Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe finale in the film, where Stan Laurel retaliates against Oliver Hardy, was inspired by Stan's daughter Lois Laurel. . After Lois had seen so many movies in which Ollie mistreated Stan, she became fearful of Ollie (known to her as "Uncle Babe"). So Stan decided to write a scene that showed his character could stand up for himself. After that, Lois got along just fine with Ollie.
- GoofsThe opening titles claim Stan and Ollie's Model T Ford is a 1911, but it actually the 1921 model, which they've used in other shorts as their trademark car.
