Been watching Stooge shorts in bulk and in order and I stand by my original review of this short. There is an extreme drop off in quality with this short compared to what came before. Maybe a little better than my 4/10 mark (which is why I stopped rating, can't qualify with numbers), but not much.
Also, a sign of getting older. I'm 40 now, started watching The Stooges in my adult life in my early twenties. Back in my twenties, I never noticed Bess Flowers. Never thought she was ugly, just never gave her much thought. These past few shorts and in current viewing I'm finding her fairly attractive, datable even if I had a time machine. Look up her bio, it turns out she's my age when making these late thirties shorts. Funny how that works.
