As part of a wager, Prof. Quackenbush must turn the Stooges into society gentlemen.

7.0

By Woolsey, Jul 26, 2009

This short has some vintage predaccessors, its plot dating back to the 1935 short "Hoi Polloi" and the 1947 film "Half Wit's Holiday". This one is by far the weakest of the trilogy. Joe doesn't have a great deal of original material in this film. Much of his dialogue is repeating Curly's lines in the earlier films. His performance doesn't even begin to compare to Curly. Although some of the lines are still funny, and the rare bits of new material are pretty pleasing, especially Joe's remarks about kleptomania. Not a very original or strong Stooges short, but the vintage material still works.moreless

- It is quite obvious that Prof. Sedlitz will be hit with a pie during the ending fight because he quickly takes off his glasses moments before the pie splatters in his face. Since he had no reason to remove them, it is obviously a gag set-up.
  EDIT SHARE
- When Sappington is introducing the Stooges to the two professors, he accidentally almost says "gentlemen" but quickly changes it to "professor".
  EDIT SHARE
- A freeze-frame is used when Sappington pulls hismelf up off the floor after being trampled by the Stooges.
