Trivia
Of the comedy shorts that The Three Stooges released in 1955, this and Blunder Boys (1955) were the only non-remakes.

Goofs
(at around 2 mins) Larry looks into his mirror and it breaks. The rod that broke the mirror can be seen retracting into a hole in the wall.

Quotes
Shemp: [after Jane grabs his ring and hides it down her blouse]
[speaking to the camera]
Shemp: There must be way to get that ring and still avoid the censor.

One of Shemp's worst

I thought that this short was one of their worst original shorts cause during this time, Columbia was releasing a string of recycled shorts so it was rare to see a original short from beginning to end, this short does have a couple highlights like when Larry looks at a mirror and the mirror breaks or when Shemp destroys the girl's piano and who can forget the fight scene between Moe and Larry, overall this short would've been easily as bad as a Joe Besser short if it wasn't for those highlights and Moe only gets to appear in half of the short.
