    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Grace Goodall (Mrs. Richmond) had a near-fatal choking accident during rehearsal of a food fight scene, which never completed filming for this reason.
    • Goofs
      As the Professors Nichols and Richmond leave the restaurant, Nichols says he will hail a cab for the both of them. Yet, after meeting Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly Howard a minute or two later, Richmond invites them all into his car, parked right next to the Stooges' rubbish truck. Possibly the result of a deleted scene.
    • Quotes

      Moe: [reading] "See the deer. Has the deer any doe?"

      Curly: Yeah, two bucks!

    • Alternate versions
      A 2004 computer-colorized version was created, but not given a normal "Three Stooges set" release. As of now, it is only available as an extra feature on the DVD of the 2004 film Breakin' All the Rules (2004).

      Edited into In the Sweet Pie and Pie (1941)

    Pygmalion meets the Stooges
    Another great show with lines I've quoted since I was a kid. "Does the deer have a little doe?"...
