"I haven't a new dress since we've married!"

"Well, we've only been married five years." - Larry

This classic Three Stooges short (because it contains a lot of famous gags they liked to do) also features two big actors who were favorites with them: Vernon Dent and Bud Jamison. Those guys were always a hoot, especially Jamison, although Dent was in more of the pictures. They usually wound up chasing the Stooges after the latter had done something to them. In here, it's ruin their shoes and clothes as the Stooges sell a product (Brighto") that destroys things, not helps, as advertised. This is supposed to be medicine, but it takes the paint off cars! Who would drink this stuff?? (you can guess).

Anyway, the boys wind up trying to peddle the deadly juice (and hilariously work the PA system) in the "Los Arms Hospital," where one guy is in there for "dandruff." Don't ask.

At the beginning and end are sleeping scenes with the Stooges that should get some laughs out of you. The quote at the beginning was when one of the wives (who all worked while the Stooges slept until 11 each day, ate breakfast and then went back to bed!), had had enough and the boys were threatened to find work or forget the marriages.

It's all lunatic fun and represents the Stooges in their peak years.
