to be a success in the nightclub business, despite the protests of his uptight businessman father (Russell Hicks). Danny's club manager Moose (Ed Brophy), and stage crew (& part-time waiters) Moe, Larry & Curly, are ever-vigilant for process servers sent by Warren Sr. to shut down the club. Struggling singer Carol Lawrence (Gale Storm) is initially hired by Warren Sr. to serve a subpoena, but winds up hired as the nightclub's new talent find, and becomes Danny's new love interest. Warren Sr. reluctantly relents and attends the club's opening night, but the Stooges and Moose mistake him for a process server and throw him out onto the street. It's up to Marie Finch (Mary Treen), Danny's ex-girlfriend, to smooth things over.

The Stooges rework several bits they performed with Ted Healy at MGM: the plumbing sequences are adapted from MEET THE BARON (1933), and some of the waiter gags are borrowed from BEER AND PRETZELS (1933).
