Featuring Ted Healy and His Stooges
81.9 min. (Feature Film)
Letty Morris is a New York dancer who escapes the advances of gangster 'Legs' Caffey by jumping a cross-country bus to Hollywood. Legs learns of her plans and boards the same bus. Along the way, they pass a penitentiary where fugitive Paul Porter makes his escape. During a stop-over, Porter takes a seat on the bus and immediately falls for Letty. Legs soon figures out who Porter really is and threatens to turn him in, but after realizing Letty is in love, relents and allows Porter to escape. Detective Daly catches up with Letty and travels with her, waiting for Porter to rejoin her. Porter steals the bus during an overnight stop and Letty joins him. When Porter happens upon a busload of school children caught in a dangerous snow storm, he risks all to save them.
Healy costars as an overbearing passenger, while the Stooges ride along as vaudeville performers The Three Julians.
Healy stooge Red Pearson can be spotted in the bus scenes as a sailor passenger.
Robert Montgomery is the father of Elizabeth Montgomery (BEWITCHED).
